A candidate for the position of IEBC commissioner has withdrawn from the race over a forged degree. The selection panel made the announcement on Wednesday, as interviews began at KICC. "On June 28, the selection panel wrote to the Kenya Methodist University seeking verification of Abdalla’s Bachelor’s Degree which he had alleged to have been awarded on July 28, 2007," she said. “This is to confirm that Abdalla Mohamed was not a student of Kenya Methodist University. The academic certificated BUS-1-206-05 was not issued by Kenya Methodist University and is therefore a forgery,” the university Vice-Chancellor said.
