Ahead of the 2015 general elections, Vice President Mohammed Namadi Sambo has told INEC that two of his degree certificates, Bachelors and Masters, in Architecture from the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, have been consumed by fire.
Sambo, made the declaration in the documents he filed with INEC and displayed on the commission’s office in Abuja although the details of the fire that consumed the certificates were not given.
The VP’s declaration was validated by two letters from the ABU. The first letter, signed by one Alhassan Garba for the institution’s registrar under the title:
“To Whom it may Concern: Mohammed Namani Sambo,” read, “I certify that the above-named person having completed an approved course of study and passed the prescribed examinations was awarded the Bachelor of Science (Architecture) with Second Class Honours (Lower Division) in 1976 by the Senate of this University. His original certificate got burnt. Please treat his case in view of this certification. Thank you.”
The second letter, also signed by Garba for the ABU registrar, read, “I certify that the above-named person having completed an approved course of study and passed the prescribed examinations was awarded the Master of Science (Architecture) on May 25, 1978 by the Senate of this University. His original certificate got burnt. Please treat his case in view of this certification. Thank you.”
Meanwhile, according to Punch findings, indications have emerged that only 13 political parties would field presidential candidates in the 2015 elections.
