Fresh Court Documents have indicated that the Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Ahmed Tinubu may be disqualified from the 2023 Presidential Elections.
According to West Africa Weekly, Tinubu was recently dragged to a Federal high court in Abuja by a lawyer and civil advocate Barrister Mike Enahoro-Ebah for allegedly committing Perjury in his Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Form EC9.
Information contained in the court documents reveal damning evidence of wrongdoing by the APC presidential candidate including document forgery, perjury and potentially even an instance of identity theft.
It was discovered that Tinubu’s INEC Form EC9 (AFFIDAVIT IN SUPPORT OF PERSONAL PARTICULARS – Particulars of persons seeking elections to the office of President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria) contained a lot of discrepancies in the aspect of his Date of Birth, Academic Records, Citizenship and Identity records.
Date Birth
Court Documents reveal that Tinubu, on his EC9, Tinubu gave his date of birth as March 29, 1952. However, Tinubu who claims to be an alumnus of Chicago State university, had a different date of birth on the university’s records.
Below is his subpoenaed records From Chicago State University as contained in Court Documents;
Furthermore, Tinubu’s EC9 contained no details of any secondary school attended in Nigeria.
Citizenship
Court documents reveal that Tinubu indicated in his EC9 form that he has no other citizenship or nationality other than Nigerian as can be seen below;
However, University records show that Tinubu registered as a ‘Black American’. It should be noted that Section 137 of the 1999 constitution precludes certain public office holders including the president, state governors and members of the Senate and Federal House of Representatives from holding dual citizenship. What is known for a fact in any case, is that if Tinubu was indeed “Black American,” i.e. in possession of U.S. citizenship, that would mean that he committed perjury by failing to declare it on his EC9.
Identity
An Academic Transcript from Chicago University which was part of Subpoenaed documents from the institution also highlighted another major problem in Tinubu’s credentials.
The transcript for “Bola A. Tinubu” from Southwest College (later renamed Richard J. Daley College), which was used to process the ex-governor’s admission into the university registered the sex of “Bola A. Tinubu” as ‘Female’ with an “F.”
This can be seen below;
West Africa Weekly reports that the University disclosed that it possessed no records that contain clear information about who exactly “Bola A. Tinubu” was. No passport, no visa, no social security card, and no driver’s licence.

What does the Law Say?
Under Section 29 of Nigeria’s Electoral Act, 2022, providing false information on Form EC9 constitutes grounds for disqualification for an election provided another contestant files a suit at the Federal High Court seeking to declare the information provided as false.
This is a welcome move, Nigeria will not continue in dark, it is time to make use of the full power of the judiciary. I pray to the court to give a straight interpretation of the law in this suit. This will also restore the hope and faith of a common man in Nigeria judiciary. Power of wealth and riches have done so much bad to Nigerian as a country in the past.
God Bless Nigeria.
In the first place, the British government is the architect of what the Biafrans and other ethnic groups, especially Southern Nigeria is suffering today. How do you expect such a government to take decision against its earlier evil roll/act played against the people’s of Southern before the unfortunate independent
Which date is the court hearing fixed?

Forgery, perjury and records falsification are definitely not acceptable. If they are sufficient grounds for disqualification, then let the law take its course. But then, they say what is good for the goose is good for the Ganda. If Buhari was not disqualified, why then should Tinubu be disqualified?
Young man, in Buhari’s time the electoral act 2022 wasn’t in place. So that’s why it won’t be proper to compare Tinubu issues with Buhari’s.
Our corrupt judiciary will still collect bribe and declare him fit for the election if all of these cases of forgery happen to be true. Nigeria judiciary structure is a flop
This man Tinubu would have been disqualified from the very first time, but bribe and I’ll fated system have made it impossible for them to disqualify him. But I believe he will pay the
biggest price for all the lies he has been lying and all he has cheated this country. “Everyday is for the thief, one day is for the owner of the house” I don’t see him leading Nigeria, as her president. She has suffered a lot, bad image, bad government, she needs a leader that will bring her back to her lost glory, certainly not Tinubu. He contributed to the woes of Nigeria, he does not have what it takes to heal Nigeria. God will help Nigeria get it right this time. You can also see that there has never been a time that Nigerians woke up from their slumber and indifference in the political setting of Nigeria than now. This goes to show that they have gotten it up to their throats. No more nonsense. Stolen wealth or not. We are taking our destinies in our own hands, no more sitting on the fence
In the light of all the damming heavy allegations against Tinubu, in a sane society, Tinubu/Shettima should have no business contesting for president, not to talk of having a single supporter, so I’ve been wandering what sort of people are giving him support to become president of federal republic of Nigeria
We are different individuals and so is our preference too. So don’t blame nor accuse anyone as we are free to make our choices. Thanks brother.
Tinubu is too corrupt and controversial to lead Nigeria . He should withdraw and rest to enjoy his ill-gotten wealth
U are a comedian
They are supporting his money you know there is so much hunger in town
It’s good you call it allegations. Any one can experience that
It’s normal in a Democratic setting
Admitted as a Female, graduated as a Male while gaining 2 years in Date of Birth..America Wonder!!!
So why sue him at the magistrate Court rather than the federal High Court as the law stipulates? And what is the interest of the lawyer suing since he’s not an aggrieved contestant?
We want more of that, by the time you people will realize what you’re doing it might be too late. More of your propaganda doesn’t move any of his supporters, it does make us waxing strong the more
A man like Bola Ahmed Tinubu will only legalise criminalities if voted in as president. Because every achievement he had ever recorded are achieved via falsehood. Bola Tinubu as an icon is dangerously corrupt and he’ll promote more corruption. Nigeria is sickly society where morality has no effect. Presently, Agberos are everywhere in Lagos state more than ever before for only one reason- 2023 election. Agbero chairpersons in Lagos state are billionaires and are ready to kill for him. Thank God, Lagos state vote does not make up to 15% of the total vote of the federation. Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Atiku jointly brought in GMB as president and are responsible for the untold hardship Nigerians are going through presently. Avoid voting for any of Tinubu and Atiku. They spent over $2billion making Buhari president. Both of them contesting as president only connotes that is time their investment on Buhari yield its dividend. If you fail to vote wisely, a bag of rice may be bought @ #150k and dollar may be exchanged for #2500. Lets bring in the “stingy man” who knows the value of money, how to manage and save money for better tomorrow. Don’t accept the future of your children as a token in bribery. A word is enough for the wise! Wise-up!
TINUBU IS THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA, MARK MY WORD
It’s a shame.
Drug barons are never clean, neither bandit sponsors. Baron +Bandit =Disaster
It is only in Nigeria that a person that has such dark past will come out to rule us God have mercy Ame
Like people are mading, dead news. They should pay for deformation of character
Tinubu will be free since the likelihood of a contestant from APC going to challenge his eligibility in court..
It does appear that’s what the electoral sct stipulates. Saaad. Sure Tinubu pushed drugs.
Indeed there was a country,
Nigeria is a big lawless country and they don’t even care but it.
This will test the power of the judiciary system in Nigeria. Awaiting the outcome
This country wahala plenty. Something it becomes so difficult to distinguish between facts and lies. But come to think of it don’t security agencies check the background of a would be candidate?
If Tinubu is actually found guilty of forgery, Drug dealings and money laundering, he should properly face the wrath of the law, no matter his wealth or position as a ruling party candidate.
Nigeria is really in a mess, enough of this tribal sentiment, let us considered what happened in Ghana during the time of Rowling’s Reign , and replicate it here, leaders outside the corridor of power are still determining how this country should be. ruled, consider late Abacha, all said and done to him, is because he was late, looters are still among us,shedding their deals by control, 2023 we need a total change of leadership mentality or revolution.
I believe God has decided to liberate Nigeria from tyrants and corrupt politicians.
Long live #Obi_datti
Some people would just deliberately peddle lies about this man-Tinubu. There mission is just to misinform d populace for political reasons & all of u would belief them. That’s PDP tactics anyway, They know they cannot natch Tinubu by all means.
Tinubu worked at high level with international companies and all his records has been verified. This allegation is fake news.
As per citizenship, one can have 2 citizenship of two countries, u only renounce the other country if u’re contesting for elective positions in Nigeria.
Tinubu supporters are unshaking by all these fake news.
Tinubu is Nigeria next president whether u like it or not.
God bless Nigeria.
