Jubilation As Tinubu’s Top Appointee Opens Up On Social Media On President’s Certificate Presented To INEC

Mr. Temitope Ajayi, the President’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, has refuted the opposition’s allegation that President Bola Tinubu’s submitted certificate to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) was forged.

Ajayi emphasized that the certificate is genuine and not a forgery, contrary to the insinuations made by the opposition. He further pointed out that Chicago State University (CSU) has officially confirmed that the president did not present a falsified result to INEC.

According to Ajayi, CSU provided sworn testimony affirming that Tinubu attended and successfully graduated from the institution, and also clarified that the school does not handle replacement of lost certificates.

In his verified statement on Twitter, Ajayi argued that there is no truth to the forgery allegation, asserting that one cannot forge a certificate they already possess.

He said, “We should be clear. In the deposition made by the Chicago State University, there was nowhere the University said the certificate presented to INEC by President Tinubu is fake. The University insisted under oath that President Tinubu graduated with honours and even at that, replacements for lost certificates are done by vendors not the University.

“The claim that President Tinubu submitted fake certificate to INEC does not make sense. A man can not forge the academic records he possesses. You can only forge what you don’t have.”

The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar had lodged a petition with the court regarding the alleged certificate forgery.

The court, in its ruling, mandated Chicago State University (CSU) to provide Tinubu’s academic records to the PDP’s presidential candidate.

Atiku had sought these documents to substantiate his claim of forgery against Tinubu.

It’s worth noting that the accusation of forgery was among the allegations that were rejected by the presidential election court in the case Atiku brought forward to contest Tinubu’s election.
