A former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has called on members of the international community, especially the EU, US, UK and ECOWAS to prevail on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to vacate office over certificate saga.
“Date of birth conflict: The CSU transcripts carry as the date of birth the date, 29 March 1954. Tinubu’s submission to INEC is 29 March 1952. This clearly shows that he lied to INEC under oath (Perjury) by the authority of the CSU papers.
“Hence the pre-requisite admission documents submitted to CSU by the said Tinubu that attended their institution contains information at variance with those presented to INEC by the Bola Tinubu that contested Elections in Nigeria at various times, indicating events of dishonesty both in Nigeria and abroad.”
Frank, in a statement in Abuja, noted that by the revelation that Tinubu might have forged the certificate presented to INEC, he is constitutionally not fit to remain as President of Nigeria.

He said with the disparities in his academic records which he contested the Presidential election on February 25, 2023, he is duty bound to vacate office as provided for in section 137(1)(j) of the constitution which stipulates that no one would be legitimately elected as President of Nigeria if the person has “presented a forged certificate to the Independent National Electoral Commission.”
He added: “So we call on lovers of democracy, former Presidents, Rtd Justices of Supreme Court, traditional rulers, Nigeria Labour Congress, Trade Union Congress, National Association of Nigerian Students, Nigeria Medical Association, Nigerian Bar Association and Civil Society Organizations to prepare for mass action to ensure that Tinubu vacates office as President.
“We also call on the authorities of ECOWAS to ask him to vacate the office of the chairman, otherwise, every decision that ECOWAS will take under his leadership will be null and void and will not be respected.
Frank who is the United Liberation Movement for West Papua (ULMWP) Ambassador to East Africa and the Middle East, insisted that Tinubu needs to vacate office as President of Nigeria because remaining there will continue to set the country back. His actions negate democratic standards and charters to which Nigeria, Ecowas and all AU members subscribe.
