Nigerian university asks Masters degree holder to rewrite exams years after she graduated

A senior lecturer has accused a Nigerian university of asking a Masters degree holder to rewrite some courses years after she graduated and was issued her certificate.

Dr Dipo Awojide said the lady, who finished her MSc in 2016, applied for a transcript to allow her study abroad but she was told that she failed some courses and needed to retake them.

This comes after she had collected her statement of result and certificate, indicating that she has fulfilled all the requirements and passed out of the school.

Dr Dipo wrote: "Nigerian Universities are at it again. Just spoke to someone who finished her MSc in 2016, collected Statement of Result in 2018 and Certificate in 2019. Now she’s applying for transcript to study abroad but has been told she failed some courses and need to come retake them."
