BOLA TINUBU HAS RESPONDED TO THE COURT IN ILLINOIS CHICAGO.
HE SAYS HIS CERTIFICATE IS NOT BEEN CHALLENGED AT THE PRESIDENTIAL TRIBUNAL IN NIGERIA.
You’d recall that today is the final day issued to Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s legal team to respond to the case regarding the Chicago state university certificate saga.
See Bola Tinubu’s response below :

Meanwhile, below is a narrative from @Abdulozy about this case above :
Tinubu’s arguments requires a comprehensive and well-reasoned approach. This will be my approach to counter all the points raised by Tinubu’s lawyers as a Non-Legal person,
I would address each of his points with counterarguments that uphold the validity of Atiku’s application for Bola A. Tinubu’s educational records:
1. Fulfillment of Jurisdictional Issues:
a. Educational Background Raised Later: While it’s true that educational background was not initially raised in the electoral petition, it’s essential to recognize that new evidence can emerge during the course of legal proceedings. Atiku has a legitimate right to seek information that could be pertinent to his case, regardless of when it was initially introduced.
b. Atiku’s Status as an ‘Interested Party’: Atiku’s status as an ‘interested party’ in the Enahoro Case should not be dismissed solely due to not being the direct initiator. If Atiku’s case is intertwined with the matter involving Tinubu’s educational records, his role as an interested party becomes valid. The law should protect his right to seek relevant information.

2. Election Suit Parties and Supreme Court Caution: While the Supreme Court’s caution is noted, each case must be considered on its own merits. The principle of fairness requires that both parties have the opportunity to access necessary evidence to present their case fully. Denying Atiku’s application based solely on the caution might infringe upon his right to a fair trial.
3. Timing of Evidence and Nigerian Court Proceedings: It’s important to remember that evidence from the US District Court might be applicable to other stages of the legal proceedings, even if the Nigerian Tribunal has closed its evidence submission. Atiku has a right to gather evidence that could impact subsequent legal actions or appeals.
4. Intrusiveness of Application: Atiku’s application is not unduly intrusive or burdensome. It’s a reasonable step to request comprehensive documents when there are legitimate questions about educational qualifications. The requested documents are directly relevant to the subject matter at hand, and such information is crucial for transparency and fairness.
Furthermore, legal precedent should be considered in terms of the scope and relevance of discovery. The court’s duty is to ensure that justice is served, and relevant evidence is made available to both parties.
In conclusion, I would emphasize that Atiku’s application is consistent with legal principles of fairness, transparency, and the right to access pertinent evidence. Denying his application could potentially hinder the pursuit of justice and compromise the integrity of the legal process.
