Go to University of Ghana and other public Universities in Ghana, you find people with the so called Professorship awards who can hardly teach. They have nothing to their names rather than people's works they have copied and shown has their. They have nothing original

This what is wrong with with most Ghanaians. Nowhere in the man's bio does it list him as teaching at a university level and yet he calls himself a professor. Professor is a title resevered for any person in academia with teaching experience. You don't called a professor by virtue of having a PhD and don't have any university level teaching experience.

@ Nana1, think “small” laaa. Below is from ESI:

Per Warnborough University's wikipedia page:

"In November 2005 Ireland's Department of Education and Science said that Warnborough University in Ireland was in breach of the Universities Act 1997 by calling itself a university and requested that they not use the word "university".[11] Earlier in 2005, the inclusion of Warnborough and other unauthorized degree providers on a UK Department for Education and Skills (DFES) list of "genuine" education providers was described as an "embarrassment" to DFES.[12]"

It appears "Prof" Agyeman-Dua received a degree from an unaccredited university, which would mean his stated 'professorship' itself is questionable.

And this uni has been known worldwide in different issues to be unaccredited and not fit to even give a Bachelors degree, let alone a PhD. This is by his own account.

A professorship title, in the university , is awarded through a meritorious award committee that sits, short lists, conducts interviews, and awards qualified faculty members. Where did Agyemang Duah state his award was conferred on him through this rigorous academic process? Shame on him. Even that two years he claimed to have spent studying to qualify from Part 1 to Part 3 of ACCA, if due diligence is conducted, I will not be surprised that he would be caught in peddling a naked falsehood

This "Prof" should take it cool. You are not conferred the title professor without have worked for it. In academia were these titles are awarded, you need to be a senior member ie (PhD). You are then promoted through the ranks from lecture(starting point), senior lecturer, associate professor and full professor. These are all achieved through publications (the most important criteria) before other factors are considered. Those days where a Masters degree holders were senior members (30+ years ago). You could have been a professor without PhD. You still had to publish before you can get that title. Now which of these has he done to be called a professor?

He lacks any relevant publications necessary to qualify as a senior lecturer. Not a single publication in a reputable WoS or Scopus indexed journal exists in his record, yet he claims the title of professor. There is no UK university that would grant professorship to someone with such a weak publication profile. His record shows an absence of journal article publications or intellectual property contributions. It's clear that those uninformed publications, despite having "Prof" in his name, do not hold any credence, as reputable publishers do not associate the title of Professor with inferior work. He presents himself as a so-called professor, but his profile is a clear indication of his inadequacies to anyone knowledgeable in academia.

Which professor in Ghana do you know who hasn't accomplished anything, even though from your comment, I know there is no Professor or academic in your family. It’s easy to make unfounded statements when you don’t understand the dedication and hard work that true professors put into their fields. Just because some professors aren’t loud or flashy doesn’t mean they lack achievements. What exactly is on this man’s CV that qualifies him as a professor? If you have no real knowledge of academia or how promotions work, I suggest you stay silent—this isn’t a casual conversation or political debate.

The man is utterly lacking in qualifications. His publication record is subpar, and he exhibits no teaching ability whatsoever. Whether you consider him for a teaching or research professor position, he falls short on both counts. Even research professors have a minimum teaching requirement, and teaching professors must meet publication standards, yet this individual doesn't meet either. His profile is nothing short of a disgrace in both teaching and research. He operates like a scam artist, preying on those who are unfamiliar with the academic landscape. It's quite clear.

If you have issues with Ghana's development, direct your concerns towards the politicians, not the professors. Their role is to conduct research and provide recommendations, but it's ultimately up to politicians to implement those recommendations. It's unjust to place the blame on professors.

Haha! Let's talk about those books and publications—it seems they might not hold much weight in the academic world. It's evident you may not be fully acquainted with what constitutes genuine scholarly work, so I’ll have to respectfully decline engaging further. The materials he has presented are subpar, and anyone could easily whip those up in a matter of months and claim the title of Professor.

In academia, especially in Africa and notably in the UK, there are rigorous standards for what qualifies as legitimate books and publications for professorship. If he truly wishes to be taken seriously, he should present at least one publication indexed in WoS or Scopus. Only then can we even begin to consider his qualifications for a lecturer position in Ghana, let alone that of a Senior Lecturer or Associate Professor. As it stands, he lacks any such credentials, and it’s clear to those with a discerning eye that his profile lacks the authenticity one would expect from a true academic. But it seems that some, who do not fully grasp the nuances of academia, might still choose to praise him.

Which UK University granted this man a professorship? By 2013, despite holding a PhD, he had not published a single journal article or any intellectual property. His contributions consisted solely of non-peer-reviewed stories and obscure books. It’s clear that no university would grant him a professorship based on such a lackluster publication record. Professorship is fundamentally about contributing to knowledge, and he has made no significant contributions whatsoever. Anyone familiar with academia recognizes that his profile is far too weak to even qualify for a senior lecturer position in Ghana, let alone in the UK.

It seems you may not fully grasp the nuances of academia and the promotion process. If you did, you wouldn't dismiss my argument as mere conjecture. I encourage you to take some time to delve into the comments and identify the voices of those well-versed in academic matters. A simple search on global applications for professorship positions will reveal the specific requirements that are expected.

We must question the credibility of his qualifications; his publications are, quite frankly, lacking in substance and do not merit a PhD in today’s academic environment. He does not hold the title of professor, as his profile unmistakably indicates. Those who remain unaware of academic standards may find it easy to laud him, but let’s be clear: he may excel as an accountant, yet he falls short in both research and teaching necessary for a professorship.

I urge you to educate yourself on these matters; that is the beauty of the internet at our fingertips. Let’s elevate the discourse and foster a culture of excellence within our academic system. This is not a political debate, but a call for scholarly integrity.

With all due respects, you seem to be impressed with this man's lengthy and useless academic titles that only degree-obssessed Ghanaians like you will fall for. Nowhere does his bio indicate a professorship in a university setting teaching. Professor is a tenured rank earned through teaching at a university level and going through the ranks from assistant professor, associate professor and then professor. A retired professor can be called professor emeritus. Your man never taught a class at any university level. The man is a fraud and shouldn't call himself a professor. It is akeen to someone calling himself teacher, while he has never set foot in class room to teach any students.

The man is a very experienced accountant with vast international experience. He has done very well.

However, there are three criteria for promotion in Universities i.e. peer reviewed publications, teaching and community service. A professor must demonstrate exceptional outputs in ALL these areas.
While he is strong in teaching and community service, he has next to nothing and weak in peer reviewed publications (journal articles). No credible university will make a person like that a professor. Even the way he has cited his publications shows his weakness in the most important criterion for becoming a professor... peer reviewed publication.
A good accountant? Yes. A professor? hmmmmm.

It is quite intriguing some of the ill-informed discussions about this issue and the conclusions being drawn. First of all, the title Professor is an academic rank and NOT a degree. For this reason, unlike academic degrees, you earn it through a promotion process and NOT by conferment. To earn it, you should demonstrate a scholarly contribution to knowledge through a rigorous process (based on the British format) including publications that are peer-reviewed at the highest standard among other requirements as well as an external assessment process. For the benefits of those who are not familiar with this process, in most universities in Ghana (public or private) you need to first be promoted to the rank of a Senior Lecturer with a minimum of five (5) peer-reviewed publications, followed by a promotion to the rank of Associate Professor with an additional minimum of seven (7) peer-reviewed publications, and finally to the rank of PROFESSOR with an additional minimum of nine (9) peer-reviewed publications. This should informed everyone than in Ghana, to earn the rank of PROFESSOR from any GTEC accredited university, you need no less than twenty one (21) peer-reviewed publications to merit consideration for such promotion. I should also add that in UK and Europe where such academic systems are commonly used (from whence Ghana adopted its academic system), the requirements (although varied) are even much higher than that of Ghana's. I am not in a habit of placing judgement on people's academic credentials but using the list of publications presented (assuming all are peer-reviewed and of high standard), it does not meet the minimum number of publications to warrant the promotion to the rank of Professor in any proper University in Ghana. Secondly, the promotion to any academic rank (and particularly in the case of Professorial Ranks) is done with an official letter from the highest governing body of the said University. I am therefore surprised that this individual instead of providing such a letter to buttress his claim of holding such a rank rather chose to give GTEC a history of academic and professional life (a CV). It is indeed an affront on academia for anyone to indiscriminately use titles that are not earned rightly so. Let a sanitised system prevails in this country before we wake up one day and everyone doubt the title Dr. or Prof. Thank you all for your understanding.

I am looking at this case from a totally different angle. Just look at the names of his accusers and compare it to his, Dua Agyeman. If his last name had been Tsikata, Blankson, Idirrisu, Mawule, Amugi or Jinakpor all these nonsense about being a "Professor" would not have come about.

His accusers do not expect an Akan or more specifically an Ashanti to be a "Professor". Asante man is supposed to be a cocoa farmer so his income could be use to sponsor others education. Remember, University of Ghana was built on the back of cocoa farmers, majority of them at that time were from Ashanti, Western Ashanti and Western Region.

Do you remember when these so called "smart" bureuacrats will award Cocoa Marketing Board (CMB)scholarships to their kids whilst denying same to kids of cocoa farmers. Remember when they vigrously persuade college applicants with Asante names like Ageman Dua to pursue Agric Science even though their grades qualify them for their first choice at the medical school. Ask them why and they will tell you none of your parents or relatives has ever been a medical doctor so stick to the line of occupation of your parents.

The same people or same blood line are now telling Dua Agyeman that he cannot be a "professor" because the title doesn't suit his name. THINK ABOUT THAT GHANA !!!

Oh brother, it is crucial to acknowledge that there are numerous esteemed Asante professors in universities both within Ghana and internationally. The individual in question simply does not hold that title; rather, he is making a mockery of himself. There is a glaring absence of credible publications from reputable outlets, despite his claim to a PhD, and he has not attained tenure at any institution that would allow him to ascend to professorship. This issue transcends ethnicity or tribal affiliations; it is fundamentally about the evidence—or lack thereof—presented on his CV.

We must advocate for GTEC to implement reforms that will ensure integrity within our academic system. It is essential that our universities, and the bright minds who may never have the chance to study abroad, receive the recognition they deserve. Our aim should be to ensure that their qualifications are respected and that they have access to opportunities beyond Ghana's borders.

It is crucial to understand that GTEC (Ghana Tertiary Education Commission) is not unfairly targeting any Ghanaian individuals. Instead, its focus is on holding accountable those who misrepresent their qualifications in a manner that the law explicitly prohibits. If GTEC were to encounter issues—such as a failure to ensure the validity of certificates—this could lead to serious repercussions, including our students being denied opportunities for further education abroad. In such instances, the very individuals now criticizing GTEC would be the first to demand answers: What was GTEC doing to safeguard our educational standards?

This situation goes beyond mere regulation; it is about maintaining the integrity of our academic institutions and ensuring that the qualifications we hold are acknowledged and respected on an international level. By upholding strict standards, GTEC contributes to a system where excellence is recognized and where our graduates can compete fairly in the global marketplace.

I urge everyone to allow GTEC to perform its vital role in our education system. If you do not possess the credentials of a Professor or Doctor, please avoid assuming those titles without the necessary qualifications. Conversely, if you do not see the significance of these titles, you are free to forgo them. Nevertheless, if you aspire to use these prestigious designations, be prepared to invest the effort to earn them, just as countless others have done before you. In the end, this pursuit of integrity and excellence is not just about personal ambition; it is about elevating the standards of education for all in our country. Ultimately, it is that straightforward.

@Emmanuel Osei Boakye, shame on you rather. If you don’t understand how one becomes a professor—shut your mouth and stay in your corner. Having a lot of publications in substandard journals does NOT make one a professor. Even having publications in top journals alone doesn’t make one a professor. One must have high impact publications, teach CV lasses, and contribute to the community, among others. Each university’s criteria could be slightly different.

Unrelated to this issue, but someone said above that this man was collecting (actually DEMANDING) BRIBES from companies for audits. If true, then it’s very sad.
