Academic credentials of the presidential candidate of the
All Progressives Congress (APC), General Muhammadu Buhari, have been made
public.
The results, obtained exclusively Wednesday, confirm Mr.
Buhari’s claim that he undertook the University of Cambridge West African
School Certificate Examinations and obtained five credits in English Language,
Geography, Hausa Language, History, and Health Science.
The computer printout from Cambridge University as well as a
statement of result, signed by the current principal of Katsina College, dated
January 21, 2015, was obtained.
The results show that Mr. Buhari, a former military head of
state, failed in Mathematics and Woodwork, and had a pass in Literature in
English.
The examination centre number was 8280 while Mr. Buhari’s
candidate number was 002.
The statement of results is printed on the letter head paper
of the Katsina State Ministry of Education, and it shows that the examination
took place in 1961.
The Cambridge print out also shows the result of 17 other
candidates at the centre, including Shehu Yar’adua, a former Chief of Staff,
Supreme Headquarters.
Controversy over Mr. Buhari’s result escalated Tuesday after
the Nigerian Army, which had earlier admitted to having a copies of his
certificate, reversed itself saying it could not even attest to the details
listed in his records.
The spokesperson of the Army, Olajide Laleye, said “Neither
the original copy, certified true copy (CTC) nor statement of result of
Major-.Gen. Mohammadu Buhari‘s WASC result is in his personal file.” PREMIUM
