FFK responds "Gusau did not attend Katsina College with Buhari "

DIRECTOR of Media and Publicity of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Organisation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, has faulted a report in the media on Sunday, which indicated that the Minister of Defence, General Aliyu Gusau, claimed that General Muhammadu Buhari passed his Cambridge/WASCE examination in 1961 and that they attended Katsina College together.

Fani-Kayode, in a statement issued in Abuja, on Sunday, said the report was part of the propaganda by the opposition and desperate bid to cover the wrongdoing of its presidential candidate.

“It has been brought to our attention that a number of online publications and newspapers have published a false story suggesting that General Aliyu Gusau, the Minister of Defence, has defended General Buhari on the certificate issue and has said that they attended Katsina College together.

“This is pure falsehood and crass disinformation, and it is indicative of the type of shameless desperation and propaganda that the opposition are now indulging in.

“Not only did General Gusau not attend any school with General Buhari or go to Katsina College, he has also never sought to defend or absolve him in the ongoing controversy about his school certificate.
