The Anti-corruption commission in Sierra Leone has received a complaint that the country’s Inspector General of Police (IGP) Mr. Ambrose Michael Sovula and several top government officials bought fake PhD degrees from a University in Uganda.
The complaint by a member of the public on social media sparked wide debate about fake academic certificates after carrying out research.
The citizen added that the IGP who is said to be a PhD holder is not a PhD holder and his honorary doctorate degree conferred to him is fake as he never attended the said University.

The University at the center of the scandal, the African Graduate University in Kampala, denied the allegations and threatened to sue.
