Femi Fani Kayode has spoken about the reluctance of President Buhari to submit his WAEC Certificate to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.
Fani-Kayode said "The ominous, specious and shortsighted suggestion that we should overlook the fact that President Buhari does not have a WAEC Certificate which automatically makes him ineligible to run for the Presidency is disingenious, erroneous and morally indefensible.
"I say this because our country is not a lawless jungle or zoo. There are rules and regulations when it comes to the issue of running for public office and these rules and regulations need to be strictly adhered and honoured by everyone, including the President.
"Fifty Presidential candidates presented their Certificates to INEC successfully and Buhari was the only one who was unable to do so. Is this not a reckless display of sheer and brazen impunity and an irresponsible expression of utter contempt for the rule of law on the part of Buhari.
"The question is why should he be exempted from presenting his Certificate? Is he above the law? If a man cannot come clean about his educational qualifications and instead insists on peddling the fallacious pernicious lie that the army has then in their custody.
(An assertion that the army has denied) can that man be trusted with the denstiny of a nation? He got away with it four years ago and those that said at that time they were ready to support him even if he had was a NEPA Certificate are now regretting it bitterly.
"Are we prepared for another four years of this patently and manifestly fraudulent behavior and constant breach of the most basic rules? Unless he presents those certificate the President will is eligible to run.
"Talking about the submission of the certificates themselves or certified true copy of them. Anything short of the presentation of either of the two to INEC is unacceptable and unlawful, and it means that his candidacy is null and void.
"This matter is a question of morality, honour, decency, and law. On all four counts, Buhari has failed, and he shall forever be damned and convicted in the heart and mind of the Nigerian people for subjecting us to the horrendous indignity of saddled with the President that has no basic education and that thrives on deceit, double-speak subterfuge and mendacity. Nigeria deserves for better. Buhari must go."
