Peter Obi Warns Against Excusing Unverified Certificates in Leadership

Peter Obi has warned that excusing unverified academic credentials in leadership weakens the standards that hold society together. He said the issue should not be reduced to support for any individual. According to him, Nigerians must demand accountability and proper verification from everyone seeking positions of responsibility. Obi argued that accepting questionable credentials could create a dangerous precedent, where people occupy professional roles without the required education or qualifications. He called for truth, equal standards and accountability over political convenience.
