These people shouldn't rubbish the image of our universities. That's one of the few institutions the world still has regards for. At least we don't have to do any PGD before studying master's degree and MBA outside Nigeria. Don't wash your dirty linens in public.

This should rectified immediately. University departments should not work in isolation , but in tandem.

We all have our collective roles to play if we want things to get better in this country.

Obi is the Vice Chancellor of University of Calabar but Iniobong can't become Vice Chancellor in Owerri lol

Yorubas in Lagos are taking the right step in curbing these inconsistencies.

This is good.
Nigeria top university hierarchy should learn, from admission scandal to asking students money for clearance.
Thanks VC

Nothing will happen to them..
Because they know it is Nigeria
Only noises no punishment
The poor man children are the one
Suffering for what they know nothing about

Old thing.

As far back as 17 years ago, when I was in school, I had a room mate who spent 6 solid years in Unijos studying Pharmacy. At the end of the program, they were told their accreditation was withdrawn and so, they couldn't graduate.

In reality, Unijos never had the accreditation. They admitted students in the hope that Unijos would get full accreditation before the students conclude their studies.

After wasting his years, he had to come back down south to restart his University education in the Biological sciences.

But why all denials and counter denials on medical issues when Nigeria is complaining of shortage of medical manpower and medical personnel brain drains.
Train these students however you want to and make them available for Nigerians. Which is 10 as quota for a University of Calabar for Dentistry and Dental surgery? We're not yet serious in Nigeria
Re: UNICAL VC, Florence Obi Calls Out Dean And Provost Over Admission Scandal by Edet08(m): 4:27pm On Jul 17, 2025
This is wrong. She's from Northern Cross River (Atam) and not Igbo. Since inception, no non-Cross Rivieran has ever been elected as a VC, but there's been lots of DVCs from Igbo, Yoruba, etc

All these grammar no cut am!!!


What's the way forward for the 120 students that have invested their resources into Dentistry and are having just few months to become Doctorshuh

This is the main question ..

Saying you will move them to another program is UNACCEPTABLE!

Either you go through the hard way, meet the Minister of Education...turn it to National Emergency and let the Minister of Education seek Presidential waiver from the Council for these children to finish their study.

We need Doctors.

If we feel the infrastructure they have been trained with other the years is inadequate...subject then to additional makeshift trainings...maybe 6months ...instead of just cancelling their efforts!

Madam VC...do something extraordinary please!

Everything you people show tribalism even in education, haabaa.
Firstly CrossRiver State bears Obi , former governor Liel Imoke is from that part.
Secondly, your narratives are false, there are many vice chancellor of non indigenes everywhere in Nigeria even South east universities. It's not rule, the most qualified takes. It is always advertised.
Re: UNICAL VC, Florence Obi Calls Out Dean And Provost Over Admission Scandal by CodeTemplarr:
Dentist are hot cake in the west. Instead of fighting over where admission goalposts should be, let them encourage and train the dentists so they can end up as forex earners for africa. Is like Nigeria is deeply cursed with something.

Get some rest whoever you are with tribal hatred in your dark mind. The VC is from Cross River State

Look at how they are frustrating the lives of these students. What kind of nonsense is this? She should better know what to do with these students. It is just not right. So it is curse to be a Nigerian?

Bigotry and hate clouds reasoning, a simple background check would've spared you from this embarrassing post, but you were quick to hit your keyboard, bros try and be a better human being and see humanity before tribe

The VC should be held responsible and the registar
Illegally admitted students shouldn't have matric number and shouldn't be able to create account on the school website.
Re: UNICAL VC, Florence Obi Calls Out Dean And Provost Over Admission Scandal by Agugbadin:
128 students as against 10,that is a super fraud ,there is no known school of dentistry that admits that number arround the globe. To make matters worse some of them are asking to be transferred to medicine and surgery. That is dangerous for Nigeria would be patients because their training is inadequateo.Unical us always in the news for the wrong reason,.
