Last fall, Mr Diddy returned to Howard University to fulfill a promise.

He made a $1 million donation to reaffirm his unwavering commitment to preserving America’s historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs).

However, due to actions by the American rap mogul that recently came to light, Howard University issued a statement revoking the honorary degree it was awarded in 2014. It also suspended a scholarship program in Diddy’s name and returned the donation of a million dollars.

The university’s decision came after video was released showing him violently assaulting singer Cassie, his former partner.

In a statement, the university explained its decision to revoke Diddy’s honorary degree, noting that “his conduct…is fundamentally inconsistent with the university’s core values ​​and beliefs, and he is deemed no longer worthy of the institution’s highest honor.” .

“The university is unwavering in its opposition to all acts of interpersonal violence” noted in the announcement.

Diddy he only attended Howard for two years.

Earlier this year, US federal authorities raided his properties in Los Angeles and Miami as part of an investigation into human trafficking for sexual exploitation. The rapper, music producer and entrepreneur has repeatedly denied the allegations.
