Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that the vice chancellor of Bayero University, Kano (BUK), had refuted reports that the institution has 20 counterfeit professors.

This is after a broadcast medium published 100 names of purported fake professors in Nigeria alongside their institutions.

The Vice-Chancellor further noted that the National Universities Commission, the authoritative body overseeing higher education in Nigeria, had discredited and disowned any such report suggesting the presence of counterfeit professors within the university.
