Nigerians have asked President Muhammadu Buhari to order the Secretary of the Military Board to release his certificates to the Independent Electoral, Commission.
The Independent National Electoral Commission had on Thursday published a list of over 70 candidates, who are participating in the 2019 presidential elections and their credentials.
However, Buhari failed to attach necessary documents to his bid sent to INEC by his party, the All Progressives Congress, insisting that they were in the custody of the military.
In the affidavit which he swore to, Buhari said, “I am the above-named person and the deponent of this affidavit herein. All my academic qualification documents as filled in my Presidential form, APC/001/2015 are currently with the Secretary of the Military Board as of the time of this affidavit.”

How did we get this point where @MBuhari was elected @NGR President without a WAEC result, in a country who’s total population’s literacy level is at 59.6% (male: 69.2%, female: 49.7% as at January 20, 2018)?

This thing is embarrassing to Nigeria and the rest of us – The President is presiding over Nigeria without any document and the document we are even talking about is the least of academic qualifications in the country – he has spent years out of office unbothered to re-educateKhaleesi
@AbangMercy
This thing Buhari is doing and walking away with- one day we will all see it in much clearer terms- if INEC is demanding for WAEC, why can’t Buhari approach WAEC for a reissue ? Why does he keep telling that BS story about the military? It is the silliest narrative ever out the
80% of several other reactions not uploaded were saying thesame thing, demanding president Buhari to order the military to release his credentials for submission to INEC.
