President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has tendered as evidence, his Chicago State University educational documents and the United States of America visa at the Presidential Election Petition Court on Tuesday.

The court admitted the documents, and admission letter offered by the university as exhibits as the Respondent formally opened his defense in a petition filed against his election by the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) and its presidential candidate, Abubakar Atiku.

Tinubu also tendered his US Visa documents between 2011 to 2021, which indicated that he severally visited the United States of America (USA) unhindered, as against the petition that he was wanted by the country.

Counsel to Tinubu, Chief Wole Olanipekun SAN, also made available to the Court all documents of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) which cleared him for the US trips.

Also admitted as exhibits by the Court is the United States of America’s Embassy letter of April 4, 2003, which is a response to a letter from the Nigerian Police dated February 3, 2003, which claimed that the Embassy had no criminal records of Tinubu in the USA.

The documents were admitted amidst objections against their admissibility by Atiku and his party.

Apart from the educational documents, the Court further admitted an originating summons of a suit instituted at the Supreme Court by the Attorneys General of Adamawa, Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Delta, Edo, and Sokoto States, challenging the educational background of Tinubu to stand for the 2023 presidential election.

The matter continues on July 5.
