Tuesday, June 24, 2025 - President Bola Tinubu has publicly identified a former classmate from his time at Chicago State University (CSU).
During the launch of the Renewed Hope Agriculture
Mechanisation Program, which introduced 2,000 tractors and 9,000 specialised
farming implements, the president briefly mentioned a man he said was both his
neighbour and fellow student during their time at the university.
“To all of
you, Alex was my very good neighbor, and went to the same school with me in
Chicago. Never did we dream that I would be in this position as the President
of Nigeria and Alex a successful businessman from Belarus.
I believe
our University will be very proud that we are doing this here today” President
inubu said, as the man identified as Alex stood up in acknowledgment
President Tinubu's academic background has faced scrutiny.
His educational history, particularly his claims of attending and graduating
from CSU, has been a point of contention since the 2023 presidential election.
