Hamza Al-Mustapha

The Presidential candidate of  Peoples Party of Nigeria (PPN), Hamza Al-Mustapha, did not submit his academic credentials to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

All the aspirants seeking elective positions in the country ought to submit certain documents, including their academic credentials, to the commission.

But Al-Mustapha, a retired major in the Nigerian army, told the commission his documents are in possession of the military, PoliticsNGR reports.

Al-Mustapha said the military has “refused” to release his academic certificates, despite court orders asking them to do so.

The PPN Presidential flag bearer said: “I was a victim of persecution for 15 years over deliberate trump of charges. I was, however, exonerated and freed of the wanton charges vide court of appeal ruling on 12 July, 2013.

“My entire personal documents including my certificates and awards were taken by the then government in 1998.

“Formal complaints were registered before high court of Lagos (2000 – 2001) and Federal High Court, Lagos Division, (2004 – 2007) but government refused to obey court orders till today.

“However, Nigeria army (my employer – 1983 – 2013) is in custody of the certificates this application is asking of.”

Mustapha, has however, disclosed that he attended Hausari Primary School, from 1967 to 1974; Government Secondary School, Nguru, YBS, from 1974 to 1979; and Nigeria Defence Academy, from 1980 to 1983.

Recall that, President Muhammadu Buhari also has failed to submit his academic credentials, saying they are with the military.
