My Cotonou University Degree Delivered Like Pizza – Undercover Journalist

An undercover journalist has disclosed that his Cotonou University degree was delivered to him like pizza.

 

An undercover journalist, Umar Audu, on Wednesday, shed more light on how easy it was to get a certificate from Cotonou-based University in Benin Republic within six weeks.

Audu in his investigative report titled, “How Daily Nigerian reporter bagged Cotonou varsity degree in 6 weeks,” exposed a booming certificate racketeering syndicate in neighbouring African countries like Benin Republic and Togo, that specialises in selling university degrees to willing buyers in Nigeria.

 

According to him, the certificate was delivered like pizza after payment was made.

“This certificate will be delivered to you just like you ordered for a pizza or something and you give them your location and it is delivered to you. That was what motivated me to conduct this investigation,” he said on Channels Television’s Morning Brief.

This certificate bears the name of an undercover Nigerian reporter, Umar Audu, who bagged a Cotonou varsity degree in six weeks.

 

The certificate and transcript bore the authentic scan code of Ecole Superieure de Gestion et de Technologies, ESGT, Benin Republic and it came at an affordable rate.

His investigation forced the Federal Government to suspend the accreditation and evaluation of degree certificates from Benin Republic and Togo.

Days after, Audu, who works at the Daily Nigerian newspapers, said: “I never travelled out of Nigeria during this investigation.”
