PDP chieftain Adetokunbo Pearse has questioned President Bola Tinubu’s educational background, insisting that he never studied at Chicago State University. He also accused Tinubu of submitting incorrect school records to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Speaking on News Central TV, Pearse said he worked at the university from 1985 to 1990 and served as director of the programme Tinubu allegedly attended. He claimed he had access to information about the president’s academic records when people sought details about them in 1999.
Pearse also accused Education Minister Tunji Alausa of misleading the public by defending Tinubu’s academic history. He further criticised the administration over rising poverty, unemployment and insecurity, while warning that the controversy could have international legal consequences.
