REACTION: Buhari’s WAEC certificate: A tragicomedy ― PDP

PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari, on Friday, received attestation
certificate and confirmation of school certificate result from the
West African Examinations Council (WAEC).

The president had been widely reported not to possess the
certificate following his inability to submit it to the Independent
National Electoral Commission (INEC) for the purpose of
election.

But Special Adviser to the President on media and publicity,
Femi Adesina, who broke the news on Friday, said that the president
now has an attestation to the to the certificate from the
examination body.

In a tweet on his Twitter handle, @FemiAdesina, he said: “WAEC
presents attestation certificate and confirmation of school cert
result to President Buhari. What will the naysayers say next?”

In a swift reaction, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
dismissed the move as a tragicomedy, adding that the certificate
was procured.

The National Publicity Secretary of the main opposition party,
Kola Ologbodiyan, told reporters in Abuja on Friday that the
attestation was like the Martin Luther King Award presented to the
president last year which turned out to be a fake award.

While wondering why the certificate was appearing only a few
months to the election, the party spokesman said that the fact that
the president did not use the certificate in the 2015 election is
an affirmation that he does not have a certificate.

The PDP spokesmen added: “It is a tragicomedy. We never expected
Mr President to dramatically come this low because you cannot have
a certificate and be calling it an attestation.

“What are they attesting to? We stand by our position that Mr
President has no school certificate.

“It’s simply a political certificate. We have said that the
Buhari presidency and his handlers are always fretting at the
mention of a certificate.

“So, they want to mislead Nigerians to say that Mr President has
a school certificate.

“If Mr President has a certificate, why did he not use it in
2015 election? Why is the certificate suddenly emerging few months
to the election?

“And have you checked the photograph that was attached to the
certificate? In 1961, was it the requirement of WAEC to have a
passport attached to school certificate?

“Even in our own generation, was it a condition in WAEC that you
must submit your passport to be attached to your certificate?

“They should come off it. It’s too low.

“You remember the procured Martin Luther Award presented to our
president which later was discovered to be fake? This is a similar
award, a procured.

“We are waiting for the story of its declaration as another
procured document.”

In 2015, The WAEC Certificate, Mr Fraudster
Showed Us Had Mathematics As One Of The Subjects He Wrote

In 2018, Mathematics Is Nowhere To Be Found In His Recent WAEC
Certificate
