Two years ago, it became public
knowledge that the All
Progressives Congress (APC)
Governor of Ogun State, Senator
Ibikunle Amosun’s claim that he
bagged a Master of Arts (M.A.)
degree in International Finance
from the University of
Westminster, United Kingdom
and his actual date of birth were
questionable.

No concrete response was
provided to the allegations then
by the governor, and as a fallout
to the crisis presently rocking the
APC in Ogun State, the allegations
are set to be brought to the fore
again.

Sources have revealed that the
allegations of forgery and perjury
against the governor will soon
be raised again by APC members
loyal to former Governor of Ogun
State, Chief Segun Osoba and his
erstwhile Deputy, Senator
Adegbenga Kaka.

“New petitions are going to be
raised on the alleged forgery and
perjury,” a source said.

One of the sources said; “this
time around, we will pursue the
issue to a logical conclusion.”

Prior to the 2011 governorship
election,severa l petitioners
from
Ogun State had questioned
various claims made by the
governor in his profile filed with
the Independent National
ElectoralCommis sion (INEC), and
called for a full investigation and
possible criminal prosecution.

Amosun had claimed in his
election documents presented to
INEC the possession of a Master
of Arts (M.A.) degree in
International Finance from the
University of Westminster, United
Kingdom.

However, investigations at the
university shown that the
institution offers only a Master of
Science (MSC) International
Finance, not an M.A.

Also, an enquiry at the Evaluation
and Accreditation Department of
the Federal Ministry of Education,
Abuja through a letter on May 3,
2011, informing the Ministry of
suspicion on the authenticity of
the certificate presented to INEC
by Senator Amosun on his M.A. in
International Finance from the
University of Westminster in
2000 revealed that the University
of Westminster does not offer
Masters of Art in International
Finance.

Replying, on May 13, 2011, in a
letter signed by A.O Adigwe on
behalf of the Permanent
Secretary, Federal Ministry of
Education, the Ministry confirmed
that the University of
Westminster offers only the “M.Sc
(Master of Science) in
International Finance, but added,
“There must have been a gross
error in the issue of M.A (Master
of Arts) International Finance to
Mr. Ibikunle Oyelaja Amosun.”

Other claims questioned in
Amosun’s avalanche of claims
include:
· Earlier study by the Governor.
· His date of birth, of which there
seem to be two, and
· His National Youth Service Corps
participation.

In his Certificate of Registration
of Birth number 242484 issued
by the Western State of Nigeria,
issued on November 18, 1976,
Governor Amosun’s date of birth
was entered as January 25, 1958.
Also, in the profile he submitted
to INEC, Amosun maintained that
he was born on January 25,
1958.

However, in his Ogun State
Polytechnic, Abeokuta Student
Registration/ Personal Data File
completed in his own
handwriting, Governor Amosun
claimed that he was born on
January 25, 1960.
On his technical study claim,
Amosun claimed to be at the
Ogun State Polytechnic, Abeokuta
between 1979 and1983 for both
the Ordinary National Diploma
(OND) and Higher National
Diploma (HND) is being
questioned.

Those who raised posers on the
governor’s claim said; “This claim
appears false in that between
OND and HND there was a year
mandatory internship students
must observe. Could it then be
that he did not serve the
mandatory one year? Because if
he did, his year of graduation
should be 1984 not 1983.
“In his CV, he claimed to have
done his internship at Ogun/
Osun River Basin Authority in
1982 (6 months) and at Nigerian
Television Authority (NTA) in
1981 (6 months).

“From this claim, what Amosun is
saying was that he was in school
simultaneously while doing his
internship?”
“In a few days time, we will
begin to ask questions as to the
actual date of birth of the
governor, the veracity of his
claim on his Master of Arts (M.A.)
degree in International Finance
from the University of
Westminster, United Kingdom
and the actual period that he
attended Ogun State Polytechnic,
Abeokuta (now Monshood Abiola
Polytechnic).

“Definitely, we are going to fight
him ditty and we won’t retreat
until we get to the bottom of the
matter, ” one of the aggrieved
APC members said.

Lol. Season of Anomy.

I will post my observations later.

That's the more reason why Jonathan is the most corruption-personified president ever in Nigeria

dumb response to Stella's case of forgery

The era of exposing documents' falsification. Many politicians are guilty of this. I wish they will all go down.

I predicted from the outset that APC will implode in Ogun State. Amosun and Osoba are two egocentric people that can never get along.

Besides, Amosun is, and has always been a fraud. No one knows till today how a supposed former auditor with Arthur Andersen suddenly became one of the state's richest men in his 40s as at 2003. Akintola Williams has been an auditor almost all his life and cannot boast of the wealth this guy possesses before he became governor. Lastly, while in Ogun State Poly, Amosun was a well known frat boy.

First things first, Governor Amosun got his MA in 2000 according to a SR.

Another high-level certificate scandal, which could send Governor-Elect Ibikunle Amosun to jail, is brewing in Ogun State.

Several petitioners from Ogun state have questioned various claims made by the Governor-Elect in his profile filed with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), and called for a full and urgent investigation and possible criminal prosecution.

The Senator had claimed in his election documents presented to INEC the possession of a Master of Arts (M.A.) degree in International Finance from the University of Westminster, United Kingdom, but investigations at the university have shown that the institution offers only a Master of Science (MSC) International Finance, not an M.A.

Also enquiries at the Evaluation and Accreditation Department of the Federal Ministry of Education, Abuja through a letter on May 3, informing them of its suspicion of the authenticity of the certificate presented to INEC by Senator Amosun on his M.A. in International Finance from the University of Westminster in 2000.

Replying, on May 13, 2011, in a letter signed by A.O Adigwe on behalf of the Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Education, CEJUDE said the Ministry confirmed that the University of Westminster offers only the “M.Sc (Master of Science) in International Finance, but had added, “There must have been a gross error in the issue of M.A (Master of Arts) International Finance to Mr. Ibikunle Oyelaja Amosun”.

“Accordingly, it is either the Federal Ministry of Education is pumping out a tissue of lies or that Senator Ibikunle Amosun, Governor-Elect, Ogun State has put forth to the electorate what he does not have and deserves to be diligently investigated and prosecuted for forgery and perjury, before May 29th, 2011, when he would have put forth the toga of immunity has provided by the Constitution of our land,” a source told SaharaReporters

This appears to tally with the FOI request attached here.

It is perhaps also worth noting that SaharaReporters, which some would have us believe is an opposition mouthpiece, ran with this story in 2011 - 'Forgery And Perjury: Petitioners Call For Investigation And Prosecution Of Ogun State Governor-Elect, Senator Amosun'

Still checking...

Why did he bother with physics and chemistry at 0 level?

Yeh! As in seriously


This is GOBE o...

following,




























u go fear counter-attack

Bizzare!!

This kind of personal attack politics is totally useless. Wait for politicians, you don't like at the polls. Amosu, Oduah, Goodluck etc, should not be attacked like this. Let's not turn our politicians into imams and bishops, guess what, they are not.

@OP go get a life...Ogun state has never had it good like this...SIA is the best they have ever had..Haterz will try and bring him down but he will always be ballin!

Am tired of this 'bring him/her down' politics. From Stella Oduah to Amosun.....damn!. They should rather meet him at the polls and vote him out instead of this. This applies also to the dimwits attacking GEJ and Oduah.

I wonder if people really know what they want...We all earnestly yearn for a change, the change comes and we start complaining againing...Amosun is doing a great job in Ogun state, why bring him down? He who God has blessed, no man can curse!

APC team how una dey! Stella Oduah don pass her own baptismal fire it is Amosun's turn , una neva see anything

APC is a fraud and all the supporters are blind sheep being led to slaughter.

Look how they have stood solidly behind a governor who forged his way into the government house.

All the APC e rodents have kept silent.

No one is here to condemn this criminal act.

Bigots!

srone: I wonder if people really know what they want...We all earnestly yearn for a change, the change comes and we start complaining againing...Amosun is doing a great job in Ogun state, why bring him down? He who God has blessed, no man can curse!

tomakint: APC team how una dey! Stella Oduah don pass her own baptismal fire it is Amosun's turn , una neva see anything

APC is a pathetic party made up of
Child hawking enthusiasts that tell widows to "GO AND DIE"

Certificate forgers

Rascals who indulge in self praise.

Billion naira contract inflators under the shackles of Tinubu dynasty.

Rusted roof government house dwellers.

Clueless village headmasters that are not even politically relevant.

Did I miss anyone?

Please do the needful

I never liked that Amosun guy. I knew his trademark highrise caps must be hiding something sinister.
Like Stella, like Amosun....God help us!
My humble submission

You are the one that is trashy @ birth till date because. their is no evidence to bark this allegations up.Let the law court judge the case then we can know if it is true or false.wait o, are you a learner!definitely,you are

Oh, so you knew this was possible, particularly in a situation when you know there's a heavy dubious funding, now you know that anything is possible? Lol... Same applied to Oduah's case so weep not.. Na Nigeria we dey so.
