Until you have proof that she submitted forged and illegal documents, till then, you're ranting. Show us facts and not hearsay.


The fact that she submitted this or that kind of document is not the issue here and I even care less about all that at this moment, the issue here is you saying presenting fake degrees is lies and not forgery and also that she doesn't deserve to go to jail when in fact forgery is a criminal act in Nigeria and people go to jail for such acts.

This is about your own ignorance, flawed and mediocre intellect and usual olodo ways.

I know how you spin your rubbish, and want to get me into your useless back and forth, like I said, she LIED. Now the burden is on you to prove with documentation that she FORGED. Show us where she stated or acted, with intention to mislead that she had an MBA from the college. Btw, the Senate has released information that what was submitted before them said "she stayed back in the U.S." so till you're able to prove otherwise, I have no time for useless ranting with you.

Would you not agree that only a dullard will conclude that the statement “she immediately stayed back to study for her Masters Degree which she achieved in 1983” meant she stayed back at St. Paul’s College Lawrenceville?

From the context of the paragraph, the statement “she immediately stayed back to study for her Masters Degree which she achieved in 1983” meant she stay back in USA to pursue her masters degree instead of returning to Nigeria.



Dedemoron, don't worry, we go soon find out where she stayed back at and where her Masters degree came from and the fact that she's getting rid of any online references means we are getting there.

SR, PT and other diligent actors are hard at work trying to unravel this crooked fiasco..It's just a matter of time grasshopper...

Some of us are willing to give Stella the benefit of the doubt, but I must confess that things are not looking very good. She was in the US for exactly 4 years and left with a master's degree. This remarkable achievement means that she completed her studies in record time. My question is, why did she not highlight such a significant achievement in her CV

You are fast becoming a legend for your uncanny ability to deliver two-footed tackles around these parts. grin
The doubt conveyed in the emboldened portion of your post betrays just the kind of thinking we need in our law enforcement agencies.

When resources do not factor as impediments, I have personally seen brilliant kids complete programs from schools of physical sciences and engineering in a record time.

Only loudmouthed extroverts tend to make noise over such a significant achievement and create a special corner in their curriculum vitae. Why have you not inquired how she landed lucrative job at NNPC? Those who worked with her acknowledged the fact that she is not some slush academically.

awodman:

Looking curiously at the bolded,we can deduce Stella was emphatic that Sнε had her Undergraduate studies in St Paul's College but didn't state exactly where Sнε had her Master's degree. Sнε simply stated that Sнε stayed back after her Bachelor's degree so as to get a Master's...Staying back could be interpreted to mean alot of things depending on the school of thought you belong to...it could mean staying back in the USA or staying back at St Pauls College....Until it be proved without reasonable doubt that she "stayed back in St Paul's College",let this vilification stop...

Meanwhile,whenever it has been proved conclusively that Stella lied about going to St Paul's College for her Masters... Sнε should be dealt with Mercilessly..
.

Q. Where did she complete her first degree ?
Your ans. St. Paul’s College Lawrenceville !

Q. In the following passage, what does the statement "so she immediately stayed back" relate to ?
Your ans. it could mean staying back in the USA or staying back at St Pauls College .

Now, it's my turn. And, i believe i speak for like minds !

First, i will like to clarify that U.S.A is not an educational institution it is a country . Awodman take note ! grin

Since you "awodman" claim she (stella's) staying back could mean anything. We (speaking for like minds) accept this as a fact.

That Stella Oduah, successfully completed her Master degree in the United States. Though, there are no clear documents stating which "University" she got her Master's degree from.

Nevertheless, it can't be from St.Paul cos they don't award such degree's in that (St.Paul) institution. But Stella Master's degree is from an accredited American Institution, not a Nigerian, British, Ghanaian or South African Institution.

Hence, Stella must present a masters degree from 1983, to Nigeria citizen's and this degree must be an American Degree (Masters).

rockbase360: Stella Oduah, Nigeria’s Minister of Aviation who is embroiled in a scandal of towering proportions in the ministry, faces new integrity questions as her Masters’ degree has been challenged by the United States school which supposedly awarded it.

Her resume, which she presented to the Senate as a ministerial nominee in 2011, indicated she obtained a Master's degree in Business Administration (MBA) from St. Paul’s College Lawrenceville, Virginia, United States.

But SaharaReporters has learned from the President of the college that it has never in its 125-year history had a graduate school or graduate program.

The Provost Vice President of Academic Affairs, and the Vice President of Institutional Development said in response to our inquiries, “We don’t offer any graduate programs here.”

Similarly, the school’s website states: “Saint Paul's College is accredited by the Commission of Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to award baccalaureate [bachelor’s] degrees.” There is no mention of graduate degrees.

The Minister’s documentation shows she received an undergraduate degree in accounting from the college in 1982, but Dr. Claud Flythe, St. Paul’s current president, could neither confirm nor deny this during a phone conversation with SaharaReporters. Further verification with the Office of Alumni Affairs is also currently impossible, the school said, because the college has been closed since June 2013 to loss of its accreditation.

“[Oduah] realized very early in life the indispensability of a sound education in her growth plans in life and therefore pursued her education with all diligence and sense of purpose,” her documents claimed, adding that a determination “to have the best education at the highest level” prompted her stay at the Virginia college in 1983 for the MBA programme.

As her public relations machinery marched on, in December 2012 The Sun newspaper published an article headlined “Stella Oduah: An Amazon of transformation,” which lauded her “MBA from St Paul’s College, Lawrenceville Virginia USA.” The story also praised her for being an official who brought her “rich educational background to bear on the aviation sector by automating revenue centers in all the agencies and parastatals to boost their revenue profile and enhance transparency and accountability in the system.”

In October, SaharaReporters broke the story that Mrs. Oduah, a former campaign manager for President Goodluck Jonathan, purchased two bulletproof BMW cars worth $ 1.6 Million (N255m) through the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority, for her own use.

Following an investigation, the House of Representatives Committee on Aviation dismissed the Minister’s pleas of innocence and all her rebuttals during her testimony. The committee’s report, which was subsequently adopted by the House, declared that no budgetary appropriation had been made for the purchase of the cars, and that the NCAA proposal for their purchase was rejected.

President Jonathan also set up a three-member administrative panel to investigate the matter, but he immediately travelled out of the country with Mrs. Oduah and Colonel Dasuki, the National Security Adviser who was to serve as a member of the panel. Not only did the panel submit its report much later than the two weeks it was given for the assignment, Mr. Jonathan has refused to release its report.

Mrs. Oduah’s new certificate questions are certain to feed into national concern about her credibility as an elected official, but also about Mr. Jonathan’s credibility, and about the nation’s security apparatus which verifies official documents offered to the Senate for official nominations.

If Mrs. Oduah deliberately deceived the Senate, it remains to be seen if the Upper House will be sufficiently motivated to take up the matter with the Executive.

Meanwhile, Nigeria’s aviation industry continues to face a massive challenge, with struggling airports and airlines, as well as financial and administrative pitfalls that hinder expansion and development.

http://saharareporters.com/news-page/us-college-says-it-did-not-award-mba-stella-oduah-it-has-no-masters-programme


Madam Stella has now doctored her wiki page. See below. Why can't she state the school she attended in the USA? In addition, she is no more married to Engr. Chris Ogiemwonyi. They have not seen each other in years.

Princess Stella Oduah-Ogiemwonyi (born January 5, 1962) is the Nigerian Minister of Aviation. She was confirmed to the post and sworn in on July 2, 2011.[1][2] and was deployed to the Ministry of Aviation on July 4, 2011.[3][4][5] She was also active in the political campaign of Goodluck Jonathan, the current President of Nigeria; where she served as his campaign's Director of Administration and Finance.[6]

Background

Princess Stella Oduah-Ogiemwonyi

Princess Stella Oduah-Ogiemwonyi was born to Igwe D.O. Oduah of Akili-Ozizor, Ogbaru L.G.A. in Anambra State on January 5, 1962.[7] Oduah-Ogiemwonyi received her Bachelors and Masters Degree (in Accounting and Business Administration respectively) in the United States. Upon her return to Nigeria in 1983, she joined the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation.[8]

In 1992, she left the NNPC to establish the Sea Petroleum & Gas Company Limited (SPG), an independent marketer of petroleum products in Nigeria.[9]

She is married to the former Minister for Works, Engr. Chris Ogiemwonyi[8] and has children.

The Lagos state police command has charged 23 students of the Ikeja Police College with falsification of educational qualifications at an Ikeja Magistrates’ Court.

Police prosecutor, Barth Nwaokeye, said the accused students falsely declared that they held National Certificate in Education (NCE), National Diploma (ND) from various institutions in the country.

He argued that the “rogue students” tricked the collage’s recruiting officers with their false qualifications and gained admission into the collage.
