We Igbos support senator Dino Melaye. How I wish Senator Dino Melaye can rule us in Igboland. Infact Dino Melaye must rule us in Igboland in Jesus name. Dino Melaye is greater than all Igbo men both dead and alive.

Dino Melaye is greater than ojukwu
Dino Melaye is greater than chinua achebe
Dino Melaye is greater than nnamdi azikiwe
Dino Melaye is greater than nnanmdi kanu

True. Same way they can decide to award someone who failed all his courses first class simply because he took a bullet for the VC. If Imperial college was going to accept such a student, they would want to see his transcript showing all the courses he passed enroute to graduating with a firstclass degree. If the transcript is found wanting, he would be rejected.

So in the same vein, if he is termed a ceremonial graduate of ABU, he doesn't reserve the right to call himself a graduate of that school anymore than Patience Jonathan deserves to call herself a PhD holder.

PS: I know even with a secondary school cert Dino is allowed by law to contest for a senatorial position. The issue here is he was claiming to be a graduate of ABU and if the evidence suggests that he wasn't, that would be tantamount to fraud. Bear in mind, this same Dino felt Hameed Ali was incompetent to head the customs, simply because he refused to wear the uniform. So is Dino fit to be a senator if he told a lie about his qualifications?

Eguaikide:
Sahara reporters and Yele is afraid of going to jail for spreading fake news! A VC has just spoken and confirmed Dino Melaye as a graduate of ABU ZARIA, you still have the audacity and shamelessness to quote an exam officer- are you guys not so low Yele since your generation can never come up with the option of fine in the case instituted against you, you will eventually rot in jail! Very idiotic online news media! Na buhari be that tell him to bring ordinary waec certificate him no gree since, you're now throwing banter at a university graduate! Yele you get sense so?

seguno2:


So are you a lawless person?
Why can't you patiently follow the case in court?

Seun, Please give this guy his trophy already. The Most Unintelligent Comment of the Year Award.

ozoebuka1:
Can you specifically show me where I said that Dino is guilty as accused?

My stance has been for people like you to stop defending people that has over the years repeatedly caused us pain... I won't quote you again on this issue tho'.

omogin:
Sowore should go and die

favorchild2017:



Are you saying, the VC has not considered all you are saying? or you also think a VC is a politician. That will just accept money. Even if he had in the past,This is not a n ordinary case o, the minster of education, president, dsss and IGP and all interested and will be watching with rapt attention.

The man is presenting in front of the nigerian senate.

you can imagine the level of professionalism and due deligence the VC will take.

ME and you do not have the hand book of the ABU university senate.

The VC is the chairman of the senate and if he says dino graduated, then he did.

Why wont you just accept that? or are you too now an exam officer

ozoebuka1:
It's boldly written in my post that I don't care about both sowore's accusation nor Dino's denial.

My problem is with people like you who will burn their resources defending one politician in Abuja. It should be instilled in your mind that Nigerian politicians don't care about you and me and as such are not worthy of our support!!! If you are truly standing for the truth, stop defending politicians until they prove that they deserve our support, that my point.

seguno2:


Why can't you just answer if you know?
Abi you just dey shakara upon ignorance ni?

vecman22:
How can dino serve in 1999 then graduate 2000....

3. Dino - how many courses did you complete in your course forms?
4. Dino - how many exams did you write in your stay at the university
5. Dino - describe your core, compulsory and elective courses?

10. Dino - design a flowchart to show procedure for clearance for a graduating student at ABU..start with department
11. Dino - where did you do your industrial attachment while in Year 3?

Please dont provoke me to rain questions on you and your cohort this afternoon.

Useless Sin(ator)

Eruditor:


No. You don't get it. The VC did not see Dino as a student neither did he verify all Dino's records to ascertain that he met all the conditions to graduate. All the VC did was confirm that ABU records state that Dino graduated.

If the department did something fraudulent by sending his name to be approved by the senate, the senate may approve it unwittingly which will make the VC say Dino graduated. But if the department ends up confessing that they did something fraudulent or exposing someone who did something fraudulent (Like Prof Ogbonna allegedly did) then they can retract the claims that he graduated legitimately and that way the VC still won't be wrong.

kateskitty:
The fact that the VC took so long to comment on Dino's shows that he was waiting for his big big oga's to come and tell him what to say today, tamper with evidence and grease his account.
Dino has money so it wouldn't be a problem​, but problems is with the VC.
If I were the VC, I will take Dino's money and still say the truth.

Eruditor:


If the VC considered all I am saying we would never know. He only answered the question he was asked. Besides, he was not going to throw his school under the bus. Admitting that Dino didn't graduate will besmirch the reputation of ABU- The very school he was sworn to protect.

Why won't I accept that Dino claimed he graduated 1999 (according to NASS website) then as soon as SR questioned his status as a graduate, the same NASS website removed the year of graduation?
you know what i give up, you are free to believe what you like.

but i believe the VC which from a fair view is an authentic source to believe.

Good luck with you and sahara




Why won't I accept that Dino showed pictures of himself with people he called his mates donning NYSC apparel (except him) in 1999 as evidence he graduated (to have served) but his alma mater says he graduated 2000?

Why won't I accept that someone who had 4 carryovers by final year (300L and 3 400L courses) still found a way to graduate with his mates?

Why won't I accept that someone who graduated 1999 on NL ABU Geography dept uploaded a cert stating he had BSc Geography but Dino's cert states B.A?

Why won't I accept that such a distinguished senator of Nigeria (mouthy one as well) was unperturbed that his name was not on any graduation or Alumni list?

Why won't I accept that Exam officers in his school are still adamant he didn't graduate legitimately?

tolue42:


your first post reads "some people will start defending Dino " it automatically shows you are on Sahara deserts side. peace!

favorchild2017:


Every statement needs to be backed by fact.

who is sahara reporters?

Does sahara reporters admit or graduate students.?

Do they keep records of student?

If the University VC can come out and say before the Nass dino graduated, then i think it is safe to say he did.

This is not an ordinary case, the VC presented in front of the Nigeria senate. Do you know how serious this is?

The president of Nigerian, IGP of police, Minister of education and DSS will all be interested in the matter, and will be watching with rapt attention.

You can imagine the level of due diligence he would follow before making any statement.


As far as i know this is not the first time sahara will publicize incorrect information.

Let us not be blinded by sentiment.

allrightsir:


What manner of a slowpoke is this? I am not an Ibo man but I know you cannot be an Ibo man because no Ibo man will make such a statement.

tobiasbeecher:

Listen to yourself,so you were there to know if the VC verified Dino's result before coming testify in the senate under oath. So you think he just come to the Senate without first of all verifying Dino's result? So you think it's only from the department they can verify the result? What of the exams and record unit? You talk as if you' have credible evidence that Dino didn't graduate rather than what Sahara reporters have been feeding you. I will say it again, I will comfortably believe what the VC of ABU said under oath than what a faceless media organisation claims

Rilwan20:
This will cause insidious damage on ABU image. It's high time Nigeria start using database for keeping records of her citizens. By the what did the DSS investigate prior to the election time?

ElsonMorali:
Are you still in secondary school because that's the only way that comment can be forgiven?

Have you ever heard of anyone who hadn't graduated but went to serve...apart from Dino Meliar?

mulattoclaroo:
Why are Nigerian universities always fond of making a fool of themselves? Something similar is happening in Western Delta University, Oghara, Delta State. The school is fond of telling students who have graduated and finished serving that they have carryovers whenever they come to the school to request for their transcripts.

Chiomenwa:
During my days in school,
My school do wave one or two courses for finalists.
Maybe Dino case is the same.

Eruditor:


According to SR, it is the exams and records that are insisting Dino didn't graduate legitimately.

abescom:
I knew that won't be the end. Those jumping up and down on the other thread were just impatient.

We all knew Dino is lying. Those defending him are just doing it out of hate for APC and their pastime of supporting anything that goes against Buhari.

ajalawole:
I bet with my life, this VC has been bribe..... He graduate in 2000, and serve in 1999. No wonder we are backward in this country
