Following incessant allegations of certificate forgery by members of the National Assembly, Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) has challenged the Clerk of the assembly and its leadership to invite independent forensic experts to verify the certificates tendered by members of both chambers before running for offices.
In reaction to alleged fake certificates in wide circulation in the N/A with the latest allegations linked to Senator Andy Uba and Dino Melaye, HURIWA said it has become a national emergency to verify the authenticity of the academic certificates of members and staff of the nation’s apex legislative institution.
It stated that in both chambers, over half a dozen members have either been dismissed by the courts over certificate forgery or the matters are pending before different courts in Uyo and Jos.
The rights group in a statement signed by its National Coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko and the National Media Affairs Director, Miss Zainab Yusuf, affirmed that certificate forgery which is a grave crime has posed some of the most disturbing international embarrassments to Nigeria.
‘’We hereby call on the leadership of the National Assembly and the Clerk, Mr Sani Omolori to activate mechanisms by way of inviting independent forensic investigators to conduct transparent, open, and rapid verification of all the academic certificates being paraded by both the members of the National Assembly and the bureaucracy.”
