In light of the controversies surrounding President Bola Tinubu’s academic records from the Chicago State University (CSU), the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, says the administration cannot waste time on such “trivial matters”.
Tuggar, speaking on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily on Wednesday, said that the controversy does not cast a shadow on some of the president’s recent international engagements.
“There is a tendency to always try to distract people on such frivolous issues as opposed to facing the major issues of development. We don’t have time to waste on that,” he said.
He argued that a former president, Muhammadu Buhari, experienced a similar issue.
