UDA Nairobi gubernatorial candidate Johnson Sakaja now claims that he did not finish his education at the University of Nairobi because he lacked fees.
In an interview on Friday morning at Spice FM, Sakaja said lack of tuition fee forced him to drop out of the university
“There is a document being shared that shows it was the issue of fees. There were a few units I did not complete but the ceremony of graduation is not what confers the knowledge to you,” he said.
The Nairobi Senator said he would eventually go back to UoN to finish his studies in the near future.
“By the time I was able to afford the fee, I was too embarrassed and shy to go back to class. But that is something I will be able to go back and finish. About two or three units. There is no law that says you must bring a degree from UoN.”
Sakaja defended his Team University degree, saying the document is legit.
He insisted that he will be on the ballot and termed the ongoing probe on his degree as a political witch hunt.
On Thursday the Commision for University Education(CUE) revoked Sakaja’s degree for the second time.
CUE says that the University degree from Teams University is not eligible for consideration since Sakaja failed to provide sufficient evidence to prove he acquired his degree procedurally.
