Presidency Reacts To Report On Atiku Forging His WAEC Certificate

444

The presidency has reacted to reports concerning the name which appears on the secondary school certificate submitted by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate in the 2023 elections, Atiku Abubakar to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

The result bears “Sadiq Abubakar” instead of the popular Atiku Abubakar which also appears in other credentials of the former Vice President.

The Senior Special Assistant to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Publicity, Temitope Ajayi who reacted to the reports on Tuesday questioned why Atiku is bent on seeking Tinubu’s academic background from Chicago State University in America while he himself is not sure of his own name in Nigeria.

The presidential aide said the irony is that Atiku wants Nigerians to accept the affidavit regarding his own Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) certificate but at the same time wants Nigerians to reject Tinubu’s own explanation.

He also carpeted Atiku for the alacrity in explaining himself.

Taking to his account on the X platform, Ajayi wrote: “Alhaji Atiku Abubakar went to America to look for President Tinubu’s certificate and to also find out whether he went to school as a female or male, why he himself is not even sure of his own name in Nigeria.

“The name on the WASC certificate he submitted to INEC reads Sadiq Abubakar. We have never known him as Sadiq even as a middle name.

“He has already started explaining himself.

“The PDP candidate said he swore to an affidavit to declare that he Atiku Abubakar is the same person who sat for WASC as Sadiq.

“The irony here is Alhaji Atiku Abubakar wants us to accept his explanation as the true and correct situation of his case while President Tinubu should not enjoy same privilege of presenting his own case before Nigerians.
