‘2027 my last election, Tinubu’s educational certificates forged’ – Atiku claims

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar announced during a Facebook live session that his 2027 presidential election campaign will be his final run for the Nigerian presidency. Atiku, who has been vying for the presidency for years, secured the party's ticket for another bid in the upcoming election. Throughout his political career, Atiku has held various roles, including serving as Vice President from 1999 to 2007, and has shifted affiliations with different political parties.

In a controversial statement, Atiku alleged that President Bola Tinubu's academic credentials are fraudulent. He emphasized that Nigeria's president should not face questions about his educational background. "I was the one who raised the issue surrounding President Bola Tinubu's academic certificates, and I stand by my position that there was forgery," Atiku stated. The former Vice President reiterated that it is unacceptable for the President of Nigeria to have doubts about his academic qualifications.
