London South Bank University ‘confirms’ Wavinya Ndeti completed degree in 10 months

London South Bank University has confirmed that Machakos Governor candidate Wavinya Ndeti did her Computer Science degree from September 1994 to July 1995.

In a letter shared by Wavinya online, the university said it awarded her lower second class honours after completing the course in 10 months.

"This is to confirm that the above-named person (Wavinya Oduwole) was a full-time student at South Bank (now London South Bank University) from September 1994 to July 1995 studying on the BSc (Hons) Computing Studies Course,

"Wavinya Oduwole successfully completed the course and was awarded a Lower Second Class Honours (2.2) on July 18 1995," reads London South Bank University letter dated October 15, 2018.

Wavinya's transcripts can't be traced

The university, however, could not provide transcripts saying there was no proper record system at the time.

"We are unfortunately not able to provide a transcript as our student record system did not gain the ability to store the information required for a transcript until September 1998.

"Prior to that date, we have a record of enrolment, progression, and award only," the letter added.

Wavinya shared the letter after a petitioner challenged Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to compel her to produce her valid credentials.

"We hope that this will adequately dispel the baseless propaganda being peddled by our clumsy competitors and silence naysayers.

"We are soldiering on undeterred by their nuisance and sideshows. Our focus is to win and deliver for the people of Machakos County," she wrote on her Facebook page.

Wavinya is vying for the governor seat on a Wiper Party ticket.
