BBC insists Tinubu’s CSU certificate not forged

The British Broadcasting Cooperation (BBC) is standing by its story published last week that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Chicago State University (CSU) certificate is not forged.

The international media outfit in a reaction to complaints forwarded to it by certain individuals, insisted on the content of it story.

A letter signed by BBC Complaints Team, addressed to it Audience Member at the weekend, expressed regret that some people are unhappy with “our findings on this matter”.

The BBC letter reads: “Dear Audience Member. Thank you for taking time to write to us.

“We received a number of similar complaints and we regret that you are unhappy with our findings on this matter. We have looked into this and the BBC has not seen any evidence that the certificate was forged. We contacted the Chicago State University and they confirmed that Bola Tinubu graduated from the university in 1979 with a Bachelor’s degree. We believe our text piece has been informative and responsible, reporting known facts. We therefore stand by our journalism.”
