The leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to immediately vacate office over a trending video in the social media where Information and Culture Minister, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, pleaded with Nigerians over the President’s WAEC certificate controversy.

The video is said to be an extract from an interview the minister granted Channels Television on January 22, 2015, when he was the then opposition All Progressives Congress spokesman. The party also said the pronouncement and appeal for pardon by the minster, who is also a lawyer, was a direct plea for guilt, which the party said cannot save the President from the course of justice in the pending petition.

“They doctored and circulated the video of my appearance on Channels Television in January 2015 to make it look like I was begging Nigerians to forgive President Buhari for not having a school certificate.
