It further goes to show that the degree in Arts and Communication certificate that she had allegedly obtained from Daystar University was not legitimate.

“Daystar University has confirmed that the year 2007 Degree Certificate presented by Edith Fortunate Abong’o for a Bachelor of Arts in Communication (Print Media and Public Relations) is fake as it had a different serial number, different signatures and different font theme on the name from the graduands of that year.”

Ms. Fortunate has been a longtime Personal Assistant to Amb Juma, a position she was appointed to since December, 2018 while was serving as the Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Foreign Affairs under President Uhuru’s government.

In the letter dated 26th, 2024, the commission had recommended that Ms. Fortunate be sacked from office however she still holds the office despite the evidence that her papers are fake.
