WANTON CONFERMENT OF HONORARY DEGREES BY UNACCREDITED FOREIGN INSTITUTIONS
ACCRA, SEPTEMBER 4 2018. The National Accreditation Board (NAB) has noticed with great concern the spate of conferment of honorary degrees and professorial titles on some personalities by some unaccredited institutions, accredited institutions unqualified to award degrees on their own or other institutions with doubtful credentials.
The Board has been reliably informed that another of such unaccredited institution -RESCUE MISSION THEOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY has scheduled to confer such honorary degrees on some gullible and unsuspecting individuals. The Security Agencies have been alerted to arrest this worrying trend of institutions with doubtful and questionable existence coming into our Country to perform such ridiculous activities.
