Nigerian Army Has Buhari’s Academic Records, But He Needs To Apply

 

Earlier today, an army source says Buhari's certificate is not with them(read here). Like I thought there should be record for retrieval. Now, the director of public relations of the Nigerian Army, Brigadier Olaleye Lajide, has dismissed reports in the Nigerian media claiming that the army could not find academic records of General Muhammadu Buhari (ret.), the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC). Brigadier Lajide described the reports as false.

SaharaReporters just clarified  the status of Mr. Buhari’s records through text message from Brigadier Lajide and he affirmed that the Nigerian Army is in possession of all records of serving, retired and deceased officers since its inception. He added, however, that all military officers are supposed to keep original copies of their certificates. 

According to him, in the event where an officer loses his or her original copy of records, the concerned officer must officially apply for copies from the army.
