The Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has called for an investigation into the allegations of discrepancy on President Tinubu’s Chicago State University (CSU) certificate.
In a statement on Wednesday signed by its Secretary General, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, the organization said the allegations of forgery and identity theft are serious and must be properly investigated.
He appealed to Nigerians to remain calm and wait for the outcome of the Supreme Court on the ongoing certificate saga and also urged politicians and other stakeholders to refrain from making inflammatory statements that could further divide the country.
Isiguzoro also called for caution against any attempt to use the allegations to cause chaos and instability in the country.
The statement reads in part: “The Ohanaeze Ndigbo appeals to Nigerians to remain calm and wait for the outcome of the Supreme Court on the ongoing certificate saga involving President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
“Again, we urge politicians and stakeholders to refrain from heightening tensions and overheating the polity, as this will not augur well for the country.
“However, the allegations of discrepancy on President Tinubu’s Chicago State University of the United States of America certificate are serious and must be thoroughly investigated.
“But we caution against any attempt to use the allegations to cause chaos and instability in the country.”
