UNPRINTED CERTIFICATE FOR YEARS; LEGAL ADVICE NEEDED.

Good day my fellow nairaland members.

I am a graduate of Education and Mathematics from Federal College of Education (Technical), Asaba, Delta State which is in affiliation with University of Benin, Benin City.
The institution started running degree programme in the 2011/2012 academic year and graduated the first set which is the 2013/2014 set in January 2015 due to the prolonged 2014 ASUU and COEASU strike in 2014.


It may surprise you to know that all graduates of the school from 2014 till date do not have Certificates for collection in UNIBEN. The only thing issued to us is NOTIFICATION FOR FINAL DEGREE EXAMINATION RESULT.


Recently, we visited UNIBEN to take our degree certificates and we were told that our certificates has not been printed even when our names were amongst those in convocation list.


We have on several occasions and means channeled our complaints to our school in Asaba but didn't get any tangible response on the way forward. We have been inconvenienced greatly by this delay.


We have also written to the VC of the University of Benin through a recently launched hotline and she told us that she has scheduled a meeting between UNIBEN and Federal College of Education (Technical), Asaba but she has since over two weeks of writing to her failed to give us feedback even after writing a reminder to her.


We have learnt from a very reliable source that the two schools agreed on a certain amount which Federal College of Education (Technical), Asaba will be remitting annually to UNIBEN when they signed the MOU that gave birth to this programme. However, Federal College of Education (Technical), Asaba has failed to remit the said amount since the beginning of the programme till date. This made UNIBEN to withhold the certificates of those graduating from Federal College of Education (Technical), Asaba.

It must be noted that we have paid all our fees to Federal College of Education (Technical), Asaba as charged without even complaining of the exorbitant cost when compared to what is obtainable in other federal schools but they have failed to fulfil their own part.
We are pained bitterly because we lose opportunities everyday, our parents now think that we never went to school.



On this note, we pray you to help us suggest the best legal way to approach this matter.
Although the cost of justice in the present Nigeria is expensive but we hope to sue the two schools to court.
Your assistance will be highly appreciated.
Thank you and God bless as I anticipate your useful assistance.
