United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois in Chicago has ordered Chicago State University (CSU) to produce President Bola Tinubu‘s “only all relevant, non-privileged documents” academic records to Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.

In her ruling on President Tinubu’s emergency application in case No. 23 CV 05099, Judge Nancy L. Maldonado  directed CSU “to produce all relevant and non-privileged documents in response to Requests for Production Nos. 1 through 4 (as narrowed by Judge Gilbert and adopted here) in Mr. Abubakar’s subpoena, by 12:00 p.m. (noon) CDT, on Monday, 2nd October 2023. The Rule 30(b)(6) deposition of CSU’s corporate designee must be completed by 5:00 p.m. CDT on Tuesday, 3rd October 2023”.

On 23rd September, President Tinubu appealed against the ruling of Judge Jeffrey T. Gilbert, sitting at the United States’ District Court of Northern Illinois which ordered the CSU to release all relevant records pertaining to him to Atiku.

The President pleaded with Judge Maldonado to block all other details, especially the gender and admission records, among others of the owner of the certificate.

In the judgement on Sunday, Justice Maldonado said: “Given the 5th October 2023, filing deadline before the Supreme Court of Nigeria, the Court will not extend or modify these deadlines”.
