The first thing you need to learn is that the "rule of law" has nothing to do with the constitution. It is a legal principle and not a legal requirement. "The rule of law" and the literal wording of phrase are two different things

If the Electoral body has not disqualified him and you think they should because he has not satisfied the legal requirement for the position he is seeking, go to court and prove your case. If he thinks he has satisfied the requirements set by the constitution and there is no objection from the electoral body, showing his certificate after swearing to an affidavit is optional and he can choose not to. If that will make you vote for the other candidate, so be it as far as he is concerned.

Now, Since INEC is not complaining and you are, Let us know when you are in court but till then, You will only rant and rave on NL and he will be on the ballot on the 14th so save your breath.

I am sure you are not a lawyer and that is why you made the comment that there is no nexus between the concept of rule of law and the constitution. Every law student and lawyer knows this constitutional principle and I wont argue with u on it. I won't be making any headway explaining this intricate concept with u.

The more pressing issue I would respond is the issue of honesty and fulfilment of the Constitutional requirements. The position of the law is that the a candidate must be qualified educational to be President. And whose obligations is it to show that he is educational qualified? is it the Person vying for the post or INEC? surely, u know the answer.

and finally, u stated that INEC is not complaining. I agree with u on that part. whatever the reasons for INEC not demanding to see the copies of his educational certificates is beyond my knowledge but from the statement of the INEC spokesperson, the Commission would prefer the constitutional interpretation of the section by the Court so that the issue could be settled fully.

Thanks

Right Wing Red Necks: Yeah!! We heard your wife use to be a man! How about uh?

Obama: Like I said you can kiss my pink behind!


Even if Buhari give his detractors a certificate carved in stone, they will still be asking for something else. Like the satire above shows, its a waste of energy and futile, trying to to please a human whose mind is overly crooked over an issue, when they can easily call white as black without even flinching.
Instead of working hard helping the candidate of your choice, you resort to cheap propaganda and insult, thereby indirectly shoring up your opponent's base against your own candidate.
An average northerner even those in PDP will see this an an insult to their collective wellbeing as a people on how an average southerner think of them as illiterate if they can call one of the elite an illiterate.
Why do you think northern politicians had kept mute over this issue, including those in the PDP?

Yes it's actually laughable because APC leadership had continually shown Nigerians how deranged and notorious they are. The likes if Fashola, Osinbajo, Rochas should be ashamed of themselves associating with a stack illiterate, and even projecting him as a presidential candidate is the height of stupidity ever seen on the face if this earth.

A stack illiterate is someone who cannot read or write in any language.

So you agree that your rants and raves are meaningless because he will still be on the ballot and the entire purpose of your argument an tears are already defeated?

Since you wont go to court and INEC wont disqualify him. What are you going to do next?

Jwonder:
So una still neva see the certificate wey una dey look for.. CHISOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


E b lyk say Buhari no get Certificate tru tru ooh!!!
And why has Tifnubu(Mr Toronto) not said anything about this certificate issue naa!!!!


CHISOS!!!!!!!

So buhari is truly an *look left, looks right*

[size=18pt] Illiterate!!!!!!!!![/size]

u wan kill me with loughter

Buhari has been able to scale through in the military bec of what is still the norm,in d force today, ie "nepotism," "namu ni let him go he will learn there", "he is our own, promote,him " etc. The north always promote northern officers to General ranks "qualify or not" and retire other tribes at most colonel ranks. That is,why you see so many northern Generals and fewer ones among other tribes today.

Wait for ur General to cry again after losing the elections. a record fourth time.

hope that answers ur question?

Despite the fact that all nigerian politicians are the same ,still nigerian can't tolerate a party that lies and doesn't feel any shame about it . A party that is openly lying about the academic qualification of its presidential candidate is not a party the founding fathers of this great nation nigeria will like to see rule this country. Despite the fact that pdp isn't perfect or the best ,they always try to do their own magomago within the loopholes of the law. But apc is virtually telling nigerians to go to hell and that nigeria has no choice but to bend and kiss the feet of tinubu and buhari if they want any change. The question nigerians should be asking apc is ,is buhari the only competent candidate they have for the presidency? if so then,it means nigeria doesn't yet have a credible alternative party to pdp.

APC chairman Oyegun technically said Buhari does not have a school certificate but has something equivalent to it...

Eziachi:
A stack illiterate is someone who cannot read or write in any language.

The word is fraud if proven beyond reasonable doubt.
I must condemn the way APC has handled this issue, I would rather they shout up, let this blown over or respond with proof to any one or organization that drags it to court.
But instead they release very condescending statements that further jeopardize there integrity, and paints the picture that anything goes in Nigeria and nothing can be done about it.

mostfavoured:


you are a shameless goat, are you a tout? eho dey fight boxing for here...if your candidate get certificate make una provide am and stop blabbing.

Ewu....

So you mean you will keep crying on nairaland but Buhari's name will be on the ballot and you won't be able to do anything about it even thou you are literate?

ndo

hazyfm:


cheers

You need not altered my post to pass your point across. God bless President GEJ.

Proving beyond reasonable doubt is not done on Nairaland.
If I were them, I wont be bothering answering the question. Because it a waste of breath, meaningless and has no value. If Jonathan was the first graduate to rule Nigeria, maybe Buhari will broke another record of becoming your first illiterate leader, ie if he wins.
There is always a first time for everything. So deal with it.

Since when does Nigerian politicians and their supporters, an agents for the truth?

A party that is openly lying about the academic qualification of its presidential candidate is not a party the founding fathers of this great nation nigeria will like to see rule this country.

Since we are in the crusade for the truth, who told us few months ago that they had signed a ceasefire with Boko Haram and Chibok girl will be release at any given moment? And we were congratulating. What happened?

Despite the fact that pdp isn't perfect or the best ,they always try to do their own magomago within the loopholes of the law.

Who is looking for perfection in the first place. If you knew there was a loophole to be exploited, why are you whining knowing that it's an exercise in futility?

But apc is virtually telling nigerians to go to hell and that nigeria has no choice but to bend and kiss the feet of tinubu and buhari if they want any change.

And it took you this long to figure it out that they are telling you that, not only to go to hell but also to go and .... all along?

The question nigerians should be asking apc is ,is buhari the only competent candidate they have for the presidency? if so then,it means nigeria doesn't yet have a credible alternative party to pdp.

Not the Nigerians on their side that doesn't give a damn about what you think. They had a primary, and he was elected among those that declared interest. He may not be competent for you but he is over competent with them and that is life. And has a 50-50 chance of becoming your president.
On the election day you have the chance to reject him and vote for your 10 other competent choices.

elantraceey:
smh


I once said they made a wrong decision for making Buhari their flag bearer against Jonathan it sounded like a joke , now let's watch out who laughs lasts .

It just pains me that Nigeria will suffer four years in the hands of president Jonathan just because other parties couldn't bring up a competent adversary.

Same thing I tried to sink into the dead brain of buhari's almajiri here, their brain is just as blunt as that of buhari

Bitterleafsoup:
APC is laughing at Nigerians because they think we are kidding...
http://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/headlines/174319-laughable-claim-buhari-no-school-certificate-apc-chairman-oyegun.html

Is only in Nigeria where you can see a citizens on the internet asking their former head of state and retired military general to show his school certificate. This shows us that we are still uncivilised in the sight of the world

Ovie56:
[size=20pt]just show us the fvcking certificate so we can join you in laughing

Or resent it to Inec shikena[/size]

ovie. from all indication you didin t even go school becouse you asking the question of invicile. one time Head of state and Commander In chief of the arm. force of nig. to be frank if your memory is not working. its advisable you better visit a doctor. very surprised Buhari show me your Certificates ? pls you better exhibit a very good behavior shut your mouth and allowed the superior and very self actualised people of the nation to asked such question pls.

What is really the problem with the certificate that it has refused to come out? I suspect buhari's government (if he wins which I doubt ) won't be transparent and might as well be worse than the present administration

There are some things we should never been seen condoning in this country for the sake of our children future. It is either you have certificate to show that you went to school or you do not have. What is the meaning of certificate is with the military or is kept somewhere for Gods sake. This country has gone past this type argument for a presidential candidate. I have said it before its either we Nigerians wake up and seek out a true Nigerian made leader who understands our challenges and has the magic wand to turn it around and not some opportunist or some hell bent dictator who must rule this country before they die.

Aigipan:


You did not answer my question.

I said his name will be on the ballot, so what are you going to do about it?

Reject him. He is another Shagari in the making and we knew what Nigeria(ns) suffered under Shagari due to his low educational acumen. Once bitten twice shy.

mormoni:
My contributions are:
1) Praying for GMB
2) Voting for GMB

This certificate stuff is just a mere allegation.

Only the blinds will follow the blind. In modern leadership, sound education matters even if you surround yourself with the best educated. Many a times the buck stops on the leader's table and thats when education matters. This is 21st and not 15th century.

Just show the cert and the laughing will stop

Ionno

Mr chairman, i beg your pardon ? Anyway it may be laughable to the APC because its a party where anything goes. But no certificate, no vote because while an educated clueless can wake up and become clueful, an uneducated illiterate remains diseased. It is even rumoured that Buhari never passed any military course. The onus is on APC to show contrary proof.

Your english is enough proof of your level of education. And as much as I'll like not to dish out insult for your I'll also like to remind you the question is not directed to you

And bro
You can also take sometime to learn about tense from one of your siblings preferably some in nursery school..mumu

Some office seekers without certificate will say it is" time for change"but while they were changing from one name to another and from one party to another,we had already brought change to Nigeria. My dear,has change not come to our railway system?has change not come to our airports?Has change not come to our road network?Has change not come to our electoral process?Has change not come to our agricultural sector?Has change not come to Almajiri education? Is change not coming to the power sector? What we need today is to consolidate on our gains in order to secure our future. #GEJtill2019
