Part of the document that the Chicago State University was that the certificate format matched the replacement Tinubu was reportedly holding, which was dated June 27, 1997.
However, the school noted that:
"CSU does not, in the ordinary course, keep copies of student diplomas, and after the diligent search, cannot locate a copy of the original diploma it prepared for Mr Tinubu in 1979, hence, it has no documents responsive to this request.”
The university then released several samples of the diploma certificates awarded to other students in 1979, as demanded by Atiku.
