APC presidential candidate in the Saturday, February 14, 2015 election, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari’s certificate mess is getting messier. The Nigerian Army, through its Director of Public Relations, Brig. Gen. Olajide Laleye, on Tuesday, January 20, 2015, denied being in possession of his school cert.! According to them, Buhari, while joining the Army, only claimed to have passed his West African School Certificate examination in 1961, without any document to back it up. ‘Neither the original certified true copy nor the statement of result of Maj. Gen. Buhari’s WASC result is in his personal file…I hope this explanation will put to rest, the raging controversy surrounding the secondary school credentials of Maj. Gen. Buhari as it affects the Nigerian Army’. Controversies, it would be recalled, have continued to trail the 72-year-old Daura, Katsina State born academic qualifications. And the inability of the former Head of State to douse it by showing Nigerians his original certificates are not helping matters. Now the Army which he initially claimed was in possession of them has come out to deny that, thus further making his certificate mess worse. Meanwhile, Buhari is not the first top politician to be enmeshed in a certificate palaver. Former Lagos State Governor, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and one-time Speaker, House of Representatives, Alhaji Salisu Buhari equally swam in the mess.
