In a sharp response to the federal government's recent suspension of degree certificate evaluation and accreditation from Benin Republic and Togo, Atiku Abubakar's spokesperson, Abdul Rasheeth, has criticized the move as deceptive and selective.Taking to social media on Tuesday, January 2nd, Rasheeth accused the government of hypocrisy, arguing that the focus on universities in Benin and Togo ignores a more significant issue. He stated, "Universities in Benin and Togo are not the only ones culpable in certificate racketeering. Suspending their accreditation is nothing but deception! This isn't the first time FG is doing that!"
Rasheeth went further, pointing a finger at Chicago State University (CSU) and its affiliates, claiming that these institutions are allegedly involved in "nefarious means and unconscionable methods" of issuing degrees. This revelation adds a layer of complexity to the ongoing debate on certificate integrity.
As Atiku Abubakar's camp denounces the government's actions, questions arise about the broader implications of such suspensions and the need for a comprehensive approach to address issues related to certificate authenticity across various institutions. Experts weigh in on the controversy, examining the potential impact on the credibility of academic qualifications and the government's responsibility in ensuring a fair and uniform evaluation process.
