Can FADLU Operate a Liaison Office in Nigeria Without NUC Accreditation?

First African Distance Learning University (FADLU) can maintain a liaison office in Nigeria. However, the office should not operate as a full degree-awarding campus unless it receives accreditation from the National Universities Commission (NUC). Public records indicate that FADLU is incorporated in Nigeria and registered with the Higher Education Commission in Mauritius. The institution also lists memberships in several international higher-education bodies. FADLU reportedly operates a rented liaison office in Awgu, Enugu State. Prospective students should confirm the accreditation status of any programme with the relevant Nigerian authorities before enrolling.

What clear information should a liaison office provide so prospective students understand it is not operating as a degree-awarding campus?

Exactly, clear wording about its role and limits would save students plenty of confusion from the start.

The distinction matters: maintaining an office is different from running a university campus or awarding degrees in Nigeria.

Calling it a liaison office may still confuse people if its activities look too much like regular university operations.

Anyone considering FADLU should confirm exactly what the Nigerian office handles and whether any programme has NUC accreditation.
