The University of Nairobi (UoN) has confirmed that lawyer Kethi
Kilonzo does not hold a Masters degree in Law from their institution as
she has not completed her course work.
UoN’s Vice Chancellor George Magoha said Kethi had
failed to re-sit her Legal Research and Methodology paper after failing
it and could therefore not have been awarded a Master’s degree.
“Upon failing to satisfy the examiners and pursuant to her own
request for remark in one paper GPR 602 – Legal Research and Methodology
paper, the student was advised to re-sit the paper in question in the
examination scheduled for February 2012. Ms Kilonzo is yet to re-sit the
paper and as such continues to be a student,” Magoha said in response
to an inquiry by lawyer Alphonce Mutinda.
Mutinda had raised the query on behalf of the Jubilee Alliance which
claims Kethi had a trend of falsifying documents, after the Independent
Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) found that she was not a
registered voter despite her insistence that she is.
The IEBC Nomination Disputes Resolution committee also learnt that
the voter registration slip Kethi had in her possession was one of six
stolen from a booklet used to register only former President Mwai
Kibaki.
