Presidential
candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Alhaji Muhammadu Buhari, did
not present his academic qualifications to the Independent National Electoral
Commission, INEC, even as he prepares for the 2015 presidential contest.
Unlike
his Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, counterpart, President Goodluck Jonathan,
whose academic certificates were conspicously displayed by the commission upon
presentation, Buhari’s credentials were visibly without trace at the
commission’s office at Area 10, Abuja.
The
former Head of State, explained in an affidavit he deposed, which he submitted
to the commission that all his academic credentials were with the Secretary,
Military Board.
The
affidavit deposed at the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, High Court, Abuja and
dated November 24,2014, was stamped and received at INEC headquarters on
December 18, 2014.
In the
affidavit, Buhari said: “All my academic qualifications (documents) as filled
in my presidential form, President APC/001/2015, are currently with the
Secretary Military Boards as at the time of this affidavit.”
He added:
“The affidavit is made in good faith and for record purpose.”
