Some courses need this in Nigeria.... Wildlife technology (or something like that in futa)

Some Nigerian are easily intimidated and due to this, they seek admission by all means as if it guarantee a "happy ever after life".

Some of them are so desperate to the extent that they accept a course that even themselves are not proud of saying.

Lol. Nigeria needs this kind of suit, but it wont fly. If u read closely, she didn't win any suit. The University in their own conscience decided to defray her costs and compensate her. It's landmark! Can never happen in Nigeria.

A smart strategy by the university. Paying her off just solves many problems.

It will be a big shame if she wins, and also, it will be a deterrent for prospective student to study there, a precedence for other students to sue, and get their own piece of cake, and serves as an historical landmark case of how useless university degrees are useless

Smart move Anglia, smart move.

Nigerians will keep running to UK universities thinking that it will guarantee them job only to be disappointed after spending millions of Naira.
UK universities are somehow a scam to me. No benefit, once you are done, they ask you to leave yet thousands of Nigeria's wealthy will be falling over themselves to go and study for nothing, just to be abroad.
It is those that sell all their properties or use all their savings that I pity most. I respect the Chinese lady for this act of bravely.
The white man has found a way to con the black people grin grin cheesy The true education is not delivered in those UK schools..

Thats uk for you, overhyped degrees and at the end of the day you are sent back to your country. Even foremost universities are part of this scam, beautiful buildings but no substance.

Good for her. But wasnt there a prospectus that she should have digested before embarking on that course. If she did read it and claim it exaggerated the impact of the course shouldn't the fault be on her for not developing herself beyond the scope of the degree


The advertisement was about the opportunities one would have if the degree is attained period.... no further studies required. That was not the case.... false advertising.

Smart move Anglia, smart move.
She actually lost all her case and the court even ordered her to pay the Uni's legal costs. She was paid by an insurer and not the Uni.

If she had won the case in court, every grad in britain would be suing the universities they graduated from.
