We have because these document released by the Katsina school bears all the features of forgery.

. . . . . . . . . . .and why haven't Cambridge released a statement that the document being circulated in Nigeria purportedly from them is not theirs?? . . . . . . . . . . . . . .they don't need any permission to issue such a statement . . . . . . . . . . .use your head for once man, why haven't Cambridge issued a disclaimer?? . . . . . . . . . . . . . .you don't know when the game is up do you?[b][/b]

Nobody can push a General around. He would authorize them in due course at his own appropriate time. Not because some silly FFK and PDP is diverting attention through the issue.

jmaine:


Invariably you are campaigning for a tyrannical General disguising as a Democrat to deceive the masses.

This is democracy, we have a right to stampede him to do the needful, any resistance shows the yelling of "CHANGE" from the APC crew is a very fraudulent one. Simply because the main actor isn't any different from his notorious history.

torkaka:


. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . it is when there is a discrepancy between [size=14pt]issuer[/size] and [size=14pt]certificate [/size]that you have a case. . . . . . . . . . . .you goons had no case all along

PointB:

How do all these fit into his image as the president of highly educated Nigerians? Wouldn't Nigerian be ridiculed as the country ruled by dullard?
I am convinced that he doesn't have it (the certificate)! No politician who knows his/her onions will allow such ridicule to fester, if he/she has the power to stop it!

Exclusive: So we went looking for the thesis and certificates of Pres. Jonathan & Sambo – this is what we found



As the 14 February, 2015 date for the presidential elections draws closer, supporters and critics of the country’s two major parties, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC) have been at loggerheads over the candidates of their respective parties.

In December, it crystallized into a debate over the academic credentials of both candidates, especially those of President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.

The president’s profile on the State House website reads thus: “He graduated with Second Class Upper honours in 1981. In 1985 and 1995 he studied for his Master’s and Ph.D degrees in Hydrobiology and Fisheries Biology, and Zoology respectively, from the same University.”

This gave him the status of being Nigeria’s most educated President ever. This was until the masses inspired by the increasing influence of social media and improved citizens participation in governance, began to ask questions.

Some began to ask, for a president with issues of eloquence and clarity of thought according to his critics, where was the evidence of his doctorate degree? For one whose campaign team has asked the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to disqualify his main challenger over the same issue of academic qualifications, wasn’t this being a proverbial case of removing the speck in another’s eyes when a log is embedded in the accuser’s?

It caused so much of a storm; we went in search of the president’s thesis.

Mrs. Victoria Boyo was Head of Department (HOD) of Home Economics at the time when Dr. Jonathan was a lecturer at the Rivers State University of Education confirmed that he was a colleague then. “He was one of those very quiet people who couldn’t hurt a fly,” she recalls. “He hardly participated in even campus politics but as far as his qualifications are concerned, I don’t know anything.”

At the departmental library of the Department of Zoology (now Animal & Environmental Biology), a dedicated two-hour search by two volunteers combing through the shelves, yielded nothing.
The resident librarian, who joined the departmental staff in 2006 says she got to the task of arranging the projects, dissertations and theses of past students at the undergraduate, postgraduate and doctoral levels as soon as she arrived. “I never once came across the president’s doctoral thesis,” she said, on condition of anonymity.

The catalog in the library was no help as it lists only theses submitted from 2007.

The entire department moved to its present location on third floor of the four-storey building that houses the entire College of Sciences in 1993 from the old Choba Park campus that at present still has the Faculty of Education. While it is possible that many copies of such documents were misplaced in the relocation, Jonathan’s could not have been among the affected ones, as he supposedly submitted it two years later, in 1995.

Another member of staff who wouldn’t want her name in print, mentioned that during an accreditation exercise and inspection tour of the school as recently as 2014, officials of the National Universities’ Commission (NUC) asked to be shown the departmental library. While inside, they asked to see the thesis of Jonathan, the department’s most prominent export ever, but it was unavailable. At the time, she says, a new HOD had just been appointed who claimed not to know the status of the missing document, leaving the NUC officials bewildered.

Interestingly, Jonathan’s Master’s dissertation obtained in 1986 in Hydro-Biology and Fisheries Biology specialization in the same course (Zoology), was also nowhere to be found – even though there are some that date back as far as 1981.

Of course, record-keeping in Nigeria is notoriously poor and many universities are yet to digitize their libraries.

Roseline Konya, professor of pharmacology and toxicology, and one-time Commissioner for Environment under the administration is currently the Dean of Graduate Studies at the university. Back in 1995, she supervised one Asim E. Eno. By virtue of the time of submission, Konya could have also supervised the President if he was a doctorate student then. Attempts to reach her proved abortive as she was “not on seat” when this reporter visited. Mails to her have been unreplied.

“Who you wan put for trouble,” someone in her office said after offering her email address, while refusing to give up her mobile number. “She will never reply you on this matter.”

Below are pictures from the thesis of one Asim E. Eno who also submitted a thesis in 1995, the same year Jonathan supposedly did his too.





The current Head of Department for Animal & Environmental Biology, Professor Florence Nduka, also could not be reached for comments as at the time of publishing this report as she was also “not on seat”.

An official enquiry submitted to the school administration has not been replied.

An extensive search online revealed a conference paper, “Identification of West African Estuarine Shrimp and Crab Larvae” which was co-written by Jonathan, G.E. with Powell, C.B. and Hart, A.I. (1985) on Aquatic Commons, the directory for publications on natural marine, estuarine, brackish and fresh water environments. At this time, the president was still a lowly lecturer in the Department of Biology at the Rivers State College of Education.

In the aforementioned 1985 paper, Jonathan self-references a publication which is in all likelihood, his Master’s dissertation. Titled “Stage 1 larvae of fresh and brackish water decapod crustaceans (excluding Natantlal) of the Niger Delta”, it is however dated 1984, two years earlier than the quoted date which is present in all his official profiles and bios. Further search on Aquatic Commons for the PhD thesis turned up no results whatsoever for the year 1995.

There were a few other conference papers online in the Web of Science journal under the name “G.E. Jonathan”. While it was not possible to determine accurately the identity of the author, they were published in 2003, 2006 and 2010 which would make him (if he were the one) a multitasker and intellectual of the highest order, combining the challenges of governance with the rigours of academic research.

No single academic journal has an online record of his research from 1985 – 1995 when Jonathan should have been very active as an academic scholar, which is why the renewed activity between 2003-2010 when he was in active politics, seems suspect.

“The first person listed is usually the author of the publication and other names are usually those of scholars or senior colleagues in the field, to give the paper weight and attract favourable reviews”, explained the Librarian. ”It is very possible that he did not author those papers.”

Have you seen the CERTITICATE?
If you have seen it, please share it with us.

We have seen the [size=14pt]CANDIDATE[/size], we have seen the [size=14pt]ISSUER[/size], but we are yet to see the [size=14pt]CERTIFICATE[/size]

Here lies the problem.

He has already stated in his press statement that [size=14pt]he was authorizing the school to release the results [/size][/b]based on the demands of his supporters.

[b]I can assure you the result will be released by Cambridge........

cuteboy2:



Why should Buhari authorize Katsina Govt College to release his result and certificate, when the right and authentic body to execute this directive is The University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate (UCLES).

And now you are assuring us "the result will be released by Cambridge". So you know the right source after all.

Did Buhari authorize you to make this lofty promise on his behalf?

Or are you the new APC publicity secretary? Have you taken over from Alhaji Lai Mohammed?

EUROBOMBER:


Shut up! No One has officially asked them to do so, they have clearly said that only Buhari can give the go-ahead for such check. What is buhari waiting for? It is very simple, buhari should officially write to Cambridge to publish his results of 1961, simple. Why is this so difficult to do and understand oga

agabusta:


You are right this is democracy, but majority of the outcry for his certificate are from those doing that just to embarrass him and spoil his chances at the polls. Infact, they even know that he indeed has this qualification, but just playing to the gallery.

He has already stated in his press statement that he was authorizing the school to release the results based on the demands of his supporters. You PDP goons has chosen your time to cast aspersions on the Peoples General, we his team will take our time as well to throw back your innuendoes at your face.

There are times a leader has to be assertive. It is not every time a leader can be stampeded into making decisions. A good leader who wants to make sterling achievements has to be both soft and hard!

Go and check history of the most successful leaders and you will see this quality in them.

I can assure you the result will be released by Cambridge at the most strategic time to the utter shame of PDP propagandists.

23 January 2015

The University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate (UCLES), now known as Cambridge Assessment, in response to requests to authenticate a candidate’s exam certificate, today said: “We can only confirm or verify results at the direct request of or with the permission of a candidate.”

“This is in accordance with the provisions of the Data Protection Act 1998 and section 40 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000.”

The organisation also confirmed that according to the Regulations for 1961, African Language papers, including those for Hausa were set for the West African School Certificate.



NOTES:

1. Examination results were classed in grades by 1 to 9. 1,2,3,4,5 & 6 indicate a Pass with Credit; 7 & 8 indicate a Pass; 9 indicates a Failure.
2. To pass the School Certificate, candidates had to pass examinations in a variety of groups. It was compulsory to pass English Language, but not Maths, in order to gain the Certificate.
3. The number of candidates who sat for the WASC Hausa examination in 1961 was 152.
4. Our records show that Hausa was set in the Northern Region in 1961.

http://www.cambridgeassessment.org.uk/news/statement-in-response-to-nigerian-presidential-election-enquiries/


Well, Nigerians has obviously been inundating Cambridge with their requests and propaganda, hence they have added additional notes as found above for clarifications.

It's there for all to see that indeed Cambridge WASC used the grades 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 and 9. And they set exams for Hausa in 1961. Infact they even provided the total number of candidates that sat for Hausa in the year in question. And for those claiming WASC does not provide certificate for candidates that did not pass maths, you have your answer there already.

Nobody can push the People's General around, I am confident at the appropriate time, he'll authorize Cambridge to release the result from source to the Nigerian public and shame all the liars.

torkaka:


. . . . . . . . . .If a document in circulation or a statement is attributed to an organisation, and the organisation knows nothing about it, they issue disclaimers distancing themselves from such . . . . . . . . . . .in this case, Cambridge is yet to deny the master list that the katsina school claims to be from them.

Fake stories from forgers to the masses.....for all I care,Buhari didn't wrote WAEC....Fabricated and well package lies....

Here come the whirlwind of CHANGE.[/s]

torkaka:


. . . . . . . . . .has the issuer denied the master list [size=20pt]purported[/size] from them??

PointB:


No problem, at least we know that:

1. We know he lied about his certificate being with secretary military board
2. He joined the army with a recommendation letter that he will pass English, Maths, and three other subject
3. We know through the dodgy result he failed mathematics and ordinary wood work
4. We know he lied about being in the same class with Shehu Yar Adua
5. We have shown that the result he presented are doctored
6. Lawyers have dragged his ass to court
7. Several Nigerians are ridiculing him social and print media for lack of certificate, etc

If he did have the result, how would all these embarrassment have helped his cause? Wouldn't it have been better if people didn't know some this about him? How does allowing this to fester help his image as "Mr. Integrity" even as election draw close?

Nowm even if it is eventually confirmed by Cambridge that he did have the result issued by Kastina board, does that in anyway help the fact that he failed Mathematics, and then proceeded to further disgrace himself by having F9 in wood work? Don't forget the news flying around that he failed all him military exams!

How do all these fit into his image as the president of highly educated Nigerians? Wouldn't Nigerian be ridiculed as the country ruled by dullard?
I am convinced that he doesn't have it (the certificate)! No politician who knows his/her onions will allow such ridicule to fester, if he/she has the power to stop it!

Buhari cannot stop this ridicule (or propaganda) because he has something to hide; perhaps something more sinister that failure in maths and wood work. Sooner or later more revelations will surface!


All these happened because Buhari failed to promptly request for his result! He is too slow, perhaps a slowpoke!

1. We know he lied about his certificate being with secretary military board

2. He joined the army with a recommendation letter that he will pass English, Maths, and three other subject

3. We know through the dodgy result he failed mathematics and ordinary wood work

4. We know he lied about being in the same class with Shehu Yar Adua

5. We have shown that the result he presented are doctored

6. Lawyers have dragged his ass to court

7. Several Nigerians are ridiculing him social and print media for lack of certificate, etc

cuteboy2:


Thanks bros.
[size=18pt]"PURPORTED"[/size] is the operating word.

Take another close look at that so-called "master list". It is issued, signed and stamped by the Principal of Katsina Govt College and the "Examination Officer" of the same school.

These same two fellows also issued, signed and stamped the phoney "Statement of Result" which is currently giving Buhari and his campaign organisation nightmares.

Why should a respectable organisation like University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate (UCLES) deny or disclaim a document issued by someone else? They don't have to.

UCLES has thrown down the gauntlet. They have placed the onus firmly in General Buhari's court.
If he is really serious about seeing his result, Buhari should contact UCLES himself, and not hide behind Katsina College.

Will Buhari take up this challenge? The answer is blowing in the wind.

. . . . . . . . . . . . .the stamp and signature matter is a no issue, when my notification of result got missing, WAEC sent a confirmation of result to my university, the university stamped and signed on it before giving me a copy with the words "certified copy", I used that document till I got my original certificate. The master list was given to the school from Cambridge, the school thereafter signed and stamped on it to acknowledge that the candidate got the master list from them. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Buhari did not release those results, the school did and they said it's from Cambridge . . . . . . . . . . . .its in the media . . . . . . . . . .hence Cambridge has every right to disclaim the document, because the legitimacy of the document was attributed to them . . . . . . . . . . . .why hasn't Cambridge disclaimed this document?

EUROBOMBER:


The Cambridge have said that only when Buhari contacts them will they act, that is what they have said. What is delaying buhari

PointB:
This explanation does not preclude the possibility that Buhari did not sit for the exam and is only parading forged statement of result. Buhari should request for his certificate/statement of result from Cambridge to put the matter to rest!

torkaka:


. . . . . . . . . . .then what are we arguing? the Cambridge statement says only a candidate, you have already agreed the candidate is Buhari . . . . . . . .oxford defines candidate as;

"1A person who applies for a job or is nominated for election: ‘candidates applying for this position should be computer-literate’ ‘the Green Party candidate’ 1.1British A person taking an examination: ‘an A-level candidate’"

. . . . . . . . . . .so inclusion, based on your statement that Buhari is the candidate, therefore he took the exam.

EUROBOMBER:


You are free to enjoy your folly!

EUROBOMBER:


Shut up! No One has officially asked them to do so, they have clearly said that only Buhari can give the go-ahead for such check. What is buhari waiting for? It is very simple, buhari should officially write to Cambridge to publish his results of 1961, simple. Why is this so difficult to do and understand oga
