Doyin2:
Thank you.

The best way to avoid this type of lunacy,mischief and display of illiteracy,is to vote out PDP on Febuhari 14,2015.

We need peace and progress.

Enough is Enough!

GOOD FOR NOTHING.

A constitutional lawyer, Tunji Abayomi, on
Wednesday in Abuja said that Muhammadu Buhari,
the All Progressives Party, APC, presidential
candidate, had fulfilled the constitutional
requirements to contest for the office of President.
Mr. Abayomi, who stated this in an interview said the
logic of Section 131(d) of the Nigerian 1999
Constitution focused not on certificates but on
educational level.
Mr. Abayomi further argued that it was
constitutionally “trivial and definitely unwarranted”
for anybody to insist that Mr. Buhari must produce
his certificates.
He contended that the argument by some lawyers
that Mr. Buhari must produce his School Certificate
was based on ignorance of the provisions of the 1999
constitution.
“The 1999 constitution as amended is superior to the
provisions of the 2010 Electoral Act as amended.
“In my considered view and having regard to the
unambiguous words of the constitution, it did not
even say that to qualify for election to the office of
president you have to go to school,’’ he said.
Section 131 of Nigeria’s 1999 Constitution says that a
person shall be qualified for election to the office of
the President:
If (a) he/she 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; (d) and must have also been educated up to at
least School Certificate level or its equivalent.
Abayomi said that it was, therefore, left for INEC to
send its officials to the institutions that Mr. Buhari
indicated in his affidavit that he attended to verify the
said certificates.
