[b]Another foolish post from a lunatic.
Where in these sections did it specifically states that it's certificates is for public consumption?
Why not present the electoral law as regards what it said and what Buhari has done?
He presented an affidavit and stated thus.....


"Buhari had said in an affidavit he deposed to at the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory on November 24, 2014 and received by Independent National Electoral Commission on December 18, 2014, that all his certificates were with the Secretary, Military Board.

“I am the above-named person and deponent to this affidavit therein.

“All my academic qualifications, documents as filled in my presidential form, President APC/001/2015, are currently with the Secretary, Military Board as of the time of presenting this affidavit. The affidavit is made in good faith and for record purpose,” Buhari stated.

Inec received it and had no issues with it.
The NA that was referenced in the affidavit have no objection. Yet those that think are wiser than these lot are talking rubbish.
Buhari isn't bound by law to publish his certificates and nothing in the sections u presented suggested such.[/b]

FolarinLondon:
Regardless What your assertions are, he is qualified to contest as a presidential candidate.

The constitution says that you are qualify to contest as a presidential candidate as long as you have School leaving certificate or *equivalent*.

It is on record that he attended couple of military colleges in UK and US and he must have gained some military certificates

aguiyi:
This sections talks about the qualification and disqualification of presidential candidate for election.

my question is in view of some opinion saying that he is not obliged by law to show his certificate.

Qualification

sec 131 (d) he has been educated up to at least School Certificate level or its equivalent.

According to the wisdom of the drafters of the constitution, even a kindergarten school certificate will do. sebi we have GEJ. mumu

People used to say CHILDREN ARE THE LEADERS OF TOMORROW. We are meant to be leaders not near to death people like buhari, nigerians be wise for a minute

azzima:

aguiyi:


you are like a child with poor upbringing who can not make a comment without using abusive words , its truly not his fault but those of his parents and guardians who bullied him while growing up so he is used to bullying and abusing others believing its normal. you will be banned again today

Goon, i know ur pathetic kind and i don't go soft on ur kind. Ur parents seems to be foolish also to bring someone like ur kind who enjoys spinning the truth all for their selfish interest.
Anyway, face ur pathetic topic, it's already dead on arrival.

Dbboy:
Your question should be what is the approved known equivalent of school certificate in Nigeria if not your waec and Neco and its equivilent in other climes of the world like SSCE equivilent in the USA,Canada Russia etc that's the meaning of its equivilent OP so stop displaying your ignorance.

dridowu:
Year book or No year book, certificate or no certificate, constitution or no constitution i will vote Buhari as my next president because INEC has said that they CANNOT disqualify buhari . It is only a court that can disqualify him, for those of you that want Buhari to be disqualify, then take the next available bus to the high court to file a case against him .

you have been inconsequential since time immemorial and as a result of that,you are forcing your ideas on others.

That is the main reason you always bold your write ups so that others will be forced to look through them due to their loud appearance to the eyes.

that's is an obvious trait of a person who was denied freedom of expression while growing up now he is making/taking it by force , it is not the kingdom of God

Ok goon, where in ur link u gave did the law of the land states that the Generals certificate is for public consumption?
Don't u think both inec and even NA knows far more than u which explains why they Av no objections to his affidavit?

after the years you have spent on nairaland, you still have not learnt how to address issues without using insulting words.

aguiyi:


that is the power of freedom of information.

Nigerians now have a right to know as far as the medical condition or whatsoever they wish to know about a public officer and the office, guess you should commend GEJ for signing that act into law cos if it was in 1983, you will not even be thinking what you like let alone talking or typing it.

the 2 bodies mentioned above have no powers to disqualify him for now but the court can. somebody need to be convinced about his case before going to court, is it a crime to seek public opinion on a matter of national interest.

if you so much like buhari, can you show us your donation in support of his family poverty alleviation move. how many fliers have you distributed to youths and schools in your neighborhood to enlighten about your messiah , you guys will be surprised by what awaits you in few days and how it will hit you from left , right and centre .[/s]

Buhari will not only be disqualised for lack of educational qualification but also by indictment of the panel of enquiry set up by OBJ on PTF.

the courts will be opened few weeks to election,cases will be judged and before appeal is head,state commisioners of police will be redeployed, , election result is announced .


do you play cheers

Good. Now u are talking.
Let the headache be on both Buhari and Apc.
Do u think they are stuppid not to have envisaged these things? Anyone that feels aggrieved or wounded by virtue of the fact that buhari's certificate was not revealed to him in his bedroom as against what both the electoral law and constitution says should go to court as soon as it's opened.
So far, buhari has fully complied. If that form wasn't filled, inec wouldn't have accepted him and NA isn't gullible to allow buhari to continue to peddle any lie using their name.
This is politics for u. Sane Nigerians know that the General is well educated and competent to govern.
Gather ur facts and proceed to court and save us ur cries.

@Aguiyi/OP: Let us look Section 131 of the constitution again:
131. A person shall be qualified for election to the office of the President if -

(a) he is a citizen of Nigeria by birth;

(b) he has attained the age of forty years;

(c) he is a member of a political party and is sponsored by that political party; and

(d) he has been educated up to at least School Certificate level or its equivalent.

I have some questions to you:
Was Buhari Educated up to Secondary school level or not?
What is the Academic equivalent of NDA qualification?
What is the prerequisite to be admited into NDA?
Did Buhari meet this requirement?
Buhari is also said to have MSC or equivalent degree from the USA War College. Are you in doubt?
If you have legitimate claim, write INEC or proceed to court. However, be aware that no law mandate any aspirant to publicly display their educational qualification
