all of you asking for his certificate should go to hell and burn to ashes, he contested 3times, what did he present at those times ? once again go to hell and burn to ashes

PassingShot:


How many times does he need to explain what happened to his certificates?

its all they say,he says,school says...

Riclord001:

alright, i understand. u know something abt dis race? Buhari has proven that d things he can't do, he wud make up 4 them. look at the ethno-religious balance he's estabished over time with his running mates. look at d kind of man in 0sibanjo... he's not intimidated by d man's academic profile. This is d kind of balance we need... not a shoeless man working with a lame man. There may be a mathematics phobia running in the Buharis, but dont be surprised if u c a ' Chikobi' working as his special adviser on 'figures'

..And you never hailed "Chike Obi", Prof. Barth Nnaji, Diezani, Iweala that are working tirelessly with GEJ to put our economy on the right track.

Define Hypocrisy!

And the WE are?

barcanista:
Zahra, you have tweeted the minds of all Nigerians. The PDP Members are wasting their time and resources chasing shadows.

No. She has tweeted your mind and that of your family. If certificate is not an issue, why is she striving for education? Shameless father, shameless daughter. The silly girl should advise her demonic father to stop killing corpers and other Nigerians for the sake of power. In a civilised clime, Buhari and his entire family should be in jail.

and how long will it take waec to issue another one ?this issue has been dragging on now for almost 4 weeks ,which is enough time for him to get any document he wants especially in this computer age and with the situation he is in ,I am sure waec will re issue him another one withing 72hrs ,so why is he been adamant?

Boland:
Beauty with brains right here, not some

You have a point but the fact is that he has a right to believe that the statement of result with his exam number is enough for any sincere person to unearth the truth. Besides, INEC has no problems with him.

Anyone speaking against this angel is a complete iliterate .I ve taken my time to explain the difference btw certificate and statement of result. Nigerian constitution requires any one of them or a sworn document to prove is missing. Buharis certificate was vandalised by the military and is no more. Certificate is issued once in a life time. The best he could do is to write his school to issue him statement of result and the principal has done that. Agrieved persons should go to court. Seaun pls ban all this pdp e-rats disturbing our peace here. The should advice jonathan to address the core issues bothering this nation. Click like if you believe buharis daughter is inteligent more than all the pdp e-rats here

abbey621:


Maybe you should ask yourself a couple of simple yet concise questions before attacking Buhari?

1. If it is indeed the law to have certian educational qualifications before being eligible to contest, why is he not disqualified or taken to court?

2. This is his 3rd time contesting, was INEC asleep the previous times or is all the commotion because he has a high chance of winning this one?

In a country with great economic and security challenges, I cannot believe educational certificates are the number one priority, shame on you all!

and maybe u should ask urself under which electoral law and regulations did he contest those 3 times and under which reformed electoral law is he contesting now. Do ur research,then come back.

All i could see was ''MY DADDY IS BETTER THAN THE OTHER DADDY''

hypocrisy is when the 'right people' can not do what they are called professionals for.

This ppl especially the so-called fani-kayode r takin advantage of the fact that most nigerians re still illiterate. Anyways, u can only do this in third world countries like nija. I can only imagine the republican campaigning with their opposition's certificate. If u do that in america, then u re gone. When will nigeria become enlightened. Why re we still so gullible to this extent? Buhari ran for presidency in the past, just because they knw he wasn't going to win, they didn't come up with the issue of certificate. Now that all indices point to the fact that he's gonno win, then comes the issue of certificate. Hmmm. The same ppl said he's sick and wished him death. They said he's too old. All these propaganda just cos he's gonno win? Thos who said they gonno wage war if GMB wins had better hav a second thought. Buhari will win landside.

Did I read this clearly? "He run for for the post three times and this is his forth one" since he has done that three times and failed, wht exactly is he goin back to do? Besides, he has ruled before.What did he acheive within those times he ruled? Bia my friend, make I no hear ur voice again. Nonsense.
GEJ all the way jor

ONE NATION,TWO MORALITIES.

(THE REPUBLIC) By Shaka Momodu:shaka.momodu@thisdaylive.com

What started in hushed whispers and was quickly dismissed with incredulity as a mere beer parlour talk coming from idle minds, appears to be gradually turning into a scandal of monumental proportions that goes to the very heart of the Nigerian nation, barely three weeks to a crucial presidential election in which the person in question is a candidate. The more I wish the scandal goes away, the more intriguing and resilient it becomes.

I was very reluctant to make this intervention on the raging scandal concerning whether the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, possesses a secondary school certificate or not. But the more I ignore the controversy, the more worrisome the General’s attempt to so casually dismiss the grave allegations of possible fraud in his academic qualifications. The situation is murky, lurid and embarrassing with grave implications for the military and the country, and no one is providing proper clarity amid the smog of dust raised.

An otherwise straightforward issue is being explained in riddles, presumptions and evasive suppositions about a sterling military career which no one is in doubt of anyway. The doubt, however, comes from the foundation on which the referenced career was built. I have even read in some quarters that he holds a diploma certificate from United States Army War College. Well, to those arguments, I say as it is said in legal parlance, ex nihilo nihil fit, which means, something cannot stand on nothing or better still, something can only stand on something.
The constitutional qualification for a candidate to be eligible to stand for presidential election is a minimum of secondary school certificate or its equivalent. Otherwise, that person is deemed ineligible. As things stand now, Buhari’s eligibility is being questioned and all we get are emotive career profile responses spanning a lifetime, rising to the very pinnacle of the military as Head of State and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces.

The question now is: has the APC presidential candidate met this all important constitutional requirement? The nation is yet to get a concrete answer to this question.

Buhari’s first public statement at a press conference on the issue on Sunday failed to clear the air surrounding his academic records. If anything, it has added fuel to the raging fire. His argument that he has contested thrice before is unacceptable. He must go beyond the polemics and provide the necessary evidence about his certificate.

In a sworn affidavit earlier, the General did attest that his credentials and academic records were with the Military Board. That was the first curious move about the unfolding drama. Where are his original academic documents? As far as I know, no institution collects original certificates from a candidate for keepsake. The only copies collected by institutions and employers of labour are photocopies; original documents are only brought for sighting and then returned to the candidate. I, for instance, have my original academic documents. It is preposterous to say anyone will surrender his/her original academic certificates to an institution or an employer knowing full well that his/her entire life isn’t dependent on that institution. In any case, even if it was dependent on it, original certificates are your personal assets earned after being found worthy in character and learning. Even the most rabid supporters of the General know that original academic records are never given to institutions or employers; they are kept by the owner. I have spoken to few military officers in the last couple of days about the on-going macabre drama. They told me they have their original academic records with them. The question now is: why is Buhari’s case different? Can any of Buhari’s supporters whose original certificates are with his/her employer raise up his/her hand and be counted?

Okay, let’s even give the former head of state the benefit of the doubt that his academic certificates are with the Military Board, but he sure knows how to access them anytime he wants. And being a former head of state, his request to the Military Board for copies will be met with the utmost dispatch. Why didn’t he do that instead of rushing to swear an affidavit? Did he really need to swear an affidavit that his academic certificates are with the Secretary to the Military Board? It is worthy of note that Buhari didn’t say they were lost or burnt; he actually knows where they are, going by his affidavit. So, why didn’t he go and collect them instead of resorting to an affidavit? The army has issued a statement stating it has Buhari’s career records and not his academic records, stating further that all past military officers can request for the their credentials if they so desire. Why has Buhari refused to request for his credentials for onward submission to INEC, thereby taking the wind out of sails of this developing and embarrassing mess and subsequently putting the issue to rest once and for all? What is Buhari afraid of? Has he been living a lie all these years while pretending to be the most upright man in the country? Why did it take so long for the nation to find out the truth about Buhari’s academic or non-academic qualifications? Why is his party, the APC, unable to satisfactorily clear the air?
The argument by APC that he has commanded three divisions of the Nigerian Army, rose to the rank of a major general and ultimately became the head of state and has contested presidential elections thrice begs the question, and is neither here nor there. Where is his secondary school certificate upon which other possible academic records stand? As a matter of fact, it beggars belief that the party is making such a puerile argument, when what is needed is a robust rebuttal with unassailable facts by making a public presentation of his certificate to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to quieten the doubts and suspicions. By taking the current position without a supporting shred of evidence, the party’s position has remained at best tenuous.

APC’s defence amounts to saying that a man who successfully committed a heist several times before he was eventually caught is not guilty of stealing because he was not caught in his many previous escapades. The question here is: can the grounds of past successful heists neutralise the fact that, that person committed a crime? Of course, the resounding answer to this is no. The fact that Buhari may have gotten away in the past and for so long because of the weakness of various institutions of state does not make it right. He has only been lucky that he operated within the regimented confines of the military establishment of a command-and-obey structure where questions of probity are hardly asked of superior officers. He probably got away in three election cycles because the rule didn’t require candidates to produce evidence of their qualifications. Added to that, is the fact that, it was taken for granted that he is a former head of state.

If Buhari is unable to provide evidence of a secondary school certificate or its equivalent, then there is a big problem. Whether he attended several military training programmes and courses is immaterial, if they were obtained without the basic qualifications to have become a commissioned officer of the Nigerian Army. The question that naturally arises from this is, which academic records did he use to join the army and on the basis of what was he promoted? Was he able to join the army and earn promotions on the strength of his ethno-religious background? Was it the quota system at play? Were entry requirements lowered for Buhari in 1962 when he entered the Nigeria Military Training College, the precursor of the Nigerian Defence Academy? What documents did he submit in the last three presidential election contests? The answer to this last question is that in the past, the rule only required a candidate to fill his qualifications, but that has changed. The rule according to Form CF001 now requires a candidate to not only fill his qualifications, he must attach photocopies of such. This was where the cat was let out of the bag. Instead of Buhari attaching his certificates as the rule requires, he ran to swear an affidavit that his documents were with the Military Board. Even if he merely filled his qualifications in the past, what were his claims? Did he swear to an affidavit to buttress those claims? If he did, won’t he then be guilty of perjury?

There are so many puzzles and fog surrounding this issue of Buhari’s certificate requiring urgent clarity. Ironically, the party that is riding on the crest of change and its candidate who has been rebranded and presented to Nigerians as a saint and the new face of change appear unwilling to subject themselves to the most basic requirement of transparency and the minimum legal requirement for eligibility. The sincerity of the change agents has been put to test, and instead of demonstrating that its “change” is not just a hollow sloganeering mantra, the APC has been foot-dragging and fiddling with the intelligence of Nigerians. And if I may remind APC and Buhari, “no one ever gets missing on a straight road.”

I have heard some people say, whether Buhari has a certificate or not, doesn’t matter, since a certificate is not what is required for one to provide good leadership. Well said. But my problem with that position is that it violates the law of the land. The more scary part of that preposition is his supporters’ willingness to tolerate this clear act of fraud by giving Buhari exemption from criminal liability of possible forgery and perjury while accusing others of corruption. And even arrogantly selling his candidacy on the strapline of integrity and unblemished record.

Now, how did Buhari spend his time before he was made chairman of PTF and after its dissolution? Has it even occurred to anyone that Buhari has never leveraged his influence and status as past head of state to support any worthy humanitarian cause such as eradication of polio, meningitis and even guinea worm that was very rampant in the North? Can anyone recall any forum where Buhari spoke to youths across ethnic and religious divides in an inspirational manner? Did he ever get invited to deliver any lecture anywhere in this country apart from Islamic events? Please, let someone correct me if I am wrong. Yet, this is the man who wants to change the fortunes of Nigeria, 30 yearWs after he left office as military head of state.

If the on-going controversy surrounding his certificate and his reluctance to clear the air with evidence is anything to go by, what legal and even moral grounds does he stand to aspire to the highest office in the land - when he cannot even meet the basic requirement of presenting his certificate? If proven that he has no secondary school certificate, then he may have perpetrated the greatest fraud in the military/political history of this country, and everything he has ever stood for will have no foundation anymore.

Think for a moment what the APC and its satellite groups - pro-democracy activists and our so-called constitutional lawyers would have done if a member of another party was the one accused of not having a certificate. All hell would have been let loose. They would be issuing statements everyday calling for investigation. But since this controversy broke, not a whimper from them. We have not heard that 60 lawyers are queuing up to defend the constitution against a possible breach by Buhari as they did to defend Speaker Aminu Tambuwal when he defected from his party, the PDP, and refused to relinquish his position.

Buhari by not producing his certificate means nothing as long as he is in APC. Talk of one nation, two moralities.

Buhari never won anything on any platform based on contest.It is usually the Certificate forgery , recommendation from a school principal ,quota system, and coup d'etat that was how he rose to where he is today and the only three times he contested he failed and this one won't be any different.

duhhhhh....You still de 4 dis matter?

@Zahra,
We have security problem because unqualified and compromised people like your father managed to smuggled themselves into the military. And because he didn't know better (due to mental deficiency/incapacity) managed to destroy the army as a result of incompetency!

So people still hang around this school thing after all the necessary clarifications, even from people in the President's cabinet?
Let's challenge many professors in Art Depts of our universities to show us their school certs to take the statistics of those with credit or ordinary pass in Maths.
Ask Jonathan to publish his school cert he used to enter Uniport whether he had credit in Maths as a Fishery and Zoology student.

Even if Buhari had F9 PARALLEL, the constitution say, he must be educated up to school cert. it did not states that, the person must have distinction before vying for the post. Furthermore, completion of Secondary School was the only prerequisite to join the army in the 1960's. Even if he falsified his SSCE, why did he give himself F9 in Maths? He had 5 papers and that is it. Even today there are still a few courses you can take in the university without maths.

When OBJ said snipers were in training we never sought for more information. The Political BH has a mission, my prayer is they turn on themselves.

Our PVC matters, get your own and let meet at the polling booth. True and visionary leaders we need.

yes ,inec has no problems but inec isn't going to vote. It is the nigerian populace that will go to the polling booths in the hot sun that are asking for something to boost their confidence in their candidate. Why is buhari delibrately courting controversy? Honestly ,partisan issue aside,do u know that buhari stands to gain more advantage over pdp if he produces that result? So why doesn't he just do it? with each passing day as this issue drags on ,he is losing supporters and voters .nobody cares about his date of birth or exam numbers .it is believed that he has a chance to win ,but he shouldn't take the feelings of nigerians for granted ,they hate to be taken for a ride .

100% of persons castigating Buhari know nothing about him and have not done any findings on him. I used to be among this 100%.
I really don't know if GEJ used voodoo on this people that they can not see how massively he has failed both locally and internationally.
I am christian that doesn't mean I must vote a christian even if I know the christian has the least quality for the job.

Thumbs up Zahra, omo alalubarika unlike Iyabo Obasanjo.

Bruh

But please I want to ask is God almighty an author of confusion? NO! How can one shepherding God's flock go into leadership position. Am thinking was he actually CALLED? Is he actually born again? Because I know very well and understand that CHURCH LEADERSHIP is different from POLITICAL LEADERSHIP. I sincerely doubt the claim integrity osibanjo knowing that if God calls anyone it's forever unless he himself dismisses the person. And he is proposing to bring change in Nigeria. So osibanjo may or can boldly tell us if God has dismissed him from pastoral work because he can't work effectively in pastoral work and as a vice president. I see this a conflicting issue.
It's a personal observation so I need no abuses or harsh replies.

Thanks
