Tanzania expels 'unqualified' college students

[Samm999]

Thousands of university and college students in Tanzania are in danger of being expelled after the authorities discovered a major scam involving the enrolment of unqualified students.
Education Minister Joyce Ndalikacho has announced the dissolution of the board of the Tanzania Commission for Universities (TCU) and suspended other senior officials.
The country's Guardian and Citizen newspapers say the government has already expelled 489 students who had been admitted to St Joseph University and given government loans even though they did not "even qualify to pursue a certificate in teaching".
The government has since closed the university's campuses in northern and southern Tanzania.

SMH how now????

Kibaya zaidi walikuwa wanalipwa fedha na Serikali ambazo hawakupaswa kulipwa wakati kuna wanafunzi wengi wenye sifa wamekosa fedha!

Kuna vitu vinaudhi mno. Tunakwenda tu kulaumu products za taasisi zetu za elimu ya juu eti wanazalisha vilaza bila kutazama credibility ya mifumo inayowaandaa. Watu wanacheza tu na future ya taifa bt wanachekewa tu.

Nairobi Aviation College students blocked Kimathi Street on Monday to protest an exposé aired on NTV about the selling of certificates.

The students, who carried twigs and college banners, threw rocks at Nation Centre, breaking doors and windows and chasing journalists who were taking pictures.

Chanting “Haki Yetu”, the students climbed on top of vehicles parked outside the building.

The students dispersed after protesting for about half an hour but regrouped and returned.

Several journalists were harassed and lost valuables, including cameras and mobile phones.

Police tear-gassed the students to disperse them and arrested at least 12 of them over the protest.

The students were protesting a story aired on NTV and published in the Nation exposing the rot in higher learning institutions that engage in academic malpractices.

Some institutions dish out certificates without requiring one to step into a classroom.

The story revealed how certificates are sold and degrees “cleaned”.

Damaging claims show that Nairobi Aviation College, which boasts 16 years of offering professional training, is riddled with fraud that stains its reputation.

A lecturer at the college claimed he had helped thousands of students to acquire certificates without their setting foot in class. He bragged about his network across all campuses.

Teaching is a very honorable profession.

Zoezi hili pia litafanywa kwa vyuo vingine? Waajiri nao wahakikishe waajiriwa wao vyeti vyao havina kasoro.

Hahahahahahahahaha.dead

Some students from the same universities might have graduated in previous yrs! will the Tz government nullify(void) their certificates? Let TCU and the ministry of education enlighten us on such graduates(if at all they exist).

MUM ni chuo kizuri kwasababu kinadahili wanafunzi walio na vigezo.... Ila St Joseph si chuo cha kupeleka mwanao na wala usimshauri kukiselect pamoja na kile cha gongo la mboto Kampala international University Dar es Salaam campus

Kama mjomba ndiye mkurugenzi mkuu au mkurugenzi utumishi, kamwe hawezi kutekeleza hayo, ni kulindana tu!! kuna waalimu wengi sana wenye vyeti feki au vya watu wengine!

Please let Government under the able leadership of President Dr Magufuli sack all workers(employees) in the government and private sectors who have been using fake certificates or certificate which belong to other people even if they have been in office for twenty five years. We are made to believe that such fake employees are everywhere and in particular government parastatals, ministries(all ministries) and some of them hold senior posts. Prof Ndalichako and minister A Kairuki should lead the clearing exercises as soon as possible. God gave us(Tanzania) Magufuli as president for a purpose!!!
