Well it’s good you have explicitly explained yourself to clear your name otherwise one would have said better to be quiet and mute about such criticisms let them fizzle out.
All Ghanaians know is the book long which they acquire but practically can’t perform to deliver the goods. In the western world you find people finishing college yet this gives them very high technical skills eg electricals etc but mann high technology machines and are merely called handymen but paid of as low as £7/hr.
Such people they come to Ghana and are given high titles like say “Electrical Engineer and so on and so forth. Though they have been given such high rating they tend to be non performing stagnating development. Besides become very irresponsible because they have been highly rated disproportionately relative to their low academic gains.
You were given jobs in Ghana as Minister for Education, Trade and Industry in government etc but you proved yourself capable and served with excellence. We want delivery of the goods not big educational titles with nothing to show practically.
You have shown your worth practically relative to your academic status and achievements.
Leave this simple humble man alone.

Your explanation makes sense. But could it be that people kept calling you Dr Dr Dr and you accepted it, without clarification. To be honest with you, I personally have always thought that you were an Academic Dr - not necessarily a PhD holder - (ie an academic Doctorate without the thesis or research work) - because anytime you speak you sound very intelligent. In any case kudos to GTEC, for the work they are doing. Going forwards if anyone does NOT have a thesis or research work to support it - they should NOT call themselves DR - it probably opens a lot of opportunities using it - but it is confusing. And as rightly pointed out here, I have never heard Clinton call himself Dr, neither has anyone ever called him Dr Clinton but in my humble opinion he is the most intelligent US President (in my lifetime!

Why are we all busy body about Dr. Title being used by someone? I can't think far.
May I after
rmlessly suggest the following :
1. PhD holders should simply indicate PhD after their names and be called doctor of say, Agric; or Political Science etc
2. Medical Doctors should write Dr. (Med.), Dr. (Den), Dr.( Pharm) etc.
3. Alternative or Herbal Medical Practitioners, Dr. (Alt.) or Dr. (Herb.)
4. Veterinary Doctors, Dr. (Vet.)
5. Osɔfo Doctor, Dr. (Gosp.) or Dr. (Pas)
6. Honorary Doctors, Dr. (Hon'y)
Just to clear the ongoing confusion. My opinion is that those who are conferred with Honorary Doctorate degrees should be allowed to use them. Why should they we bury in boxes, honours conferred on us by recognized reputable institutions.
Americans don't normally use doctor titles hence President Clinton and others are not referred to as Dr. Clinton etc.

Who cares? We Africans are so obsessed with academic credentials. I am Dr thus is Dr. that. What does that mean? Even illiterate successful businessmen want the title Dr. Meanwhile, they can't even write a damn 2 grade story correctly. But who cares?? Just be yourself. A Dr. attached to your name means nothing. It is a mere suffix. We have to stop the buffoonery and stupidity and obsession with academic credentials. Nkwaseasem k3k3.

Medical doctors use the prefix Dr but they are not PhDs. Magicians use the same prefix Dr and musicians too. So not all who use the prefix Dr are PhDs necessarily. Spio says he has never claimed to hold a PHD. His is Dr. Honoris Causa. It is also a degree earned through recognition of life time achievement. It is a highly commendable title achieved through practical demonstration of academic excellence. It is time to move away from.demeaning such earned honors. We have PhDs whose relevance to society does not extend beyond the gowns and hats they wear. Even they deserve our respect.

What about those people calling themselves HONOURABLES? Who is entitled to use the term Honorable as a prefix to their name. There are persons who are currently not MPs or gOVT mINISTERS who are using the title Honourable.

TITLE THIEF !!!
What's he trying to tell us? Of course GTEC will keep mute over his explanation for obvious reasons.
What do you see wrong with his explanation? He has not challenged GTech's authority to submit documentation for the use of the title Doctor attached to his name recently. So why that comment?
Well it’s good you have explicitly explained yourself to clear your name otherwise one would have said better to be quiet and mute about such criticisms let them fizzle out.

Ndc has no intellectuals. John Dumelo said it.
Clinton never wrote Dr Clinton and was never addressed as such. Ekow I respect you so much please just do not use the title.
Eiii my Ghana people!! Hhmmm
But we've never seen Clinton hold himself out as a Dr. This is the best excuse this fraud can proffer?! Low IQ clown!
The guy said he never used Doctor and does not intend to use it. Some people in this platform has comprehension issue.
Massa, Massa, Massa, stop that! It is there in black and white. The man said he started using the title when he became chief executive officer of commonwealth telecom organization or whatever. Aishhhhh
That’s a lie! No decent organization can force anyone to use honorary doctorate as a title or prefix against their name! For a long time period, most Ghanaians thought Spio had an earned doctorate degree till he was exposed ...

BULLSHT
the Commonwealth telecommunications directorate or whatever they are will never tell you formally to include an honorary title in your official communications. That attempted justification is NOT NOT NOT.
What do you know of the CTO pls
You are right they will never ask him to use an honorary degree for official purposes.
Probably he has to mention the name of whoever asked him to use it.
Perhaps CTO gave him permission to use the title "Dr". That is different from instructing him to use it.
GTEC is being too known. Too fastidious. Don't they have more important things to do? The rest of us don't care, anyway, as to who has a PhD or not.
Why ? We care so if you don’t just keep quiet
You write pout of ignorance of the duties of GTEC. Their mandate includes weeding out the frauds and those who go and pay a couple of $100 to be awarded degrees. That industry is vast and on average I get two of such invitati ...

The behavior of the GTEC is what is pushing a lot of politicians in Ghana to pay for doctorate degrees. They push politicians to act desperately to be called Doctors!
Why call yourself Doctor or Dr. if you are not qualified to do so. There are too many fake academic titles in Ghana, a country I love and respect.
Stop calling yourself a “ Doctor “ then. President Clinton has never referred to himself as a Doctor. You are just being dishonest, Spio-Garbrah.
Then he should stop using Dr in from of his name as he hasn't studied to earn it. He is just beating about the bush by saying that he never wrote PhD after his name.
EKOW SPIO GARBRAH COULD HAVE BEEN MORE CANDID FOR THE PAST 24 YEARS.

If you don’t use “Dr“ what will happen. Ghanaians love tites that does lead to national development. Shame shame.
It is interesting that President Clinton never uses the Doctor designation but the title- hungry Ghanaian has to use his. No wonder everybody in Ghana is a “doctor”, “professor”, “nana” or “ honorable”.
BS! So commonwealth‘commandered’ you to use it whiles you knew that was not proper. Apologize because all along and before you were appointed to the commonwealth you were referred to as Dr.
Please I need a job, I have a degree in accounting with computing you can contact me on 0244904138
Where are you based and when did you complete your accounting degree?
Somebody should verify his assertion, and does that unknown college has the capacity to award honorary doctorate if they have no doctorate programs in that school.
So what? You know damn well you are not eligible to use it.
But Bill Clinton, numerous honoris causae, and even PhD holders in the US, never go by the title, Dr., So please dont use Mr Clinton, falsely, to tickle your ego.
The honorary titles are not conferred to be kept a secret. They are conferred to used. People like Spio could not have used it if it were not confer on them. Until there is a law preventing the used of honorary titles, people ...

You are wrong Nkrumah had a PhD.
Prez Nkrumah had a Master’s degree. He had a couple of Honorary doctorate degrees.
But then Rawlings and wife both had honorary doctorates but never used it. There are a number of Ghanaians who have been honored with these titles but never used them.
But no one says you have used PhD after your name. You are accused of using the Dr. Title which should not be the case.
Spio fon't mind them. Your track record is more valuable than a phd. I f you wanted a PhD, you could have passed the corner and brought it. We know where they are bringing the PhD from. People ignore UG, UCC. Lnust and go to ...

Even the boss of the GTEC, most Ghanaian academics are questioning how he became a professor. His questionable credentials must also be scrutinized.
