This response from Obi the incoming VP by God's grace has shown the difference between a well lettered man and a quota system product ...>

Exactly.
But the zombies will never notice the difference.

Not everyone is as Imbecilic and as naive as you are. I knew ibos to be smart, but these generations of ibos are imbeciles, excluding the educated and reasonable ones.

What I'm trying to say is that Joe should have kept quiet and people like me will see him as another Igbo in diaspora trying to make ends meet. But to attack his people anyhow- which no Yoruba or Hausa and other tribes have done in the manner of Joe - leaves much to be desired. He is the type that becomes a saboteur against his people during wars and of course the enemy ( you ) will love it.
You must be a Yellowbar so I'm not perturbed.
As for my imbecility and naivety because I chastised a recalcitrant tribesman, I leave you to your conscience - if you have any.

WAEC disagrees with Presidency, says Buhari applied for results


We would not have given him the document if he didn’t apply. It is only Buhari or a court that can ask for the results. There is no other person. So he asked for it –WAEC

No, the President did not apply for the documents. I made this clear in an opinion I wrote on Friday. The presentation of the documents to the President was strictly an initiative of WAEC –Shehu

Olalekan Adetayo and Olaleye Aluko

The Presidency and the West African Examinations Council, on Saturday, disagreed on the reason for the issuance of an Attestation of Results to President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday.

While the Presidency insisted that Buhari didn’t apply for the results of the West African School Certificate Examination, which he claimed to have sat for in 1961, the examination body said the document was issued because the President applied for it.

WAEC’s spokesman, Damianus Ojijeogu, stated this in an interview with our correspondent on Saturday.

Ojijeogu, in an interview with SUNDAY PUNCH, said, “We would not have given him the document if he didn’t apply. It is only Buhari or a court that can ask for the results. There is no other person. So he asked for it.”

Also, WAEC said in issuing an Attestation of Results to replace a lost or missing WAEC certificate, the subjects, where the candidate had F9, would no longer be captured.

WAEC Nigeria said these on its Twitter handle, @waecnigeria, on Saturday, while answering questions from several Nigerians on the omission of F9 from Buhari’s attestation.

“That is WAEC Twitter handle. It is correct,” Ojijeogu added, confirming the authenticity of the post on the handle.

The documents were presented to the President at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, during a courtesy visit by a delegation of WAEC led by its Registrar, Dr. Iyi Uwadiae.

Uwadiae was accompanied by the Head, National Office, WAEC, Olutise Adenipekun; Head, Public Affairs, WAEC, Abiodun Aduloju; and the Zonal Coordinator, WAEC Abuja, Olufemi Oke.

Buhari received the documents amidst the controversy generated over his claim in his details presented to the Independent National Electoral Commission that his credentials were with the Military Board.

The board had subsequently declared the President’s certificate missing, hence the need for him to get an attestation and a confirmation.

Earlier on its Twitter handle on Saturday, the examination body had stated, “You cannot apply for Attestation of Results or any other document if you have not registered and sat for the examination.

“The documents for application are a letter of application, police report on lost or damaged certificate, photocopy of lost or damaged certificate, two recent passport-sized photographs of the candidate, sworn affidavit for collection of attestation of results and administrative fee of N20,000.”

But the Presidency, which spoke through Buhari’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, said the initiative to make the documents available to the President was that of the examination body.

Shehu, in an interview with SUNDAY PUNCHon Saturday, said WAEC authorities made it clear that they read about the controversy generated by the President’s missing certificate and saw the need to save the council’s integrity.

The presidential spokesman added, “No, the President did not apply for the documents. I made this clear in an opinion I wrote on Friday.

“The presentation of the documents to the President was strictly an initiative of WAEC.

“They said they read about the controversy on the pages of newspapers and saw the need to save the integrity of the council.”

Shehu had, in an opinion, titled ‘President Buhari, WAEC and PDP’s toxic air’, on Friday, quoted the examination body as saying that the controversy concerning Buhari’s school certificate was embarrassing and felt a sense of duty to produce and deliver the documents to him.

He had said, “This is a god-send, with WAEC being a non-political entity. This should put to rest the absurd allegations by the Peoples Democratic Party, brought up again and again, that he (Buhari) did not attend a secondary school.”

WAEC said the controversy surrounding the President’s picture was due to a guideline that the council used the photograph of the applicant for the attestation and not the pupil’s picture as of the time of sitting for the examination.

WAEC also said it did not issue the attestation of results to Buhari in 2015 because there was no application for it.

It said, “WAEC does not record fail in certificates. He (Buhari) did not apply for it in 2015. In August 2015, the council introduced Attestation of Results that can be obtained on request and that can serve as a replacement for lost or missing certificates.

“It should be the passport photo he (Buhari) submitted during the application for Attestation of Results. Attestation of Results carries passport of the candidate’s application when he or she applied. Candidates were first issued Attestation of Results by WAEC Nigeria in 2015.

“What we presented to President Buhari on Friday was a Statement/Attestation of Results and not a certificate. Subjects that a candidate had F9s in are no longer captured in certificates or Attestation of Results.”

Either the President or WAEC is lying because the two statements cannot be true at the same time.
This is what happens when you tell lies initially because you need more lies to cover the original lie.
Lai lie.

Let's see how Buhari will enforce the "Court Order" if the NLC goes ahead with the planned strike. After all, according to the president, "some court orders should not be obeyed". This is also one of them.

CONSTITUTION: MATTER ARISING

Most people do not know what the Constitution provides as equivalent of School Certificates because it is hidden in the Interpretation Section.

[s]Some clairvoyant politicians who knew they would one day be affecte d by certificate issues put it there (when we dozed off) as PART IV: INTERPRETATION CITATION AND COMMENCEMENT, cast in stone in Section 318, where you will see that you don’t even require any certificate to be President of Nigeria – in Nigeria’s 1999 Constitution. Hold your breath!

Have you read the Constitution’s Section 318?
According to Section 318, "School Certificate or its equivalent" means:
(a) a Secondary School Certificate or its equivalent, or Grade II Teacher’s Certificate, the City and Guilds Certificate; or
(b) education up to Secondary School Certificate level; or
(c) Primary Six School Leaving Certificate or its equivalent and -
(i) service in the public or private sector in the Federation in any capacity acceptable to the Independent National Electoral Commission for a minimum of ten years, and
(ii) attendance at courses and training in such institutions as may be acceptable to the Independent National Electoral Commission for periods totalling up to a minimum of one year, and
(iii) the ability to read, write, understand and communicate in the English language to the satisfaction of the Independent National Electoral Commission, and
(d) any other qualification acceptable by the Independent National Electoral Commission;”

So, did you know that even INEC has been empowered by the Constitution to accept any piece of employment paper as School Certificate equivalent to be even President of Nigeria?

Go and buy a certified true copy of the Constitution today and study it. It is your power that ignorance and laziness have taken away from you. Read our Constitution and let’s use the provisions to challenge our defecting dealers, sorry leaders in court. We will continue the conversation on citizens’ incurable ignorance of their constitutions in global context next week. But start studying our own Constitution today and you will be a more empowered citizen.

Trash, Buhari should produce his WAEC certificate because he said that he has one but the certificate is with the military, that is the bone of contention, try to reason well before talking, that is why people fail exam writing out of point.

Exactly my thoughts. Because in the university, even if you have reached 400 level and during final screening it is discovered that you didn't have WAEC/O level certificates, you know what normally happens. Don't you?

" He who fights and runs away lives to fight another day ". Shekina. Every soldier knows that.

Please my people;
What did Obasanjo submit to the "INDEPENDENT NIGERIA ELECTORAL COMMISSION" in 1999? Affidavit or certificates?
What of David Mark and many other retired army officers now serving in the Democratic setting.
Did they also claim that their certificates are with the military?
Honest and unbiased answers please.
As for INEC's position on the issue, it leaves much to be desired.

Oshiomole how market? How come we don't hear from you as before?
Saraki is still the Senate President o.

Please which part of Igboland is this ofor ogoli from? I doubt he is Igbo anyway. Otherwise how can someone that sucked Igbo breast and has Igbo blood ridiculously loathe his people all in the name of defending his PARTY.
This has gone beyond politics. I've never seen other politicians talk about their tribesmen like this i*d;i"o-t.all in the name of politics!
If I call Joe a fugitive and a vagabond now what will people say ? Abusive? He started it.

Alary:
Reno and people commenting here are just fool or something. So when someone is dead the case against him is dead too, is it only travel ban the list is taking about or that there properties that were illegally gotten will be confiscated by the government . So there is nothing wrong in listing a dead person iname because our yam is still with his family .

Bros no vex o. How old are you?
So what you are saying is that Abacha's name should also be on the list? Or didn't he stealingly loot our yam?
SMH.

Yyeske:
Atikulate till thy kingdom come but if I may ask you, how many times have you seen Obiano attending any SEastern governors forum in person? That's to tell you how much he despises Obi and PDP, we all knew he was the first SE governor that visited Buhari in 2015 after his election as president.
So continue atikulating but don't shout when results starts rolling in.

But Obiano has just one vote.

Soldier come, soldier go, barrack tanda.
On parade, nothing concern center rank with "Open order".

Mad man say him get many things to do plus the madness wey him go mad.

Oga Keyamo, please do me a favor: SHUT UP! AND GERRARA HERE. You irritate. See your fat cheeks like a toad's.
In case you don't know, the question is: Under whose watch did Nigeria attain this status?
Oh you forgot to say that we should give your paymaster more time (another four years) to clean the mess.

If only the South is half as united as the North.
IMAGINE!

Butterflyleo:
If his speaking the truth made you dislike him, then keep your love.

Buhari is not a politician who would lie to save face, he is a leader who says it as it is.

Same with Trump in USA who isn't a politician which is why he also says it as it is.

This was why at their last meeting trump said and I quote

" He and I share many things in common".

Both are known to say it as it is with zero sugarcoating.

Your Buhari should be diplomatic and tactful when speaking on sensitive issues.
For example: The Ghanaian president told the German leader that the Ghanaian immigrants help in developing Germany so she should consider granting them resident Visa. How about that ! This is diplomacy and tact from a 'digital' President.
How did your 'analogue' hero react to the same situation? THAT THEY ARE ON THEIR OWN!- And you want me to clap for him.

BuhariM:
He's loved by everyone......


God bless president Mohammed Buhari

But, does he love everyone? That's what matters.

Remember him saying to the world that Nigerians are criminals, the youths are lazy and immigrants forced by hard time to leave the country are on their own.
Sorry, personally, he hasn't earned my love.

BuhariM:
He's loved by everyone......


God bless president Mohammed Buhari

BUT, does he love everyone? That's what matters.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Don't they have names? I demand to know their names if I'm to make informed judgement/comment..
Mutiny ko, belling the cat ni.

May Thunder fire anyone and any party that will RIG ( by whatever means ) next year's elections in order to win. Can somebody say Amen.

Whether for vacation or medical treatment, our leaders should be ashamed of themselves. You go abroad to enjoy what leaders like you did for their country/people.
And to think that our president doesn't see the need to build a hospital in Nigeria to take care of himself. Yet he wants to stand shoulder to shoulder with these leaders in international fora. How many Heads of State have spent so much as a night here - for whatever reason? I'm almost ashamed to to be in this contraption where nothing good is happening.(Please don't tell me you are cleaning the mess of PDP. It is obvious the one we're perceiving now is more offensive).
I can even do better if I'm in the position. SMH.
This is the truth and not hate speech o o o.

Sorry. You got it wrong .

Is it not obvious now why those women were shouting "Sai Baba" before thumb printing and casting their votes in Bauchi.
The majority can be wrong, you know.

The majority can be wrong, you know.

Precedents have been set (Tambuwal vs PDP). How was that case adjudicated? APC wants to eat its cake and have it? No way.
Legality ko, disobedience of Court Order ni.

Insecticide in action while non-defectors get the air freshener.

PDP should conduct a free, fair and transparent primary for all contestants DEVOID OF MONETARY INDUCEMENT. If Atiku wins, so be it.
But honestly, considering this man's antecedents, which APC will capitalize on during campaigns, it will be difficult for PDP to sell him to Nigerians.
Why can't Atiku help his party in other ways like being a king maker. (a Tinubu ). Must he be the king ? After all he was the Vice President for 8 years?

JegaQuin:
I have been asking and am still asking you people, who is the person you want to replace Buhari with?

Don't worry. When time comes you will know. Why "pinch a parcel that will soon be opened"?

So your Campaign Director ( who recently said that some states will vote for you even if you are on a sick bed), and the Campaign Spokesperson should shut up for now because the law forbids it. Abi?
See who's talking about obeying rules, laws and regulations.
Release Dasuki now (granted bail six times by different courts) and I'll know you are now a true Democrat.
But honestly, Sir, give us ONE good reason why we should even campaign to reelect you - based on what you HAVE DONE and not what you WILL DO.

AroleOduduwa:
I don’t like Buhari, but I don’t think he will lose the 2019 presidential election, he has already done his home work ( he has the backing of Inec, military and the police) He will win convincingly

In other words, he will RIG convincingly because the groups you mentioned don't vote. Yes?

What happens to all the recovered money and property? Will they be put to government's use or
will they also be distributed/given to ' the poor ' Nigerians? - Another way to reloot them if you ask me.

Oshio Baba, how much was your salary as a governor that you were able to build your kingdom fortress with all the amenities one can think of.
Blaming past leaders can never make you a good one. We Nigerians are now familiar with your party's antics. Only Zombies will vote you next election.

LaudableXX:
Guy, please keep quiet instead of peddling unfounded tales. Nwosu announced only the House of Reps, Senatorial & Governorship elections and spectacularly failed to announce the winner of the presidential elections, during the 1993 elections. Where and when was Nwosu manhandled? Was it inside your parlour? Haba Oga, you sabi lie, o!

Even the book he wrote in 2008, he only listed the amount of votes scored by each party - NRC and SDP. Did he categorically say that Moshood Kashimawo Abiola was the winner of the 1993 election? Did Nwosu himself not state clearly in 1993 that the election was inconclusive? So please stop defending the indefensible.

This is why I will like History to be reintroduced into the school curriculum so that people like you will be well informed. If you know how to use Google it will help you understand what I'm saying.
But my question: Between Prof Nwosu and your Jega who supervised over the freest and fairest and a rigged election?
Don't you think Nwosu deserves an Award as well?
