  28. Good news ppl..cos Houdegbe North American University is NOW recognised by NUC, according 2 my researches on the net and corporate bodies in NUC…u can now serve ur country and the NYSC program is fully certified…if you are still doubting, you can check for yourself. Preferable ask GOOGLE

  37. For GOD’s SAKE HNAUB is accredited by NUC…it’s only it’s campuses in 9ja dat is illegal…I’m here in HNAUB and there are benefits u can serve in either LAGOS, P/Hacourt or Abuja 4 ur NYSC programme…HURRY admission ends NOV.9th 2011

  42. Pls help solve these riddles:Has NUC power of approval/accreditation over non-Nigerian universities? Is it not the Fed. Min.of Educ. that has responsibility for RECOGNISING (or otherwise) the approval/accreditation of the HOME government? NUC should publish the addresses/locations of Houdegbe North American University Benin in Nigeria for the sake of the current 5,000+ Nigerian students of this university (not counting we graduates) & to clear the rumor that this university is being blackmailed. Since a university cant be hidden, cant the police arrest, prosecute & shut down campuses? And how come, as the records authoritatively confirm, ALL Nigerian graduates of this “illegal” university are admitted for NYSC every year after clearance by the Fed. Min. of Education?
