Former Senate Leader Ali Ndume has advised opposition parties to concentrate on President Bola Tinubu's performance rather than his academic qualifications as the 2027 general elections approach. In a statement published in Abuja, Ndume, a member of the All Progressives Congress, urged opposition presidential candidates to present their alternative economic policies and how they could outperform Tinubu.
He questioned why the candidates should focus on Tinubu's certificates, especially as the President has been in office for over three years. Ndume emphasized that the Constitution only requires candidates to have at least a School Certificate level of education, not a secondary school certificate, a point he claimed had been confirmed by the courts.
He urged the opposition to elevate the political discourse beyond personal attacks, as recommended by Eleanor Roosevelt, who suggested that great minds focus on ideas, while small minds concentrate on people.
