Below is what the former president allegedly said. I use allegedly because after now, he will come out and say he never said it. Read below…
The truth of the matter is that Jonathan is aware that Buhari is qualified to contest for President Election but some hawks with Jonathan, do not want him to contest Because they believed that he will win and come for them.
The issue came up in 2007, and we investigated and found out that his WASEC is with the military and that was why he was allowed to contest in 2007.
Buhari cannot listen to anyone about his certificates because as a General of Nigeria Army,he will speak when he chooses, not by Femi Fani Kayode and Okupe asking him.
Fayose and other corrupt People including Kashamu do not want Buhari because of his anti-corruption slogan. Even Jonathan did not finish his PhD course but when it was presented we stated that, it does not matter but many people do not know because it was PDP thing.
I see Buhari as the next President and Jonathan is aware of that, and that is the reason they are hitting him everywhere to put confusion in his camp. But a General is always a general.
The Governor of Ekiti State, Mr Ayo Fayose, has urged Nigerians to be very careful with Olusegun Obasanjo,in relation to next month’s presidential election.
According to Fayose , Obasanjo wants to make an old man like Gen. Buhari,the president of Nigeria so that he will die in office like late Musa Yar’Adua.He said what happened to Yar’Adua is about to repeat itself if Gen. Buhari wins the presidential election.
Disclosing this today Thursday, January 15,in Ado-Ekiti, Fayose said heis baffled why Obasanjo has a misunderstanding with President Jonathan,stressing that the relationship between Obasanjo and APC leader, Bola Tinubu, is “like a lion and a goat living together”.
Read his statement below…
”Nigerians should be wary of Obasanjo’s banana peel. He was the one who put forward Umar Yar ‘Adua as the president knowing the man’s state of health and the man died in office. He was the one who said President Goodluck Jonathan was the best for Nigeria and that without him there would be no Nigeria.”
“The question people should ask former President Obasanjo is what has gone wrong between now and then? He is against President Jonathan because the President refused to be pocketed by him and any Nigerian leader who wants to succeed will not allow that. Obasanjo is now presenting General Muhammadu Buhari as the best candidate
for Nigeria knowing the man’s age and that the pressure of office would be too much for him.”
“In the North, there are so many qualified, brilliant and credible people who can rule the country well.Why is Obasanjo going after an old horse that may collapse mid way. Nigerians should know the state of health of Buhari. His age and health cannot stand the rigours of the office. Nigerians deserve to know the health status of Buhari.”
“The strange love between Obasanjo and Tinubu is like a lion and a goat living together in the same house. Jonathan should be allowed to complete his term and after that the North will be allowed to present credible candidate in 2019, not an old horse being put forward.”

The controversy over APC Presidential aspirant, General Muhammadu Buhari (retd) might have come to an end, as it has been confirmed that he graduated from the United States Army War College in 1980. In an email response to Sunday Iwalaiye, a US-based Nigerian who contacted the institution in view of the controversy about the General’s academic credentials, Carrol Kerr, the school’s Public Affairs Officer, said that Buhari earned a diploma. He was at that time a colonel.
