Buhari’s WASSC: PDP Mocks, Says It Is Political Certificate
The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Friday mocked the celebration by supporters of President Muhammadu Buhari after he was presented with his secondary school certificate by the West African Examination Council, WAEC.
Special Adviser to the President on Media, Mr. Femi Adesina had taken to twitter to celebrate the receipt of the certificate saying “WAEC presents attestation certificate and confirmation of results to President Buhari. What will the naysayers do next?”
The tweet was accompanied with photographs of the president with some of his aides including the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Boss Mustapha, minister of education, Adamu Adamu, among others.
PDP spokesman was, however, not carried away saying to reporters at the PDP headquarters yesterday that the celebration was ill-conceived.
He said:
“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 President Buhari and his handlers are always fretting at the mention of a certificate. 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?
“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 time, was there a condition in WAEC that you must submit your passport to be attached to your certificate?
“You remember the procured Martin Luther Award presented to our President which later was discovered to be fake? This is a similar award,” he said.
