Nigeria HND graduates can now receive B.Sc in UK in 1
year
The chairman of Siegener Sabithos Nigeria, Mr Tunde
Anifowose-Kelani, on Monday received an approval to
run a Bachelor’s degree programme for international
students from the United Kingdom (UK) University.
Speaking with Campusbeats from UK, Kelani described
the development as a breakthrough for the youth and
students in the country.
He said that Higher National Diploma graduates in
Nigeria can now study for a year without leaving their
employments, businesses, families among others.
He said he had been making frantic efforts to get the
approval since 2009, just as he expressed joy that the
move had yielded a positive result through the
approval of the programme.
“Our dream has come true at Siegener Sabithos
Nigeria to close the gap between HND and bachelor’s
degree graduates once and for all through intellectual
engineering, and we thank God for the manifestation
today.
“It is God ! Indeed, the world is a global village and
this is a great opportunity to fill the gap of HND and
bachelor’s degree dichotomy in Nigeria. The bachelor’s
degree certificate from The UK University is acceptable
in over 130 countries of the World!
“We have signed the contractual international
agreement with WestFace Consortium UK for all HND
graduates in Nigeria to undergo a one-year
international bachelor’s degree programme and HND
graduates who enrol on the degree programme will
have the opportunity to attend their graduation
ceremony in London accordingly,” Anifowose-Kelani
said.

I truly don't understand the message well enough. Does he imply they can receive their lectures in Nigeria as in a Distance Learning Program?
