Onanuga Reacts To Report On Atiku Forging WAEC Result

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bayo Onanuga,  has reacted to reports concerning the name, which appears on the secondary school certificate submitted by Atiku Abubakar to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Naija News understands the disclosure that Sadiq Abubakar and not Atiku is the name on the WAEC certificate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate in the 2023 elections, has generated fresh reactions on the political scene.

Following the disclosure of the discrepancy, Atiku, on Tuesday, denied forging the certificate through one of his allies and media personality, Dele Momodu.

According to Momodu, the former vice president used the name Sadiq for his WAEC exam and, after that, swore to an affidavit that Sadiq Abubakar was the same person as Atiku Abubakar.

He said“Yes, I used Sadiq Abubakar to sit for my WAEC, and after passing my exams, I went to swear an affidavit to say I am the same person as ATIKU Abubakar.

“I went to ABU as Atiku Abubakar and passed my Exams as Atiku Abubakar. Interviewed as Atiku Abubakar by the Federal Civil Service Commission and hired into the Customs Service as Atiku Abubakar. So where is forgery there?’

Reacting to the development in a post on his X handle on Wednesday, Onanuga mocked the former vice president over the controversy surrounding his WAEC certificate.

The former Director of Media and Publicity of the Tinubu/Shettima Campaign said Atiku is the one with the real identity crisis.

He wrote: “Atiku or Siddiq Abubakar? The man with the real identity crisis.”
