ABUJA- PRESIDENTIAL Campaign Organisation, PCO of the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, Sunday, declared as false media report that the
Minister of Defence, General Aliyu Gusau said that General Muhammadu
Buhari passed his Cambridge/WASCE examination in 1961 and that they
attended Katsina College together. In a statement by the Director of
Media and Publicity of PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation, Chief
Femi Fani-Kayode, the report was part of what he described as opposition
propaganda and desperate bid to cover “the wrongdoing of their
presidential candidate whose integrity they have so much flaunted. “It
has been brought to our attention that a number of online publications
and newspapers have published a false story suggesting that General
Aliyu Gusau, the Minister of Defence, has defended General Buhari on the
certificate issue and has said that they attended Katsina College
together. “This is pure falsehood and crass disinformation, and it is
indicative of the type of shameless desperation and propaganda that the
opposition are now indulging in. “Not only did General Gusau not attend
any school with General Buhari or go to Katsina College but he has also
never sought to defend or absolve him in the ongoing controversy about
his school certificate. “We urge the Nigerian people to be very wary of
the antics of the opposition when it comes to this and virtually all
other matters; and, we encourage them to continue to insist that General
Buhari should stop clutching at straws and prove that he is the man of
integrity that he claims to be by producing his school certificate.
“Anything less than that is simply unacceptable and all the filthy lies,
tricks and dirty tactics in the world cannot help him.” Vanguard
