A Labour Party, LP, chieftain, Oseloka Obaze, has released academic certificates of the party’s presidential candidate in the February election.
This was done to debunk the allegation of the National Publicity Secretary of the Lamidi Apapa-led faction of the party, Abayomi Arabambi, that the presidential candidate of the party, Peter Obi, has discrepancies in his credentials.
Arabambi in an interview on AIT, claimed that Obi’s name on his academic certificate from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN), differed from the name written on his NYSC certificate .However, Obaze, in a post on X (formerly known as Twitter) said none of the certificates of the former governor of Anambra State was forged.
Obaze, therefore, shared the photos of Obi’s WASC, Bachelor of Arts (BA) and NYSC certificates in order to shed more light on the authenticity Obi’s credentials.
According to Obaze said integrity and transparency are the basis of leadership.
“As Americans say; ‘Trust But Verify.’ Here are Peter Obi’s WASC, BA and NYSC certificates all verified: Nothing Bogus, Nothing Forged, Nothing Ambiguous. The fundamentals of leadership are integrity and transparency. Comparably, verified documents from CSU Raised More Questions,” he wrote.
