Niraland family Please I really need your help on this matter. So sorry my writeup may be long.

I graduated from University of Benin in December 2019. Due to lack of funds, I couldn't go for my clearance until about a year plus later.

The time I went, everything was going on well until I got to the student affairs department where it was discovered that my name was wrongly spelt.

The mistake was from my department and j was referred back to my department to get it corrected before I could go on with the clearance.

I went back to my department, met my HOD and explained everything to her. She asked me to write a letter and give to her secretary. I did and asked the secretary how long it could take and he said maybe 2 months.

Two months later, I went back to the school to check and the error was not corrected. I went back to my department and the HOD again said I should write a letter. I did and months again, nothing changed.

The cycle continued until I ran out of funds to keep going. Each trip cost me over 50k then. I sent my friends who were still in the school then to help me remind her. They did, even submitted another letters, still nothing changed.

Last year around July, I heard that the department had got a new HOD, I gathered some money to go and see the man and see if he can help me. When I got to his office, I explained everything to him and he said that I'm not serious. That he has been HOD for some months and no such complain has ever come to his table. I then told him that I have sent letters countless times to the former HOD, though I haven't sent any letter nor came to the department since he assumed office due to financial constraints.

I told him that I asked my friend who reside In Benin to help me get his number so I could reach out to him. Then he flared up, insulting me and my generation. That I have no professor in my linage and why should I be asking for his number. He said we are not mates and all. After the whole insults. He still asked me to write a letter and submit with his secretary, with a copy of my "school screening certificate" and "eligibility slip" to verify my real name. I did, and it's almost a year now. Yesterday I called the clearance officer at the student affairs department and she said "Iyede they never do am"
And don't know what else to do, it's over 5 years now since I graduated. And the fault is not from me. All my documents has my correct name, even the screening certificate and eligibility school issued by the school all has my correct name. My online student's kofa page, has my correct name. So the error is from them.

And in a country like this, after 5 years, no any work experience, no certificate to even apply for any job.
I wish to take them on legally but can I get justice without connection?
NL big fam please if there's any lawyer here that can help or you have a connection to who can, please do.

They need you to bribe them, gather small 50k and see wonders happen. I am a graduate of Uniben too. Ordinary transcript didn't take 3 weeks for me to get and waybilled despite that i didn't go near the school since I graduated in 2015. Gather some funds, get contact of someone working in the ict at Akindeko Hall (auditorium) na you go see say you dey waste time since
The solution right.
Also, promise extra money should the person complete the process. Else they may still collect your money and do nothing.

Abeg boss how did you get it so quick I need help.
When I gained admission into that school I had issues with my local government as a different LGA was on my kofa which delayed my 100 level clearance. Omo for more than 2 months I was unable to be cleared as they kept tossing me up and down.
Bro I got fed up and went to the ICT section at Akin Deko and instantly right there it was fixed.

I think you should contact Mrs usibaifo and explain everything to her though she was my course advisor then but I don't know if she's still the one she may help you to quicken it.

Computer science is the worst department in uniben. I saw hell in that department but I later won and stopped seeing the structure.

Follow up with the HOD secretary to know if she actually acted on the letters you wrote, if she has worked on those letters and school didn’t effect it then probably the sch ICT department is at fault. Try to know the main people in charge of your situation and settle them with small money. They will effect it asap
I learnt the letter is still in the department

I’m sorry to hear that nigeria happened to in such a cruel way.

If you are in the state capital, try to locate the office of the public complaint commission and file your complaint with them. Your case would be attended to in days and if you are not in the state capital, you can use the online service of the organization or any area office close to you.

Make sure you accompany your complaint with relevant document and resource.

If I get to work tomorrow, I’d get the phone number you can call and as well other resource you may need.

I pray you get this resolved as soon as possible.

Good luck
Will be glad to have it
