We Have Buhari’s Records And Certificates – Nigerian Army

Nigerian Army has dismissed reports in the Nigerian media claiming that the army could not find academic records of General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.), the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Director of public relations, Brigadier Olajide Olaleye, told SaharaReporters that the Nigerian Army is in possession of all records of serving, retired and deceased officers since its inception.

He added, however, that all military officers are supposed to keep original copies of their certificates.

According to him, in the event where an officer loses his or her original copy of records, the concerned officer must officially apply for copies from the army.

The spokesman disclosed that the Nigerian Army responds to such requests in an expeditious manner.

Brigadier Olaleye added that he was a former director of records at the Nigerian Army headquarters and had seen records of older and retired generals, affirming that General Buhari’s records were intact.

Brigadier Olaleye insisted that the claim in a major Nigerian newspaper, that the army could not locate Mr. Buhari’s record was untrue.
