CSU Saga: Afolabi Explained Why Tinubu’s Certificate Specifies Female
In the February 25 election, Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, is challenging the victory of Tinubu. He filed a case at the District Court in Northern Illinois, United States. Recently, the court ordered Chicago State University to release Tinubu’s academic records to Atiku Abubakar.
Afolabi, President Tinubu’s Lawyer said that the reason why President Tinubu’s certificate indicates female is
because of a mixup at Chicago State University (CSU).
Toptrend News understands that the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, had sought the certificate of Tinubu in his move to remove him from office at the Supreme Court.
Wole Afolabi, when questioned why the President’s certificate carries “F”, said,
“The transcript that was provided by Southwest College indicated F. It was clear. All of the other particulars respond with the information of President Bola Tinubu.
As the registrar was interviewed on why the discrepancies. He stated that the person applying for the school ticked the box of a male, instead of a female, and when the admission letter was issued, it was issued to Mr Tinubu.
“When the question was put to Dr West Brown, he said it is not unusual for universities to mix up. He (West Brown) has been to several universities. It is possible.”
Speaking on the inconsistency in the signatures on the certificate, Afolabi said that certificates were not issued at the time of graduation until one applied for them.
“When the question was put to Dr West Brown, he said it is not unusual for universities to mix up. He (West Brown) has been to several universities. It is possible.”
He added that the person who issued the certificate Tinubu submitted to INEC might not have been in the university in 1979.
“When the question was put to Dr West Brown, he said it is not unusual for universities to mix up. He (West Brown) has been to several universities. It is possible.”
Responding, a former spokesperson for Atiku, Segun Sowunmi, stated that they were not sure if Tinubu actually attended Chicago State University.
“We have it on record that they are running left and right and cannot own the certificate which says he is female. There is a security number on that certificate linked to a female name. How do we know if he attended the school?”
Many questions, including this, are still awaiting answers.
