The Chicago State University has confirmed that the Diploma submitted by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is valid.
This was confirmed in an affidavit presented to a court sitting in Chicago by the institution.
“Chicago State University provided a Diploma to Bola Ahmed Tinubu and subsequently provided a certified copy of that Diploma. Both are valid and authentic Diplomas of the Chicago State University.
”There are certain differences between the Diploma and the certified copy because all diplomas are signed by the current President/Board Chairman. There are also differences in the font and seal on the Diploma because the University updated its seal and font after the diploma was issued.

”The difference in the date of award on the diploma versus the certified copy is likely the result of human error. The graduation date on the certified copy is typed in manually by a person and can be inaccurate,” the affidavit read in part.
ThisNigeria reported that a US court in Northern Illinois had ordered CSU to make public, the credentials of President Tinubu, following a suit filed by the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar.
Atiku had requested the documents to back his allegation of forgery of CSU certificate against Tinubu.
