Claim:<\/strong> Martin K. N. Kollie, a Facebook user, alleged<\/a> that the license of Peter Matthew George, President Emeritus of the Liberia Medical and Dental Association (LMDA), was revoked after exposing George\u2019s alleged fake credentials.<\/p>\n\n\n

Verdict:<\/strong> False! The LMDC revoked the medical license of Peter Matthew George on April 21, 2025, several weeks before Martin K. N. Kollie\u2019s Facebook post. Therefore, his post did not trigger the revocation, as claimed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Full Text<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

On May 8, 2025, Martin K. N. Kollie, an exiled Liberian activist, posted that the medical license of the president emeritus of the Liberia Medical and Dental Association (LMDA), Peter Matthew George, had been revoked just two hours after he exposed George\u2019s alleged use of fake medical credentials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his post, Martin wrote:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBreaking News: Two hours after exposing the fake medical credentials of the president of LMDA, Peter George, his license has been immediately REVOKED by the Liberia Medical and Dental Council. He has also been removed as President. #ProsecuteHim<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The post has since sparked a wave of mixed reactions on social media. While many praised Martin for supposedly triggering the revocation, others questioned the accuracy of the timeline he provided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are a few of the comments from the post:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emmanuel Leekplah Cuput: <\/strong>Great job! I FULLY support the campaign to weed out credential fraudsters. Quacks like Peter George MUST be apprehended and incarcerated immediately! Imagine how many people he has messed up with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patrick M\u2019bayo:<\/strong> This incident highlights the depth of the decay in most of our institutions. The LDMA and those responsible for licensures in Liberia\u2019s medical system must be held accountable for this appalling failure of leadership and institutional oversight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Laoban Roberto:<\/strong> Martin K. N. Kollie<\/a>, that’s not true …I’m a medical doctor and I’m part of the process…how can u say we revoked his license after u exposed him just in 2 hours of ur post? U think LMDC will take such an action only because u posted on Facebook? I love the work u do, but certain things are just not too good to do… Don’t be like the person u say u exposed! Peace buddy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
