Presentation of WAEC Attestation to President Buhari is a Comedy of Error – AAMV
Atiku Abubakar Media Vanguard (AAMV) has condemned in strong term the National embarrassment President Buhari-led APC government has brought to Nigeria and her citizens.
AAMV’s position was made available to journalists in a press statement jointly signed by its National Coordinator, Hon. Peresine Watchman and the National Publicity Secretary, Comrade Remi Samuel Olorunbunmi on November 6, 2018.
The Statement reads: “Since the news of Buharigate WAEC scam broke out, we thought of not making comments, but we had to review our earlier stance on this because of the love we have for our dear country, Nigeria. It’s so embarrassing to Nigeria as a nation and Nigerians as citizens that a government that promised Nigerians change and claimed to have been fighting corruption, has coerced WAEC to issue an attestation “letter” or “certificate” to President Buhari who did not even sit for WAEC in 1961 as revealed by WAEC Headquarters in Ghana.
“PMB told Nigerians that his WAEC certificate was with Nigerian Army Board which the Army authority had denied. An investigation had also revealed that PMB did not even sit for WAEC in 1961 rather he was selected with recommendation letter to be enlisted into Nigerian Army.
“Shameful enough, PMB’s clownish associates converged in ASO Rock to celebrate this belated, shameful and self-deceptive 1961 school Certificate ‘convocation’ to cause Nigeria international embarrassment.
“How come Nigeria, a country that is blessed with natural and human resources, with best brains was ridiculed to this extend before the international Community? Even the Vice President Osinbajo who happens to be a Pastor and Professor of Law, a supposed alternative turbine to drive the nation’s political, social and economic affairs through enabling policies and strategy, has prioritized rehearsal on “shaku shaku” dance steps ahead of 2019 general elections.
“Atiku Abubakar Media Vanguard therefore calls on Nigerians, home and diaspora to unite and rescue Nigeria by mobilizing massively to vote en masse for Atiku/Obi joint ticket in 2019 presidential elections, to salvage Nigeria from anarchy, opprobrium, poverty, killings and economy comatose APC-led Federal Government has led Nigeria into.
“There is no iota of doubt that Atiku/Obi joint PDP presidential ticket will get Nigeria working again.”
