Delivering judgment on Saturday 9th January 2021, on the suit, Justice Ahmed Mohammed said the plaintiffs relied on the photocopied certificate presented by Governor Obaseki without getting in touch with the University of Ibadan to verify the authenticity of the said certificate.
Justice Ahmed Mohammed added that no iota of truth was brought before the court by the plaintiffs who alleged forgery which is a criminal matter yet unable to prove their case.
The Court insisted that the Deputy Registrar, Legal of the University of Ibadan had given evidence in the suit that the University duly issued the certificate to Godwin Obaseki
He was duly and properly admitted to study Classics and later renamed Classical Studies in 1976 and graduated in 1979
The court concluded that the plaintiffs failed to prove their allegations of forgery against Godwin Obaseki and there is no other as to cost
