Academic Qualifications: CSO Writes IGP, Wants Tinubu Arrested Within 48 Hours by biosepeter1(m): 7:17pm On Jun 25, 2022
A civil rights organization. Center for Reform and Public Advocacy, has given the Inspector-General of Police a 48- hour ultimatum within which he should arrest and initiate criminal prosecution against the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu, for allegedly supplying false academic qualifications to secure the nomination.

The organisation threatened that should the IGP fail to act, court action would be instituted against him for an order of mandamus to compel him to effect the arrest of Tinubu at the end of the ultimatum.

The Legal Adviser of the CRPA and human rights lawyer, Agu Kalu, issued the threat during a press conference in Abuja on Saturday.

But when contacted, the Director (Legal Directorate), Tinubu Campaign Organisation, Babatunde Ogala (SAN), told our correspondent that they were ready to defend against the threats and allegations.

He clarified that the APC presidential candidate has complied fully with the provisions of the Electoral Act.

He said, “There is nothing to respond to them, the Electoral Act is clear. We are waiting, let them go, let them bring the writ, we will defend it. I think we have gone past this stage of some people on social media, for whatever reason in the media, issuing threats.

“If they have anything, let them bring it. As far as we are concerned, our candidate has complied fully with the provisions of the Electoral Act. If they want to go to court, let them go to court. But we must also let them know that we are not unconscious of the laws of defamation in the country. We know the difference between a court process that is privileged and making unfounded allegations in the Newspapers like they are doing now.

“But honestly, our candidate is not perturbed, he can’t be bothered by all these threats. If they want to go to court, let them go to court. When they come, we will react appropriately to the court process. What we know, we have complied fully with the provisions of the law and we will not be blackmailed and intimidated.”

Kalu alleged that the former Lagos State governor was not legally qualified to become the next President of Nigeria in 2023 on grounds of supplying false information on oath in his form EC 9 submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission.

Amongst others, the legal practitioner alleged that in 1999 Bola Tinubu claimed to have attended Saint Paul Aroloya Children Home School, Ibadan between 1958 and 1964 and Government College, Ibadan between 1965 and 1969, only to turn around in 2022 that he never attended any primary or secondary school in his EC9 form.

He said, “We wrote a petition to the IG on June 16, demanding the prosecution of Tinubu for providing false information on oath in his INEC form CF 001 which he submitted in 1999.
He added that in the event Buhari and IG failed to do the needful, the group in conjunction with other civil groups will approach a court of law for judicial review and order of mandamus to order the IG to do the needful.

Kalu who presented a Certified True Copy ad-hoc report of the Lagos State House of Assembly, which investigated the former governor in 1999 said that Tinubu clearly admitted discrepancies in his academic qualifications.

He said that the investigation of Tinubu’s academic qualification in 1999 was the aftermath of a petition written by a foremost legal luminary and social crusader, late Chief Gani Fawehinmi (SAN).

Sometimes I don't understand.

The same thing happened to buhari not having waec cert. Still they force him on us, which lead to one of the worst governance ever that shrink the country not only on economy, in everything...

The same political party still want to repeat the same calamity again for another 8 years, the present president is even healthier than the the one trying to replace him,
Someone that has no pri,sec cert. Want to rule a country of over 200m, something is wrong with this country.

I don't need to campaign for any candidate because I know votes don't count, if you like vote your candidate, (APC) they will still rig it, they can never and ever won a free and fair election,

Buhari no waec
Tinubu no school cert.grin
Buhari even better, he is physically fit.
Another 8 years
Nigeria a joke

IPOB miscreants and cannibals again? I said it. No group of people has the bitterness and hatred of baby factory criminals, and they are digging their grave because the calamity they are using their hands to pull will befall them after 202

No need of that am beginning to have the feelings that it is BAT supporters that are posting all this news just to keep their Oga in the news or gaining sympathy for him.

They did more than these before the APC primaries. Several petitions, still zero.

God bless President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR.



Vote Tinubu 2023. Vote APC.

Tinubu should respectfully surrender himself to the nearest police station to avoid being declared wanted by the police


Because it will be so embarrassing for the police to declare him wanted

This is dead on arrival except the cabal are the one promoting it, knowing fully well that it will be difficult to disqualify him at the convention.

Buhari better pass this fraudster. Atleast Bubu presented a letter from his headmaster. His classmates even came out. But this drug addict's certificate, origin name are all shroud in secrecy.
Re: Academic Qualifications: CSO Writes IGP, Wants Tinubu Arrested Within 48 Hours by Deborah98(f): 8:10pm On Jun 25, 2022
Why is it hard to find a complete and truthful politician in Nigeria? There's no election in Nigeria regardless of the office and position that there won't be an issue like this. Now this leaves with question why our educational system is ignored? How do you expect a leader/leaders who never went to school, dropped out of school or even forged their certificates to show interest in our educational system. It's well ooooooooooooooo

The problem I have with BAT is that since he knows he will be contesting this election why didn't he just take GCE last year. Even if he didn't sit to write the exams people would have written it for him. Instead of these embarrassments he's facing today. In any case we are OBIdient. What's my own?
