OPEN ADDRESS TO ALL HAUSA MUSLIMS IN NIGERIA BY KALTHOUM ALUMBE JUTAMI:

My Dear fellow Muslims, today I will address you in my capacity as a Hausa Muslim. I will speak to you as one with the fear of God and as one under the laws of Islam. My Muslim brethren, my Hausa brethren, the Fulani are bent on inciting confusion in the name of religion. Our religion is a religion of justice. Our religion is a religion of peace. My Hausa brethren, do not forget that for eight years, the Fulani have killed more than 7 million Hausas. Do not forget, my Hausa brethren, that these Hausas who were killed are all Muslims.

Do not forget that President Buhari was elected by us, the Muslims. During Buhari's tenure, the Minister of Defense was a Fulani Muslim. The Inspector General of Police was a Fulani Muslim. The Minister of Education was a Fulani Muslim. The Minister of FCT was a Fulani Muslim. The Minister of Finance, along with every other strategic position you can imagine, were all manned by Fulani Muslims. All the governors in Hausa land: Zamfara, Sokoto, Kebbi, Kaduna, Katsina, Kano, Jigawa, were all Fulani Muslims. In all the killings against us, the Hausas, have any of them ever said anything?

The leaders of Tijaniya, Izala, Qadriya, and Shia - have you ever seen any of them come out and declare that the killing of Hausa Muslims must be stopped? Apart from Murtala Asada, Musa Lukwa, Abdullazis Idris, and Bello Yabo, these are the only four people who have spoken against the killings. We also have Doctor Nura Khalid.

The Muslim public, the Hausa public, when Buhari was president, he granted Israeli and Germans citizenship of Nigeria - don't forget. Today, ironically, because Wike, the current Minister of FCT said he would hire an Israeli company for Security, the Fulani are inciting confusion amongst us in the name of Islam just to provoke us to violence. They are quite aware that we Hausas, when religion is invoked over any matter, we get easily provoked to violence. Don't forget the killings against us for eight years under Buhari. Our children who were kidnapped, a Hausa lady was kidnapped while pregnant and a ransom of 5 million naira was demanded. She gave birth to twins in captivity and was told to pay two million each for the twins, making it 9 million naira altogether. A Hausa Muslim paid nine million to a Fulani Muslim. They collected this money, took these two babies, a boy and a girl, and fed them to Fulani dogs alive. The mother snapped and died instantly. Have you ever seen or heard any Fulani cleric in this country come out to condemn this heinous act? No!

A Hausa Muslim baby was taken and cooked by the Fulani and given to the Hausas to eat. Have you ever heard any Fulani cleric condemn this senseless act? No. Hausa Muslims were met praying in the mosques and shot dead right in the mosque by the Fulani. Have you ever heard any Fulani cleric criticize this? No! A vehicle was stopped with Hausa Muslims in it, gasoline was poured on the vehicle and its occupants were burnt alive while they were calling on God. Have you seen any Fulani cleric condemn this? No!

Thousands of Hausas were chased out of their villages, denied farming, and even denied admission to educational institutions. We Hausas have been kept at arm's length by everyone in this country. Today, because those governing this country are not from Fulani stock, they want to provoke us.

The US Court Proceedings On Order Directing Discovery from CHICAGO STATE UNIVERSITY: A National Embarrassment /..1

I speak as a Nigerian. That it took the courageous activism of HE. Abubakar Atiku to force the discovery of information concerning the President of Nigeria is a disgrace to our national institutions.

As a nation, we have a full retinue of staff at the Department of the State Security, the National Intelligence Agency, the Independent National Electoral Commission, the Embassy of Nigeria with the full complement of staff in Washington DC and the Nigerian Judiciary that have variously ruled on matters concerning President Tinubu's academic qualifications. Yet, we can not have a definitive conclusion about whether he has the academic qualifications he claimed he had or not. Disgraceful.

That all the aforementioned institutions allowed a man to be sworn in without definitive statements about his qualifications is a national tragedy. For 23 years the issue of President Tinubu has been a recurring decimal in our national equation. Under his reign, a current youth corps member is serving as Minister, and people under investigation by EFCC and made public are sitting in the Federal Executive Council. And they all passed through security screening.

The office of the President of Nigeria is so important both in its moral authority and its strategic importance to our national security and safety that nobody who has possible blind spots that can make him or her a potential asset for foreign intelligence or governments should be allowed a mile near that office. This should be a primary burden on all our national institutions. Legal technicalities and silence by state institutions should be deemed high treason.

It highlights my previous statement that a constitutional amendment to finish all electoral cases before the assumption of office is now a matter of urgent national priority. The current disgraceful proceedings against a Nigerian President in a foreign court under election petition matters are damaging to our collective moral and legal standing as a people.

If it turns out tomorrow that our President presented a forged certificate to INEC, Nigerians will bow down their heads globally in shame. On the other hand, if it turns out that his certificate is genuine, again our reputation as a people is still in tatters because of the failure of national institutions to perform due diligence no matter who is involved. On both counts it reinforces global perceptions and prejudice against Nigerians. We all bear the burden.

A forged certificate finding leaves President Tinubu in a vulnerable position morally and legally. As he did not present primary and secondary certificates to INEC, a forged CSU certificate makes him unqualified to stand for the office of President as he does not possess the minimum qualification S.131(D) of the 1999 Constitution as amended. of course, the next issue is the case of perjury, the presentation of false documents under oath.

How INEC, accepted a university degree without the qualifying certificates would continue to be a national mystery. A language in our electoral legislation to forestall such obvious infractions is required.

The decision of the District Court and the whole proceedings is not a moment of triumphalism but a sober moment of introspection. It is a moment when as a nation we ask ourselves:

What are our national values?

Who or which institution should have ordered the full investigation of the questionable certificate?

Considering that he did not present a primary or secondary certificate should our courts be concerned with the technicality of the tendering process of the CSU certificate or the disgrace and global moral damage a forged certificate would wrought on Nigeria?

Why did our national security system not conduct a discrete investigation and advise the candidate and INEC about the status of his certificate?

[Peter Obi Grassroots Mobilization. @PO_GrassRootM]

The credit report that, "Judge Nancy Maldonado has warned Tinubu's lawyers, not to file any objection, injunction or stay of execution to her ruling, instructing Chicago state University (CSU) to release all Tinubu's documents to Atiku Abubakar, and the public. Judge Maldonado gave CSU until 12noon on Monday to release the documents and the deposition of officials of CSU completed by 5pm CDT on Tuesday" is a welcome development Nigerians have the right to know whom Tinubu is we are looking forward to the official documents on Tuesday.

1) And it shall come to pass on a certain day in the 10th month in the year of our lord, that Pablo Ecowas shall be weighed on international scales and found to be of no good. For books shall be opened, two thousand five hundred (2,500) pages of deeds committed by one man against God, man and beast.

2) On that day, corn fields shall wither and the colony of bats shall crumble. An Omojuwa and an Ajuri shall run helter skelter in their defences, and their strength will be no more. Their stomach shall churn and the taste in their tongue shall be the taste of vinegar, for the works of their king will be discovered and the secrets of his anus shall in the eyes of 200 men be laid bare.

3) Early that day, 6 strong men namely: the @FBI, the @CIA, @Deahq @irsnews , the @statedept and @usattorneys shall read to us the criminalcapades of the impostor in Aso Rock and tales shall be told of the heroine in his guts; the money he laundered; the identity he stole and the rumours of his prison life shall be exposed.

4 ) Alas! Oh son of man, tell them, tell them the things they hate to hear. Do not be ashamed to speak of the crimes of Amoda, for it is they who shall cower and cover their heads in shame, since it is they who have chosen a criminal to lead them, and to doom, he shall lead them.

5) Oh ye children of the corn, confusion in your camp beckons. Prepare thyself, for on these streets, there shall be no hiding place for every foul, filthy and unclean creature. You and your king shall be disgraced in the market places, in Trafalgar and Eagle square, in Timbuktu, in Dodoma, in Durban and in the Cayman Islands.

6) From dawn to dusk, your tears will flow and there shall be no mercy. Your evil deeds shall pursue thee and conquer thee and there will be no succour. On that day, ye shall learn. Bread shall become stones in thy mouth and thy teeth shall get set on edge.

7) Your children shall ask you, "why did you make a criminal our king" and you will say "Alas! my children, for I have been a fool, and I am a good for nothing Batstard.

8) In shame your children will run from you and mental homes shall love thee, for pain shall be your comfort and disgrace shall make love to thee. Since ye have said, "I am good for nothing", nothing good shall come to thee.

9) Prepare oh warriors of posterity and all men of goodwill who say, "a criminal cannot be our king!". For the time is here, when your adversary shall be delivered unto thee, served on a platter by @DavidHundeyin and ye must demolish the name of the drug trafficker who vitiates the memory of your fathers.

10) Oh Tinubu the Amoda, how has the mighty fallen! How has greed become the end of thee! When men look upon the shame you have caused Oduduwa and his descendants, they shall shake their heads and grief and mutter: "Too bad, Too bad, Too bad, Too bad".

3/3 BAT’s minions also challenged Judge Gilbert’s ruling for being a final decision that ended the dispute and ordered compliance (Makes you wonder what BAT and his minions want? A never ending dispute? *in Falz’s voice ‘THIS IS NOT NIGERIA’ *in Donald Glover’s voice ‘THIS IS AMERICA!’)

- BAT’s minions further dug their claws, that the Supreme Court will not consider further evidence and that granting the application will undermine the Judgement of the Nigerian court (na PEPT them dey refer to as if na better court? No be same PEPT where Tsamanni and co undermine constitution and will of the Nigerian people? So them no like undermining but them sabi undermine constitution?)

- BAT’s minions further asserted that Atiku’s discovery has no legitimate basis and should not be permitted under the federal rule (speaks gibberish further in technicality).
They said the basis for his discovery is an inappropriate ‘comma placement’ and inability to read a signature. They continued to insist that CSU affidavit confirms Tinubu graduated from there and that should be sufficient.

- Tinubu’s minions further fired stray bullets at Peter Obi, referring to him as another ‘domestic presidential candidate’ and that Atiku’s persistence in doubting facts are similarities both of them share. (This is heavy from your mouth BAT. You’ve never presented facts, just forgeries, technicalities and mafia vibes)

- BAT’s minions described the discovery as political opposition research and appealed to the court to set aside the ruling of Justice Gilbert.

Justice Maldonado speaks:

- Justice Maldonado responded via a docket entry that briefing on Intervenor’s (BAT) objections is now complete and that she will endeavor to issue a written ruling AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

- She also noted that court staff have received extensive emails from members of the public related to the case(are these emails from Obidients or are they from BATISTS trying to influence the court?).

- She stated that the courts understand the significant public interest in the dispute but the court will not consider third party or exparte submissions. Rather the court’s review will be limited to the parties briefing and the official records on the dockets, so she will issue a written ruling as soon as possible.

MY SUBMISSION:

BAT’s Lawyers are one trick ponies and their only trick is technicalities. They are stubborn in twisting facts and are operating as if USA is Nigeria.

The scales will fall off their eyes very soon. The harm they screamed will be wrought on BAT is from social media attacks and conspiracy theories. Who takes such a lame argument to court?

Obama faced conspiracy theories, Biden faces them daily, what makes BAT A CHARACTER SHADIER THAN DRACULA AN EXCEPTION? If you can’t stand the heat get out the kitchen, BAT.

Justice will be served and TSAMANI AND CO WILL BE SHAMED!

THIS IS AMERICA! GOD BLESS AMERICA!

2/3 ATIKU’s Lawyers asserted that Judge Gilbert’s ruling and order was CORRECT and that the limited discovery BAT is proposing is absurd as the other documents are related to the diploma issued in question and can aid the determination of its authenticity and help unravel if BAT indeed attended CSU.

- ATIKU’s lawyers also controverted the evidence of BAT that the Supreme Court would reject new evidence and argued that the electoral act ALLOWS for the submission of NEW evidence to the Supreme Court in exceptional circumstances and that it is not for the court in Illinois to determine the receptiveness of the Supreme Court to those documents.

- Atiku’s Lawyers further argued that Judge Gilbert rightly decided that only CSU has the right to object that the discovery is unduly burdensome and that CSU has not objected, so BAT should stop crying more than the bereaved.

- With respect to privacy, ATIKU’s Lawyers asserted that Judge Gilbert appropriately determined that “Applicant’s (Atiku) interests in obtaining records outweighs Intervenor’s (BAT) privacy rights because BAT put the diploma at issue by submitting it to INEC and submitted other CSU documents in a related proceeding.

ATIKU IS NOT SEEKING THE DISCLOSURE OF BAT’s EDUCATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS; HE IS SEEKING TO AUTHENTICATE DOCUMENTS THAT ARE ALREADY IN THE PUBLIC RECORDS (Them wan catch BAT red handed. If the documents are fake and generated from Oluwole serious Gbege go shele)

- ATIKU’s lawyers also argued that Judge Gilbert’s documents may only be reviewed for clear error. Even if the court agrees with BAT’s Minions that the de novo review applies, their objections should be overruled in it’s entirety.

- ATIKU’s Lawyers further argued that On or about July 4, 2023, BAT submitted documents purporting to constitute portions of his educational records from CSU (which do not appear to have been produced to Enahoro- Ebah in response to his August 2022 subpoena) in the proceedings brought by the Labor candidate, Obi (whose proceedings in the Court of Appeal were consolidated with Atiku’s).
Each page is marked: “Certified True Copy—Certified by Jamar C. Orr, Associate General Counsel” at Chicago State University.

Although the Court of Appeal was expected to issue its ruling in the consolidated case on or shortly before September 20, 2023, the court issued an early ruling on September 6, 2023—two days before Applicant submitted his reply to the US Court.

As BAT stated, the Court of Appeal excluded the CSU evidence offered by Atiku on grounds that it was untimely, and because, without the evidence, Atiku’s allegation that BAT was unqualified was not sufficiently particularized.

- For the foregoing reasons, Atiku’s Lawyers submitted that the Court should overrule the Objections of BAT in their entirety.

If the Court overrules the Objections, Atiku respectfully requests that it enter an order requiring production of documents no later than October 2, 2023, and the deposition scheduled no later than October 3, to allow time for transcripts to be finalized, and the discovery obtained to be sent to Nigeria (which is six (6) hours ahead) by October 4 so that such evidence may, in turn, be filed with the Supreme Court by October 5, which is when Atiku’s Nigerian counsel intend to submit any new evidence to the Supreme Court.

- BATS minions stayed in form by insisting and burying their thoughts in the dark echo cave that there is no ‘for use’ and the Nigerian courts are hostile to this discovery (Are the Nigerian courts enemies of justice that they should be hostile to discoveries that aid Justice? Please they should answer, so the Nigerian people know who to send thunder to)
- BAT’s minions argued that it is only the case that they cited that is based on sound logic and precedent (They must think this is PEPT and that Maldonado’s middle name is Tsamanni)

1/3 A BAT’S LATEST SHENANIGANS IN CHICAGO - COMPREHENSIVE UPDATE ON ATIKU VS CSU CHICAGO CASE by MissPearls

We expected that when Bola Tinubu’s Lawyers shouted to the heavens that “Severe and irreparable harm will be done to Bola Tinubu if the records are released,” that he would have good reason and provide the court with new information. However a review of their submission shows that his emergency application for review only rehashed and doubled down on the mumbo Jumbo they had previously argued in front of Judge Gilbert. No innovation, no introduction of new facts, just vibes and standing on the previous hill of ‘THE DOCUMENTS CANNOT BE USED IN NIGERIA’ and ATIKU IS TRYING TO PROPAGATE conspiracy theories.

The following information is relevant:

-BAT’s minions argued that the Discovery Cannot Be ‘For Use’ In The Foreign Proceeding Because The Nigerian Election Court Held That It Cannot Be Used And The Only Document At Issue Is the Diploma.

- BAT’s minions also argued that the Discovery Is Not For Use In the Foreign Proceeding And the Discovery is Unduly Intrusive To Private And Confidential Educational Records. This was premised on their assertion that the discovery is based on conspiracy theories and is a cover for a fishing expedition. They also added that BAT’s privacy rights cannot be overcome by a political opponent’s misuse of the Illinois Court system to illegally gain access to his records.

They insisted that there is harm in allowing discovery on issues and documents outside the diploma.

According to them, BAT’s records were illegally obtained previously and have been utilized to attack him. (I THOUGHT THEY SAID BAT DOES NOT CARE ABOUT SOCIAL MEDIA AND HE DOESN’T READ IT.)

- BAT’s Minions further argued that obtaining more documents via a subpoena – particularly ones that are not part of the INEC submission by BAT – is both improper and nonsensical.

They added that the previous unlawful release of documents allowed BAT’s opponents to sow confusion and spread conspiracy theories. (WHO OR WHAT COURT DETERMINED THAT ENAHORO EBAH’s SUBPOENA WAS UNLAWFUL?)
Thus, Atiku should not be permitted to conduct discovery on the discovery illegally obtained by Atiku allies (HELLO! ENAHORO EBAH IS AN OBIDIENT!) and BAT’s political opponents.

So, discovery on discovery is rarely appropriate,(but Technicalities on Technicalities is appropriate abi?)
They said it’s certainly not appropriate when the sole issue Atiku identified is BAT’s submission of his diploma to INEC.

- They then appealed to Judge MALDONADO that even if a discovery is granted it should be narrowed to only the diploma.

- Atiku’s Lawyers argued that theirs is a straightforward application seeking evidence in proceedings now pending before the Supreme Court, where he challenged the electoral qualifications of BAT on the basis that he submitted a forged diploma to CSU and his actual attendance of CSU

- Atiku’s Lawyers strenuously denied the fact that ATIKU is on a fishing expedition and asserted that he intends to (1) test the authenticity and origin of 12 pages of documents including (two very different diplomas) that was purported to have been issued by CSU (We’re getting closer to belling the CAT…Uh I mean BAT) all of which have been submitted to Nigerian courts and are all over the media and (2) the basis for CSU’s categorical assertion that Tinubu recieved a BS degree in 1979 given the discrepancies between information in the CSU documents and information submitted to INEC via an Affidavit.

They also added this uppercut : that if as intervenor (BAT) asserts that he attended CSU and that documents he submitted are authentic copies issued by CSU, there is no reason he should oppose a limited discovery

Atiku is requesting (Exactly what all Omoluabis from the Yoruba Tribe and Obidients, Atikulates and ALL patriotic Nigerians are wondering).

RE: ATIKU VS CHICAGO STATE UNIVERSITY/TINUBU.
Except From Judge Gilbert Judgement

- With respect to the privacy objections the court held that the FERPA statute does not create an independent privilege for educational records, but instead makes educational records confidential. Disclosure of educational records is permitted under FERPA if it is necessary to comply with a lawfully issued subpoena or judicial order and the burden is on the party requesting educational records to show that their interest in obtaining the records outweighs the privacy interest of the student.

*- The court held that Atiku’s interest in obtaining BAT’s records from CSU OUTWEIGHS BAT’s privacy rights because BAT put his diploma at issue by submitting it to INEC. BAT also submitted other educational documents in a related proceeding in Nigeria, some of which were certified by a CSU official, as discussed above. Atiku therefore SATISFIED that requirement* !

- BAT’s lawyers also objected to the discovery on the basis that it would place too much burden on CSU but the court shut them up stating that they *had no standing (Locus) to do that. CSU is the proper party to do that. (I LIKE THIS COURT O!)

*- The court also overruled CSU’s objection stating* *they had devoted significant time and resources to the case as being insufficient. CSU’s* *preference on written instead of oral deposition was also overruled and the court highlighted CSU’s did not justify the need for the court to protect it with that method and that an oral deposition is the most effective method to obtain information from a deponent under the circumstances of the case.*

*- The court concluded by ordering CSU* *to* *RELEASE ALL the relevant documents in 48 hours and deposition should take place immediately after release of the documents. The court also ordered them to work on weekends if necessary.*
_THIS IS THAT END OF THE DISCUSSION, END_ _OF THE ROAD AND THE BEGINNING OF THE THE NEW NIGERIA OF ALL OF OUR DREAMS._

*MY SUBMISSION* :

1. Judge Gilbert ruled using Solomonic wisdom.

2. _The Oluwole tactics and Agbero Technicalities modus operandi of BAT and the_ _Injustice league spectacularly failed in a court dedicated to doing substantive Justice_ .

3. Justice was done as predicted and truly and indeed the US Judiciary is a leveler that deserves its flowers.

4. *Atiku also deserves his flowers for being a dogged* *fighter. Assuming Nigeria was a working country, this case should* *have been instituted by INEC or PEPT but you sef know say Injustice league cannot thrive in* a *disinfected environment, Avengers full ground. Perhaps we should canvass that* *American Judges should supervise our election tribunals (Just kidding).*

5. On a serious note, our Judiciary needs serious help, reforms and light. We just witnessed firsthand how a sane Judiciary operates and could reasonably predict the outcome of a case in Line with Justice and Justice was truly and indeed served.

6. _We Pin and await the surprises from the documents that’ll be released from CSU_

TINUBU ACADEMIC RECORDS:

IT'S ABOUT TIME OUR ELDER STATESMEN, CRITICAL STAKEHOLDERS AND RETIRED GENERALS WHO FOUGHT TO KEEP THE UNITY OF NIGERIA BEGIN TO MAKE PRONOUNCEMENT - AFOLABI

A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and an elder statesman from Osun State, Deacon Elijah Afolabi has called on retired generals and other well meaning political leaders in Nigeria to step up and speak out on the trending academic records of the President of Nigeria and All Progressives Congress (APC), presidential candidate in the February 25, election, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Deacon Afolabi made the call in a statement issued by him on Monday September 25, 2023, saying that, to have a Nation we can bequet as a legacy to future generations, there is an urgent need for the intervention of our elders, statesmen and retired generals who fought to keep the unity of our country to come together and make definite pronouncements on this lingering forgery allegations.

Afolabi’s statement is predicated on the ongoing legal suits by the PDP and it’s Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar, at the United States District court of Illinois, requesting the Chicago State University to release all the academic records of Bola Tinubu to him.

“To save Nigeria from the grip of Draculas who are hell bent on sucking her to death, our elder statesmen and political leaders must make a definite pronouncement at this point on this protracted legal battle, especially the cases at the District Court of Illinois, USA. It’s embarrassing and totally unacceptable for a president of our dear country, Nigeria to be protesting against the release of his academic records if the said records are genuine” - Deacon Afolabi stated.

He further stated that the ongoing court proceedings in the USA has exposed some serious flaws in Nigeria’s judicial system deu to the transparent nature of the process.

“Our judiciary is gradually losing her credibility, the intrigues and shenanigans all in a bid to cover up the truth going on in CSU in far away Chicago in United States is becoming a national scandal and the need for urgent pronouncements to salvage what is left of the integrity of our judiciary”

He added that the pronouncements on the matter must be made by our elders and statesmen in order to restore confidence in our democracy.

“We cannot afford another military intervention, our democracy must be sustained. Nigeria is bigger than any individual, there is no hiding place any more, truth is truth any day and you can not do anything against the truth that is now in the public domain”

He concluded that the certificate forgery matter is not new to Nigerians, that the same Chicago saga has been a running issue since 1999 when Festus Keyamo (SAN) and Chief Gani Fawehinmi took this matter to court.

He lambasted the ruling party, the APC, saying that its desperation to cover up the scandal left many Nigeria thinking that there is skeleton in the cupboard.

“It is now clear that no one can run from his shadows, no matter the level of craftiness and cover up. Truth is like water, it will definitely find it's level. Let's arise to save our Country. Posterity will record what we do at this moment. We are either for Nigeria or against Nigeria.
