Just few
days after the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Muhammadu
Buhari, explained in an affidavit submitted to the Independent National
Electoral Commission, INEC, that all his academic credentials were with the
Military Board, the Army have denied holding such documents.
General
Buhari has never had qualifications controversy having contested the
presidential election four times under different political parties including
the defunct All Nigeria People’s Party, ANPP and the Congress for Progressive
Change, CPC, until the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, recently described
him as a ‘’semi- illiterate.’’
Read what a
military source said as reported by the Vanguard:
“The
original certificate of any officer or soldier is only needed at the point of
entry into the service either as a cadet officer entering the Nigerian Defence
Academy, or the recruitment officers when interviewing recruits to be sent to
the depot for training. That is so, because they are needed to verify what were
in the photocopies supplied by them or from the necessary examining bodies.”
“Let me tell you now, in the Navy, the Navy
Secretary, NAVSEC, keep the documents of all Naval officers and ratings and not
their original certificates which are their personal property”.
