A Trusted Nigerian Newspaper
A report by BBC Africa on President Bola Tinubu’s certificate, where it stated there is no evidence that he forged his records, has been found to be flawed.
According to FIJ, it had fact-checked Tinubu’s academic profile after the Chicago State University released his academic records to Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party , in early October. Of particular interest was the expression, ‘with honors’, which appeared on the certificate Tinubu submitted to INEC. None of the 1990s samples provided by CSU showed those words underneath the course of study, and this suggests that Tinubu’s certificate, which was supposedly obtained within the same timeframe, did not emanate from the school.
However, from the samples provided by CSU in its deposition, certificates issued in the 1990s did not include the expression ‘with honors’. The BBC also clearly states in its report that “any request for a new diploma would resemble the current template at that time, no matter when the student graduated”. This renders BBC’s verification of Tinubu’s 1990s certificate with one issued in the 2000s illogical.
