ARISE News announces that political analyst Anthony Kila will no longer appear on its television channel or other platforms following allegations that he falsified his academic credentials.

The decision follows an investigative report by Premium Times questioning Kila’s academic qualifications, which prompted the network to seek clarification from the analyst.

INVESTIGATION: ANTHONY KILA’S ‘DEGREES’

ARISE News wishes to advise that Anthony Kila, who has appeared several times on this network as a freelance political analyst and has been the subject of a damning investigative report by Premium Times Newspapers, will no longer appear on the ARISE News Channel.

Following claims that Anthony Kila falsified his entire academic credentials we contacted Mr Kila on 03 October, 2026 with the allegations. He asked for more time to respond to the claims. He has not responded 10 days after. Instead the allegations have gotten worse.

In the circumstances, we find that his contributions to The ARISE News Channel is no longer tenable.

ARISE News was unaware of these allegations at the time Anthony Kila appeared on our platform as we take matters of credibility and integrity extremely seriously.

We have noted the findings of the Premium Times investigation and Mr Kila will not be appearing on our networks at anytime now or in future – effective immediately. (Arise News)
