"God is nothing without me."
Msuega said it was deliberate
In a follow-up Facebook post on Sunday, Msuega explained that his viral graduation post was not to discredit or drag his alma mater to the mud but to create awareness for himself.
He added that it was deliberate.
"In the said publication, I deliberately used wrong sentence to create awareness of my signing out from the university, though it was deliberate, but with no intentions of hurting anyone, a group, community or Institution.
"The publication has generated mixed reactions from users of social media, the academics, religious believers and different groups of people.
"It was not intended to drag the reputation of any individual, group, community or Institution to the mud, neither was the publication to discredit God."
Msuega hailed BSU as one of the best universities in Nigeria and affirmed that he could communicate properly in English.
He also stated that he believes in the existence of God.
"I want to tender my unreserved apology for making people believe a graduate can't express himself, doubting the reputation of my school, feeling I'm using God's name for joke.
"To the best of my knowledge, I have acquired education from one of the best universities in Nigeria and I can express myself very fluently, equivocally without commiting blunders of such gravity and I'm also a religious believer that believes in the existence of God."
