The Minister of Information and
Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has said that President Muhammadu Buhari does not
know where he kept his WAEC certificate.
Controversies have continued to
surround President Buhari’s educational qualification with the belief in some
quarters that he (Buhari) does not possess a senior secondary school result.
President Buhari himself had
recently told the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal Court, PEPTC, that
there is no law in Nigeria that requires him to produce his certificates in a
bid to prove his eligibility to run for Presidency.
Buhari argued that under the 1999
Constitution, he was only required to be educated.
And, appearing on Channels
Television on Thursday, Lai Mohammed argued that a man who finished secondary
school since about 53 years ago may not have known where he kept his WAEC
certificate.
He pleaded with Nigerians to
pardon President Buhari, according to Mohammed, “53 years after a fellow has
left secondary school. 53 years, I think we should pardon him. Because has not
even known where he kept it.”
