Education Minister Defends Tinubu's First-Class Degree

Tunji Alausa, the Minister of Education, defended President Bola Tinubu's academic credentials during an interview on Channels Television. He claimed that Tinubu graduated with a first-class degree in Accounting from Chicago State University in the United States.
