Team University: What We Know About Sakaja’s university.
Nairobi Senator Johnson Sakaja has come out to say that he has a Bachelor of Science in Management degree from Team University in Uganda, despite public scrutiny and a complaint filed against him at the IEBC tribunal.
Sakaja, who is running for the Nairobi governorship, stated in a reply affidavit to the IEBC on Monday that he received his degree from Team University, a duly registered higher learning institution in Uganda.
“My qualifications and academic credentials are not in doubt having affirmed through a lawful process,” reads Sakaja’s papers in part.
Sakaja’s Team University is not well-known in Kenya, so here’s what we know about it.
He has also denied using the names mentioned in the complaint, claiming that he is not Johnson Koskei Sakaja, as stated in the complaint.
“The complaints herein are legally incompetent, fatally defective having been lodged outside the prescribed statutory timeliness,”he says.
While requesting that the tribunal dismiss the complaint against him, Sakaja claims that the allegations that he did not graduate from Team University are unfounded, claiming that there are other pages of his graduation certificate that were omitted.
Dennis Gakuu Wahome has sued Sakaja for allegedly not having the required educational qualifications.
