KALU TELLS TINUBU TO TELL NIGERIANS PRIMARY, SECONDARY SCHOOLS HE ATTENDED

August 4, 2026 • Dons Eze • 1 min read

A chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Kalu Kalu, has challenged President Bola Tinubu to tell Nigerians the primary and secondary schools he attended.

Kalu threw the challenge to the President on Monday while appearing as a guest on Channels Television’s Politics Today.

His challenge stems from the publication of the credentials and personal particulars of presidential candidates ahead of the 2027 general elections by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Recall that Tinubu did not list his primary and secondary school qualifications in the educational details section of the personal particulars he submitted to INEC for the 2027 presidential election.

Reacting, Kalu said, “Come and tell Nigerians which primary and secondary schools you attended.

“Even in 2022, in the INEC document he submitted, he claimed he had a National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) certificate.

“And the name on that certificate was Bola Adekunle Tinubu. So where did he get ‘Adekunle’ from? He claimed he graduated, but the certificate was forged.”
