Uche Nnaji, who resigned as science and technology minister in October 2025 over certificate allegations, has dropped a degree claim in his INEC filing and listed a WAEC result instead, Premium Times reports in Monday's newspaper reviews. He faces a forgery trial.
Daily Trust adds that a former minister who resigned over a certificate scandal was included on INEC's final list after submitting a WAEC result. The Guardian reports that Nnaji has promised free shops to traders displaced by market demolitions as part of his campaign.
These details come from a roundup of the papers, not the original articles.
