The speaker of Nigeria's house of representatives, Salisu Buhari, broke down in tears as he formally resigned following press allegations of forgery and perjury.
His decision comes after days of mounting pressure during which he has consistently denied the accusations made against him.

In an emotional speech to assembly members, Mr Buhari said: "I apologise to you. I apologise to the nation. I apologise to my family and friends for all the distress I have caused them.

"I was misled in error by zeal to serve the nation," Mr Buhari said.

"I hope the nation will forgive me and give me the opportunity to serve again."

Humiliation

The BBC correspondent in Nigeria, Barnaby Phillips said the statement amounted to a humiliating climbdown for Mr Buhari, who has until now vehemently denied allegations that he lied about his age and educational achievements in order to qualify for the post.

On Tuesday, the speaker said he would step down "temporarily" to fight the allegations made in The News magazine.

The magazine has stood by its story despite Mr Buhari's threat to sue for libel.

The News said that Mr Buhari is seven years younger than he claims to be, making him too young to enter the House.

It also said that Mr Buhari did not go to the university in Canada which he says he attended.

'Never resign'

On Monday, the speaker held a press conference saying he would "never resign."

The announcement of his departure was made to a session of the House of Representatives by acting Speaker Chibudom Nwuche.

Mr Buhari's replacement as speaker will be Ghali Umar Na'aba, a 41-year-old graduate of political science from Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria.

The speaker of the house is key post in Nigeria's fledgling democracy, and fourth in the country's constitutional hierarchy after President Obasanjo, the vice-president and the speaker of the senate.

Mr Buhari had faced growing calls for his resignation over the past few days and there were reports that his own party - the People's Democratic Party - was urging him to quit.

On Tuesday, tempers flared in the House of Representatives, and proceedings were suspended as members opposed to Mr Buhari attempted to seize the ceremonial mace to prevent a motion in support of the speaker going ahead.

Welcome back. Time to liberate this country from fake "change" mongers!

This is old news

TESTMONIAL FORGERY IS NOW THE FALL OF GENERAL MUHAMADU Buhari.

Welcome bro.The heat is getting too much for members of APC.I am sure they are now regretting fielding that cerificate forger but it's too late for them.

Atleast it's better than Tinubu's teeth.

You meant Buhari is now another name for counterfeit?

So much for fighting corruption if the crusader cud forge document. Sai sapiticate forger. APC, change for evil.

Mr Salisu Buhari was a Speaker Under PDP

He was a disgrace....

Ths same Salisu Buhari was appointed as a Member of UNN Governing Council by President Jonathan, in 2013. He is still in that position.

PDP promotes illegality, Jonathan is a con-man

APC is Change

OK

all buhari's are not to be trusted these days

Every Nigerian governmental office holder needs to be cross checked .

A lot of these politicians are fraudsters hence the reason why the nation is backward, don't heap the blame on the presidency alone .

Start from your local government chairman,counselor etc and you will see that the rot in the system can always be rectified.

Meanwhile, vote Gej, his results are verified, his transformation agenda is real.

Unlike gmb who cancelled the Lagos metro line just because it wasn't a project in the north.
