Fake University whistleblower, Dr. John Idriss Lahai has uncovered another alleged fake University that is awarding fake degrees to Sierra Leoneans.
Dr. Lahai stated that, “Another so-called university that is awarding degrees in Sierra Leone (to Sierra Leoneans) without accreditation from the TEC (Tertiary Education Commission) is the newbie called Professional Global University or Professional Global Training Institute.”
He noted that their address is at Old Immigration Building; 15 Rawdon Street, Freetown, Sierra Leone.
Dr. Lanai added that the owner and proprietor is Alim Mackie-Conteh, adding he is not new to such scandal as he was involved in the 2012 China Scholarship scam — the selling of China Scholarships that were meant to be free (his business associate in this China scholarship scam was Mohamed Yamba Bangura, the owner of the fake St Clement University (closed) and African Graduate University (closed).
He alleged that the Board Chairman, Ambassador Bon Wurie is a senior Adviser to the President of Sierra Leone, His Excellency President Maada Bio.
‘They (the Professional Global University) started awarding certificates and degrees (bachelor and master’s degree) without TEC accreditation — In violation of the law,” Dr. Lanai noted.
“Since I started my revelations on both the fake and unaccredited degrees (and their awarding institutions), Alim Mackie-Conteh have manipulated and exploited Ambassador Bon Wurie’s influence to increase pressure on the TEC to grant accreditation to his institution before I turn my radar on him/them,” he added.
Lanai however stated that TEC resisted the pressure from Alim Mackie-Conteh and Ambassador Bon Wurie, adding that they should make sure they do thorough checks (due diligence) and verifications before they award them accreditation.
‘As for the degrees he (Alim Mackie-Conteh) has awarded prior to accreditation, declare them “unusable” and “unrecognised” in Sierra Leone,” he said.
