The Cambridge Assessment (formerly known as University of Cambridge Local
Examinations Syndicate, UCLES) in response
to requests to prove the authenticity of the All Progressives Congress
(APC) presidential candidate, Major General Muhammadu Buhari’s exam certificate, has
said on Friday that it will not be able to do so.
In a statement made available on its
website, the institution said, “We can only confirm or verify results at the
direct request of or with the permission of a candidate.”
“This is in accordance with the
provisions of the Data Protection Act 1998 and section 40 of the Freedom of
Information Act 2000.”
The organization also confirmed that
according to the Regulations for 1961, African Language papers, including those
for Hausa were set for the West African School Certificate.
Established over 150 years ago, Cambridge
Assessment operates and manages the university’s three exam boards and carries
out leading-edge academic and operational research on assessment in education.
