The Chicago State University has released the academic records of Nigeria’s President Bola Tinubu, following requests by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the February 2023 elections.
Atiku had approached the US District Court in Northern Illinois to compel the university to release Tinubu’s academic records, arguing that it would boost his suit challenging the President’s election in the February 25 presidential poll.
Over the weekend, the court ordered the Chicago CSU to release the academic records of Tinubu.
Justice Nancy Maldonado in a judgment dismissed the objection raised by Tinubu against Atiku’s request and expressly ordered that the CSU must submit the academic records to Atiku.
And the school has obeyed the court order, releasing the documents on Monday night
