No, you got my point wrong. I've made inquiry about his allegations and most of them are lies. Let me make something clear here...he who lives in a glass house shouldn't throw stones, if the OP is a student of the said university or he has their certificate, trying to get one or probably have his loved ones there, should be mindful of his allegations and campaign in order not to reap something different at a long run probably when he's seeking for a job with the school cert he's painting evil, employers are watching/listening to all ds pops.information travels faster now thanks to social networking. cos this is exactly what is making rave in my office right now cos everybody is being fed with wrong reasons about poor education system coming from d school. If the OP doesn't know how to write a well tailored petition to the right bodies (NUC or Ministry of education) concerning his said reasons, then again he should communicate better with his sponsors (parents) to help him out and not causing issues for the gradaute that have their certificates or the aspiring ones. Enough of ds silly campaign. I can't find myself saying poo about my school cos I made the choice and I've got to take responsibilities. Thank you
OK na, because employers are watching and listening therefore the school should not be called out when they have been defaulting for years... Atleast you admitted that some of the things he wrote up there were true. I don't know how you conducted your enquiries, but If you had interrogated the school authorities did you expect them to say anything bad about the school? and even hear such from the students for fear of being expelled... And I don't know what you mean by he who live in glass house should not throw stones on this particular topic.
And did you just say he should communicate better with his parents to help him out. really?.. We all know how our country works. How are they to help if not to end up being frustrated to spend more than they bargained for or did you skip some of honest complaints of some posters here on how much they ended up wasting in that school. Please...

MADONNA UNIVERSITY AS A PONZI SCHEME IN NIGERIA

This is broken silence from one of the students who has been frustrated in in the University.

Madonna University is one of the most popular private universities in Nigeria, founded by VERY REV. FR. EMMANUEL MATHEW PAUL EDEH CSSP. OFR

It has about Three Campuses which include, Elele campus, Okija Campus and Akpugo Campus

Madonna University is a university with a difference; don’t doubt it is because what happens inside here cannot happen in any other university in Nigeria,

Inside here Human rights are highly prohibited …

The school doesn’t care about student’s feelings or their good interest rather they bring up policies against the interest and joy of Students,

Students opinion are not being looked into or settled rather it gives us suspension if the not expulsion and the school panel is for justice rather where they decide what will happen to you

In the year 2016 after the killing and bombing of properties in the North East.

The Father Founder decided to offer a free Education to the students who are being affected which the students very happy , without knowing he was using for International business and Awards.

During this Event of fake free Education he invited some foreign agencies Like UNICEF, A former prime minister of Ukraine and a former who gave the support of 80 million Naira to the so Called father Edehs Charity organization, After which he now restricted the free Education to only final years Students who were only 12 in number, and paid only their tuition fees which was #30,000 out of about #450.000 they pay paid as school fees and he pockets the 80million naira which was donated for support.

Some times when foreigners visits our school, he introduces us as less privileged people that is under his sponsorship.

Currently Medicine students are paying 1.5million Naira, Pharmacy 980 thousand Naira, law 1.2 million with other departments paying more than 500 thousand Naira, during an international convention last year he said the school fees is to small to run the school .

In 2016 when students where transferring from The school to other universities due to Maltreatment in the school, they increased the transcripts fee from #40.000 to #500.000 which made many students drop out because they cannot afford the school fees again and they cannot afford the transcript fee.

Presently now Madonna is providing the Highest spillover students in the country, 40% to 45% spilled because of either philosophy, theology, German or French and sometimes the tell u your script is missing or they will tag it Excess credit Load. In some many cases lecturers will give u CA but at the End of the day Exams and record will say u don’t have CA , Sometimes they do this just for you to spill and pay fees again.

In my Class Medical Laboratory Science 2013/2016 set, we are about 300 in the class but when NUC the presented only 50 students and they warned the remaining students not to come to class.

Security treats us like we are armed robbers or less privileged and if you retaliate you will tagged a cultist and u will be expelled that is what happen

In Akpugo 2015 when some students were brutally beaten and accused to be

Cultist

Even our Registrar and some of our Good and intelligent lecturers has left the school because of barbarity, brutality, savagery, wickedness, cruelty, abomination, enormity, outrage, monstrosity, obscenity, iniquity, transgression, injustice, abuse in the institution

please I call on NUC and other Education regulating bodies to investigate on this matter, we are really suffering here, nobody wants to talk because of expulsion please come for a secrete investigation , thank you

PLEASE TAKE YOUR TIME AND READ THIS STORY, THE OP IS TELLING THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH. THANK YOU

Before i start my story, i'll advise any jambite or any parent reading this not to apply to Madonna university and if you're already a student and it's not too late to leave please leave and find a better University to attend. if you can't afford to leave then make sure you keep track of all your results especially if you are a transfer student from another department.

I got admitted to madonna university in october 2011 to the faculty of engineering Elele campus, it should be noted that madonna has three campuses, Elele(Rivers state) for Sciences, Akpugo (Enugu state) for Engineering and Okija (Anambra) for Arts. while i was in my 100 level i started hearing rumours(in Madonna every rumour is 95% true) that my department in Engineering was not accredited by NUC, due to that discovery i decided to transfer and change to another department. i paid the fee of N 10,000 and transferred to computer science department in 200 level, i was told to write a leter to the school's Exams and records to transfer my old result and details to my new department which i did

Fast forward to my final year....when the list came out for those that would do final-clearance(those going for youth service), i was not too surprised when i did not see my name because, transfer students in my department have always had this issue of our 100 level results not being transferred even thought we've been writing letters to the university's exam and records to transfer our results. personally i know i've written this letter more than five times throughout my time in Madonna University, so i quickly rushed down to school to find out why my name was not on the list, i was told it's an issue with my result. so i went to Exams and records and i submitted my name to the security man who acts as the intermediary between students and the offce and i was shocked when he returned about 2 hours later with the piece of paper i submitted to them with 'Next two weeks' boldly written in red. i asked him why, he said the lady incharge did not give him any reason. i quickly scribbled down my name and Registration number on another piece of paper and submitted it again, initially the security man was reluctant to collect the paper, i begged him and he finally agreed. This time i waited and waited but i got no response and before you know it they said they were closed for the day.

The next day i came back and submitted my name and reg number and i got another response saying i should come back the next week (all these responses come at least after 2 hours of waiting). i was very angry and i walked up to the window where i could talk to them, the security man tried to restrain me but before he got there i was already talking to the Brother/Seminarian that i saw there. i explained everything to him and he told me to give him my name and registration number again which i quickly did. he told me to wait that he will attend to me. an hour later when i saw that i was getting no response i went to meet him again and he kept on telling me to wait that they're working on my result, meanwhile when i looked into the office, he was browsing the preview of Liverpool vs Arsenal another staff was on nairaland, one was on facebook and the others were just chatting and laughing, i told him i was tired of waiting that he should tell me exactly what's going on, he finally told me

THAT ALL MY 100 LEVEL RESULTS ARE NOT IN ELELE THAT THEY'VE BEEN MOVED TO AKPUGO IN ENUGU STATE.....WTF!!!!!!

But i've been writing letters since 200 level for you guys to move my results for how many years and it has not been transferred. He was just smiling and he told me that i'm supposed to know that letters don't work in this office. i nearly ran mad, i was like how else do you want me to communicate with you guys if i don't use letters, the Exams and records office is locked down and restricted from students and lecturers. by this time it was around 4 o'clock and they closed for the day

To cut the story short i had to go to my former Faculty and request for old 100 level results before doing this i informed one of my lecturer who called the Reverend Father incharge of Exams and records and told him that both of us are coming with some of the results we found and he said ok (if i didn't do this, they would just dismiss the result as a fake one even if it is stamped and signed by the Hod of that), after i submitted the results i found (i did not find all of them especially GST courses which are not pasted by Exams and Records or released to the various departments), they wrote a list of 16 courses that they could not find (they even wrote some non-existent courses). i went back to them and told them to give me the names of the non-existent courses (they just wrote down the course code). i waited and waited throughout the day but got no answer or response. i started going round from one 100 level lecturer to another to retrieve some of my results (doing their job for them). i was told to write a letter to exams and records again to go and get the result from the respective lecturers i did that and submitted the letter but i got no response and when i tried to find out exactly what's going on the Seminarian there would just tell me that they are working on it that i should just be patient

This Saga went on till the list for the NYSC batch A corpers had been compiled and forwarded to NYSC, i had to go home because i had tried all possible avenues to resolve this problem all to no avail.

The Seminarian was even telling me to go to Akpugo campus and get the results myself, but the annoying thing is even when i get there they wouldn't give me the results i have to beg (which translates to bribe) a staff there to follow me down to Elele with the results, i've told them to contact the office there to scan the results and send it to them. but they said 'they don't work like that' (can you imagine that!!!!), even My lecturer that has been helping me out with this issue (God bless him) can't help me again because they might start accusing him that he has collected bribe from me that's why he is so interested in this case (that's what they do). My mum even called the Reverend Father incharge of Exams and records, he started shouting on her and telling her that i went to bring fake results for them and that he is sure i did not even write those exams in 100 level, i even went to meet the lady incharge of computer sciences results. she just behaved as if she was deaf and dumb and walked out on me.

Most of my mates going for this Batch A youth corps never saw the result of some Exams they wrote in 100 level, and they are some of my colleagues who didn't see the result of an Exam (wasn't released to the department or pasted), it didn't come out in their problem list (list of courses you failed or missing courses, the list is released in your final year) only to be told that they failed the course or their result can't be found after they've graduated. a year before i graduated one of my seniors from another department advised me to go to exams and records and request for my results, i tried that but they plainly told me that they don't have time to attend to my request, i kept on trying but i had to give up because i started missing classes because of the hours i spend waiting for them to respond.

I want the whole world to know what goes on in Madonna University, on the outside it looks like a good catholic school but it's a whole new world when you get inside, they intentionally make students have spill overs so they came come back and pay another new school fees again, even if it's a single GST course, if it's a second semester course you'll pay both first and second semester school fees which is 300k+ or 400k+ depending on your department just to write that single course

As i'm writing this, i don't even know the next action to take i'm just at home now in limbo waiting for them to go and retrieve my remaining results.
Take them to court. Shit like this happens everywhere but you have to know your rights. Get a good lawyer and Sue their asses, write all this in every social media website and ruin their reputation.

Re: Madonna University As A Ponzi Scheme In Nigeria by odaniel1(m): 6:00pm On Jun 08, 2017
Complain all you want, nothing will be done. Those in the 'corridors of power' have had thier palms 'greased' and no matter the accusations and pleas nothing will be forthcoming.
I remember students complained 4 years ago and even further back. Yet, Fr Edeh & his cohorts are still plundering our educational sector with thier high-handedness, lack of professionalism (countless number of unqualified academic and non-academic staff in all his schools-tertiary & secondary) barbarism and outright encroachment of human rights.
He even brags about being untouchable i hear....hmmm...
The power of money nigerians would say but i.
I say.......'the rot of corruption'
