Certificate forgery suit: Obaseki closes defence case as ex-VC testifies
Friday Olokor, Abuja
A former Vice-Chancellor of Igbinedion University, Okada, Edo State, Prof. Eghosa Osaghae on Wednesday told Justice Ahmed Mohammed of a Federal High Court in Abuja that it is not wrong to submit an incomplete photocopy of a certificate.
Osaghae stated this while testifying as the third witness of Governor Godwin Obsaeki of Edo State.
The PUNCH reported that the All Progressives Congress and a member of the party, Edobor Williams, had gone to the Federal High Court to challenge the alleged certificate forgery by Obaseki.
The plaintiffs, among others, were contending that the photocopies of the University of Ibadan degree certificate attached to the nomination form submitted by Obaseki to the Independent National Electoral Commission for the September 19 2019 governorship election was forged.
