Before you fall victim to PDP deceit. Here are the facts.

1. Buhari is duly qualified to be President of Nigeria (see his CV below)

2. The Original Copies of his credential were looted when his home was vandalized after the coming of IBB and Buhari's arrest.

3. Buhari in his education and training in Nigeria, India, United Kingdom and the United States has qualification equivalent to Masters Degree.

4. Buhari in the election and other subsequent outings has submitted a sworn affidavit which fully backed by law.

5. Buhari have not contravened any electoral law or the constitution in all he has done.

The law says if you don't think Buhari have sufficient credentials, go to court. Jonathan is the C-in-C he knows the truth. PDP are only barraging Nigerians with this issue to see if they can distract you and smuggle their 6yrs failure of Jonathan's administration.

Buhari is, and more than qualified. Don't fall victim of PDP's campaign of madness.

Story for the gods.

Produce the certificate! Or step down as a candidate. That would be what a man with integrity would do! What is more corrupt than this. Outright lying... Trying to steal the mandate of the people!!!

Produce the certificate! Even a photocopy will be acceptable and stop biting your tongues!!!

Let him follow the law! No one is above it!!!

He should step out of the way and stop making fallacious noise on how he would curb corruption!!! When he is very guilty of same...

GEJ till Buhari can produce his certificate after 2019!!!

Guy, I dey fear you. You are staring the truth the face and you are trying to twist it.
The letter from the school said he was fit for military. The press conference said you applied with his flsc and a letter with his principal. If he got a certificate, he would not need a letter. Probably he tried waec several times and could not get it so that the prinipal would think he would do well in the military.

The Nigerian Army is compromised and in a grand conspiracy against the General. Earlier, they acknowledged that they were in possession of copies of his certificates and other credentials but are now saying it's only the 1961 recommendation letter they have. Even if that's the case, it meant Buhari was duly recommended as was the practice and he enrolled and passed through the Military school So what is the fuss?

And we already know that Punch is the propaganda arm of PDP.

At the end of the day, they shall all be shamed.
Punch owned by Tinubu is d propaganda arm of PDP? Are u for real, or plain ignorant?

@ ceo4eva

Can you modify and paste the full army press statement on the original post?

Because quite a no of people do not understand the implications here.

The army states at the point of enlistment he, Buhari came with a recommendation letter from his principal.

Without a Certificate.

Nevertheless on the Nigerian Army Entry form after commission as an officer he indicated he obtained a Wassc certificate with credits in 5 subjects and one pass.

There were no proofs that he's Certificate was verified.

Neither the Original copy, or True certified copy are in his personal file.

The Question is where is this Certificate or the Copy?

This is a Test for True Nigerians against Corruption, Nepotism, and Tribalism etc

The path of integrity for the Gen is to prove that, he indeed has this certificate he has used to attain so much from the Nigerian state.

And to dis abuse my mind, that he is a beneficiary of Lies, Cheating, Mismanagement, Nepotism and Man know Man, to get his way to being not only a General, but my Former head of state and on his way to becoming my President.

APC do the needfull please.

Thank you.
What needful are you begging APC to do? Just go to Court, let PDP challenge Buhari at a Court of law. This will be in the best interest of all. All this noise cannot do it.

This shows clearly that he NEVER graduated from the secondary school. A letter from the principal is not a certificate... It is a letter!!!

He should produce his certificate or step down!!! He is not the only anti-corruption crusader around!!! We all are anti-corruption and anti-terrorists crusaders...

Buhari should step out of the way and leave Nigeria in PEACE!!!
Re: We Don’t Have Buhari’s Credentials - Army by Nobody: 6:43pm On Jan 20, 2015

It is not given when you complete your course. When you did so, you are given a school testimonial. Principal letter is just a letter affirming that you are of good character and usually given to somebody who wants to drop out of school and look for something else to do. It is usually given to a dullard who is of good character. The prinicpal may just say " mr. you are good in character but cant cope with the rigours of academic world. pls can you enlist in the army, i will put a nice word for you". That was how those Onyibo principals did it those days and Buhari benefited from it.
Like seriously? A certificate is not given when you complete your studies? Gawd I can't beleiev you wrote that. That piece of paper is actually to certify that you have satisfied and met the requirements needed both in character and learning. If you don't finish the prescribed courses satisfactorily no certificate is given and in Buhari's case no certificate was given because he didn't complete the prescribed courses. A principal's letter doesn't in any way equate to certificate. I'm surprised you are saying this.

Pooooor TANists
Buhari attended secondary school, but I can bet you he didn't sit for SSCE. He probably dropped out on the way. GMB frankly doesn't have WASC, and it's a big shame. He even lied that his credentials are with d military board.
Just note that Buhari will be faced with serious lawsuits if he doesn't present his certificates. Even if he wins the election, the election will be nullified thereafter.
Re: We Don’t Have Buhari’s Credentials - Army by Descartes: 6:44pm On Jan 20, 2015

kennyamusan:
Now don't u see it amusing,same Military said they have the certificate,same military said they only have recommendation,I think the military should be the one we should be pressurizing to publish the certificate if truely it is with them. Now look @ it dis way,if truely he has none,y is GEJ not contending that in the court of law 2. INEC has the sole power to disqualify any certificate incase of forgery,y is it delaying 3. The US Military have all come out to say they know about it,so y d stress of all PDP Members 4. PDP have all written to appropriate quaters but discovered that what it is being said by Buhari is false 5.Why now,he did it for two times,y should GEJ watch him get away with it twice ? It was so glaring that he would win but this time,he never envisage this kind of opposition,so he was taken aback. 5.I would really love to see a healthy debate between both of them and not this 'I would build prison/school,he doesn't have certificate,he doesn't have phD,he doesn't know how to use a computer,he is a muslim/christian etc,we should have moved beyond that because what the common man is interested in is FOOD for the stomach.
First, the military in it's first statement said they have 'records' of past and serving officers. Records entail a lot and it so happens that as at the time of this 2nd press release, that particular document is not there among GMB's 'records'. The military has no business publishing credentials of any officer unless specifically asked to do so through formal channels. Buhari ought to apply to the military for whatever documents he has sworn under oath to be in their possession.
1) The Judiciary has been on strike since d new year, so courts are not in session. His legal team probably know to strike when the iron is hottest. When the time is right...
2) No issue of forgery has been raised. INEC cannot allege forgery and GMB did not forge documents he only mentioned the location without deeming it fit to produce them as they are not lost, are in existence and accessible.
3) Nigeria is a sovereign nation. The US cannot meddle in or decide purely national issues. What they say has no evidential weight and our laws prescribe procedures for the issues on ground. Our national laws stipulate rules which must be complied with. Does Nigeria have any say in US National issues? Look at it that way.
4) Like I said, time is king here. When they're good and ready, all 'discoveries' will be made public.
5) The provisions of other Electoral Acts made it permissible for an affidavit to suffice. Now, amendments have been made and candidates are required to attach copies of whatever academic qualifications they have or an affidavit stating why they cannot attach said copies. GMB's affidavit tells u where his certificates supposedly are without saying why he cannot attach them.

A healthy debate will really be welcome...fact remains that all debaters must be qualified.

Nothing was lost.. Rather whether the military lost it or not is not the business of Muhammadu Buhari and the entire Nigerians, the military should explain why they ransacked the house of the great General and looted his properties. As far as we are concern, Buhari didn't lost anything. The Military forcefully took it
You know it sounds so funny the way you emphasize that the military took Buhari's credentials like you have evidences to back your claims.

Because of him everyone is worried about violence pre, during and post elections!!! He is synonymous to violence and incites violence!!!

Telling their followers to 'protect their vote' - insinuating violence at the polls... He should get out of the contest!!!

APC should count their losses or present a qualified candidate with the right credentials!!! All we are asking for is WASC! WASC!! WASC!!!

My point exactly. In addition to a certificate, an attestation letter is given. I did mention that in one of my earlier posts. Now, the 'attestation letter' and no more is out. The burning question remains, where is the certificate? The letter was placed on something, where is the thing it was placed on? Where is evidence that a proper foundation was laid before the laying on of all other 'qualifications'?
I will tell you where the certificate is if you respond to the latter part of my post.

Section 131(d) on educational qualification says

He has been educated up to at least school certificate level or its equivalent.

The army says

It said at a press conference in Abuja on Tuesday that it had a letter from the Principal of Buhari’s secondary school, dated 1961, recommending him for enlistment into the military school.

There is a lacunae in this law and that is that the constitution doesn't expressly demand a certificate

The constitution didn't ask for a certificate. It only requires that a candidate has secondary school education which a certificate might help to prove but a recommendation from the principal of the school in 1961 will also prove the same thing which is that the student attended the secondary school and received education that qualifies him for a school certificate even if he didn't write the final exam.

Note:a certificate having F9 or A1 throughout will prove the same thing which is:the student had school cert level education.

That is what the constitution stipulated. A secondary school education and a letter of recommendation from a school principal proves it.

This is my own take on it and I trust I'm entitled to my own opinion. If you disagree, lay out your own points.
So bros, what if the principal was a family friend, and simply drafted a letter for him to be enrolled into the army? Is the recommendation letter an adequate proof that he actually attended that school? A certificate nails it, cos u can't obtain WASC if you didn't sit for the examination, and you can't sit for the exam if you didn't have secondary education.

Before you fall victim to PDP deceit. Here are the facts.

1. Buhari is duly qualified to be President of Nigeria (see his CV below)

2. The Original Copies of his credential were looted when his home was vandalized after the coming of IBB and Buhari's arrest.

3. Buhari in his education and training in Nigeria, India, United Kingdom and the United States has qualification equivalent to Masters Degree.

4. Buhari in the election and other subsequent outings has submitted a sworn affidavit which fully backed by law.

5. Buhari have not contravened any electoral law or the constitution in all he has done.

The law says if you don't think Buhari have sufficient credentials, go to court. Jonathan is the C-in-C he knows the truth. PDP are only barraging Nigerians with this issue to see if they can distract you and smuggle their 6yrs failure of Jonathan's administration.

Buhari is, and more than qualified. Don't fall victim of PDP's campaign of madness.

This Valentine, it is all about Nigeria - Sai Buhari.
What are u talking about let him simply show his certificate and let all these insults on him stops. To my own understanding he knew the truth and which is this, he has no wasc certificate, like most of all these northerners who had being in government for so many years ago.

By the way, the constitution mentions school certificate and not secondary education.
And you've not heard about a forged school certificate before?

My brother, the constitution has plenty lacunae. Check section 318 to see what school cert equivalent means according to the constitution

This man should be charged to court for lying to Nigerians. Whether we like it or not Buhari dont possess the said certificate. Forget the political gerrymandering he is playing. How can one enter the NDA with just recommendation from a principal? Even if he is alledging the millitary during IBB regime carted away his original certificate, the photocopies he summited to the military board is still suppose to be there but it is no where to be found! Who is he fooling? Who doesnt know the Nigerian system were people just give recommendation to unqualified individual for employment purpose. As far as am concern Buhari should be disqualified for even lying to Nigerians period.
