<\/p>\n

Femi Fani-Kayode, a former Aviation Minister, has berated President Muhammadu Buhari\u2019s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina for calling the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and those demanding that the President presents his certificate as idle people.<\/p>\n

Buhari had while submitting his presidential nomination form to the Independent National Electoral Commision, INEC, ahead of the February 2019 election, presented a sworn affidavit instead of his certificates.<\/p>\n

In the affidavit, Buhari claimed his credentials are still with the Nigerian Army where he was an officer until his retirement in 1985.
\nAgainst this backdrop, PDP challenged Buhari to present his WAEC certificate, stressing that Nigerians will not \u201caccept NEPA bill\u201d this time around.<\/p>\n

Reacting to the fuss created, Adesina had over the weekend lambasted PDP, saying, \u201conly idle people discuss Buhari\u2019s certificate.\u201d<\/p>\n

However, Fani-Kayode lambasted Adesina over his remark.<\/p>\n

In a tweet, the PDP chieftain wrote: \u201cOnly idle people discuss Buhari\u2019s certificate saga \u2013 Femi Adesina.<\/p>\n
