Nigeria's Vice President and running mate of
President Goodluck Jonathan, Namadi Sambo
and APC Presidential Candidate, Gen
Muhammadu Buhari, have both failed to
present their University Degree certificates to
the Independent National Electoral Commission
as part of documents to be tendered before
the electoral commission by any aspirant
Arc. Namadi Sambo who presented his
nomination forms to INEC on Dec 10th stated in
his form that his BSc and MSc certificates from
his Alma mater, Ahmadu Bello University ABU
got burnt in a fire incident. He however
tendered a "To Whom It May Concern" letter
from authorities of the ABU stating that he
was a student of their school.
The letter in part read
“I certify that the above-named person
having completed an approved course of
study and passed the prescribed
examinations was awarded the Bachelor of
Science (Architecture) with Second Class
Honours (Lower Division) in 1976 by the
Senate of this University. His original
certificate got burnt. Please treat his case
in view of this certification. Thank you.”
On his part, APC Presidential candidate,
General Buhari said he could not tender any of
his academic certificates before INEC because
all his certificates are with the Military board
and not at his disposal. An affidavit sworn by
Gen Buhari rtd at High court in Abuja on
November 24th to this effect reads in part,
"I am the above-named person and
deponent to this affidavit therein. All my
academic qualifications documents as
filled in my presidential form, President
APC/001/2015, are currently with the
Secretary, Military Board as of the time of
presenting this affidavit. The affidavit is
made in good faith and for record
purpose,”.
All political aspirants are expected to tender
their academic certificates while submitting
their nomination forms. Other aspirants
including President Jonathan have tendered
their certificates to the electoral body.
