E-Money, (Emeka Okonkwo), CEO of Five Star Music and elder brother of popular musician, Kcee has been disgraced.

E-money had shared pictures of himself wearing the University of Lagos (UNILAG) convocation gown on his Instagram page, he wrote;

“To God be the glory! I have just received a Honorary Doctorate Degree in Business Management and Corporate Governance at an event held inside the University of Lagos.”

“I’m joined here by the incoming Deputy Governor of Lagos, Dr Obafemi Hamzat whose father, Olatunji Hamzat (an influential politician) also bagged a Doctorate Degree.”

However, The University of Lagos, (UNILAG) has denied awarding him any doctorate degree. The school in a statement released showed the list of the people conferred with a doctorate degree and E-Money’s name was missing in the list.
