The result sheet for the senator, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) who represents Kogi West senatorial district, came from a secondary school attended by Mr. Melaye.
The senator according to SaharaReporters had kept that aspect of his academic history hidden from the public by scrubbing the school from his profile on the website of the Nigerian Senate.
Mr. Melaye sat for the WAEC exams at the Abdulazeez Attah Memorial College, Okeke in Kogi State. His results, exclusively obtained by SaharaReporters, reveal that Senator Melaye, whose name on the result sheets was registered as Daniel Jonah O. Melaiye, only made three credits in Christian Religious Studies (C5), Agricultural Science (A3) and Biology (C6). Melaye took 6 other subjects including English Language (P8), Mathematics (P8), Chemistry (P8), Economics (P7) and Physics (F9).
The dismal performance meant that Mr. Melaye did not have the minimum requisite credits to gain admission into a Nigerian university to study for a bachelor’s degree. In fact, the only way he could have been admitted for studies at a Nigerian university was if he earned other credits from another secondary school.
Mr. Melaye did not list his secondary school education on his www.linkedin.com profile. Nor did he provide it on his senatorial profile on the website of the Nigerian National Assembly. Instead, he listed Gandun Nasarawa Primary School in Kano as the source of his West African School Certificate. Pupils in primary school are not eligible to sit WAEC exams.

The truth is coming out! He's full of it. Dismiss him from the Senate forthwith.
ReplyDeleteThe ABU authorities share a large part of the blame if all these are true. The University admission staff during that period should be investigated. Or did he enter through the Remedial program?
ReplyDeleteMy previous comments that Dino Melaye actions and presentations in the Senate reflect immaturity, thuggery and illiteracy has come to light. Thank God the truth has been revealed.
ReplyDeleteIf this is true then dismissal isn't sufficient. The wealth that under the circumstances would have been illegally amassed should be confiscated.
