The management of Babcock University, Ilisan Remo, has debunked online reports that purportedly identified certain individuals as fake professors within various private and public universities across the country.
The reported online list included approximately 100 individuals accused of being fake professors, with nine allegedly affiliated with Babcock University.
In a statement released on Sunday night, Dr. Joshua Suleiman, the Director of Communication and Marketing for the university, strongly denounced the report, labeling it as mischievous and outright falsehood.
The statement partly reads, “Babcock University strongly condemns a faceless online post that places the university’s name on the list of universities with fake professors.
“The list, which was spuriously attributed to the National Universities Commission, is not only ill-motivated and utterly mischievous. It is outrightly condemnable.
“Babcock University has a reputation for due diligence and rigorous search for and recruitment of her academic staff.
“Babcock University takes more than a keen interest in the quality of education offered to her students, and she would do nothing to undermine their future by recruiting academics with fake professorial credentials or any disputable certificates for that matter.”
“Babcock University is guided by strong values that will dissuade her from compromising on quality, integrity, responsibility, and honest service to God and humanity.
“While we continue to relentlessly pursue and advocate meritocracy in our institutions, we urge our students, parents, and the public as a whole to disregard and spurn, with every sense of responsibility, the evil-inclined publication.
“We assure the public of Babcock University’s constant and consistent delivery of high-quality education.”
