The Chicago State University (CSU) has affirmed that President Bola Tinubu was a student of the institution, who graduated in 1979.
KOKO TV NG reports that the Registrar of the University, Caleb Westberg, made this known in a deposition done on the orders of Judge Nancy Maldonado of the District Court of the Northern Illinois District in Chicago.
During the deposition, the CSU official affirmed the validity of the Diploma Certificate and the Certified True Copy presented to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) by President Bola Tinubu, saying that the document was not forged.

Westberg stated this during the deposition done on Wednesday in the office of Angela Liu, the lawyer to the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar.
He stated that the school does not have a copy of the certificate issued to Tinubu in 1979 when he graduated, as the university does not keep certificates, except those ones not collected by their owners.
