2027: I was a lecturer there, Tinubu never attended Chicago State University - Adedeji Doherty

Former lecturer Adedeji Doherty has accused President Bola Tinubu of falsely claiming he attended Chicago State University, stating the Nigerian leader never studied there. Doherty, who worked at Chicago State University from 1985 to 1990 as the director of a program Tinubu allegedly enrolled in, maintains he has personal knowledge of the president's academic history.

He also criticized Education Minister Dr. Tunji Alausa for defending the false claims about Tinubu's education. Doherty warned that the controversy could lead to international legal action and expressed confidence that Nigerians would reject the incumbent at the 2027 general elections due to rising poverty, unemployment, and insecurity. President Tinubu has yet to address these allegations.
