Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, has criticised Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate who won the 2023 presidential election, for not addressing the “sensitive” issue of his “true identity” himself.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Obi, in a world press conference held on Wednesday, October 11, 2023, said Tinubu should have saved himself and Nigeria the embarrassment of having to rely on surrogates to defend him on the issue.
“Chief Bola Ahmed Tinubu should have saved himself and Nigeria this embarrassment,” Obi said.
“The world now see Nigerians as a fraudster,certificate forger and identity thief because of what Bola Ahmed Tinubu did at Chicago State University.”
The former Anambra State governor said, “He should introduce himself to the nation he governs, and to the world for avoidance of further doubt.
“He should let the world know his name, his nationality, his place of birth, his current age, the primary and secondary schools he attended with dates, as well as the actual universities he attended and certificates he obtained.
“He should indicate clearly when and where he did his national youth service. In addition, if he had a change of name, he should state so clearly the time and circumstances.
“This is a simple task that will only take a few minutes. It requires no affidavit, prolonged talk process, spokespersons, agents or surrogates.
“The task is only Chief Bola Tinubu himself through a direct personal statement can perform. He must perform this task urgently. He has to lay to rest many lingering doubts and speculations about his true identity.”
Obi’s comments come after Chicago State University (CSU) released documents that showed discrepancies in Tinubu’s date of birth, gender, and other information.
Obi’s criticism of Tinubu is similar to that of Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who also lost the 2023 election to Tinubu. Abubakar held a similar press conference on Thursday, October 5, 2023, in which he questioned Tinubu’s identity.
Atiku had called on Obi, the presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), Rabiu Kwankwaso, and other Nigerians to join his quest for “justice” in controversy around President Tinubu’s certificate.
Atiku requested Tinubu’s CSU certificate after suspecting the authenticity of the one Tinubu submitted to INEC.
Simple and Short
Time has come…….
obi you are a lousy misogynistic person that moves with the wind of deranged satanic lunatic public opinion. Just today, BBC just released its own investigation with CSU and the conclusion was there was no single shred of evidence that President Tinubu forged any certificate. It could have been a disaster for Nigeria if fools like you become our president cos of your low IQ with no wisdom. That’s why God Almighty ensured that you will NEVER rule Nigeria.
We can see how pained and frustrated you people are because your “Almighty” Jagaban’s hand was found in the the cookie jar. If Tinubu is not a certificate forger, please tell us the Primary School and the secondary Schools he attended. We know from the deposition in Chicago that he attended CSU but didn’t meet the requirements for graduation from the school. That was why he forged the CSU certificate. Jagaban should tell Nigerians who he truly is. You can hate Obi as much as you can. It can never change the fact that Tinubu, your mentor is a certificate forger like Mmsonma! And if Mmsonma could be punished for forging her Jamb result, Asiwaju Tinubu, the Jagaban must resign and go to jail.
So you people Wants to complete the case and give judgement before the court You are are waiting to despense judgement give it own right? This issue may not be the way we are seeing it. Did Tinubu attend CSU? yes, the officials affirms that on oath. dis the csu issues replacement for lost certificate? answer is no. Because that’s not a priority in their law. Can some secure his certificate thru a vendor, and is justified by US law? yes. There , what matters is the transcript which clearly vindicated BAT to have passed through their institution and have obtained excellent grade from their school. what is fake here? NIGERIA CERTIFICATE. USA transcript. the laws of the two countries Will come to play here. so which one is superior, US OR NIG constitution?
So in Nigeria you can graduate before your school is even established.
Peter Obi is doing the bidding of his Co Traveller to Supreme Court who persuaded him to join. Are they preempting the Court they have appealed to?
