Unical, Faculty Of Law Academic Fraud: Professor Demoted To Graduate Assistant, by jafardambatta: 8:41pm On Aug 19, 2019
There has been a twist in the Academic fraud saga surrounding the duo of Prof Worugji and Rev. Prof. Uhuka as the Academic Fraud Investigation Committee (AFIC) Unical has recommended the demotion of Rev. Prof. Uhuka from the rank of a Professor of Law to the rank of a Graduate Assistant with immediate effect while Prof. Worugji who has refused to submit the Original of his certificates including his Ph.D degree in Law certificate to the committee is going from one committee member to the other begging as usual to be salvaged from the shame.
Information has it that Prof. Worugji faced with the present onslaught by AFIC,has written to the University of Ibadan for correction of his Ph.D certificate which was obtained in May 2010. As at 2010 when Prof Worugji obtained his Ph.D certificate which reads"Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts", he was informed by the then Registrar of the University of Calabar that he was not eligible for promotion to the rank of a Professor of Law because he had not "obtained a Ph.D in Law degree". It remains a mystery how he wangled his way and got his promotion to the rank of an Associate Professor without a Ph.D degree in 2006.
Nine years after being told that he had not obtained a Ph.D degree in Law, Prof. Worugji has started the process of having his Ph.D certificate corrected to read his area of specialization "African Law". It is worthy to note that African Law is not a program of study, but an area of Specialization in the academic program of Core African studies, while A postgraduate programme in law (LLM, MPhil & Ph.D) under the NUC minimum standard for PG programme in Nigerian universities is required to be domiciled in the Faculty of Law.. Prof. Worugji clearly holds a Ph.D from the institute of African studies in the Faculty of Art, University of Ibadan as African Law is just one of the areas of specialization


Copy of Prof. Worugji's Ph.D certificate



The institute of African Studies runs a programme in CORE AFRICAN STUDIES as provided for in the institute brochure with various areas of specialization. Which include:
1. African History
2. African Law
3. African Music
4. African Visual Arts
5. Anthropology
6. Cultural and Media studies
7. Diaspora and Transnational Studies
8. Gender studies
9. Traditional African Medicine and belief system
10. Transformation studies in Africa.

One begins to wonder if a person who obtained a Ph.D in African Studies and specialized in Tradition African Medicine and belief systems from the Institute of African studies, University of Ibadan can become a professor of medicine in the university of Calabar ? The answer obviously is No. It is however even more fishy as the University if Ibadan where Prof Worugji obtained his PhD in African Studies also offers admission for post graduate studies in Law. Why Prof Worugj choose to do African Studies goes to show that Prof. Worugji lacks the basic requirements to do a postgraduate degree in law. According to our findings, Prof. Worugji was refused admission for similar reasons into the faculty of law in Obafemi Awolowo University. Ife and university of Ibadan.
Remember in our earlier report, we stated that Prof. Worugji claim of having obtained a B.A.(Hons) Law from the Manchester Metropolitan University - MMU was completely false as the Qualifying Law degrees awarded from the University in Question as published on their website https://www.mmu.ac.uk/study/undergraduate/course/ba-businessmanagement-with-law is as follows.
i. LL.B (Hons) - Law with a foundation year - Full time.
Ii. LL.B (Hons) - Full time, Sandwich
Iii. LL..B (Hons) - Part time
The Big question then is, where did Prof. Worugji get his own B.A.(Hons) in Law degree from when the University he claimed to have graduated from has no such Law degree.
It is worthy to note that the Manchester Metropolitan University - MMU offers none qualifying Law degree in Law course such as B.A (Hons) in Business Management with Law and B.Sc (Hons) in Forensic Psychology. However it is expressly stated that in the Manchester Metropolitan university brochure that this two courses are not Qualifying Law degrees, so therefore it is shocking how Prof. Worugji got admission to the Nigerian Law school without a qualifying Law degree.
Our independent investigation further revealed that Prof. Worugji's WAEC is not his own, but that of a relative, hence the reason for his numerous change of name. From the Curriculum vitea used by Prof. Worugji, he claims to have made grade 1 in WAEC, and one begins to wonder how a man wlo claims to have made Grade 1 in WAEC would leave the shores of Nigeria to study HND in Business Studies and not Law and without first obtaining OND. What further raised curiosity is how Prof. Worugji finished his HND programme in just ONE YEAR.
The University of Calabar has however issued a stringent warning to Prof. Worugji to cooperate with the committee or face severe disciplinary actions. This was contained in a letter signed by the Registrar, Mr. Moses Abang to Prof. Worugji.

On the demotion of Rev. Prof Uhuka to the rank of a graduate assistant, it has bee discovered;

1. That Rev. Prof. Uhuka has no first degree from the university of Abuja as he claimed, but from the British America University. This is questionable.

2. That Rev. Prof. Uhuka was not called to the Nigerian Bar or any other Bar around the globe.

3. That Rev. Prof. Uhuka holds a questionable Masters of Law (LL.M) degree as the LL.M degree was obtained barely 2 weeks after obtaining his first degree.

4. That Rev. Prof. Uhuka has no Ph.D degree but records show that he is a doctoral candidate. This is also questionable.

5. That Rev. Prof Uhuka has zero University teaching experience.

6. That Rev. Prof. Uhuka has no evidence of Publication amongst others hence the recommendation for his demotion from the rank of a Professor of Law to the rank of a Graduate Assistant.
7. Further from his CV he claimed he obtained a diploma in 1980 and WAEC in 1989. Please tell us which comes first.
Rev. Uhuka has however absconded as he is no where to be found in the University due to fear of he being handed over to the Police or ICPC for further investigation.

THE TRUTH ABOUT PROFESSOR WORUGJI AND THE FACULTY OF LAW, UNIVERSITY OF CALABAR...
As the Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka recently stated at an art gallery in commemoration of his 85th birthday saying "...so when you read things on social media, take it with a pinch of salt, decide whether it makes sense because the person who posted it might have a private agenda" he certainly cautioned Nigerians not to believe everything they read on social media, he was not far from the truth and definitely referring to a post like this: UNICAL, FACULTY OF LAW ACADEMIC FRAUD: PROFESSOR DEMOTED TO GRADUATE ASSISTANT, THE OTHER STILL UNDER INVESTIGATION. If you have not read this then you really need to check it out first before reading my post below. But don't be angry, The writers themselves know the truth. It is part of the war between correct practices and abuse of office practitioners and the puritans in the Faculty of Law, University of Calabar being brought to the public through the social media. The corrupt practices practitioners must use crude means, instruments and falsehood in the war since they have no weapons. I can only do my part by letting the public know that truth as anonymous petitions have no place in the world of truth!


Prof. I. N. E. Worugji's brief Bio:


He attended the Baptist High School, Port Harcourt where he had the WASC with a grade 1 in 1975. Went to England in 1977 on the State Scholarship for HND in Business Studies at the Stockport College and completed the programme in 1979. He immediately proceeded the the Manchester Polytechnic for the degree course in Law. The Law degree over there is a three year course(1979-1982). He graduated with a second class honours( 2:2) BA(Hons) Law. The Polytechnic later became the Manchester Metropolitan University.Thereafter He went to the University of Essex for the Master of Laws (LLM). This was 1982/1983 academic session. He completed the programme on the record time in 1983 and the degree was conferred on him during the 1984 Convocation Ceremony as the University practice. He was called to the Nigerian Bar in 1984 after completion of the one year course of study in the Nigerian Law School. It is a fact that he changed his name. His name was formerly UCHENDU Israel Nsitelem Emenike and now WORUGJI Israel Nsitelem Eme. The change of name is legitimate and lawful but the detractors are not comfortable with his choice of change of name. He engaged briefly in legal practice in Port Harcourt before leaving to be a Law Teacher at the University of Calabar in December 1988. In 2010 he rose through to the ranks and became a Professor of Law after obtaining Doctor of Philosophy( PhD) degree in African Law from the University of Ibadan in 2010. All his promotions passed through the University due process as his publications were assessed following the University procedure and found relevant to his scholarship. He was a Head of Department for 4 years and acting Dean of Law for 3 years covering 7 years in active management of the Faculty of Law. He was also a member of the University Governing Council for 4 years.The University never at any stage doubted his qualifications and scholarship. Current students and Alumnus that passed through the faculty of law, Unical will tell you he is diligent, a scholar, very straightforward and a man of integrity as He will never descend so low at any stage try to influence or interfere with the due process. I certainly don't know what his detractors are afraid of, to be busy writing anonymous and frivolous petitions to the University authority on daily basis and publishing senseless things on the social media about him. It is quite a pity that this level of senseless and ignorance can be exhibited by persons who claim to be in academics (Prof. Ndifon and his cohorts).
As you can see Prof. Worugji's academic qualifications are very clear; BA(Hons) Law, Master of Laws( LLM), BL for the Nigerian Bar, Doctor of Philosophy PhD in African Law. But the detractors are not telling the world that the institutions where he obtained his certificates have disclaimed him in any way nor are his qualifications not relevant to his scholarship as a Law Professor. All they say is Worugji is very powerful and influential.
IF YOU DOUBT THE ABOVE BIO THEN I URGE YOU TO DIRECTLY CONTACT Mr. Essien Essien Udom, SAN or Mr. Uko Essien Udom, SAN they are Principal Partners of UDOM AND UDOM (LEGAL PRACTITIONERS) a law Firm with offices Uyo and Lagos state. You can also view their QUALIFICATIONS by clicking HERE
As you can see these are very respectable Senior Advocates of Nigeria. They were classmates with Professor Worugji at the Manchester Polytechnic (1979-1982) where they all obtained a BA(Hons) Law. Today they are SAN. So let the ignorant continue in their fooleries.
Thanks for taking your time to read through, and I will end by adding that "a stupid person is someone who knowing the truth, seeing the truth, still believing the lies..." ― A wise man.
