Dr. Pearse Adetokunbo, a former lecturer at Chicago State University (CSU), has reignited fierce controversy surrounding President Bola Tinubu’s academic records, claiming in a newly surfaced video interview that the president never actually attended the institution.
Speaking on the broadcast, Dr. Adetokunbo stated that he served as a lecturer and program director at the university between 1985 and 1990, asserting that he holds direct knowledge regarding the controversy.
“I say it with all confidence, and I know things about the president that he knows I know… I know that he didn’t even attend Chicago State University,” Dr. Adetokunbo stated.
Dismissing official explanations from government representatives, he added, “The education Minister is lying, just as the President himself is a bonafide professional liar.”
Recalling past political inquiries into the records, Dr. Adetokunbo claimed, “I used to be a lecturer at Chicago State University… for five years. I was the director of the program in which Tinubu said he attended. … When Fu Shaw Williams was looking for information on Tinubu’s record in I think it was 1999. It was to me that they sent people to come and collect the information. I had the information.”
Connecting the academic controversy to current conditions, the former lecturer criticized the administration’s performance, noting rising poverty, unemployment, and widespread security challenges.
The interview anchors noted that the platform would extend a formal right of response to presidential spokespersons and administration officials regarding the claims.
