Unearthing Discrepancies:
Atiku highlighted the conflicting information regarding Tinubu’s academic history. While in 1999, Tinubu claimed to have attended multiple educational institutions, including primary, secondary schools, and universities, his 2023 stance narrows his academic journey to Chicago State University alone. This raises questions about how Tinubu attained a university degree without completing his primary and secondary education.

Seeking Clarity:
Atiku’s concerns have sparked discussions across social media, with Nigerians joining him in demanding clarification about the inconsistencies in Tinubu’s academic claims. The hashtag #AskTinubu is trending, underscoring the public’s call for transparency and accuracy in the educational backgrounds of public figures.
