The VP’s declaration was validated by two letters from the ABU. The first letter, signed by one Alhassan Garba for the institution’s registrar under
the title:“To Whom it may Concern: Mohammed Namani Sambo,” read, “I certify that the above-named person having completed an approved course of study and passed the prescribed examinations was awarded the Bachelor of Science (Architecture) with
Second Class Honours (Lower Division) in 1976 by the Senate of this University. His original certificate
got burnt. Please treat his case in view of this certification. Thank you.”
The second letter, also signed by Garba for the ABU registrar, read, “I certify that the above-named person having completed an approved course of
study and passed the prescribed examinations was awarded the Master of Science(Architecture) on May
25, 1978 by the Senate of this University. His original certificate got burnt. Please treat his case in view of this certification. Thank you.”
