GBAM!!!

PDP is is not thinking very well. Taking the General to court will be one of their biggest undoing and will catapult Buhari into a Hero status because, one thing is for sure they will loose this case!

People love someone that is being persecuted unfairly especially by those in power, its human nature. He must learn from his own cause when the late Yaradua died and see how much support that brought him.

Jonathan could loose these elections and will not enjoy any sympathy when it come to any charges that might come against him in future.

Jonathan needs to learn that "when one is in hole, he must stop digging"
hmmm. Mehn, i am starting to like this babe. grin .

It is obvious the man ran away from school to join the army with special priviledge back then.

No wonder he & his APCheat party puts very little real premium on education.

The question is no longer on possession of certificate or minimum requirement but that of perjury for lying on oath that his original WAEC result is with the military which has been found to be lie and such is very fundamental.

what the law implies is that any body who is contesting elections must have a "school certificate". There is no prefix (secondary, primary or tertiary) before the word school certificate so it is even wrong to say school certificate means waec or secondary school leaving certificate. School certificate is not the ONLY issue here because when you write common entrance as a primary 6 student and you are consequently graded and awarded a result it qualifies as "school certificate" same way WAEC, Bsc, LLb, NCE, OND, msc. phd, Hnd, or even a military school diploma certificate or even an Almajiri school leaving certificate will all qualify as "school certificate". We went to Law SCHOOL and we were given a CERTIFICATE in the end after we passed and that is our law "SCHOOL CERTIFICATE".
Now It behoves on the contestant seeking election to tell us that he has something that will qualifies as school certificate. So the law envisaged anything or something that "qualifies as school certificate". The law doesn't want to know how much you have studied or whether you jumped one stage to get to the other, all it requires is a SCHOOL CERTIFICATE. Even the constitution will admit a primary 6 leaving certificate as "SCHOOL CERTIFICATE" just as his military schools certificates "if any" will qualify. Buhari boxed him self to a corner by stating "WAEC" as his own "school certificate" when he has nothing to back up such. If he had told Nigerians via INEC that what he possess is a Primary school certificate and then "tendered a photocopy of same", this whole certificate miasma would not have arisen. If he had also told INEC that what he has is a "military school certificate" and then show us an authentic copy of same, there would be no questions to answer under "the law". Whatever grouse we would have with that will be morally inclined. There is no ambiguity in those sections of the law that talks about certificate of a contestant but Buhari hasn't complied. Consequent upon the amendment of the electoral act 2011 which together with the constitution is the "predicate and base" on which anything concerning elections must stand, and the provision in one of the electoral forms that asks contestants to attach photocopies of whatever "school certificate" they posses, non-compliance by any of the political gladiators seeking elective office is tantamount to putting something (ambition) on nothing. In the instant case, buhari in filling his forms said he posses "WAEC" certificate and rather than attaching a photocopy attached an affidavit. In his affidavit, he didn't say his certificates were burnt, stolen or missing, he said they are with the Military. How can he not have photocopies of his certificates and no originals and he cannot apply to any of the institution he has served or to even Waec for a photocopy or certified true copy.
If anybody can just come up to say I am a lawyer and then he is asked of his "certificate" and he cannot show one, not even a photocopy or certified true copy, that person isn't a lawyer. Now if for instance you are contesting election to be president of Nigeria tomorrow and instead of saying you have higher qualifications like a BL opts to state WAEC or LLB and you attach a copy of any of those certificates, you have passed the legal test or qualification of "school certificate". If you go on to state that you have LL.M and you have nothing to show that you have LL.M, you have boxed your self to a corner like Buhari. BuHari should have stated what he has and then attached a photocopy of such certificate be it military diploma or WAEC or master certificate. Any "SCHOOL CERTIFICATE" of which we can see a copy as evidence would have saved Buhari and Nigeria this embarrassment. The implications of Buharis actions is that he does not have anything that qualifies to be called a "school certificate". If professor Sagay has anyone, let him tender it on behalf of Buhari and let us see and this controversy that is embarrassing Nigeria will stop.
The rules of evidence say that "if it is the evidence of something that can be seen, then someone must be able to say I saw. Any other evidence apart from "I saw" will amount to hearsay. BUhari has not shown INEC and Nigerians anything as his "school certificate" and that is where the problem lies. Have you seen anything that qualifies as a "CERTIFICATE" from Buhari whether from military school or primary school or secondary school or Almajiri school? If no, how do we ascertain that "Buhari" has all the military and professional qualifications given to him by professor Sagay?

Even Though the condescending lowering of the office of the president of Nigeria to the level of "primary school certificate holders" is highly reprehensible and mediocritic, it is still the law and If anything, our constitution is one reason why Nigeria should still be regarded as a "third world country". Buhari has still not been able to comply with these "unlimited mediocrity" provisions in our laws. It is that bad.

This write up is a joke. So all I need to do is to go through the walls of a second sch and not necessary pass the examination to qualify to run for the president of Nigeria.

Then why do we need any qualifications to be the CBN gov or any other organisation. What will now be the critera to enter the NA, a recommendation letter from a principal that someone MIGHT/MAY pass his Wasc exam, why does the need to take the exams sef when he has already gone thru the four walls of the sch.

This will not hold!

Buhari should show us his certificate!

thank u for this. Ur head dey correct. I've said many times that I blame buhari for this certificate issue. Why did he use WASC as his qualification when he knows that he doesn't have d certificates? They say he went to school abroad but why didn't he use those schools' certs he obtained there? I ask myself, does it mean dat buhari does not have in his possession any certificate from all these schools he attended dat he had to use WASC? Why didn't buhari say dat his certificate got burnt,stolen,lost? Why can't buhari write to waec and get this shyt sorted out?

THE FREEDOM "MARCH" -

They said he is not electable. Now that it's time to put their claim to test, they are running pillar to post trying to stop the only test that will prove them right or wrong.

They said Nigerians love Jonathan. Now that it's time for Nigerians to show how much they love him, the are afraid to subject him to public test.

They said Nigerians want continuity not change. Now that it's time for Nigerians to speak in favor of continuity or change, they wouldn't let Nigerians make their choices.

They said he's a military despot while they are democrats yet, he want elections and they hate elections.

They said their reason for the shift is to secure Nigeria from Boko Haram. How could they make Nigeria secure enough for elections in few weeks when they couldn't secure it in 5 years?

They said he is dishonest and they are honest yet, he always keep his words while they always break their respective promises.

We said they are clueless and they said they are prepared yet, it took them a week to elections to realize Nigeria is a security mess that need the concentration of the armed forces to be cleaned at the expense of a promising general election.

They said Nigeria is safe yet, "unsafe" Afghanistan, Iraq and Sudan conducted credible elections where a "safe" Nigeria failed. Be it February or March, a bad government will remain a bad government that must be sacked. No matter how long you delay the burial of a corpse, the dead never return.

Paid write up and I'm not surprised.

What buhari is being sued for is forgery a perjury. Nigerians know he attended a secondary school but how do you proof he attended a secondary school if not by his certificate. Did he write the WASC exam at all? If he wrote the exam how do we know? It is by showing Nigerians his certificate for the public to see and if they feel like verifying the said certificate they are free to do so. It has nothing to do with whether he passed or not.

Why he's being sued is because a result was published on his behalf which looked very funny and Nigerians are asking for a confirmation of the published result. We all know where that is hanging now. He has been very crafty about this result issue by not yet admitting that the result (which is not even in his name) is his. So the case of forgery and perjury is still very strong against him, it cannot be wished away by the writer and buhari supporters/promoters.
