HARPER, Liberia- A storm of controversy has erupted in Liberia’s southeastern Maryland County not over something related to the ongoing health emergency, but over whether or not  Superintendent George A. Prowd is fit to graduate from the pending commencement convocation of the Tubman University here.

Superintendent Prowd has refuted claims he’s is part of the 2019/2020 graduating class of the William V S Tubman University.

“I have sat the placement exams, but I haven’t even begun attending classes. So how will they say I’m graduating?” the Maryland County Superintendent asked.

His clarification follows recent comments on social media that he will be graduating during the May 30, 2020 Convocation, despite just enrolling.

The trending conversation was reportedly sparked by a post by one Gabriel Harris, a student of the College of Management and Administration at the William V S Tubman University, Liberia’s second highest government institution of learning after the University of Liberia in Monrovia.

Speaking on the local Phoenix Radio 102.7 in the County at the weekend, Superintendent Prowd said he is in no rush to graduate.

He said he was proud to be Maryland County’s first Superintendent without any formal college education.

When asked if he intends filing a law suit against those spreading the unsubstantiated news, the County Superintendent said he would waste no time behind people he brands “kids”.

But he warned them to desist or risk being caught some day in their own web as they continue to subject others to similar treatment.

Superintendent Prowd is a graduate of the Bishop Juwle High School in nearby Zwedru, Grand Gedeh County. The school is run by the Catholic Diocese of Cape Palmas.
