Alleged certificate forgery: Coast clear as court dismisses suit against Obaseki

By

The re-election bid of Governor Godwin Obaseki has been handed a massive boost after an alleged certificate forgery suit against him was on Monday, June 29, dismissed.

The Edo state governor has been embroiled in different lawsuits surrounding his eligibility in the forthcoming election in the state in September.

Edobor Williams, Ugbesia Abudu Godwin and Amedu Dauda Anakhu in a suit with number FHC/ABJ/CS/553/2020 had accused the governor of forging his Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) certificate in Classical Studies from the University of Ibadan.

Delivering her verdict on the case, Justice Anwuli Chiekere who is the presiding judge dismissed the case due to the absence of both plaintiffs and the defendant.

The judgement came barely 18 days after the registrar of the premier university, Olubunmi Faluyi, in a statement on Wednesday, June 10, said Obaseki gained admission to the university in 1976 and graduated in 1979.

In what finally cleared doubt on the governor’s certificate, Faluyi who cited records, also stated that the governor graduated with a second class honours (lower division).

We began our walk at the first roundabout after the tunnel and climbed for about 25 minutes uphill after that it was reasonably flat for the next hour or so. The final part was decent into the town of Sóller where we had booked a private vegan brunch for our group. Barbara and Martjin opened Ecocirer in March 2018 as a vegan hotel with 6 bedrooms in the town of Sóller. It is the ideal accommodation for a family celebration if you would like to enjoy healthy vegan food with plenty of activities to get you out into the beautiful nature surrounding the picturesque town.
