State Governor, Godwin Obaseki and a court gavel.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has closed its case
of alleged certificate forgery levelled against the Edo State
Governor, Godwin Obaseki.
At the resumed hearing of the suit on Monday before a Federal
High Court sitting in Abuja, the plaintiff’s counsel, Akin Olujimi,
concluded their case with the cross-examination of an expert
witness, Raphael Onwuzuligbo, a retired Assistant Superintendent of
Police and a forensic document examiner.
In his testimony during cross examination by counsels to Obaseki
and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the witness said the
University of Ibadan logo on the governor’s certificate appears to
have been compromised.

He also insisted that the signature of the Vice Chancellor of
the university was missing from the certificate not because the
document was poorly scanned but that it was actually missing.
Lawyer to the All Progressives Congress (APC), Olujimi said that
the testimony of the witness further proved their case against
Obaseki as Justice Ahmed Mohammed adjourned further hearing till
January 5, to enable the governor and the PDP open their
defence.
