I’m scratching my head how Tinubu got a degree without going through Primary and Secondary Schools – Atiku 

Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has knocked President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his claim of having a degree from Chicago State University (CSU) without showing the same proof of the primary and secondary schools he attended. 

In a post on X, Atiku, who is currently challenging Tinubu’s Chicago State University Degree in a court in the United States, wondered how Nigeria ended up in a situation where the educational records of the president is shrouded in confusion. 

He said: “I woke up this morning wondering how we got to this cul de sac. In 1999, @officialABAT claimed he attended St. John’s Primary School, Aroloya, Lagos, before proceeding to Children Home School in Ibadan. 

“According to him, his next port of call in his educational journey was Government College Ibadan and, Richard Daley College and Chicago State University in the United States. Curiously, in 2023, Tinubu settled with attending only @ChicagoState. I am scratching my head. How is that possible? 

“Methinks that all well-meaning Nigerians should be as confused as I am with Tinubu’s declaration that he had no primary and secondary education, yet he has a university degree. You may wish to #AskTinubu how he attained this feat so that we can learn from his ingenuity 😆 -AA.”
