As a matter of fact,some people who obtained Phd from certain mushroom Unis in America are dubious and cannot be trusted.The PHDs were either confered on them or money exchanged hands without basic accademic credentials. Once upon a time,there were two friends of mine who travelled together to the US to pursue accademic courses to better up their chances of getting better jobs,ie,white colour jobs,when they returned to Ghana,lo and behold,one of them wrote to me after two years to imform me that he had obtained his PHD in psychology and he was returning to Ghana to arrange for his wife to join him there.To my utter amasement,I questioned him about the efforts of the other friend,and for my imformation, the so called Phd holder told me that, he is still studying but coutioned that, I should not let the hard studious friend get to know about his quick accomplishment,and when I asked why, he told me,he might envy him, which was not the right answer I expected from him.Infact,some people think they are more cleverer than others, but in the case of academic laurels ones practical performances on the job would put light on whether you hold a right qualification or not.

Stupid fool..least of your age mates are thinking of becoming independent. You better start dreaming of getting serious. ROTTEN-EGG-HEADED vagabonds of your caliber will forever be abominable to your mothers' womb. Dr GATSI is a respected human being and never would he stoop so low associating himself to "rats" like you nor join you eat from the gutters.

I reviewed that stupid report yesterday and was amazed that someone would choose to concentrate his energy on prominent people whose efforts they can only envy to pull down. The publication was foolishness. We are in this country when most influential awards and all kinds on nonsense with the media happens. There is RTP, QRS and the rest. What is wrong with honouring those whose feat, when followed would progress this country further. The writers are sick animals who deserve nothing but an examination of their brains. Poor souls

Now look at you too. You better put your house in order before talking about others. Check your grammar here. There is no concord between quote and indicate and between English and have. Yours is worst.

Those two guys who wrote the report must be ashamed of themselves. They are evil doers hell bent on destroying others. Just out of interest, if, for instance a school with 1000 students is found to be unaccredited, will they go about and publish the names of all the students? They are sick and should be ashamed. Couldnt they have just mentioned the schools without mentioning the individuals involved? If this had been another country they would have been sued big time. If the individuals relied on the school's attestation and enrolled with them or accepted whatever the school offered, they can still sue the two authors of the report for public redicule even if the degrees were fake as they claim

WITHOUT MEASURES TO CLEAN UP, THE FALSE DEGREES AND PHD TITLES MANY GHANAIANS CLAIM TO HOLD, THE HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS WILL CONTINUE TO PRODUCE LOW CLASS GRADUATES WITHOUT SCIENTIFIC KNOW-HOW IN THE COUNTRY.

HOW MANY GHANAIANS WHO DO HOLD PHD TITLES,HAVE PLACE THEIR DESSERTATION AT THE UNIVERSITY AND PUBLIC LIBRARIES FOR THE READING ATTENTION OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS AND THE PUBLIC AT LARGE.

IF UNIVERSITIES IN GHANA ARE EVEN AWARDING PHD TITLES TO ILLITEATES BUSINESSMEN,THIS BECOMES VERY EASY FOR THESE SO CALLED GRADUATES TO PAVE THEIR WAY THROUGH APPOINTED REGISTRARS OF UNIVERSITIES, TO APPOINT THESE CROOKS AND ROGUES TO BE LECTURERS AT THE UNIVERSITIES AND EVEN TO HOLD PUBLIC POSITIONS IN THE COUNTRY.

HOW DO WE THEN PROGRESS AND TO OVECOME OUR ECONOMIC BACKWARDNESS, UNDERDEVELOPMENT AND POVERTY IN THE COUNTRY.

After reading the full report, let someone tell Gatsi that not only will he loose the case, he will be punished severely if he attempts suing. People should read the full report and stop the illiterate commentary.

Re: dr(apuuu) Kofi Mensah. If indeed you are a doctorate holder as you claim then you are nothing but a typical apology the PHD would. I wonder what kind of a true intellectual,as you claim to be, would engage in this kind of shallow mindedness as you are doing per your comments on this ALLEGED fake doctorate hogwash story. I expected you to apply some common sense here(that is if you have any) to question the veracity of the story in the first place and then ask yourself whether the National Accreditation Board has recognized DR JOHN GATSI'S PHD or not. You are such an unrivalled DZIMAKPLA persona. I challenge you to put your own certificates and dissertations right here first(if you have any). Kwasiaaa nipa like you.

I can clearly see jealousy, mischief and vague propaganda here. DR JOHN GATSI is a teetotaller and has nothing to do with beer. Moreso, he doesn't mingle with the calibre of seasoned winos who are peddling this kind of falsehood about him. I strongly believe that if people like Kojo adu and his cohorts should have just one percent of DR JOHN GATSI'S intellectual prowess they would have been busy using their time to do something more sensible than dabbling in this kind of philosophical stupidity.

A Senior lecturer at the University of Cape Coast (UCC), and Economist, Dr. John Gatsi, has refuted assertions that his Doctorate Degree received from the Swiss based SMC University is fake.
According to Dr. Gatsi, he worked hard for a period of six years between 2008 to March 2014 for his doctorate in finance from the university, which he says is duly accredited by the universal Accreditation Body for Business Schools and Programs.

Dr. Gatsi’s reaction follows news reports that suggested that some prominent Ghanaians including him, may have paid to be conferred with honorary doctorates degrees in different disciplines.
“What has happened in the SMC is that they had multiple accreditation as at the time they came to Ghana and that was acceptable to the National Accreditation Board (NAB) as a foreign institution to offer their programs here and during that period that they were registered here, some Ghanaians including myself had faith in the NAB’s acceptance of that institution to operate in Ghana and for that matter we had our doctoral degree from there,’’ he said.
According to him, the compliance of the university’s compliance with their registration has nothing to do with him as the NAB has emphatically indicated that the doctoral degree he (Dr Gatsi ) and others obtained are genuine, valid and comparable and equivalent to any doctoral degree offered in Ghana’’
Speaking further, the Economist and Lecturer said his awarding university was duly recognized by the National Accreditation Board as at the time he completed his doctoral course in 2014.
Accreditation board withdraws SMC’s registration
Meanwhile, the National Accreditation Board (NAB) says The Swiss Management Centre (SMC), which runs courses in Ghana as a foreign university, can no longer enroll fresh students as the Accreditation Board has withdrawn its registration.
However, continuing students can still go ahead and complete their courses since the NAB has maintained the registration of the SMC for such students in the next three years.
This was disclosed by the Executive Director of the NAB, Mr. Kwame Dattey, who says the credentials of graduates from the SMC who obtained their degrees during the period the NAB registered it are still valid.
