Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar’s Special Assistant on Public Communications, Phrank Shaibu, criticised the BBC over its fact-check report stating that there was no evidence to show that President Bola Tinubu’s Chicago State University certificate was forged.

He said, “Sometime last week, when the National Broadcasting Commission issued a final warning to Arise News TV, we pointed out that the Tinubu administration was on the verge of launching a full-blown propaganda and also intimidating ‘uncooperative’ media houses into discrediting and downplaying the CSU scandal. Sadly, we never imagined that it would be the BBC that would become the willing tool.

“In 2009, columnist Mehdi Hasan wrote in the New Statesman that the BBC was biased ‘towards power and privilege, tradition and orthodoxy.’
