Obafemi Awolowo University loses accreditation for Four Major courses

Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife, has lost accreditation for four of the courses offered in the institution, Thecable reports.

The National Universities Commission (NUC) has reportedly suspended the university’s law, dentistry, medical rehabilitation, and botany programmes.

Prospective students who selected any of the four courses in the just-concluded Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination (UTME) have been asked to change their course or institution.

Olarenwaju said the withdrawal of accreditation will be sorted out by September.

“We are going to sort it out, latest by September, and everything will come back to shape,” he told TheCable.
