“This is to state that Mr Korane Ali Bunow is not a graduate of degree of Master's of Business Administration of this university on December 2, 2011. Though master's degree is not required to vie for the governor seat, Mr Korane presented certificate to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission last year while contesting for the seat. In an interview with Nation, Mr Korane insisted that he graduated from the university adding that he had written to the institution over the same. Mr Korane joins a growing list of politicians with fake academic qualifications with some battling their cases in court. Last year, University of Nairobi deregistered Meru Senator Mithika Linturi as a law student for presenting fake papers to get admission.
