Reports have surfaced claiming that Dorr Copper, the Commerce Inspector, has been dismissed after an explosive degree fraud scandal took center stage. Allegations are swirling that Copper sought to secure a degree from the University of Liberia through fraudulent means, igniting a storm of controversy and raising serious questions about the integrity of public officials.
The University of Liberia (UL) didn’t mince words in their statement, confirming Copper’s involvement in the scandal. The revelation sent shockwaves through both political and academic circles, with many demanding swift and decisive action. One insider close to the matter remarked, “UL cannot dismiss those complicit in the scheme and leave the beneficiary in a position demanding trust and integrity. It’s a betrayal to the system.”
According to a source within the Ministry, “It was a tough decision, but this embarrassment could no longer hang over the Ministry and the Government. The need for accountability outweighed the challenges of the dismissal.” This insider also emphasized the mounting pressure for transparency and responsibility within Liberia’s government.

As the nation eagerly awaits official confirmation, the scandal has sparked widespread outrage, exposing the disturbing prevalence of counterfeit degrees among Liberia’s leadership. Public trust in both academic institutions and government officials is hanging by a thread, with citizens now questioning how many others may have manipulated their credentials to gain positions of power.
For many, Copper’s alleged misconduct has become more than just a scandal, it’s a wake-up call. The calls for systemic reform are louder than ever, as Liberians demand that steps be taken to restore integrity to higher education and public service. With mounting pressure on both the government and the University of Liberia to act, the fate of this scandal could have far-reaching consequences for Liberia’s future.
