  • SGT ANANI FIADZOE 10 years ago

    Kweku Baako got one 6, two 7s, and six 9s at GCE O/L. So the appropriate honorary award for him is GCE O/L Distinction, not a PhD.

  • insight to the bone 10 years ago

  • Kwaku Manu 10 years ago

    He has been given a paper certificate of stocks and green bucks from E & P, so why would he need a non-valueless Doctorate Degree!

  • Sani not Abacha 10 years ago

    Where cometh E&P, explain?

  • Kwaku Manu 10 years ago

    These days he has been doing a lot of promotion for E & Ps $50m SSNIT backed loan. So I suspect they mave given him one of their very "expensive" Diplomas for him to be so happy to do PR for them.

  • KWASI 10 years ago

    Kweku is cutting his coat according to his size, period. He doesn't want any title that may hunt him down!

  • Sani not Abacha 10 years ago

    According to him, if he was not able to complete a simple first degree at GIMPA, there is no way he will accept a doctorate. “I know I am book-short: and happy with where I have gotten to, in spite of no certificates to my ...

    Kwaku I will commend any university that gives you such an award. You are a role model to many young journalist who want to be like you. You researched and published stories that a PhD is not enough reward for you. Congrats

    Kwaku doesn't need a doctorate to improve his thinking. He is already great without one. Kwaku, keep on being yourself.

    It seems this man does not understand Honorary Degrees.

    A person may be awarded Honorary Degree, even if he has not sat on a bench before. Again, being a Dr Hon does not mean you are a PhD holder and can work with it.
