Maduka University has officially responded to a viral social media video made by parent and content creator Mrs. Chika Akhigbe over the alleged refusal to release her daughter’s academic transcript, Myschoolnews Reports.
In a statement signed by the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Charles Ogbulogo, the institution described several claims made in the video as “false and misleading.”
According to the University, the student involved is from the Department of Medicine and Surgery, and official transcripts are only sent directly to receiving institutions in line with standard academic procedures, not handed to parents or students.
The management stated that the student’s father was asked to provide the name and address of the institution where the transcript should be forwarded, but the required details were not provided.
Maduka University also denied claims that the student’s school fees had been fully paid, revealing that there is still an outstanding balance of ₦500,000 from the ₦3.5 million tuition fee for the 2025/2026 academic session.
The institution further stated that no payment had been received for transcript processing as of May 21, 2026, contrary to allegations circulating online.
Reacting to other accusations in the viral video, the University dismissed claims of annual excessive fee hikes, insecurity on campus, and allegations that the Vice-Chancellor personally handled the transcript matter.
The school clarified that tuition and accommodation fees for returning medical students for the 2026/2027 academic session stand at ₦4,010,000 and not ₦4.5 million as alleged online.
Maduka University accused the parent of attempting to damage the institution’s reputation through social media pressure and maintained that it would continue to follow due process and established academic standards.
The institution also urged the public to disregard misleading narratives and rely only on verified information from official channels.
According to information gathered by MySchoolNews, the controversy has continued to generate reactions across social media, with many Nigerians debating transcript policies and tuition costs in private universities across the country.
