Chicago State University Confirms President Tinubu Was Its Graduate

The Chicago State University (CSU) has again confirmed that Nigeria’s president, Bola Tinubu, attended the university and graduated in 1979 with a Bachelor’s degree.

The university disclosed this in a statement issued to CBS Broadcasting Inc. generally referred to as CBS News, one of America’s biggest and most influential news network.

The school insisted that it will not release further information on Tinubu’s record without consent or court order.

Chicago State University noted that the decision was not to protect anyone but according to United States’ federal law

The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar, had alleged that documents showing that Tinubu graduated from Chicago State in 1979, were not authentic, and had highlighted it as grounds to nullify Tinubu’s election victory.
