A United States District Court in the Northern District of Illinois has granted the request made by the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, for the release of President Bola Tinubu’s academic records by Chicago State University.
In a ruling delivered by US Magistrate, Judge Jeffrey Gilbert on Tuesday, the court ordered Chicago state varsity to provide “all relevant and non-privileged documents” to Atiku Abubakar within two days.
The ruling acknowledged Tinubu’s lawyers’ argument against lifting their client’s privacy privilege and clarified that only “non-privileged documents” should be produced.
Atiku had initiated the legal action seeking an order to compel the university to release Tinubu’s academic records.
