Peter Obi’s NYSC, UNN certificates bear different names – Labour Party National Spokesperson
The National Publicity Secretary of the Lamidi Apapa-led faction of the Labour Party (LP), Abayomi Arabambi, has alleged a discrepancy in the credentials of the party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
Arabambi made the statement in an interview on AIT while responding to Obi’s press conference on the controversy over Bola Tinubu’s Chicago State University certificate.
The LP’s national spokesperson claimed to have been part of the panel that screened Obi prior to the presidential primary of the party.
Arabambi stated that there was a difference between the name on Obi’s University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) academic certificate and the name on his National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) certificate.

Arabambi said: “I was part of the people who did screening for him. In the form EC9, we gave him, he wrote that he attended the University of Nigeria Nsukka and he wrote that he finished his youth service but unfortunately, in the final submission of the form he only submitted his school certificate.
“So something is fishy and I want to say the name the school sent for mobilization was not what was written on his NYSC certificate and he knows that.
“This destination that he is going, I don’t know what he wants to achieve. We have before the Supreme Court his own petition and the pleadings are not there, you are now calling out someone to come and reveal his true identity.
“For us, we don’t know the true identity of Peter Obi even in the Labour Party because everything was shrouded in secrecy at that time between him and Abure in Asaba.
“You know we were rushing because we had just a day to do our presidential primary and that was why he was able to get away with it, but we have it on record that Obi’s name on his NYSC certificate and the one on his University of Nigeria, Nsukka certificate are different.”
