PDP’s Case Against Tinubu Takes a Turn as Tribunal Admits Chicago University, NYSC Certificates

The PDP and Abubakar allege that Tinubu is ineligible to run for president because he did not provide documentation proving that he graduated from the University of Chicago and completed his National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) program. The certified copies of Tinubu’s academic and work records could potentially prove that he is eligible to run for president.

Trackloaded NG reports that the documents presented as evidence include President Tinubu’s B.Sc certificate from Chicago State University, his NYSC Discharge Certificate, and a certificate of service from Mobil Nigeria Oil Plc.

During the court proceedings, PDP’s subpoenaed witness, Mike Enahoro Ebah Esq, revealed detail about these documents. He pointed out that Tinubu purportedly obtained them, but surprisingly, they bore the name ‘Bola Adekunle Tinubu’.

Led by PDP counsel Chris Uche (SAN), the witness also submitted forms EC13 and EC9, which are nomination forms, along with letters addressed to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as supporting attachments.

However, the admissibility of these documents faced objections from the legal representatives of INEC, counsel to President Tinubu, Emmanuel Ukala (SAN), and the APC, Lateef Fagbemi (SAN).
