NUC spitting their meaningless dummy as if they are employing anybody nowadays.

You haven't given jobs to the hordes of regular students who are roaming the streets uemployed and you are here crying over online education. Talk about misplaced priorities.

And since when did employers start sending certificates of their workers to NUC for approval?

The way I see it is NUC should rather focus on sanitizing the nation's institutions of higher learning and ridding it of all unwholesome practises, rather than dissipating energy on matters it has little or no grasp about.

Confused government.... nna na wa o... wetin person no go hear sef... how can u ban online degrees?? well....

Government can't legislate about who to employ as it has no jobs to give. It is the employer's choice to employ whoever. Some of the foreigners that come here to work as consultants do not have university degrees

How will your citizens not go abroad and leave their cursed country and their leaders....who keep smoking w**d before they come to work,after smoking they get up and make any law they want because they know their children are not in Nigeria.

We the youths need to wake up and stop our leaders from throwing whatever the like in our faces,the last time i checked we are in the 21st century,

One day NCC will wake up and say they have Banned the use of internet services in Nigeria.......
Our country is so so failed.

Nice movement by NUC in standardizing our education and improving in term of employment status..

How did the name of a dictator wife end up in the name of an institution. Is it that Nigeria or northern nigeria has run out of worthy leaders. Who's next....Shekau?

The university is not located in Nigeria; it is in Niger Republic which has been said to be where her husband really comes from anyway.

In dis days when ICT has helped turn d world into a "global village," dis nonsense academic body now denounces online education. Rather than promoting it and also making it berra

NUC is talking rubbishh at its height. Instead of concentrating on given credit to the education system they are busy bad mouthing other ones, sincerlt speaking given the choice i ll rather do an online programm with Manchester School of Biz rather dan doin full time with any nig uni.

IF THEY CONCENTRATE ON MAKING EDUCATION SYSTEM CREDIBLE IN NIG FOREIGNERS LL COME TO NIG ND AV THIER CERT.

These government officials will just wake up and take decisions without thinking through. Banning online degree is ignorance taken too far. Well, na to finish my course move out of this God forsaken Country.

Rubbbissh....

People discrediting online degrees esp genuine ones don't know what they r saying.... They are very good, very educating and the best for a distant learning.

Whats the point? Why not ban distance learning programs in Nigeria.

They should just focus on making better our education system in Nigeria so that we can at least make 999th position.

The rationale behind this nonsense is the fact that most people would prefer these programs than going to real lectures in Nigerian universities to face wicked, sadist lecturers and a harsh condition.

I have 5 certifications online.... wonderful skills acquired. I have never been this happy with learning. Oyibo sabi!!!!!

Make we move forward o Nigeria!!!!! Haba!

Nigeria- A very backward country! Banning online degree in 2015? Giant of Africa indeed. What happens to regulation?

The archaic leaders are dragging this country backwards. The law is silent on online degrees so it can not be illegal. Everyone has the right to seek any form of education, didactic or online. We need to clear off these 12th century leaders, it's time for the new generation. I dare NUC to declare the National Open university illegal.

Peybuttons come & see ohh

Well,I think outright ban of online degrees is not too good by nuc. What they could have done is to regulate.i understand our youths nowadays are very eager to gain admission into conventional institutions and they don't want to stay at home for long writing jamb and waec or neco.they want to impress their peers,parents and society that they are now in high institutions without paying the price by studying very hard and been focus in trying to achieve that aim. Well,it's cool gaining admission to school so early but you have to pay the price for it.some of our parent procure admission for their children via online degree and foreign institutions because their wards are too lazy to study and pass this qualifying exams. Although,our universities mostly federal ones still have the quality professors and Dr's but the fraud in our educational system is to bad.some lecturers will want you to pay huge amount of money to have good grades in their exams or until you cram and repeat all their notes in class during exam or female students sleeping with them for the same purpose or paying huge amount of money to get a good classes of honors to graduate with.also,our educational curriculum are too outdated.our lecturers uses old syllabus,crude methods in teaching and learning. Not all online degrees or foreign university are substandard. Even most of the prestigious institutions like havard,MIT,yale,Sandford etc runs online courses with certificates of learning and accomplishment and credit to gain admission for full time course. Most of this online certificate courses(mooc)from edx.org,cousera.org,alison.com,saylor.org etc are more qualitative and with modern research,methodology and of recent technology/technics than our so called courses we learn in university where researches and update are never made to improve the syllabus with modern day technics. I have completed several courses from this online learning. Platform via edx,cousera,Alison and I must confess they are far better than what we learned from our professors in conventional institutions. Their courses is tailored to address and tackle recent events,probe past events and history and look at the future events. It's has really helped me a lot to enhance and improve my skill gap and expose me to latest technology and event happenings. What would nuc say concerning NOUN?are they not running an online learning system too?they also have stated mooc courses just like the ones we have in the prestigious universities abroad. Nuc should regulate the system and collaborate with the reputable ones and let's have the online degree complementing the physical institutions. God bless Nigeria. Amen!!!
