Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party is calling on the opposition party’s presidential candidates Rabiu Kwankwaso, Peter Obi of the NNPP and Labour Party to join forces with him in unravelling the truth behind the academic certificate of President Bola Tinubu.

This call was made at the world press conference on Thursday, held by Atiku and his party in Abuja.

Atiku who lost at the presidential election petition tribunal after challenging the victory of Tinubu, said he would only drop his battle against the president of the nation pending the judgment of the Supreme Court of Nigeria.

Earlier the judgement delivered by the the allegation of certificate forgery was dismissed by the tribunal but Atiku went further to a court in the United States which ordered the Chicago State University to release Tinubu’s academic records to him.

Atiku alleged discrepancies in the certificate Tinubu submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission and seeks to include it in his appeal at the Supreme Court.

The PDP presidential candidate said the case of certificate forgery has become a national disgrace that must be addressed well for the sanity of the nation.

“The reputation of Nigeria is at stake. I am a Democrat by conviction and a citizen of a country that I love.

“This quest is not for or about Atiku Abubakar. It is a quest for the enthronement of truth, morality and accountability in our public affairs.

“In line with this, therefore, I am calling on all well-meaning Nigerians, leaders of thought, our religious leaders, our traditional leaders, our community leaders, our political leaders, and in particular, Governor Peter Obi of the Labour Party and Governor Rabiu Kwankwaso of the NNPP and, the leaders of every political party in Nigeria. And, indeed, every single person who loves this country, as I do, and who wishes nothing but the best for the country, as I do, to join me in this campaign to enshrine probity, accountability and the basic principles of justice, morality and uprightness in our country and our government.”
