Nigerian Man Drags Buhari To Court Over WAEC Certificate Saga

A Nigerian man has filed a suit against President Muhammadu Buhari and his alleged inability to provide his academic credential ahead of the 2019 presidential election.

Itsede Kingley in his suit asked the Federal High Court sitting in Lagos to declare President Muhammadu Buhari ineligible to participate in the forthcoming presidential election.

In the originating summons, Itsede prayed the court to declare that an affidavit President Buhari attached to his credentials instead of his certificates which he submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) were null and void.

He also sought an order from the court mandating INEC to bar the president from contesting in 2019.

However, no date has been fixed for the commencement of hearing of the case with number FHC/U18/1765/18.
