An alumnus of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, UNN, and public affairs analyst, Chibuzor Okereke, has lamented that the certificate forgery allegation saga of the resigned Minister of Innovation, Science and Technology, Uche Nnaji, is associated the revered university.

Okereke said this on Wednesday, while responding to questions in an interview on Arise Television.

This comes after the Minister resigned from his position following allegations of certificate forgery leveled against him.

DAILY POST reports that the Minister had said his resignation was not an admission to any wrongdoing, stressing that history would vindicate him.

“This is very disturbing. I’m a proud alumnus of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, where I served with distinction as Students’ Union president.

“It is unfortunate that despite all the screenings, Minister Nnaji served for two years before he was discovered.

“It’s more unfortunate again for alumni members of the UNN that these alleged forged results are associated with the great university. Unfortunately, we are experiencing this at the highest level of governance,” he said.
