President Bola Tinubu did not list his primary and secondary school qualifications in the educational qualifications section of the personal particulars submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, for the 2027 presidential election.
The documents, published by INEC on Saturday in line with its revised timetable for the 2027 general election, contain the nomination papers and supporting credentials of presidential and vice-presidential candidates.
A review of Tinubu’s EC9 nomination form shows that the President listed only a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) degree in Business Administration obtained from Chicago State University in 1979 under the educational qualifications section.
The sections provided for his primary and secondary school qualifications were left blank.
However, Tinubu attached copies of his university degree certificate and National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, certificate to his nomination papers.
In the form, the President stated that he was born on March 29, 1952, in Lagos and described his occupation as “Politician.”
He also declared that he worked at Mobil Nigeria Limited between 1983 and 1992 before serving as Governor of Lagos State from 1999 to 2007.
He listed his current employer as the Federal Government of Nigeria from 2023 to date and stated that he had never been dismissed from public service.
