President Muhammadu Buhari and his handlers have been enmeshed what can be described as a plagiarism scandal as it has been alleged that he stole the ‘Next Level’ logo from Rex Institute for his recently launched 2019 presidential campaign which he titled ‘Next Level’
Whilst some Nigerians are yet to get over the September 2016 plagiarism scandal where his ‘Change Begins With Me’ speech was said to have been a replica of Barrack Obama’s 2008 victory speech, this logo and name theft might not be forgotten in a long while
Though President Buhari had stated that “the past few years have put us in good stead to trudge on the Next Level of building an even stronger nation for our people”., Nigerians are left confused and disappointed that the ‘Next level’ logo on his re-election campaign has a striking feature with that of Rex Institute which is the creative elongation of the ‘x’ in ‘next’
Some Nigerian President who would have none of it proceeded to call out the president on social media
Meanwhile, the ‘Next level’ plan is a project of the Winthrop University-School Partnership Network in collaboration with Fort Mill School District (York 4), Lancaster County School District, and Rock Hill School District (York 3). It is a Professional Development Program grant funded by the US Department of Education and administered through the Office of English Learner Aquisition (OELA), PR/Award # T365Z160278.
