The editorial staff of the IASSIST Quarterly received a charge of plagiarism for this article in September 2024, from Mr. Shadrack Mutisya, a former subordinate of Mr. Mankone. Upon receiving a draft of the paper from Mr. Mutisya, editorial staff compared its similarity to the published article using the tool iThenticate and found a 94% level of similarity between the two. Mr. Mankone has admitted to our editorial staff that he submitted his subordinate’s paper as his own without crediting Mr. Mutisya. Co-authorship being unsatisfactory to Mr. Mutisya, the IQ is retracting the article altogether. Notice has been sent to the journal’s indexing services. This being Mr. Mankone’s only paper in the IQ, this is the only paper affected. Mr. Mankone has been permanently banned from publishing with the IQ.
