\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Ghanaian dancehall and afrobeats musician Stonebwoy has addressed recent claims suggesting that his recently acquired GIMPA (Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration) certificate was gifted to him rather than earned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The allegations were made by an individual who claimed to be a classmate of Stonebwoy, asserting that the musician was rarely seen attending classes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In response, Stonebwoy firmly dismissed the claims, urging Ghanaians to ignore what he called a \u201cfalse narrative.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He explained that GIMPA is a reputable institution where students, regardless of their status, must work hard to earn their degrees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cGIMPA isn\u2019t a school that individuals or popular people will easily be accorded marks for attendance\u2019 sake,\u201d Stonebwoy stated, emphasizing that he earned his Second Class Upper degree through \u201cblood, sweat, and tears.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During an interview on GTV, Stonebwoy further expressed his frustration with the rumours, attributing them to a \u201cpoverty-stricken mentality\u201d and a \u201cfailure mentality.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, he defended his academic efforts, noting that he attended evening classes due to his schedule, which may have contributed to the misconceptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI couldn\u2019t have done the morning, so I was in evening school, that\u2019s why I love GIMPA for how you can get it done,\u201d Stonebwoy said, adding that the institution has measures like cameras in exam halls to ensure integrity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He used the national platform to denounce those spreading the rumours, calling them out for attempting to tarnish his achievement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nonetheless, Stonebwoy climaxed his statement by expressing his satisfaction with earning his degree and urged others to focus on inspiring and educating rather than spreading baseless accusations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ghanaian dancehall and afrobeats musician Stonebwoy has addressed recent claims suggesting that his recently
