The Minister designate, Mr. Anthony Kromah of the Ministry of National Security credentials had been challenged by individuals claiming to be former employees of the ministry.

Speaking in an interview when they walked into the offices of this paper, over the weekend, the group spoke person who identified himself as Momoh Dorbor alleged that all the documents displayed to the media by Minister Kromah are fake and contradictory to his assertions.

He said that the curriculum vitae publish in the April 24th edition of the Inquirer shows that Mr. Kromah earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Justice Administration in May 1988 with discipline in criminology whereas there is no discipline attached to the copy of his degree. "We are taking aback how did he gets his degree in Criminal Justice," Mr. Dorbor emphasized.

He added that all of Mr. Kromah's credentials and information given to the public are all fake and contradictory because according to him, Minister Kromah claimed he earns a Bachelor of Science degree, wherein a copy of his documents from his recent press conference held after the senate rejected him shows that he earns a Bachelor of Arts Degree.

According to Col. Dorbor, the address and number of the University of the District of Columbia, where Minister Kromah claimed he has graduated, are all invalid.

He said contrary to the addresses and numbers provided by Minister Kromah, the accurate address and number for the university are as follow: <http://www.udc.edu/academic_affairs and 202/274-5072>.

He called on the senate not to confirm Minister Kromah because he did not have the credential for the position as he claims.

However, when he spoke to the press after the senate said he has been rejected, Minister Kromah said he has a Master from the Columbia University stressing that despite of the fact that he provided to the senate all the necessary information they would have needed to verify claims, against him, the August body failed to do so.
