After the
National Universities Commission (NUC) asked Nigerians not to patronize
Maryam Abacha American University of Niger, the university on its
website has replied the commission saying they are only out to black
mail them and could be due to jealousy of the young but fast growing
institute. Below is what the university management also wrote in a memo
published on its website. In the memo the institution said;
“It
considers the NUC publication about Maryam Abacha American university
of Niger as blackmail and orchestrated campaigns of calumny to smear the
reputation of our young but rapidly growing university by some
self-seeking corrupt officers of the NUC and their external
collaborators jealous of the university.”
The management further made the following below clarifications to the public:
1. As a foreign university, the National Universities commission (NUC)
has no jurisdiction or legal right on the activities of Maryam Abacha
American university of Niger. This is why NUC has not in any way made
any visitation to Maryam Abacha American university of Niger since its
inception in 2013. Strangely enough, the NUC was quick to issue public
statement against a university it knows absolutely nothing about.nursingwo rldnigeria.com
2. The NUC publication against Maryam Abacha American university of Niger is an indictment of international policy as it has violated diplomatic channels of communication and other relevant diplomatic norms
3. It is on record that on 7th April, one Ajayi Eunic of the state house medical center, Asokoro Abuja wrote the NUC to verify the status of Maryam Abacha American university of Niger with the commission.
In its response ref: NUC/AS/PRV/
4. Maryam Abacha American university of Niger has also received a similar letter of recognition from the federal ministry of education of Nigeria, dated 27th October 2014 through the evaluation and accreditation division/
Maryam Abacha American University runs undergraduate degrees in core sciences, social sciences and the arts.

@emayomi:
i wonder the fate of the students in that school. any school in Nigeria
that NUC fail to recognise is not taken seriously by employers and
prospective students. The mgt of the school should work hard to remove
their name form the black book of NUC

academic
issues are best discussed between the bodies concerned. I will imagine
the authority of the said university did not do it right by going this
way. They needed to have sent delegations to the NUC. By what one reads
here, the university might face worse problems in the hands of NUC. of
course, students should beware!
