The All Africa Conference of Churches (AACC) wants Uganda’s Team University to revoke Nairobi Senator Johnson Sakaja’s Bachelor of Science in Management degree.
AACC, a Nairobi-based fellowship of 500 member churches, wrote to the university’s management seeking a detailed explanation about the circumstances under which the said degree was issued and disciplinary action taken against the officials who issued it.
The body has asked the institution to provide it with a certified copy of the list of those who graduated on October 21st, 2016 together with Senator Sakaja, Ugandan publication Daily Monitor reported.
They also want to be furnished with a copy of Sakaja’s admission letter, details of payment of tuition fees, and the mode of instruction leading up to the award of the degree in question. The religious organization further demanded proof that Sakaja attended all the classes or minimum threshold of classes required to graduate whether physical or online.
“Sakaja was a nominated Member of Parliament in Kenya between 2013 and 2017. Therefore, it is not practically possible that he physically attended classes in Team University as the university has no campus in Kenya and from the available records in the Kenyan parliament, there is no evidence of Sakaja’s absenteeism from parliament to enable him to have physically attended the school,” AACC says in a letter to the university.
It further argues that Team University had not been licensed to offer online lessons at the time when Sakaja claims to have gone to school there.
“As for online classes, your university was not licensed to offer online classes and indeed did not offer any such classes during the period between 2012 and 2016 when Mr Sakaja claims to have attended the school,” the letter adds.
AACC noted that Sakaja, who presented the degree for clearance to vie for the Nairobi governor seat in the August elections, has only traveled to Uganda once, on October 17th, 2014, while on parliamentary duty.
The body also wants the university to explain why the degree that was reportedly issued to Sakaja is categorized as “Bachelor of Science in Management (External)” and not “Bachelor of Science in Management” as was captured in the graduation booklet.
It also seeks to know why Sakaja’s name neither appears on the graduation list nor the addendum of the graduation booklet.
The Commission for University Education (CUE) revoked the recognition of Sakaja’s degree on June 15th pending investigations into its authenticity. CUE later withdrew a letter revoking the degree after Sakaja obtained a court order.

It is unfortunate that we have been made aware of multiple false statements made by various press outlets claiming to be from the All Africa Conference of Churches (AACC). We would like to categorically state that the All Africa Council of Churches (AACC) has not written any letter or statement regarding Senator Johnson Sakaja.
The All Africa Conference of Churches remains politically neutral and committed to advocating for peaceful, free, and fair elections across the African continent. We have not been approached by any journalists or outlets to either confirm or deny that such a statement exists or even for comment. We continue to contact the various media outlets in question to retract their false claims, and we hope that journalistic integrity will prevail as we pursue truth.

AACC “All African Conference Churches”?
When did these churches start wearing political outfits or become auditors?
The AACC has very good questions for Sakaja and because they are churches who supposedly are guardian of moral standards, they should ask the same questions for Raila?
All these things that they are asking of Sakaja should equally apply to Raila who is seeking a more powerful office.
Raila’s technical college was not in a position to issue a degree when Raila is suppose to have graduated.
The AACC cannot ask questions on one candidate and hide behind ” Churches” to interfere with politics.
Churches are not holier than thou.
These so called “Churches” must remove their vale and come out as politicians and bring out their demands across the board.
It’s time those so called “Churches” start paying taxes. They are in business like any other or keep their mouth shut.!!
We look forward to answers both on Sakaja and Raila.
He paid all the greedy cons…
He paid all the greedy cons from vice chancellor to registrars millions to ‘cook’ some documents for Sakaja. Shame on us Africans!!!!!
