Daniel Bwala, the Spokesperson for the Atiku Abubakar Campaign Organisation, has proven that the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, once sued the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, for alleged certificate forgery.

Bwala stated on Channels TV on Tuesday that Keyamo had sued the Lagos Assembly in 2002 over Tinubu’s candidacy for governor of Lagos State at the time.

Citing a law report titled Keyamo V. House Of Assembly, Lagos State (2002), Bwala said, “This is the Supreme Court decision in the case I have cited and I will just read a line: The appellant alleged amongst others as a legal practitioner that he has been confronted by some of his clients who wanted to understand certain things they consider important relating to their contesting the governorship in Lagos State.

“He further, that is Festus Keyamo, alleged certificate forgery against the Governor of Lagos State, Bola Ahmed Tinubu and that the latter was not qualified for the office of the governor.”

Bwala noted that Keyamo, who was recently appointed as the spokesperson of the Tinubu Campaign Organisation, was the appellant in the then case.

Bwala was an All Progressives Congress chieftain who left the party after Tinubu unveiled Kashim Shettima as his running mate.

After Bwala defected to the PDP following the APC Muslim-Muslim ticket criticism, Atiku appointed him as campaign spokesman.
