Fake Professor Nabbed in Bid to Establish Private University




A fake Professor of Statistics has been nabbed by the National Universities Commission (NUC) after suspicions were aroused during interactions for his bid to establish a private university: Nigeria British University.

The man whose name was simply given as Ambi P.N had claimed to be a Professor of Statistics from Universities in Ghana and Nigeria.

He had been invited for a meeting with NUC authorities to discuss the proposal for the University which is to be situated in Lagos.

His professorial claims were questioned by the Executive Secretary of the NUC, Prof. Julius Okojie, during the interaction on Tuesday, after he gave conflicting statements.

Ambi initially claimed to have obtained his Professorship from the Obong University, Akwa Ibom State and studied at the University of Science and Technology Kumasi Ghana up to PhD level. He later claimed to have studied at the University of Ewe,Ghana and in a third account,he claimed to be a staff of Covenant University on sabbatical at Obong University.
