Just by reading the headline, you should be asking yourself this–how can this be possible? But this is Ghana, everything is possible.
The Economic and Organised Crimes Office (EOCO) has interdicted, Dr. Caleb Afaglo, the Head of IT for the Social Security and National Insurance Trust (SSNIT) for possessing fake degrees.
Starr FM reports that;
“Dr. Afaglo had indicated that he had a BSC and MBA from the Georgia Institute of Technology, and a PHD from the Kennedy Western University which has been found to be false.”
“EOCO has already conducted raids on the residence of Dr. Afaglo with his passport seized. His bank account has also been frozen by the anti-graft body.”
“Prior to his appointment at SSNIT, Dr Afaglo had worked as IT consultant for the Trust, National Pensions Regulatory Authority (NPRA), Ghana National Petroleum Corporation (GNPC), and at MTN Ghana and Action Chapel International as the Data Services Supervising Engineer.”
“The exposé over Dr. Afaglo’s qualification comes after SSNIT is being slammed for purchasing a controversial OBS software at a cost $72million.”
