7 Key Points From The Release Of Tinubu’s Educational Records By Chicago State University

Chicago State University (CSU) has released Bola Tinubu’s academic records in response to a court order from the District Court of Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division…

The order stemmed from Atiku’s challenge to Tinubu’s victory as the 2023 presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC). U.S. Federal Judge Nancy Maldonado, following the rulings of Magistrate Judge Jeffrey Gilbert, oversaw the compliance.

1. CSU issued a Certificate of Service, signed by counsel Michael D. Hayes, to release the academic records.
2. The documents were sent to both Atiku and Tinubu’s legal teams via electronic mail.
3. CSU provided copies of the Bachelor of Science degree Diploma, issued in 1979, for Atiku’s request. The documents were labelled as CSU 0001 through 0007, with the student’s name obscured for privacy.
4. The university stated that it could not locate a true and correct copy of the diploma issued to Tinubu in 1979, as they do not typically keep copies of student diplomas.
5. Atiku requested CSU diplomas matching the format of the purported diploma issued to Tinubu on June 22, 1979, and CSU located them, labelling them CSU 0008 through CSU 0010, with the student’s identity obscured for privacy.
6. CSU also produced diplomas labelled CSU 0011 and CSU 0012 prepared for other students, with their names redacted for privacy. These diplomas match the format of Tinubu’s replacement diploma dated June 27, 1997.
7. Atiku requested correct copies of documents earlier certified by Jamar Orr in Exhibit D to Uwais Declaration, which CSU provided, labelled CSU 0013 through 0032.
