President Tinubu’s legal team alleges that Atiku Abubakar presented falsified certificates to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), igniting serious questions about the former vice president’s educational background.
The crux of President Tinubu’s allegations is the use of different names on two crucial academic certificates by Atiku.
According to the claims put forth by the president’s legal team, Atiku is said to have used the name “Atiku Kojoli” on his primary school certificate and adopted the name “Siddiq Abubakar” on his 1965 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) certificate.
This counter-appeal is a direct response to Atiku’s previous legal action at the Supreme Court, where he accused the President of presenting a counterfeit certificate to INEC in the run-up to the 2023 elections.
