Tracknews Media has reported that Chicago State University (CSU) released academic records of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, show one of the admis­sion transcripts belongs to a “female”.

In compliance with a United States court subpoena, the university released the records to Atiku Abubakar, the Peo­ples Democratic Party’s (PDP) presiden­tial candidate in the 2023 elections.

The transcript, obtained from South­west College Chicago (SCC), was part of the credentials Tinubu used to gain admission into CSU in 1977.

Another SCC transcript shows Tinubu claimed to have graduated from Government Col­lege, Lagos, in 1970. However, sources said the school was not founded until 1974.

CSU authenticated a replace­ment certificate it issued to Tinubu but could not locate the original one given in 1979.

Judge Nancy Maldonado of United States District Court of Illinois of the District Court in Northern Illinois on September 30 ordered CSU to release the documents against objection from Tinubu.

Previous CSU documents released under an attorney sub­poena show the admission tran­script owner identified herself as “female” born in “1954”, attended “Government College, Lagos”, and is a “Black American”.

The documents also contained Tinubu’s admission records and a letter dated June 27, 2022, con­firming he attended the university from August 1977 to June 1979, majoring in accounting, and was awarded a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with Honours on June 22, 1979.

CSU confirmed in a depo­sition detailing its compliance with the court order that it could grant three of Atiku’s four requests.

It said, “after diligent search”, it was able to locate and produce seven different certificates for the Bachelor of Science degree it is­sued in 1979.

Atiku had requested the documents to compare and contrast them with the one Tinubu presented to the Independent Nation­al Electoral Commission (INEC) for the 2023 presidential election.

CSU produced diploma certificates of other graduates not requested by Atiku.

As Atiku suspected, the documents exposed variations in signato­ries and logo and revealed Tinubu “graduated” from Gov­ernment College, Lagos, in 1970 before attending CSU.
