PoliticsRe: US Professor, Steve Hanke, Reacts To Tinubu's CSU Saga by Baatunde(m): 6:20pm On Oct 06, 2023
You people keep shifting the goal post once you are cornered, I believe the issue at hand is about whether he attended and graduated from CSU or not and that has been laid to rest. You must be aware that Peter Obi only presented a GCE certificate obtained in 1986 two years after he supposedly graduated from UNN. Can we gladly ask you on his behalf to please show us the O Level or any other form of qualification, Teachers Training, Techncial School or whichever result with which he gained admission to UNN in the first place? Please don't be like the ' stubborn' Tinubu, try persuade Saint Obi come forth and show us any result at all with which he gained admission to UNN because we think someone who want to preside over Nigeria should not be happy to present a GCE result filled with F9s if he has something better

greggng:
Yes you are right cos na buhari asked him to graduate from a secondary school that has not been established as at the time of his graduation . Tinubu doesn't know how to lie perfectly .

PoliticsRe: Thank You FBI! Hold Your Breath Guys. It Is Coming! - Jackson Ude (Photo) by Baatunde(m): 5:32pm On Oct 05, 2023
Either the FBI is a stupid security outfit if they have so much on Tinubu's drug dealings and all they can do is to release it for public consumption while making no effort all these years to bring him to justice or the peddlers and those who believe in those folklore tales are the idiots. Is it the same FBI that gave Tinubu all-clear of any criminal charges or conviction back in 2003 following the inquiry of Tafa Balogun instigated by Olori Madaru of Nigeria. Shebi I told people that the headless mob will always bring up one useless issue or the other till four years will expire. Anyone who is familiar with their tactics should know by now that they knew nothing is coming form Supreme Court just as they knew nothing was coming from the tribunal, all the energy is channeled at continuous instigation of one 'scandal' after the other thinking this would sway Nigerians against Tinubu.

It is the same tactics of being quick to remind of us how much Naira now exchanges for a dollar as if Nigeria was flowing with milk and honey when dollar was less than a Naira during Babangida's time

PoliticsRe: Next Generation Would Query Us Over Tinubu's Questionable Certificate - Aremu by Baatunde(m): 12:06pm On Oct 05, 2023
I was on a thread here yesterday when someone complained that only messages from Reno make the front page, at least we know who is Reno, but until this morning how many of you have heard of this fellow and why is his opinion more important than that of you and I. Anyways, it is agreed that there are some non-Yeasterners who also hate Tinubu with passion and hide under the guise of being liberal and you lots love those types until they say something you dont like na then it dawns on them that this is not about the best for the country but an IPOB back-door agenda to actualize their Biaflan dream. People like Tunde Ednut understands this situation better than anyone.

You people's hatred for Tinubu is pathological and phenomenal and it started even way before the man has even expressed his intention to run for the presidency. There is no name under this heaven that he has not been called. YOu think TInubu's certificate saga is an embarrassment, but you do not see any issue with your lord and master being implicated in the Pandora papers because "Indeed, he has a number of secret business dealings and relationships that he has for years kept to his chest. These are businesses he clandestinely set up and operated overseas, including in notorious tax and secrecy havens in ways that breached Nigerian laws.

You think Tinubu's certificate saga is an embarrassment for him and not for you as a Nigerian? And you lots were even happy to put fake words in the mouth of the CSU Registrar that " forgery is a Nigerian thing" and you think you are embarrassing Tinubu? I am not in anyway perturbed by all these stupid antics of pull him down. Even in this age of satellite imagery and space travels there are still " learned" people who argue that the earth is flat, same for those who chose to believe that Tinubu's legal team actually wrote the PEPT judgment and forgot to remove their title from the document, those who believe that Buhari we know is a clone and those who passionately believe that Obi actually won the election, without one single evidence to prove it. It is a bloody waste of time to continue dragging this issue with you lots, what is most certain is that Obi ain't going nowhere but Agulu. Keep the hatred burning while real Nigerians are actually praying for Tinubu to succeed. That is the beauty of democracy. " Awon n sejo awa n se ijoba.... yoo ma dun won ni"

Confirmed by whom?

Ashez:
Apology or no apology
It's been confirmed that Bola Tinubu (if that's his name anyway) forged the certificate he presented to Inec and by the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, he has to be disqualified, now disqualification is not the only challenge ahead but probably doing a jail time for his offence, he already prophesied that irreparable damage will be done to him and take it or leave, that irreparable damage is around the corner.
The game is over for Tinubu and for the records he brought this upon himself when he forced himself on Nigerians.
Light is coming.
PoliticsRe: "Leaders Forging Certificates Are Living False Lives" - Peter Obi On Arise TV by Baatunde(m): 9:49pm On Oct 03, 2023
You apparently have no idea of what you are talking about. WAEC is the exam body and the certificate for exams are WASCE Ordinary and Advanced Levels for school candidates and GCE for private candidates



slivertongue:
WAEC is the organising body not the exams. WAEC organized GCE and now SSCE and both has internal and external exams. In Obi's days WAEC conducted GCE both internal and external exams.
PoliticsRe: You Didn’t Submit Your UNN Certificate To INEC - Reno Omokri To Peter Obi by Baatunde(m): 9:36pm On Oct 03, 2023
I can see how the narrative is evolving Previously he was never at CSU and it was a female Tinubu that actually attended. Now however, we agree he actually went to CSU but he forged his certificate. Why do you need to forge the certificate of a school you actually attended?

As for the other matter, I believe the question was a valid one, why would someone with a degree be happy to present GCE result filled with F9s and obtained two years after supposedly graduating from the University ? Why do you think that is not a ground for suspicion. Not just about his degree certificate, but also about which 'O' Level result he tendered to gain admission to the Uni. Surely that result cannot be worse than the one with four F9



Racoon:
shocked The stupidity and idiocy of Reno Omokri is just legendary. Why not go to UNN to make your enquiry abi have you heard thay Peter Obi telling you he has a court injunction like the criminal Tinubu you are asslicking?

There is no disputing that Tinubu was not a student of CSU. The contention is the forged incongruent certificates and records he obtained and have with T
the CSU respectively that have been proven to be fraudulent and criminal.

PoliticsRe: Chicago State University's Release On Tinubu by Baatunde(m): 12:06am On Oct 03, 2023
Coming from the same people who said Buhari is Jubril Sudan! grin


wrongnumber:
This does not exonerate Tinubu.

The question is... Where did he get the certificate he submitted to INEC?

If CSU can not make a deposition that it came from them then where did he get the certificate.

Meanwhile one of the documents submitted showed that the Tinubu admitted was a female.

Just for the records so that Tinubu brnless supporters can comprehend...

That was the transcript used Yekini Amoda Ogunlere aka Bola A Tinubu to gain admission.

That was Richard Darley college before it was renamed South West.

Do you know what this means?

It means Tinubu commited a big fraud called Identity theft

BOLA A Tinubu was the late daughter of abibabat mogaji brother. She died shortly after gaining admission into CSU and Tinubu stole her identity.

Tinubu used her transcript to gain admission into CSU and the university was well aware but they never thought on their wildest dream that he will one day foolishly want to be the president of a very educated country like Nigeria.

Now also check the sample certificates given to Atiku today and check the one Tinubu gave INEC and you will see clear forgery.

It is over for Yekini Amoda Ogunlere... Aka transgendered Bola a Tinubu

I shudder to think what should have happened to the guy if you had 'supported' what those terrorists did to him because you don't support what they did to him yet you think he deserved his beheading because of the poor image of the police



NOwazobia:
I am never in support of what they did to the DPO.

Moreover I was addressing your poor logic and your short memory to the state of things regarding the relationship between the police and the masses, and my post never stated if I am for or against;

PoliticsRe: Update On Murdered Rivers DPO: Police Arrests One Of 2baba's Boys by Baatunde(m): 3:35pm On Sep 28, 2023
So in your book every policeman in this country deserved to be killed brutally because there is actually none of them that is clean like you are very clean also. In that case maybe there is no need to have a police force again

It is the resentment the masses have for the Nigeria police, myself included to a large extent, for their regular criminal acts.

PoliticsRe: Daddy Freeze Takes A Swipe At Popular Obidient As He Replies Her Tweet by Baatunde(m): 3:21pm On Sep 28, 2023
Abeg your excuse is not tenable, who does not know that Obi's supporters make the loudest noise in cyberspace? That same Nefertiti or whatever he/she goes by is the same one who first tweeted that Obi actually won in 19 States and promised to share more details before the Tweet was suddenly taken down, so maybe na only you think this person is not an Obidient. You said Obi was third in the election, are you not aware of Obidients saying he actually won the election and their noises is even louder than that of Atiku that came second.


slam7000:
Tinubu got 8,794,726 votes
Atiku was second with 6,984,520 votes while Obi was third with 6,101,533 votes and in fourth place was Kwankwaso with 1,496,687 votes.

Apart from supporters of Mr Peter Obi, are the other voters incapable of criticising Tinubu or making stupid comments?

Are you guys trying to say that Atiku’s and Kwankwaso’s supporters do not have access to the internet, are they restricted from commenting or criticising Tinubu, INEC and the electoral process?

Atiku is the candidate vigorously employing the legal route to unravel the mystery or speculations behind Tinubu and his academic records. Why is Obi always talked about when Tinubu is criticised?

Obi was 3rd in the presidential election but why does it seem like he is the main opposition to Tinubu?

PoliticsRe: Cross-River: Tribunal Dismisses PDP's Petition, Re-affirms Bassey (APC) As Gov by Baatunde(m): 2:56pm On Sep 26, 2023
We know the problem but we are sidestepping it. Politicians never want to accept defeat, When they have been openly and soundly trounced in the election they go to court trying to win on technicalities. Even when they claim the election was rigged, they can't supply evidences. Did anyone hear about election petition for Oyo state gubernatorial election? No, because both losers know for a fact that they were beaten hands down.

I believe all these flimsy petitions have been inspired by that of the two sore losers at the top who were trying to hard to gain entry through the backdoor of technicalities having failed to prove how they were actually supposed to have won.


BoldBrainz:
Sandy Onor, a one time Senator of the Federal Republic, has to be a fool to have based his entire petition on pre-election matters that are considered internal party affairs.

PoliticsRe: Olajide Adeniji: Another Classmate Of Tinubu At CSU Surfaces by Baatunde(m):
For anyone who is familiar with the issue of Barack Obama’s birth certificate, they would recollect that Republicans and other conspiracy theorists have been peddling the rumour that Obama was born in Kenya since 2008 when he won the democrat’’s nomination. So what happened then , did Obama do anything to dispel the rumour, no? He rode along with it and not until April of 2011, three years after the rumour started that he actually released his official birth certificate. MEanwhile people like Donald Trump offered $5million to anyone who can prove that Obama was born outside the US. This is not unlike the fishing expedition being carried out by Atiku and I am sure Tinubu is building up a climax by opposing the release of his academic records, let its wait and see how it pans out. Even if if there is an error about the gender it is certain that can be explained with the proper evidences. In those days of electronic typewriter and manual collations , mistakes in spelling and the likes was not unusual. I for one have on my academic transcript, the result of a course I never registered for nor sat an exam and I did not even know until 15 years later. That is why the additional evidences of people who actually schooled with him is very critical also even if some people think otherwise. What could also have resolved the issue quicker is for Atiku's team to fish out the "real" female Tinubu they are alluding to since they are most certain that it is not this one we know as the President. Now that would have been the killer blow!


MRMRMR:
He is hiding it for a while to keep fools like u busy, make u guys to chase shadows and labour in vain.
Funny enough, important aspects of the records are already release. Initially, u guys said he didn't attend CSU abi, then CSU said he attended and graduated.

Many thanks for this brilliant response. I guess we all know where that opinion is coming from, the same people who want their own BiaBia nation and have no issue in coercing the minorities of south-south into their union are the ones shouting loudest about not co-existing with other tribes as one nation. Delving deep into the demography of most European nations would show you most iof them are not homogenous as we think they are, and they co-exist peacefully


Rossikk:
The trouble with your position is that there are also many small, largely homogenous African nations that are terribly unstable. Somalia is a great example. Single ethnicity more or less, with over 85% Somali ethnicity. Yet, trouble from morning till night there.

Conversely, Togo has 40 ethnic groups, and is extremely peaceful.

The thing is Africa is by far the most ethnically diverse continent, with HALF the languages on Earth spoken in Africa, which has over 3,000 languages.

So you have NO CHOICE but to abandon tribalism and learn to live in multi-ethnic societies. You cannot have 3,000 countries in Africa, because that would make us extremely vulnerable to western exploitation and manipulation, far worse than exists today.

PoliticsRe: Why Are You Hiding Your B.Sc.?: Apapa's Faction Of LP Queries Peter Obi by Baatunde(m): 10:27am On Sep 21, 2023
I have seen the word ‘gbajue’ used many times on different threads and even in the same thread supposedly by different monikers, me think it is the same person who has registered different accounts

Anyways back to the matter at hand, the question raised here by Olodi Apapa is a valid one. Why would someone who has a degree be afraid to tender it when aspiring to be the President of Nigeria. Is it because doubts have been raised about the validity of the serial number and the date on his degree certificate that was released unofficially by his aides? And also the GCE certificate which was supposedly submitted to INEC was obtained 2 years after he was supposed to have graduated from UNN and was filled with 4 F9s, begging the question of how did he gain admission to UNN in the first place. I know people would reply that you should ask UNN but in the spirit of transparency could Mr Obi show the O Level result with which he entered UNN? Otherwise his case has a lot of commas not unlike those of Tinubu’s.

As for Tinubu, my take is that the guy has changed his names previously for whatever reasons and so could not tender all his previous certificates prior to the name change. As for Chicago, it is almost certain the guy attended that school and I cannot talk for him but on my own degree transcript, I was given a grade for a course which I did not register for and was not even taught in my department. I never knew this until 15 years later when I needed the transcript to apply for MSc.
