I need to educate myself more on the explosions of all these private schools in Nigeria but safe to say that I won't be taking any CV seriously if it doesn't have formal education from universities that existed prior to 1980.

I'm sure I'm not the only one so consider that if you're applying for jobs based on attending this seemingly fly by night ran out of one parlor schools and you're not getting offers.

NUC should be more proactive - as a matter of urgency NUC embark on a massive sensitization using the various media channels especially new media (Facebook, Twitter etc) since most of the admission seeking public are youths. These are in addition to conventional media like TV, radio and newspaper adverts to capture parents.

They should also include a comprehensive list of 'approved/legal universities' both at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels in every year's JAMB, WAEC , NECO,NABTEB brochures. Furthermore, they should also make adequate enlightenment visits to Association of Principals of Nigeria; this way principals sound pass the information across to their SS 3 students who are most likely to seek admission into higher institutions.

Finally, parents should always ensure they know where their wards apply to for admission not just to check legality or not of the potential schools but also to be sure of the financial implications of such schools.

chumakk: The NUC or whatever should find out if the universities above are doing a good job and approved them but not closing them down. They are helping to reduce the amount of uneducated masses. What proof do you have that our so-called approved schools are better than the unapproved ones?

Am so sure you attend/attended MADONNA. How many times did you fail JAMB? Almost all MADONNA girls I know of are so arrogant and saucy. Is it because of your peanut tuition fee? The certificate is awarded in character and in learning; of which you have none.

One site that deserves more exposure that it is actually getting right now, is Netropolis NG.

Well, Aside from the the obvious alternatively modern content they have, they are different from the popular bloggers like naij and the host of them, but i've spent a few weeks really reading their content. These guys do research, they seem to be committed to issues that are not often talked about in mainstream media. The have also, a kick as section where they show you how to protect your privacy online and defend against these small time scammers.
So, has any one heard about this? www.netropolisng.com

emeralddayo: federal college of complementary and alternative medicine...see name..is there an alternative to medicine?
Is this an attempt at a joke? Of course there's a phrase called alternative medicine. It's used in Public Health circles. It means medicine that is not Western eg . Acupuncture and other types of traditional medicine. Get the drift?
