Reacting to the evidences, novelist and political commentator Paul Uwadima in a YouTube video said, Tinubu should be worried about some of the accusations made against him and the evidences provided.

Uwadima noted that Tinubu’s opponents claimed there were discrepancies in the certificates he gave to INEC.

He said that due to discrepancies in the supporting documentation that was provided to INEC, the Supreme Court invalidated the election of a governor-elect for the Bayelsa state.

In his own words: “It is clear that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu should also be concerned. The Supreme Court will ultimately rule on this issue, and already with the sort of evidence that is emerging in court.

“In 2019, the Supreme Court invalidated the election of the APC’s candidate for governor of Bayelsa State, and the PDP took control of the state as a result.”

“This is because, according to the evidence that was presented in court, there were discrepancies in the certificates issued by NYSC and other organisations. The same kind of certificate contradiction is now pursuing Tinubu in court.”
