1. Act their names (wailers).

2. Close it and pretend not to have seen it and log off.

3. Close it and search for a thread where Bubu is being insulted, play active role, quoting and happily rolling with any poster with the worst insult.

It must be one of these.

You know I use to think buhari not having the minimum qualification is a political joke, until he won the election and have access to everywhere and still cant provide it..Rather he assemble about 13 SANs to defend him..I mean its very obvious.


Positive Thinking.

But Zombies of Bubu can't think beyond the first layer of their senses.

DickDastardly:
A former Attorney-General of the Federation, Bello Adoke, has explained how he allegedly came under pressure from unnamed persons to charge then candidate Muhammadu Buhari for forgery in the run up to the 2015 presidential election.
He also said that he pushed back against demands for former President Goodluck Jonathan to constitute an interim national government in the run up to the 2015 elections.
But the former attorney general said he promptly “dismissed the suggestion” in deference to the constitution and after weighing the consequences of such move at the time.
“It is true that some people came to me and said Buhari should be disqualified because of certificate forgery,” Mr. Adoke told The Cable in a recent interview. “As a man with fidelity to the Constitution, I dismissed the suggestion quickly.”
President Buhari’s certificate was a topic of nationwide controversy in the run up to the 2015 elections, with the then ruling Peoples Democratic Party suggesting that he didn’t have a valid school certificate to contest in the poll.
Although Government College, formerly Provincial Secondary School, Katsina, which the president graduated from in 1961, confirmed that he undertook the University of Cambridge West African School Certificate Examination, his political adversaries still hold that he didn’t finish from school.
The Nigerian Army, in which Mr. Buhari retired as a major-general, also published his school records, but said it couldn’t vouch for their authenticity.
The Army was accused of politicising the situation at the time.


In his interview, Mr. Adoke said he was amongst officials of the Jonathan administration that declined to pay politics with the country’s legal system and internal security.
“In fact, there were cases in court which I felt were not necessary.
“They were already becoming a security threat.
“As a responsible attorney-general, I believed we did not need further crisis in the country.
“Boko Haram was enough problem for us. I resisted pressures to compound the security challenges in the country by filing or authorising such cases to be filed on behalf of the government.
“I was not doing President Muhammadu Buhari any favour, I must say that. I was being faithful to the laws of the land. That was the duty expected of me. If you call that sympathy, so be it. But I didn’t do him a favour,” Mr. Adoke said.
He said he didn’t yield to pressure not because he didn’t have the power to file charges against Mr. Buhari, but because he could not see a tenable case of forgery against the president at the time.
“There was pressure to issue a fiat to charge him to court for forgery. But I made my position very clear that I could not see any forgery at all.
“The law did not require you to submit any certificate to INEC and Buhari did not submit any certificate.
“The law only said you must have a minimum qualification of so so and so.
“Therefore, where was the forgery? If he didn’t submit a certificate, where was forgery? There is no police report, no investigation. No responsible attorney-general will issue any such fiat based on the record before me.
“But I could have been reckless if I wanted to be reckless. I could have been irresponsible if I wanted to be irresponsible. I could have issued the fiat,” Mr. Adoke said.
But the former AGF said he recognised what could have been the consequences.
“There could have been mayhem. There could have been destruction. That could have led to the postponement of the elections.
“I know what attorneys-general have done in the past, not minding the consequences for the polity. I know what they are capable of doing. But I am a constitutional purist.
“When they mooted the idea of an interim government, I was the one that came out to say the concept of interim government is unknown to law.
“People told President Jonathan that I was disloyal, that I was working for Buhari,” he stated.


Mr. Jonathan eventually lost the presidential election to Mr. Buhari and promptly conceded defeat earning him local and international accolades.
No other official of the Jonathan administration has confirmed Mr. Adoke’s claims. The ex-attorney general also spoke in reaction to recent corruption charges filed against him by the anti-graft EFCC especially for his role in transferring over $801 million from a Nigerian government account into private accounts of an ex-convict, Dan Etete, in the famous Malabu scandal.
Mr. Adoke has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing, but has not made himself available for prosecution.

One of the thieves Tinubu said that surrounded Jonathan is Adoke. What a foolish Jonathan for trusting supporter of APC tribe in Nigeria, betrayal from Awolowo down to the least member. In the mosque, you don't know where they belong , in the church, you can't say they were Christians.

This man is sounding so desperate for a soft landing.

You are the only person with a working brain. The corrupt bastard Adoke is seeking a romance with Buhari that will earn him a soft-landing but the demented zombies are too daft to see that.

Everyone is now claiming to have refused to work against Bumhari. Even the most corrupt buffoons who engaged in monumental thievery. Reminds me of that far corrupt bastard called Aondoaka from Benue who decamped to Apc barely 24 hours after Bumhari won. grin

I'm sure if you ask him, he will tell you he looted in order to secretly donate to bumhari's election and zombies will swallow it. grin

Adminisher:
PDP supporters and Buhari certificate is so effeminate. It is like a woman.menstruating. It is a senseless, low minded, emotional , immature premised argument yet they continue to hold on to it like their lives depend on it.

The constitution does not even prescribe a certificate. It says show evidence that you are educated to this level.
The man presented advanced certificates of military and leadership training in renowned colleges but brain dead people are asking for WASC.

All certificates presented are above WASC and they are from renowned institutions abroad and to make matters even.more annoying the job itself is not certificate dependent and the man had done the same job before in 1983/84 and was cleared thrice by the INEC for three separate elections.

When Goodluck Jonathan of all people is your hero, there is something psychologically wrong with your reasoning so maybe it is not surprising that the "stolen from generation" from the South East is just lost in this self torturing stupidity about certificate.

I feel for them but it is stupid.

Really? U mean Buhari presented any certificate at all? Please could you prove that assertion?

What's new here to read? Adoke didn't say he saw or knew that Buhari has Secondary school leaving certificate. The only method to show that one passed out of secondary school is by showing one's secondary school leaving certificate.
Adoke is under investigation for authorizing the transfer of $801 million during the Malabu oil deal.

So what else does one expect from this Adoke's interview other than currying mercy from Buhari?
According to Adoke. *** He said he didn’t yield to pressure not because he didn’t have the power to file charges against Mr Buhari, but because he could not see a tenable case of forgery against the president at the time***

This is to tell you that all the shouting about certificate scandal is just a stage play to tarnish the image of President Buhari.

All I read here is an attorney general reminding how he used his position to not be a stumbling block to the now president and probably seeking a soft landing on his own issues!


Because the certificate never existed in the first place. That is why the truckload of SANs had to be deployed to "defend" the case.

Pocket lawyer, can you prove the attorney-general wrong on the above?

Can you tell me which of the required documents he didn't submit? Pls, can you tell me the essence of affidavit?

Is 2015 the first time Bubu was contesting? So, you mean he had been complying all these while and decided to violate the rule when it was clear even to the blind who the election will favour?

Your PDP members who knew about his missing cert attempted to hold him back on that, but it wasn't playing out.

Can you also tell me where he SAW the justice and did the opposite? Or you mean dancing to the biddings of the ruling party is your own understanding of justice? I doubt if you know what you just wrote. Few judges have the courage to stand against the powers that be in favour of justice.

And Buhari has not in any occasion dispelled the insinuation allegation that he does not have basic academic qualification? Are you for real? Where did you crawl out from?

Carry your idiocy out of here. Go and read the electoral act, and when it came into effect.

We are not saying that buhari is not qualified to be president, having rose through the army ranks. We are challenging his entry qualification to the military, in the first place. The law requires him to present these qualifications and he didn't present them. BECAUSE HE DOES NOT HAVE IT.

Someone seeing this your defence of buhari will be surprised with your post on Dino melaye.

Charge and bail lawyer, what does the Electoral Act say regarding requirements for election?

You are not saying Bubu is not qualified, then what is the ruse about?

Keep questioning his entry qualification into the military, perhaps that will improve your life one day, who knows.

No!! It is simplistic to assume that because he was an AG he must be correct. It's just like the position of Osinbajo on Magu.

The law is there for all to read and understand. All these bias is just foolishness.

In your heart, you will not tolerate this certificate issue with another person.
