The allegations of certificate forgery against the former Minister of Innovation, Science and Technology, Mr. Uche Nnaji and his subsequent resignation may have dealt a fatal blow to his political career, despite his dismissal of the allegations and his insistence that he duly graduated from the University of Nigeria, Ejiofor Alike reports
The camp of the former Minister of Innovation, Science, and Technology, Mr. Geoffrey Uche Nnaji in the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Enugu State was thrown into mourning last Tuesday when news filtered in that President Bola Tinubu had accepted his resignation, following allegations of multiple certificate forgery against him.
Nnaji had been in the eye of the storm, over alleged inconsistencies with his first-degree certificate from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN), which he tendered for screening by the National Assembly as a ministerial nominee when Tinubu appointed him in August 2023.
