Army: We don't Have Gen Buhari Certificates with Us

             

Few days after the former Head of State and Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Major General Muhammadu Buhari, retd, explained in an affidavit submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, that all his academic credentials were with the Military Board, the Army have stated that they do not keep the certificates of any serving or retired officer or soldier
.

According to Vanguard, The Nigeria Army can not keep anybody’s original certificate because it is the personal property of the owner,’’   

The source also added that the original copies of such certifcates are only needed upon admission into the Military and the army usually kept photocopies of such certificates

"The original certificate of any officer or soldier is only needed at the point of entry into the service either as a cadet officer entering the Nigerian Defence Academy, or the recruitment officers when interviewing recruits to be sent to the depot for training. That is so, because they are needed to verify what were in the photocopies supplied by them or from the necessary examining bodies."

The source finally added that such claim from anyone that the military secretary is in possession of his certificate has 'ulterior motives'
