Although he had never hidden his hope that Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate wins his case against President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Election Tribunal, PDP chieftain Reno Omokri, has confirmed the authenticity of the President’s Chicago State University Degree.

Mr. Omokri confessed that he had once visited Chicago State University with the aim of exposing Tinubu only to discover that the man actually graduated from the university.

Omokri in a tweet on Friday, shared a memo dated June 27, 2022, with the headline “To Whom it may Concern” which he got from the office of the registrar, Chicago State University.

According to the office, Tinubu actually attended the institution from 1977 to 1979 and was awarded a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration.

Omokri was responding to the decision of the election tribunal to admit certified copies of the academic and work records of President Bola Tinubu tendered by the PDP and its candidate, Atiku Abubakar.

He further explained that he met with officials and did a video coverage to back his claims and urged anyone who doubts the memo he got from the institution to go there in person or inquire there in writing.

According to him, Tinubu is not a saint but if Nigerians keep attacking him based on lies, God will just keep disappointing people further and making Tinubu greater.

In his words, “I worked for Waziri Atiku Abubakar to win. I pray he unseats Tinubu at the Presidential Election Petition Court. And I am not pursuing any political appointment, or job offer from Tinubu.

“However, it is false to assert that Bola Tinubu did not attend Chicago State University. I went there physically. I did a video broadcast from their campus. I met their officials. Tinubu attended and graduated Chicago State University with honours, and they even have a photo of him in their alumni office as one of their most accomplished alumni.

“Not only did I go there physically to expose Tinubu (only to find out that he attended), I also asked their registry to put what they told me in writing.

“Attached is the letter they gave me. You can also go there physically, as I did, or email or phone them if you doubt this letter given to me.

“The man is no saint. His past cartel links indelibly taint him. But let us be fair, honest and transparent as we oppose him. If we attack Tinubu based on lies, God will just disappoint us further and appoint him greater.”
