The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has charged President Muhammadu Buhari to tender his West African Examination Certificate, which he claimed he has to the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal instead of allowing his campaign spokesperson, Festus Keyamo, to insult the sensibility of Nigerians with lame attempt at diversionary tactics.
The party also called on Nigerians to note that in claiming that an aspirant did not need WAEC certificate but the ability to speak English, to contest for the office of the President, the Buhari Presidency through Festus Keyamo had finally admitted that President Buhari did not have a WAEC certificate as he claimed in his INEC form.
The party which was reacting through its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan to the statements credited to Keyamo, said it was completely inexcusable for President Buhari to swear to an affidavit to claim an educational qualification he did not possess.
PDP added that an attempt to deceive the public using a defective reading and skewed interpretation of a section of the constitution cannot exonerate President Buhari adding that Section 295 of the 1999 Constitution (as amended) was very clear on issues of interpretations and reference to questions of law.
PDP therefore maintained that the onus was on President Buhari, as ‘Mr. Integrity’ to tender the certificate he claimed to possess before the tribunal instead of this lame diversion from Presidential aides.
