CLAIM: The Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Sokoto, Matthew Kukah, claimed that President Bola Tinubu did not sign a peace accord when he was a presidential candidate in 2023. He disclosed this while speaking at the 2024 Edo Election Security Townhall organised by Channels TV on Sep. 15. It has also been published on Facebook as seen here, here and here.
FINDINGS: Checks by the NFC show that two peace accords were signed by presidential candidates to prevent violence during Nigeria’s 2023 general election. Tinubu was absent at the first one organised by the National Peace Committee held on Sep. 29, 2022. He was, however, represented by his vice, Kashim Shettima.
However, Tinubu was present at the signing of the second pact held on Feb. 23, 2023.
VERDICT: INCORRECT
