Tanko’s Remarks on Tinubu’s Academic Credentials
Yunusa Tanko, the National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement Worldwide, said the controversy surrounding President Bola Tinubu’s academic qualifications will persist until questions about his eligibility are conclusively addressed.
He argued that the documents published by the electoral commission have failed to resolve concerns raised about Tinubu’s educational history.
“There is no need for us to continue debating this. Every Nigerian knows this man is not qualified academically. This is a big issue,” Tanko alleged.
Tanko maintained that the burden lies on the President and the appropriate authorities to provide evidence that would settle the matter.
“Until it is proven that he is qualified, the controversy will continue. It is disgusting and embarrassing for INEC to even post it the way it did,” he stated.
He added that the publication of the documents did not answer the questions being raised by critics and opposition figures.
Tanko called for the issue to be formally challenged through the appropriate legal and institutional processes.
“It is a condemnable act because we know he is not qualified. It is a terrible thing, and we need to challenge it,” he added.
