Under the dual qualification scheme which will begin this (2019/2020) academic year, students who enrol in a degree programme will compulsorily have to pursue a corresponding professional programme like ACCA, ICAG, CIM, CIMA, ICSA, etc, as an additional course.
This, according to university authorities, was to ensure that students who graduated from the institution possess both a degree and a chartered certificate.

Explaining the new policy at the 11th Congregation of the University held last month, Vice-Chancellor, Professor Abednego Feehi Okoe Amartey, said the dual qualification scheme was geared towards making graduates more relevant and equipped for the job market.
“We are currently blending professional programmes with normal degree programmes [which is] aimed at making UPSA graduates more relevant and job-ready, through our [newly introduced] dual qualification scheme,” he said.

 

Prof Amartey noted that possessing first degrees were no longer sufficient to make one employable in recent times. It is against this backdrop that he implored the students to take advantage of the free tuition programme.
“Graduates who hold normal degrees are perceived by employers as not having the requisite skill needed on the job. This is why I entreat you to take advantage of the compulsory tuition for all professional programmes to make a difference when you step into the competitive world of business,” he said.
The Vice-Chancellor further emphasized that the additional tuition for the professional programmes will come at no extra cost to the learner.

  Debunking the Misguided Attacks on Nnamdi Kanu:  A Response to Baseless Accusations and Personal Vendettas by “Ugochinyere David”   “Ugochinyere David”, an obscure writer hiding behind a pseudonym, seeks relevance by attacking Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, a prominent freedom fighter. His article, "Kanu continues a futile attempt at grandstanding," is a biased, sensationalist piece that undermines journalistic integrity. Rather than addressing the complex legal and political issues surrounding Kanu, “David” resorts to ad hominem attacks, sweeping generalizations, and a blatant disregard for factual accuracy. This response dissects the article’s flaws and exposes its personal vendetta against Kanu.   1. Mischaracterization of Kanu’s Struggle “David” claims that Kanu has plunged the South-East into "chaos and backwardness," ignoring the decades-long marginalization and systemic injustice faced by the Igbo people. He conveniently overlooks the terror perpetrated by Ful...

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu ~ “I AGITATE FOR BIAFRA; IT IS MY RIGHT TO AGITATE.”

The Unyielding Struggle of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and the Biafran libration             Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s declaration, “I agitate for Biafra; it is my right to agitate,” underscores the universal fight for self-determination—a right enshrined in international law. Yet, his persecution, illegal detention, and Nigeria’s disregard for court rulings and UN directives reveal a troubling erosion of justice. From his extraordinary rendition in 2021 to the indefinite adjournment of his case, Kanu’s plight demands global attention. As the Latin saying goes, "Iniuria uni fit iniuria omnibus"—injustice to one is injustice to all. It’s a call for activists and people of conscience worldwide to rise in solidarity and demand justice.  “I AGITATE FOR BIAFRA; IT IS MY RIGHT TO AGITATE.” In a bold declaration during a recent court appearance, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), asserted, “I agitate for Biafra; it is my right to agitat...

Unity in Diversity: A Facade? The Nigerian Paradox and the Illusion of Amalgamation

  Unity in Diversity: A Facade? The Nigerian Paradox and the Illusion of Amalgamation WARNING ⚠:  Kindly spare 10 -15 minutes of your time, this article is philosophical and shall require more focus and reflection.   Verily, let us embark upon a discourse most profound, a meditation upon the nature of unity and the artifice thereof, as it pertains to the entity known as Nigeria. A land vast and varied, a tapestry woven of many threads—some vibrant, some frayed—yet bound together by the hand of colonial machination. The year of our Lord 1914 marked the birth of this contrived nation, a forced amalgamation orchestrated not by the will of its peoples, but by the decree of foreign overlords. "Ex injuria jus non oritur," saith the Latin maxim: from a wrong, right cannot arise. And yet, here we stand, beholding the edifice of Nigeria, a structure built upon the sands of coercion, its foundation cracked and its walls leaning precariously.   The words of Nigeria’s s...
