The National Universities Commission (NUC) has reportedly shut down nine Nigerian universities for operating with fake licenses.
Reports allege that the universities have been in existence for many years and have been extorting money from students who were awarded fake certificates.
The universities said to have been shut down are:
- National University of Nigeria, Keffi (Nasarawa State)
- North Central University, Otukpo (Benue State)
- Christ Alive Christian Seminary and University, (Enugu state)
- Richmond Open University, Arochukwu (Abia State)
- Saint Clements University, Iyin Ekiti (Ekiti State)
- West Coast University, Umuahia (Abia State)
- Volta University College, Aba, (Abia State)
- The satellite campuses of Ambrose Ali University

Teacher, please don’t teach me nonsense!
Only in Nigeria. No wonder when you see them here, they tell you, they have all this degree yet they cannot articulate themselves like normal ppl who actually went to college.
Abia state how fr ? 3 Uni’s ?????
lmaoo! Made in Aba!!
why are most of them from the East???
Only in Nigeria would someone pay to graduate from a uni without verifying the status of the uni. Only in Nigeria will sons of men open mammoth centers at will, without due regard for process and the institutions that regulate, only to deceive and defraud thousands whose futures now lie waste. Only in Nigeria can something of this nature happen at this level. Where was NUC when these fraud centers were operating? Where was NUC when Nigeria’s students needed to receive a legit list of universities? Talk about gross incompetence at all levels and significant deficiencies and inefficiencies. Utter systemic decay! Where were the regulators at the federal and state levels or even local levels? Who had the back of Nigeria’s desperate students when they were being defrauded? Someone saw those centers for fraudulence being constructed and launched and opened for business. Who from any of the Ministries of Education at all levels of government bothered to ask the question “what is this center?” Massive Sigh!
This has always been the case. The satelite campuses were scrapped up some years ago. I guess there are no task forces or adhoc committees in place to ensure they stay scrapped.
Some group of idiots needs to be relieved of there duties on this matter
What a shameful country is this
