You sent four years in an institution without knowing it has no accreditation for the course you were pursuing? Sorry for you.
Who goes to a university especially own by a church like pentecost will think of them doing that. Its very bad. I would't have been surprise if it were central university or any other charismatic church university but penteco ...

What credibility has Church of Pentecost over charismatic universities, they are all the same, rubbish universities
The fact dt it is a University belonging to the Church of Pentecost is what baffles me too.
How can the authorities of d University bring into disrepute d reverred name of holy-spirit-filled Church of Pentecost this way?
You're a fool to be saying what you're saying. Wo maame twe paa. Such nonsense. Just cause what CoP is in your opinion an "old" church? aboa fuu.
I wouldn't dignify you with a respond cos your name self tells you are aboa nua so what else. Mitchewwww. Mmmoa too have now got mouth to speak in Kwame Nkrumah Gh. Its not your fault wai.
Church of Pentecost is full of politics,cronism,nepotism,fishy deals,will rebuke others who have left their wives or husbands but will rebuke others and pretend they don't know what is going.The Pastors would like to control ...

that church is full of criminals, drug dealers,theives, jealous, greedy,wicked and evil people. no wonder majority of members are from bush part of ghana
Some of u guys are extremely stupid to erroneously, blindly and harshly judge this issue by condemning the school. Their statement meant that only them not the entire school.
And so, if you are in the students shoe, you would not be saying what u are saying. It pains.
The question we shd ask is do these students have the requisite qualifications to pursue this programme?Most of these private universities are involved in this practice,as for National Accre.Board forget them.
You are a fool!! Were some of these rotten universities not given accreditation when the NPP was in power?
what has politics got to do with this.
Grow up nokware
Npp gave rubbish charter to rubbish church universities
Stupid students. Who has ever had a degree from that University. If you did write the same exams like degree holders why should you be expecting one.
Every university is different, this university dont give degrees, they giv ...

Is there something that you did not understand from reading the article?
The school lied to them. The school did not have the requisite approval from UofG Legon to give the cause and therefore HAD NO accreditation, and th ...

This is what we get when we approve every mushroom university. Even our established ones are collapsing.
I suggest to the eleven students to register with another university as private students, just to take the the exams if what i am saying makes any sense.
AS i understand from the article, they have gone through the whole co ...

Do we have independent universities where anyone could show up to register to write exams at certain levels of courses (like WAEC) and awarded degrees and or other honours? Even Open Universities would want to ensure you rece ...

SITTING A DEGREE EXAMS? WHY DO YOU ATTEND A UNIVERSITY? MY FRIEND, YOU ARE OUT OF PLACE.

You spent four years in an institution without knowing it has no accreditation for the course you were pursuing? Sorry for you.
"Embattled University" just what do you mean?, could you comment on their prior "fraudulent activities" or any financial woes? or whatever is making them "embattled"
THIS IS A CHURCH UNIVERSITY. IT SHOWS HOW LOW WE HAVE SANK. YOU CAN'T EVNE DEPEND ON THE CHURCH FOR HONEST DELIVERY. AS FOR THE ACCREDIATION BOARD, THE LEAST SAID THE BETTER.
sorry brothers and sisters for deceiving you talent
the national accreditation board is most stupid and idiots board i have ever seen in the country...how can you sit down there with block heads and let any institution from no where, start running courses without your approval ...

if churches are doing this then what are they preaching? the answer is MONEY but nothing; tout court.preaching virtues and practicing vices. even advent of many churches rather weaken the societal fibre.
You damn right. They hid behind the pulpit to steal in the name of saving souls with a glorious impunity and think they could do the same under the cover of educating the masses but at this juncture the masses will expose t ...

A renowned church like Pentecost shouldn't do this to these poor and innocent children. If what is reported is true then we have to go back to our root (Africa values, norms and principles) which the whites came and disorgani ...

I BELIEVE THE ACCREDITATION BOARD WANTED CHOP CHOP WHICH THE CHURCH REFUSED
If the board wanted bribe and you refused, why turned around and misrepresented yourself?
You're just as wrong as the board.
Is that high moral embedded in high ethics or straight out stealing that had been perfected from t ...

It's always important to listen to the other side before passing judgment.
I am a bit skeptical about the claim being made against the school. For a University or college of that size not having accreditation is very strange. I believe the school is not a run of the mill institution that just came t ...

What prevented the Republic from contacting the university for its version than to publish a one sided case

We are looking to see how this case will fare and be sure other suits will follow. There must order in our society.
This is why Ghana is a failed State. What was the ministry of education doing when the university was established and the courses they are offering? I blame the Ghana education service. They should not have allowed that. And ...

Tuffour, the issue at hand is that the course they took has not been accredited not the whole subjects offered in the school.
This is an insult to knowledge and education...
Bible Prophecies taking effect. Rev 17:17
The university should pay back that 2.9 millionto them. It's not their fault. I don't think everyone checks that the department of the university is accredited. What people normally do is that they check the university or the ...

You de crazy
that's bad and is a shame to the university
if what the students stand for is the truth,then what they are demanding is too small.go in for some 7.6million.what is that 2.7million for?u people dont know money at all.
These days some of the clergy are quick to attack government. bishop bosomtwe ayensu should comment on this. The authorities of the penteco university must speak to this issue immediately.
Quoting from the article: "The Course was subsequently converted to B.A. Communication Studies in 2011."
now were these 11 the only students in the entire program, since 2011? The program was B.A. in IT before it was changed ...
