The problem with some of you who are Buharist is that you will never give reasoning a chance so even after being provided with evidence, you will still be preposterous.
For what you asked for,

See SECTION 131(D) (I hope you have a copy of the constitution)

The problem with you is that you are ignoramus, thinking everybody that have contrary opinion about the subject of discussion is a politician. Constitution is so wide in meaning and interpretation: stop believing that you have known it all.

For your information, in Section 318(1) of the said constitution, it becomes crystal clear, upon a careful reading of the said Interpretation Section, that even persons whose educational qualifications are below the Secondary School Leaving Certificate/level and its equivalent are still qualified to contest election, if they possess the Primary Six School Leaving Certificate or its equivalent along with the other requirements listed under the said definition Section (Section 318(1)).

For the avoidance of doubt, Section 318(1) provides:

“School Certificate or its equivalent” means -

(a) A Secondary School Certificate or its equivalent, or Grade II Teacher’s Certificate, the City and Guilds Certificate; or

(b) Education up to Secondary School Certificate level; or

(c) Primary Six School Leaving Certificate or its equivalent and-

(i) service in the public or private sector in the Federation in any capacity acceptable to the Independent National Electoral Commission for a minimum of ten years, and

(ii) attendance at courses and training in such institutions as may be acceptable to the Independent National Electoral Commission for periods totaling up to a minimum of one year, and

(iii) The ability to read, write, understand and communicate in the English language to the satisfaction of the Independent National Electoral Commission; and

(d) Any other qualification acceptable by the Independent National Electoral Commission;”

Get your fact right.

mrvitalis:

Ok.. but my employer cant wake up and decide for me to show him my certificate there is a process for that

Employer can call your former school at anytime to verify the authenticity of the certificate.

Idiotic reasoning.

Wait oi, who epp buhari put a recent coloured passport photograph for hin 'result' ?

mrvitalis:
This people are dumb actually.. to actually think a major General doesn't have a minimum of weac is stupidity

Wait have u asked urself why no political party to the matter to the tribunal


Make una get small sense for once

Bros what is there in presenting it? If the original is missing let him write to Cambridge. I did a confirmation of my JAMB result. Buhari can do same.

mrvitalis:

U wonder why he was allowed to contest? ?
Do u also wonder why PDP and other parties didn't take the matter to court??
The ans js simple there was no case

it was because of people like u... Buhari alleged that his certificate is with the army and your type and Apc concluded that Gej is behind the army not to produce the certificate and political atmosphere was already charged, so Gej as a gentleman decided to allow him just like the way he congratulated him even before election results were announced... after they fooled your likes you're here still defending the dullard instead of upholding what the constitution said by demanding his certificate

mrvitalis:

Force the judges to do what??

Force the judge to resign

mrvitalis:

And PDP agreed for tge out of court settlements??

Pdp didn't challenge his credentials in court.The lawyer did.

martineinstein:

Shey na your father award am masters degree. When diploma turn masters degree ?

Can you show me the section of Nigerian constitution that specifically mentioned WAEC Certificate as the requirements for the Office of President?

Chapter VI, part 1 A, section 131(d),

OBAGADAFFI:


It about political parties.

It's about Mr President proving he is a man of integrity.

If your employer accused of not having the required certificate, It is you job to prove otherwise.

no, is the job of the employer to do the needful, and we the good people of Nigeria have done the needful

mrvitalis:

olisaEze:



Chapter VI, part 1 A, section 131(d),

Ok. Apart from the fact that no constitution mention WAEC Certificate, please be assured that anybody can contest for political post in Nigeria even without having School Certificate.

The meaning of "School Cert and its equivalent" in Section 318 is as follows and I want you to tell me how PMB didn't qualify even without having WAEC Certificate.

In Section 318(1) of the said constitution, it becomes crystal clear, upon a careful reading of the said Interpretation Section, that even persons whose educational qualifications are below the Secondary School Leaving Certificate/level and its equivalent are still qualified to contest election, if they possess the Primary Six School Leaving Certificate or its equivalent along with the other requirements listed under the said definition Section (Section 318(1)).

Any contrary opinion?

Clinton9000:
I went for a job interview and they demanded that I show my certificate, I tell them I'm coming, the next day the company gets a call from 15 of my lawyers. The company asks what's all these nonsense for, My lawyers responded...since you want to see my client's certificate, no problem, we will see in court.

I know this sounds very stupid but that's essentially what Buhari is doing. After watching this video, you realize that Nigerians are actually fools for voting a president without a certificate and what's even more asinine is he went and hired 15 SANs, who in the world hires lawyers because you asked for their certificate

Some people are actually zombies. What this man said is actually clear and logical. But the problem is hypocrisy. I don't blame Pmb. I blame the zombies who always choose not to see any wrong in what he does. SMh.

No objection to all you have said. But which one does Pmb have ? Afterall, the Army doesn't have the record of his WAEC/equivalent qualification.

Look, Cambridge can settle this matter once and for all.

They are the 'employer' in this case and they have said that they will react if they get the go ahead from the supposed student i.e Buhari but Buhari has refused to reach out to Cambridge and the question is why?

Why is Buhari avoiding Cambridge?

vislabraye:

Let even agree that he has no up to Secondary School Certificate level.



1. Didn't he possess Primary Six School Leaving Certificate or its equivalent too?

2. As a military personnel who rose to the rank of General: has he not spent up to ten years in public service?

3. As an army General, he has attended external courses and training in such institutions for periods totaling up to a minimum of one year.

4. While I can't guarantee his writing and composition skill (same thing found among Nigerian graduates of nowadays), I am sure he can read, write, understand and communicate in the English language.

This is my submission.

Oga, we are not disputing all these.

Buhari told INEC that he had WASC and on that basis he was allowed to contest.

Now the simple question is where is the WASC Buhari claimed to have?

It means he contested fraudulently for the post of President not because he did not have any of those other things you listed but because he told us that he had a WASC?

Don't you get it?

Sweetle:

Now the simple question is where is the WASC Buhari claimed to have?

There are some things that are immaterial in the court of law so far other requirements have been met. Have you not heard of a Governor who withdrew his disputed ND/HND Certificate from INEC and latter used his SSCE?

It is just like claiming you have two cars while contesting for a title in your Association where only one car is the requirement: of what importance is contesting the authenticity of the second car when all members of your association are not doubting the genuiness of the first one?

The only thing that can happen is to withdraw the particular of the second one to clear yourself from mess.

mrvitalis:

So PDP cant afford 500 SANs to fight Buhari??

My friend , we know he presented NEPA BILLS certificate but never mind, since your buhari refused to murder this case by showing his school certificate, this case will definitely murder his entire career one day, the doom day is only being postponed now, it is not over now.

I am not a lawyer but my simple question is this, why is Buhari avoiding Cambridge?

Why has he not contacted Cambridge but instead hired a legion of SANs just because of a WASC he claimed to have?

Cambridge can clear the air once and for all and the only logical reason why Buhari has refused to contact them is because he never sat for WASC.

End of story.

Sweetle:

Don't you get it?

It seems you don't get my point. It is still immaterial so far other conditions have been met in that WAEC Certificate is just one of the requirements. For instance, will you be detained by the employer of labour if you apply for any job you have no qualification for?

The worst thing is that you will not be employed, which means INEC can only disqualify him, Shikena!

You clearly didn't answer the question cos you are in no position to determine what is immaterial to the court or not in this case.

If they were immaterial, the 13 SANS deployed wouldn't have used technicality to adjoin the case indefinitely when they were rattled by the lawsuit.

In the eyes of the law, he may be able to get away with this as you say but for intelligent citizens like myself, he lied to the INEC.

He ought to have just listed any other of those requirements on your list and on that basis, contest the elctions.

Why lie to us claiming to have what you don't have and you take a posture like the most ritheous and holy man on earth

Is like u benefited from curruption and jugdes loot. These jugdes who must have sentenced somebody that stole a phone of 20,000naira to 5 yrs imprisonment, or an innocent person to jail once money changes hand -peverting justice, yet they are highly corrupt. Ur hate for PMB wont lead u anywhere. YES the jugdes are being taken to court already.

richidinho:


Then he shld allow the court to force the judges as well

Buhari and his WAEC certificate or lack there of will go down in history.

Nigerians are the most highly educated nationality in America, which is a good representation of their worldwide average, and they chose to "elect" a man with less education than most of our semi-literate grandparents in the village.

We made a mockery of ourselves, by ourselves.

.... Nothing is impossible in Nigeria. you should have also reasoned why the president would prefer going thru the stress of hiring over 20SANs to defend him when he would have @least proved his critics wrong by providing his cert. to the public. let be realistic in our judgement.

Forget Nigerian SANS and their grammatical thunder: if you see the way some of them handle cases, you will be surprised. Have you not heard of a situation where court stroke out a legal tussle on the ground that SANS hired do not know the right court which have the jurisdiction to handle the matter despite years of experience in litigations?

He qualified based on the archaic constitution we are using which can no longer stand the test of time.

When you use your data to discuss rubbish instead of making money. It is well with the visionless youth of this country.
