Awol1:It is important you educate rather than attack. There are a few who come here to read comments and to learn, excepting mischievous ones. My man, Awol1, is however VERY correct....to add more; Section 131(d) of the 1999 Constitution as amended... he has been educated up to Secondary school level or its equivalent (This one is even for President sef!). Section 318 (1) of the 1999 Constitution as amended, describes School Certificate or its equivalent 1. A secondary school Certificate or its equivalent or Grade II Teacher's Certificate, the City and Guilds Certificate or 2. Education up to Secondary school Certificate level or 3. Primary six school leaving certificate and: i. Service in the public and private sector in the federation in any sector acceptable to the Independent National Electoral Commission for a minimum of 10 years and ii. Attendance at courses and trainings in such Institutions as may be acceptable to the Independent National Electoral Commission for periods totalling up to a minimum of 1 year and iii. The ability to read, write, understand and communicate in English Language to the satisfaction of the Independent National Electoral Commission, and iv. Any other qualification acceptable to the Independent National Electoral Commission. To add to the cases of Adeleke v APC, Atiku v Buhari... Bayo v Njidda (2004) by Justices Amiru Sanusi JCA (later JSC), Ifeyinwa Nzeako (JCA) & Ogbuagu (JCA) "In other words, as regards a Secondary School Examination; it is enough in my own view that one attended school certificate level i.e. without passing or obtaining the certificate." I think it isn't an issue.....The election is the issue and Edolites will call the shots then. Cc: ejimatic! 1 Like 1 Share |

fergie001:. Thank you all for your insightful comments and citations.Obaseki and APC saga will generate a lot of diverse opinions .I agree with all your legal references and contributions.However I want to reiterate that in my opinion that 1 Obaseki dug the grave of his disqualification 2 APC disqualified him because of Bayelsa drama..The constitution is explicit enough on the requirement for being a governor ....minimum of o level or its equivalent...Section 318 of the 199 constitution .Obaseki did not present any evidence of SSCE or GCE or what can show that he went to secondary school .He only presented HSC .letter of attestation. In the 70s HSC was awarded to those who attended private institutes where typing secretarial studies and shorthand were taught.HSC was never accepted for admission then.So it cannot be viewed as O level equivalent.Obaseki did not even have a certificate of the exam.How are sure that the private institute he claimed even existed then? Also his UI certificates have one with the name of the VC another with the name of the VC and registrar with different years of completion and date too as there was no evidence of SSCE or equivalent presentec before the committee neither was his HSC was satisfactory to the screening committee.So there is no way he can benefit from Atiku Buhari and Adeleke APC judgements. His disqualification on this ground is logical and non acceptance of his HSC is justifiable. On the other hand Obaseki presented an NYSC certicate with an error of spelling He did not correct the error since 1980 .How are we sure he served then? Bayelsa drama can emanate from this too.In my opinion Obaseki is aware of the crisis that might emanate from i his academic credetials.He even said he would not appeal the decision. One would expect that he should address the press by now with clarification on his papers Did he do so? No...It is also important to note that Diri s deputy was a two time serving senator yet the SC found his name irregular on the gubernatorial matter. So it is important for APC to tidy up now against Bayelsa drama. Finally a candidate who cannot present satisfactory credentials and give clarifications on them stand to fail a screening test. This case is decided therefore in favour of the APC and the screening committee of the party and I award no cost to all the parties. 3 Likes |

People are just talking the way they just feel (emotional feelings can't change a thing) if OBASEKI joins PDP with Olevel result, he automatically tell the whole world that his UI certificate is not genuine, (problem). If he joins with his UI certificate he will have to explained how (OBASEKI turns OBASEKE ) in his NYSC without any evidence to show he has approach the relevant authority to make amendment since 1980, also he have to explain how he graduated whitin three years at UI when he has only three Credits (problem) pls if u are leaving in a glass house don't throw stone. |

ejimatic: Whilst I agree with almost all your submissions wrt that Obaseki's certificate....I tend to look critically at these factors: For the Certificate.... Section 31(2) of the Electoral Act opines; the list or information submitted by each candidate shall be accompanied by an affidavit sworn to by the candidate at a Federal High Court of a State or Federal Capital Territory indicating that he has fulfilled all the constitutional requirements for election to that office." Juxtapositing this with the earlier submissions of Sections 318(1) and 131(d) of the 1999 Constitution....what the op is saying is can he contest and not be hurt by the Courts peradventure he wins? Yes. Availing himself of the opportunity of Section 318(1)3 (i-iv).....he is eligible excepting for the moral baggage that comes with it. The NYSC certificate of Obasek & Obaseki has been tackled in previous judgements ......in the cases of Oshiomhole v PDP (Aliyu & Aliu), Atiku v Buhari (Mohammad & Muhammadu), et al. The Supreme Court in PDP v APC & Ors this year settled that only the constitutional authority can effect changes, especially if it doesn't seek to alter its original meaning....I don't think Obasek alters the GENUINE meaning of Obaseki. For the BSc Certificate, the onus however is on the University Authority who have said Yes this man graduated here in so and so year. How did he get admitted into the University of Ibadan? The Governor stated that he lost his original certificates via a fire accident and had deposed to an affidavit which is known to law (Atiku v Buhari 2019). I tend to also disagree on the HSC issues.....he has tendered his grades, it is incumbent on who is disagreeing or alleging forgery or alteration to show so or hitherto his affidavit is false and valid enough reasons for his disqualification. He has provided the information, if you know it is false.....we need to know.... I reserve my ruling on this judgement until tomorrow! 1 Like 1 Share |

fergie001:. Thank for your correction on the use of Diri instead of Lyon. noting my comic concluding sentence, and your remarks on my observation and conclusion. I want to say that section 131 and 138 apply only if he has scaled through the screening and has become the party flag bearer. At the screening stage the party reserves the right to disqualify any candidate and a disqualified candidate has the right to appeal the decision within the provision of the party. Additionally I share your opinion on Obaseki or Obasek. I am not from Edo so I don't know if Obask is a variant of Obaseki Oshiomhole v PDP (Aliyu & Aliu), Atiku v Buhari (Mohammad & Muhammadu), et al.My only concern is why did he not go for an affidavit on this since 1980?Did he even write a letter of complaint to NYSC regarding it and tender it before the screening committee.?/No. Moreover if he claimed he attended UI with an affidavit did he present the affidavit before the committee? A university like UI will ensure that a student has the admission requirements before graduation not just an affidavit. It appears the governor is too relaxed and negligent on his academic matters.Considering all the circumustances he himself knew he had no chance in the screening exercise. 1 Like |

ejimatic:Well, you have said it all...but the University's Registrar has openly declared that he was a former Student there and duly graduated. I left that University and till now haven't obtained my Certificate ....my UG took me 6 years before I got a Certificate. Whilst so many reasons can premise on negligence...this cannot be adduced as reasons for disqualification especially when the authority has attested same. (In name and in writing). I know an institution where October last year made it a decade without convocation. I mean a State Polytechnic. So what have her graduates been using? I have also said that all these certificates presented to the Committee are in public domain. https://www.nairaland.com/5911804/apc-releases-obasekis-waec-result I will be awaiting your inputs Sir...

fergie001:. Certificate issuance is necessary for confirmation of. statement of results.We tend to have more belief in the former than the latter.That is why usually during screening certificate is preferable. The UI registrar ought to clarify double certificates different names and signatories on them. I read the link you gave and it made me wonder why the governor did not simply use O level if it is genuine with a certificate as a basis of his qualification. Why the use of HSC which has no value in Nigerian constitution ?The Governor knows more than all of us. |

ejimatic:My brother.....you are leaving law and adding emotions. I know Professors in higher Institutions......who still use statement of results....You can quote me. The idea of we need this and want this....holds no water. If I give you a statement of results and you don't believe it...You can verify from the higher Institution. And who told you certificates cannot be forged? Was it not someone that forged a PhD certificate at FIIRO from Benin Rep? I mean University Certificates. Even when you go for academic interviews in some of the biggest Institutions in this country...some use Statement of Results, you can also verify. I left a federal university that didn't print my certificate for more than 6 years and I was working in a big company with my SoR. I applied for my 2nd and later third degrees with a statement of results in different first-generation Federal Univs. Leave that issue. I wrote neco and I wrote waec, I have reasons for using either...which is my choice. That I don't use one doesn't make me ineligible for further studies or otherwise. Show us the two certificates, let's peruse. I made that mistake by forming my opinions on an edited results here online on the Bayelsa issue.. I won't do that again. A University like UI said this man graduated and you are saying they should clarify A or B.... ejimatic....you have left law bayi oooooo. He has tendered all....if there is anyone you have to counter the one on that link, avail us the opportunity to scrutinise. |
Re: How Obaseki Will Not Get The Bayelsa Treatment If He Wins With PDP. by ejimatic: 8:27pm On Jun 13, 2020 |
fergie001:. I am still on course. Since the constitution is silent on presentation of certificate or statement of results every screening committee or board can decide on what it wants. In some institutions you will be mandated to produce your certificate at a particular time while others may not not say anything.Same applies in some ministers and other oarastatals...Also the onus of scaling through the screening test lies on the the person being screened. In some situations however confirmation of results is compulsory especially for higher studies as the case may be.The ideal thing is certificates must be ready on graduation like in the foreign countries. Can statement of results and certificate be forged? I agree with you in totality that the answer is YES. |
Re: How Obaseki Will Not Get The Bayelsa Treatment If He Wins With PDP. by fergie001: 8:48pm On Jun 13, 2020 |
ejimatic:I know a federal Univ till now where it will take you over 3 years to get a certificate after graduation. Very true....in Private Institutions and some parastatals as you likely said, they will give you a 3year period at maximum to provide the Certificate. For higher degrees, I was asked to get a confirmation of certificate since my Certificate wasn't available, to back up the SoR. You are suppose to know that our stuffs are one kind. All the same, Obaseki's case was just a hatchet job though. WISH EDOLITES WELL MOST IMPORTANTLY. 1 Like |
