Following series of criticisms by traducers about the education of the Labour Party presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi at the University of Nigeria Nsukka, his Spokesperson, Mr. Valentine Obienyem has finally published his Bachelors Degree certificate in Philosophy obtained from the institution in 1984.
In addition, he has also challenge other candidates to publish theirs.
According to online reports, Mr. Obienyem says:
It would have just required publishing Mr. Peter Obi’s degree result to stop the perennial debate about the class of degree he came out with. Each time I mentioned it to him, Obi would restrain me from publishing. His stand is clear: “Val, to me, education is the progressive discovery of our ignorance. We learn everyday. The possession of paper qualification is not, and cannot become the measure of wisdom and intelligence. When people debate what I graduated with, ignore them. To allow yourself become fixated on such inane discourse is to imply that you do not have better things to do.”
But I have always had a different view. Simple publication, not for the sake of debate, but to clear all doubts, especially among those that are deceived.
