Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) in Zaria has initiated measures to verify the academic credentials of one of its professors, Arc. Abdullahi Abubakar. The university has come across the professor's qualifications through a viral social media post and is set to make a statement post-investigation. Awwal Umar, the Director of Public Affairs at ABU, has confirmed the development and stated that the university will respond when it has established the facts, emphasizing that no hasty conclusions will be drawn.
The professor's profile boasts an extensive list of qualifications, including five PhDs, five master's degrees, 7 degrees, 11 diplomas, and other academic credentials, which has sparked both interest and concern, given his role in teaching, research, and other scholarly activities. Attempts to contact the professor for a reaction have so far been unsuccessful, with his only response via text message indicating that he is aware of the inquiry but prefers not to comment at the moment.
