Why Do People Pay Money To Buy Professional Courses In Nigerias' Universities? by UNNGRADUATEEE: 1:01pm On May 05
I have been wondering about this since on how people pay exorbitant money to buy admission in Federal universities for mostly medicine, pharmacy or other professional courses? I think this system is already making the qualified students not to get that admission which is subsequently sold away. I use myself as a case study, my jamb score was 300 when I wrote jamb then and I was looking forward to smash Unizik post utme then for medicine and surgery. Then Egboka from Umuchu Anambra state was the Vice-chancellor. I know I was intelligent to pass the post utme to get medicine only for me to see 220 as my post utme results. I was devasted and suicidal then because it seems like my life was over, I cried all night because I knew what I wrote in the post utme. A lecturer that knows my family then promised to help me get the medicine and he later said I have to pay 250k since they are ogas at the top that he has to settle. 250k as of 2013 was a hell big money that could buy Toyota Camry 2002 model then. I didn't have such money so I accepted my fate and rescinded my urge for medical pursuit. That same year, I know of a girl that got pharmacy because her father was a professor in the university and she confided in me by saying that others pay same 250k that I told earlier for any professional course. I think they intentionally fail people in post utme to create space for those that were willing to buy admission. This made me to give up in school for years before going to UNN and applying for chemistry which I got on merit list.

Last year, a friend of mine told me that he paid #700k for his brother to get pharmacy at UNN. Same last year, I know of a girl that paid #700k at Imo state university to study nursing. Just few minutes ago before I wrote this, I overheard a phone conversation of a likely rich man in a bar I am in currently trying to drink a bottle to calm my thinking. In the phone conversation, the man was actually talking to a professor because he kept shouting professor due to network issues. I was around the man's table so I eavesdropped on the phone call and he was told to pay 1 million naira for his child admission into Unizik to study medicine. In the call, the man keep reiterating with a brazen voice that his son scored so low in jamb with a 202 jamb score but I guessed he was assured that the jamb score won't be a problem and that prompted him to say "No problem Prof, I would send it to your account before nightfall". If the man is in Nairaland and read this post then he would know am the one because am the closest person to his table. Well, am leaving the bar few minutes from now.


How are we save in a country where people use money to buy medicine, pharmacy and nursing hereby getting the slot exhausted and depriving the intelligent ones from studying it?

I dedicate this FTC to all of us that are brilliant but due to the corruption in the educational system, our educational admission slot was sold to highest bidders that have money because we weren't financially buoyant to fight for our right. May God understand and bless abundantly in a feracious manner and pay this swindlers back in a ferocious way.

Most doctors and nurses aren't even qualified, that's why people keep dying. Most pharmacist too don't even know indepth drug anyalysis.

It's not today that this has been happening in Nigeria. Truly professional courses are expensive even abroad but the brilliant students study by scholarship or working in the campus or by educational loan not by depriving merit for highest bidder. Personal experience after one doctor performed surgery. We saw no difference as if no treatment, we back only for him to claim he made a mistake. A doctor always fixed to his laptop when patients are with him. Japa destroy our health sector

Hmmm....

This is very true.

Nigeria is messed up.

After my Bachelor's degree, I applied to a College of Nursing Sciences in a particular state in Nigeria. I passed the difficult entrance exam. I also passed the interview. Got admitted with my name being number one on the merit list. I was happy.

It was during the admission process that I discovered parents buy admission slots. Nursing was hot cake. Those that didn't have enough money in thousands could only buy admission into Midwifery.

Na so I just dey look them.

Something I got with easy by the help of God.

In the Nursing school, I even met a senior who could not speak English atall. If u want to talk to him, someone has to interpret your English for him in his language before he can respond.

It's so sad.

Am sure, admission slot was bought for that one becos how on earth did he pass English in the Entrance Exam?
How was he able to communicate with the interviewers during the Nursing Interview process?
How was he even able to pass the interview?

Mehn....this story long.

Nigeria is messed up.

At the end, I still left the Nursing school by myself because everything in that school was just total rubbish.

Honestly the painful thing about this is that people keep dying because of negligence of the medical professions because most of them aren't qualified because of this admission slot buying.

MOD don't want to push this informative ideas to the front page why? But if it's BB naija frivolous talk then they would push it with immediate alacrity.
