Few days after the former Head of State and Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Major General Muhammadu Buhari, retd, explained in an affidavit submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, that all his academic credentials were with the Military Board, the Army have stated that they do not keep the certificates of any serving or retired officer or soldier.
General Buhari is contesting the presidential election for the fourth time under different political parties including the defunct All Nigeria People’s Party, ANPP and the Congress for Progressive Change, CPC, but the issue of his qualifications had never been controversial until the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, recently described him as a ‘’semi- illiterate.’’
However, against the backdrop of Buhari’s affidavit in court, a military source said ‘’that the Army can not keep anybody’s original certificate because it is the personal property of the owner,’’ adding that such original certificates were only needed at the point of entry into the service.
According to the source, the Military only kept photocopies of credentials of officers and soldiers in their personal files that were in the military secretary’s office.
“The original certificate of any officer or soldier is only needed at the point of entry into the service either as a cadet officer entering the Nigerian Defence Academy, or the recruitment officers when interviewing recruits to be sent to the depot for training. That is so, because they are needed to verify what were in the photocopies supplied by them or from the necessary examining bodies.”
The source further stated that anybody claiming that his original certificates were with the Military Secretary (Army), had ‘’ulterior motive(s) or something he or she cannot explain.’’
He further added, “Let me tell you now, in the Navy, the Navy Secretary, NAVSEC, keep the documents of all Naval officers and ratings and not their original certificates which are their personal property.

Clear matter

this buhari of a man should be truthful for ones

What do you expect when APC as a party is built on lies? And they want to rule us... Next topic biko

And the army is so clueless to name it's source?

Why can't the army officially say this rather than you crediting a source that only exist in your dreams

He needs to be disqualified then. APC had Fashola, A SAN, but they chose a stark illiterate that rode on federal character to rise. Disqualify him! Enough of this disgrace abeg.

He has been hiding under the military mentality to strive, but he never knew that one day, our democracy will become matured. If Buhari cannot support his credentials, he should be disqualified and arrested for scamming NIGERIANS for many years.

mrofficial:
It's a PDP game. Jega should tell Nigerians how Buhari contested 2011 presidential election without certificate.

Abi o

illiterate vs PhD

Do we allow mediocrity now because it was allowed in the past...the presidency has its minimal qualification. Buhari and Sambo should tender their documents, if they don't have they should both step down and allow qualified people contest. Fashola, Gej, Osibanjo, Rochas, oshimole and many others are there for us to choose from. Anything from the past should remain in the past.

Pa Buhari where ur certificate Abi u no go school?

Olevel he you get

I pity Nigeria

Buhari is only a retrogressive change.



After watching his Christmas message I couldn't help but weep for my beloved country. All in the name of change we have stooped so low to accept gabbage as change. The man was having difficulty reading a Screened message.
What amazes me is how some intellectuals still queue behind him.

I want to go forward please.
