the APC chieftain in Rivers State said President Tinubu should save members of the ruling party from disgrace and free himself from the looming global bad record.
President Bola Tinubu has been begged to allow Atiku Abubakar, the flagbearer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 presidential election, to have access to his academic record at Chicago State University (CSU) to save the country from embarassment.
The call was made by Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers state.
In an interview with The Sun, the APC chieftain in Rivers State said President Tinubu would save members of the ruling party from disgrace and free himself from the looming global bad record if he allowed Atiku to have access to his academic record at the Chicago State University.
The former national publicity secretary of the defunct New PDP and member Rotimi Amaechi's camp in the APC made the comment while reacting to the alleged identity fraud about President Bola Tinubu's academic record in the university.
Eze, a known loyalist of the former minister of transportation, who contested against President Tinubu for the APC presidential ticket during the party's primary in 2023, said the president is hiding under the privacy rights of the United States, which is extended to his academic records as well.
According to Eze, Tinubu keeping his academic records was a ploy to frustrate any investigation into his claim that he graduated from CSU, where the certificate he submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
His comment reads in part: “But, the court, in its wisdom, ruled that the interest of Atiku Abubakar in obtaining Tinubu’s records from CSU outweighs his (Tinubu's) privacy rights because by submitting his diploma to INEC, he has put his certificate to issue."
