A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress in Kwara, Mr Oluwafemi Yusuf, on Saturday accused the Peoples Democratic Party of a plot to distract the state’s governor-elect, Alhaji Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq, with the allegation that he forged the Senior Secondary School Certificate he presented for election.
He said there were many traps set for the APC prior to the conduct of the just concluded elections which the party eventually surmounted and expressed the hope that the current allegation would also end as an exercise in futility. “Issue of certificate scam in the country is not a new thing. We have heard series of allegations of certificate scandals aside from that of Toronto .“This is just another gimmick to blackmail our governor-elect. But I want to assure you that Alhaji Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq comes from a renowned family.
“Our governor-elect is somebody that has dealings with people around the world. So, if at this point in time somebody is raising allegation about certificate, it could be suspicious.
