Speaking at the Kano State Government House, Buhari said he graduated at Provisional Secondary School,Katsina in 1961 with many prominent Nigerians including late Shehu Musa Yar'Adu and Justice Umar Abdullahi, a former president of Court of Appeal.
He said they sat for the WASC with the two prominent personalities. He gave his examination number as 820002 and that he passed the examination with the second division.
" I assumed all along that all my records were in the custody of the military secretary of the Nigerian Army but to my surprise we were all told that although a record of the result is available, there are no copies of the certificate in my personal file. This is why I have formally requested my old school, the Provincial secondary school, katsina which is now known as Government college, katsina to make available the school's copy of the result of the Cambridge West Africa School certificate," he said.
Flanked by his running mate Professor Yomi Osinbajo, Governor Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and the National Chairman of the party, Chief John Odigie Oyegun, he said the certificate will be made available to press.
He urged journalists to investigate the veracity of his claim at the Government College, Katsina.
