JUST IN: Atiku to address world press conference over Tinubu’s CSU records
The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party—PDP, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar is set to address a world press conference following the release of President Bola Tinubu’s academic records by Chicago State University—CSU.
A statement released on the press conference invitation reads, “This is to inform and invite you to the World Press Conference of Our Presidential Candidate, His Excellency Atiku Abubakar, GCON, at the Yar’Adua Centre, Tomorrow, Thursday 5, October 2023, in the afternoon.
“The exact time will be communicated shortly. Please endeavor to attend. Thank You.”
Recall that Atiku had secured release of Tinubu’s education records from the CSU through a court subpoena.
The released records, which came first on October 3 and a deposition on Tuesday, showed that Tinubu’s 1979 CSU certificate he submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission—INEC was different from samples of the certificates the University issued to students that same year.
Also, under oath, CSU officials said they could not authenticate the certificate Tinubu presented to INEC.
