Correction/Apology
January 13, 2015 | By KNews | Filed Under News, Source - Kaieteur News
In a letter published on Sunday January 11, 2015, Mr Freddie Kissoon wrote of Dr. Prem Misir, “This is a man who worked for the past fifteen years in a full time job as a propagandist for the Office of the President, yet miraculously calls himself a Professor after he says he was awarded such by North Lancashire University, an institution no one has heard of.”
Nowhere is there any record of Prof Misir contending that he gained a professorship from North London University. All the local newspapers of January 11, 2012 reported that the professorship was awarded by the University of Central Lancashire.
Prof Misir was appointed Honorary Professor of Public Health at the University of Central Lancashire and supplied proof.
It was a temporary professorship that ended on August 30, 2014. On making the appointment, the University addressed Dr. Misir as Professor Misir.
We apologise to Dr. Misir.
