What' the use of qualification and certificate without character?
Character and learning complement each other as learning is as good as void if not earned with character (the right way) and character will fail under pressure where learning is lacking.
Atiku has been using his highly flawed character to obtain the results of a learned person all along and I don't care if he is a professor.
Jonathan had PHD but said "stealing is not corruption".

Ken4Christ:


Maybe you are an illiterate. Education helps to train your mind to think deeper. We need intelligent leaders. It takes wisdom to govern people. And your ability to make wise decision is influenced by your educational background.

LordKO:
The country simply need a thoroughly educated person as its leader, so whether such a person is well-schooled or not is irrelevant. Atiku is thoroughly educated. I will always choose a thoroughly educated man over a well-schooled man that isn't thoroughly educated, any day any time, especially in a situation whereby the former seems to be of the diplomatic ethical leanings.

Nigeriadondie:

What about Yar’ Adua with an M.Sc and GEJ with a Ph.D? What difference did they make? What we need are not people with chains of degrees here and there to flaunt but what they can offer. Take for example, Okowa is a medical doctor and d present governor of Delta state yet with all its revenue is in a mess even d health sector and nothing is being planned to revamp these areas. Our ministries, departments and agencies have been headed by so-called technocrats with an array of degree yet the entire nation is retrogressing.
Our tertiary institutions are being administered by people with chains of degrees yet rather than use it for the benefit of all they develop ingenious means timo steal, plunder and criminally enrich themselves.
The system is what matters. Creating and developing strong institutions with strong enforcement of the law to ensure order in the society as well as equality before.

In the words of Obama, Africa needs strong institutions not strong men. When u ve such, no body becomes indispensible or seem to run the show. Even when the person is no longer on the scene, things wud still function as they should.

Since it appear that the battle line is likely to be between Buhari and Atiku, I think it is important for us to start asking reasonable questions.

Please, who knows what is Atiku's highest qualification? Does he even have a first degree?

I do know it's not just about your degree but to some extent, it matters. Nigeria is where it is because we have been led by those who are not well educated.

Eyah

see people who stood against buhari's primary school certificate now protecting atiku with fuzzy logic

HAH:
Yes he has a diploma, but he employs professors in his university, he is also employing over 50000, people in different organizations with lots of them bsc, MSc and PhD holders. Stop seeing only certificate as evidence of success.

Atiku was DCG of customs, was vice President of Nigeria, this two experience is more than any certificate.

Yes certificate is good, but what you need to succeed is grace of God and has blessed atiku

TheAdvocate:
Like many of his generation, Atiku's father was opposed to the idea of Western education, and tried to keep Atiku out of the traditional school system. When the government discovered that Atiku was not attending mandatory schooling his father spent a few days in jail until Aisha Kande's mother paid the fine.[1]
At the age of eight Atiku enrolled in the Jada Primary School where he performed well. In 1960, he was admitted to the prestigious Adamawa Provincial Secondary School in Yola where he did well in English Language and Literature, struggled with Physics and Chemistry and Mathematics. He graduated with a Grade Three WASC/GCE Certificate in 1965.

Following secondary school, Atiku studied a short while at the Nigeria Police College in Kaduna. He left the College when he was unable to present an O-Level Mathematics result.[2] He worked briefly as a Tax Officer in the regional Ministry of Finance, from where he gained admission to the School of Hygiene in Kano in 1966.
He graduated with a Diploma in 1967, having served as Interim Student Union President at the School. In 1967 he enrolled for a Law Diploma at the Ahmadu Bello University Institute of Administration, on a scholarship from regional government. After graduation in 1969, during the Nigerian Civil War, he was employed by the Nigeria Customs Service.

SalamRushdie:
Lets start with Buharis Primary school cert....where is it ?

BabaRamota1980:


Shonekan had degree in Law

YarAdua had advanced degree in Chemistry

Jonathan had doctorate degree in zoology.

Which one of them has changed our situation for better?

MrImole:
Why should I care about his certificates when you don't care about Buhari's own?

Threebear:

Get this into your thick empty skull, south east and south south will never vote buhari even under duress.
I don't see him winning the north either or even the west.

GreatMahmud:
Atiku's highest qualification is DIPLOMA..Atiku has nothing i repeat NOTHING to offer Nigerians..He is a bigot!! How has he helped the ordinary masses after 8yrs as VP..

hmmmmm....I like this line of thinking. So that the wailing will be louder in 2019.

Atiku win Buhari in an Election in Nigeria?

Even the so called SE and SS will be split almost equally. The whole North including Adamawa state is Buhari for the taking. I discover this is same conversation that was going on in 2015. The guy dusted a sitting president and you are imagining a goon with so much toga of corruption hanging on him on a platform of a sectional party (no SW strong footing) will now win him while he is in power.

We are even forgetting the electoral system is being thoroughly cleaned up with electronic voting being put in place. So power of big wig politicians with 'grassroots' support is been whittled down.

I suggest we start looking at 2023 for new faces and fair competitive grounds. Atiku against PMB is no brainer. Except of course....
