Online degrees are illegal – NUC.
The National Universities Commission has warned Nigerians against patronising online universities and other degree awarding institutions operating online saying that any certificate obtained from such institutions would not be recognised.
Speaking at a press conference at the headquarters of the commission on Thursday, the Director of Information and Public Relations, Ibrahim Usman Yakasai stressed that degrees obtained online were not accepted in the country.
He said, “Nigeria will not recognize online degrees. Online degrees are not accepted in Nigeria at the moment.”
All Nigerians, both at home and in diaspora should take note.
