NOA Commends Daily Nigerian’s Investigative Report on Fake Foreign Varsity Degrees, Certificates

The National Orientation Agency, NOA, has commended Daily Nigerian for exposing the fraudulent process of obtaining fake university degrees and certificates at the Ecole Superieure de Gestion et de Technologies, Cotonou, Republic of Benin.

Mallam Lanre Issa-Onile, the Director General of NOA, in a letter of Commendation to the Editor of Daily Nigerian, Ibrahim Ramalan, described the online newspaper’s latest undercover story as an “outstanding investigative Report”.

The report published on the December 30, 2023 edition of the Daily Nigerian is a shining example of first class journalism for national development, according to Onilu, a former spokesperson of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.

The NOA helmsman, in his commendation letter to Daily Nigerian which PRNigeria obtained, said: “We at the NOA find this very laudable, especially as this reminds the nation’s media organisations of their avowed agenda-setting roles for development rather than adversarial journalism.

“In commending your patriotic and professional efforts, we urge the media practitioners to be mindful of their roles of fairness, objectivity and balanced reporting to strengthen national cohesion and security.

“The NOA, therefore, reiterates the need for journalists to be diligent and nationalistic in discharging their duties. This quintessential journalism of the Daily Nigerian should serve as a benchmark to the media industry as partners in nation-building”.
