The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomhole on Tuesday expressed doubt over the authenticity of the first-degree certificate presented by Governor Godwin Obaseki from the
University of Ibadan.
While inaugurating the APC’s screening and appeal committees for its members contesting governorship primary in Edo State, Oshiomhole said, “Someone should approach the UI and end this matter once and for all. If the certificate Obaseki parades is that of the UI, find out how did he pass senate screening of those days? I’m aware that in those days when this man never dreamt of becoming a governor, every student, no matter your status or your family name, must pass screening.
“Why are we just seeing this only in the media? Bear in mind that the Governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki, was among an elite corps of illustrious alumni of the university people to deliver a national alumni lecture in August 2018. Do you think such an institution will call someone who is not an alumnus to deliver such a lecture?”
Describing the allegations as baseless, he said, “We have said before, these allegations are baseless and come to think of it, which university did Oshiomhole attend to know what the admission process is like? The responsibility of setting guidelines for admission into a university rests on the Senate of the institution. The lecturers who taught the governors are still alive and the institution is still there.
