Hmmm....
'Buhari get certificate, Buhari no get certificate ' that's the new song in town now.
Before I continue, I would like to apologize for the long break. I'm very sorry,by the special Grace of the Almighty,I shall see to it that I update more regularly. Now,straight to business!
I find it quite amusing to see the ruling party desperately looking for ways to discredit the opposition party. Initially, it was the case of whether the opposition were behind the senseless killings of boko haram,then,afterwards,it was the Islamization of the country and now, funny enough,it is the WAEC result issue.
I don't know how you see it,but,to me,all this controversies continue to make the opposition party much stronger and the ruling weaker! I would like us to be realistic,if the General (General Muhammad Buhari, the opposition's presidential candidate,A.P.C.) has no school leaving certificate and has served in the army for decades without hitches or problems,does it speak well of the Nigerian Army? I don't think so!
THE MILITARY PRESS RELEASE, A BIG DISAPPOINTMENT!
Personally, I used to think very highly of the Nigerian Military, this is why yesterday's press release from their quotas shocked me! It was such a disappointment!
If WAEC is a criteria for enrolling as a soldier and one of the applicant couldn't provide it and you accepted a statement of result from a secondary school as substitute, isn't it only logical that you investigate the matter and ensure that the certificate is later provided? Please, note that we are not talking of a new serving recruit here,we are actually talking of a RETIRED GENERAL!
This is a man who had been recruited and have served in the military in various capacities and have participated in many military courses during his rise in the military hierarchy... Bros, I am talking of a GENERAL here!
If per chance he got enrolled as a junior officer without his WAEC,is it not only sensible he provides the certificate before he is recommended for ANY course at all? On reading his profile, he passed a course of 'Strategic Planning ' in the US WAR COLLEGE! How was he enrolled for the course, with what credentials was a he registered into the US War College, is it with the Principal's note or the statement of result? I don't know if you are getting me? Because for the military to have enrolled a soldier without the necessary papers shows a high level of incompetence in the military! If you cannot provide the certificate with which one of your Generals was enrolled into the military and you SHAMELESSLY affirmed this on mass,then,I say to you that you are a BIG DISAPPOINTMENT!
INEC'S SILENCE,HYPOCRITICAL AND UNFORTUNATE!
I don't know if the present dispensation takes us for a fool. Buhari had started contesting for the Presidency since 2003 and has always been cleared by INEC. His qualifications hasn't been in doubt,why is it now,hasn't he been registering for the candidacy since 2003, what has changed,does it mean that all this while, he has not the required qualifications and yet he had gotten 3 consecutive clearance to contest? Abeg, Jega, answer us fa!
The silence of the INEC, to me is most unfortunate and deafening indeed! If INEC has been clearing him for election since 2003 and there's an eyebrow raised as to his qualifications today, I think it's only moral and logical that INEC explains how and why he (General Buhari) has always gotten cleared for elections so as to clear the air once and for all! INEC owe Nigerians explanation and a lot it for that matter! Their refusal to talk ON TIME is most hypocritical and sentimental!
TO THE GENERAL...
I'll say well done! Since,unfortunately, the Military has disappointed you and Nigerians as a whole, may I suggest you visit the WAEC office to seek the re-issuance of your WAEC results, they should still possess your result IN YOUR PERSONAL FILE unlike the military who has only your statement of results and never bothered to seek for the original.
PERSONALLY...
I haven't and would NEVER take the issue seriously because even the worst scenerio doesn't disqualify the General! He already possess other higher certificates WHICH WERE NOT FORGED AND FROM HIGHLY REPUTABLE INSTITUTIONS!
The issue here is like a person that seeks employment and was asked to provide a minimum qualification of a degree and he presented a master's degree. Then,one of the contenders for the job shouted foul that the said candidate has no school leaving certificate! Isn't it ridiculous?
Okay,let's assume it's true,Buhari attended a secondary school,a reputable Nigerian school, got into the army,Nigerian Army,scaled up the ranks and files of the Army and have, during this time been sent BY THE ARMY for more military training and have obtained higher certificates in the process,despite the very shameful announcement of the Army whose problem,REALLY, is the certificate issue,is it that of a honorable citizen who had served his country selflessly for decades or that of a government organ that refused to keep updated info of its staff?
What are they saying, are they saying that his service in the military is null and void? Should that be the case,he should be expected to return all funds expended on him during his service year as well as the pension benefits he has received so far! If,however, his qualifications to enroll in the military is intact and Okay, then I believe, tendering higher level certificates should over rule the WAEC results. Therefore, the issue of whether he has WAEC result or not is irrelevant!
Whatever happens the military's press release has degraded it so much in my personal ratings that I begin to wonder if the whole military altogether isn't a SHAM!

Abdurrahman.
