Putting an end to the raging controversy of APC Presidential aspirant Mohammadu Buhari's secondary school certificate, the school which the respected General attended has now released his statement of result.
The statement was released by Government College, formerly Provincial Secondary School, Katsina, which Muhammadu Buhari, the All Progressives Congress graduated from in 1961.
The computer printout from Cambridge University as well as a statement of result, signed by the current principal of Katsina College, dated January 21, 2015 has also been released by Premium Times.
The statement of results is printed on the letter head paper of the Katsina State Ministry of Education, and it shows that the examination took place in 1961.
The Cambridge print out also shows the result of 17 other candidates at the centre, including Shehu Yar’adua, a former Chief of Staff, Supreme Headquarters.
Controversy over Mr. Buhari’s result escalated Tuesday after the Nigerian Army, which had earlier admitted to having a copies of his certificate, reversed itself saying it could not even attest to the details listed in his records.
The spokesperson of the Army, Olajide Laleye, said
“Neither the original copy, certified true copy (CTC) nor statement of result of Major-.Gen. Mohammadu Buhari‘s WASC result is in his personal file.”
He said while it is the practice in the Nigerian Army that before candidates are shortlisted for commissioning into the officers’ cadre of the service, the selection board verifies the original copies of credentials as presented, “There is no available record to show that this process was followed in the 1960s.”
The military’s comments came after the retired general had said that his lost copies of results were with the Army, an explanation he gave ahead of elections February 14.
