Cuppy launches university hardship fund at King’s College London

Posted on March 25, 2025 by Newsaccessadmin

Nigerian singer, philanthropist, and youth advocate Florence Ifeoluwa Otedola, popularly known as Cuppy, has once again taken bold steps in advancing educational opportunities for African students.

In a landmark announcement, she unveiled the Cuppy Foundation’s 2024 report while introducing a new Hardship Fund at King’s College London, dedicated to supporting African students facing financial difficulties.

Speaking on this initiative, Cuppy emphasized the importance of education in fostering social change:

“This year has been a milestone for the Cuppy Foundation, with our work extending across borders and impacting lives globally. Our collaborations, including initiatives with the United Nations, Save The Children, and The King’s Trust, have supported communities across Africa and the diaspora, amplifying our vision of fostering global change through education.”

The Cuppy Foundation has continued to expand its reach beyond Nigeria and Africa, positioning itself as a force for change in global education equity.

The 2024 report highlights some of the foundation’s key achievements, including:
•Furthering its partnership with Save the Children to provide education, child protection, nutrition, and reproductive health interventions for vulnerable populations.
•Supporting African students through the University Hardship Fund at Oxford University, New York University and now at King’s College London.
•Strengthening its global influence through partnerships with leading humanitarian and educational institutions.

King’s College London Hardship Fund: A Lifeline for African Students

With a strong belief in education as a right, not a privilege, the Cuppy Foundation has launched the King’s College London Hardship Fund to alleviate financial burdens on African students pursuing higher education. Many African students in the UK struggle due to fluctuating exchange rates, visa restrictions, and rising living costs. This fund ensures that talented students are not forced to abandon their academic dreams due to financial difficulties.

“Education has always been at the heart of what we do at the Cuppy Foundation. Establishing this Hardship Fund at King’s College London is another step towards ensuring that African students receive the support they need to complete their studies and thrive,” said Cuppy.

The fund will be administered through a transparent selection process, with representatives from the Foundation and King’s College London overseeing applications and disbursement.

Beyond financial support, Cuppy has leveraged her global platform to advocate for African students and youth development. In March, she spearheaded the “Change A Girl’s Life” campaign for the Kings Trust, championing gender equity and business development. As an ambassador for The King’s Trust International, she further solidified her influence in philanthropic and educational initiatives.

Kat Farram, King’s Trust International Fundraising Director, praised Cuppy’s dedication: “Cuppy is a fantastic ambassador for The King’s Trust International. Her boundless passion for empowering young people and supporting our work worldwide is inspiring.”

Since its establishment in 2018, the Cuppy Foundation has consistently championed youth empowerment, education, and social welfare initiatives across Africa and beyond. From funding primary healthcare and education programs in Nigeria to supporting students at top global institutions, the foundation is reshaping the future of many young Africans.

With the launch of the King’s College London Hardship Fund, the foundation reinforces its mission to break financial barriers in education and ensure that the next generation of African leaders, innovators, and changemakers has the opportunities they deserve.

“Again, it is still mandatory for every parent to pay his/her personal income tax and collect his/her tax clearance certificate as provided for by the Nigerian constitution.

“This is because their wards might not enjoy some privileges such as bursary allowance and others at some point while in their various institutions of learning, ” he said.

On illegal tax collection by some unknown persons who block the highway, he said the service had clamped down on them and had arrested several with 43 people being prosecuted.

According to him, the service will not rest on its oars at giving such saboteurs no room to defraud the state nor rob innocent citizens of their hard earned monies.

Posted on October 14, 2024 by Newsaccessadmin

Every year, the Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings stirs anticipation among academic institutions and students worldwide.

For the 2025 academic year, the rankings evaluated almost 2,000 universities from 115 countries and territories, making it the most comprehensive assessment of higher education on a global scale.

The University of Oxford maintained its position at the top of the list for the ninth consecutive year, cementing its status as the world’s best university.

However, other top-tier institutions like MIT and Stanford saw notable changes in their positions.

Here is a list of top 10 ranked universities globally

1. University of Oxford:

The University of Oxford has been the undisputed leader in global higher education for nearly a decade. Established in the 12th century, Oxford’s legacy of excellence spans centuries, offering a diverse range of programs, world-class faculty, and cutting-edge research facilities. What keeps Oxford ahead of the pack? A blend of rigorous academic standards, high-impact research, and unparalleled resources.

Additionally, its global partnerships and funding provide the necessary support to maintain its academic dominance.

2. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT):

MIT has made significant strides, rising to second place in the world rankings. MIT’s ascent is a testament to its continuous focus on scientific discovery, technological advancements, and entrepreneurial ventures. Known for its groundbreaking research in fields like artificial intelligence, robotics, and clean energy, MIT has become a global leader in innovation.

FULL LIST: FG lists eight accredited universities in Togo, Benin

Posted on August 26, 2024 by Newsaccessadmin

The Federal Government has said that only eight universities have been accredited to award degrees to Nigerians in Togo and Benin Republic.

The Minister of Education, Tahir Mamman, made this known on Sunday night while speaking on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics programme.

Speaking during the programme, the minister said the federal government only recognised three institutions in Togo and five in Benin Republic while identifying others as illegal institutions.

The minister also insisted that there is no going back on the decision of the federal government to cancel about 22,700 certificates awarded to Nigerians by some “fake” universities in neighbouring Togo and Benin Republic.

Mamman maintained that the decision to invalidate the certificates was not harsh as Nigerians who obtained degree certificates from such “illegal” tertiary institutions dent the country’s image.

He said, “Most of those parading the fake certificates didn’t even leave the shores of Nigeria but got their certificates through racketeering in collaboration with government officials at home and abroad.

“The “fake universities” capitalised on the “gullibility” of Nigerians patronising such fake schools.

“The federal government, through the offices of the Head of Civil Service and the Secretary of the Federation, would fish out those in the government’s employment with such fake certificates. I also urge the private sector to follow suit.”

Here is a list of the public universities to offer degree programs in Togo for students from Nigeria.

1. Universite De Lome

2. Universite De Kara

3. Catholic University of West Africa

Here is a list of five accredited universities authorized to provide degree programs in Benin Republic of Benin for students from Nigeria.

There is apprehension among Nigerians who acquired their degree certificates in Benin Republic and Togo respectively.

This is coming after the Minister of Education, Prof. Tahir Mamman disclosed on Friday, August 23, while giving his first year ministerial scorecard, that over 22,500 Nigerians are obtained fake certificates from Universities in Benin Republic and Togo between 2019 and 2023.

Mamman said that over 21,600 people obtained the certificates from unaccredited universities in Benin Republic within the mentioned period while about 1,105 obtained theirs at some unaccredited Universities in Togo.

He also said that anybody who attended a university solely run in English from 2017, is wasting his time because it’s not an approved university. That is their policy.

He revealed that the Federal Government has authorised the termination of employees in the public and private sectors who possess counterfeit degree certificates.

“So in the final analysis, what the federal government approved is that the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, will issue a circular to all employers, whether public or private, to fish out anybody with a certificate from these institutions—that circular probably would have been out by now.

“And the Head of Service, has also been mandated to fish out from the public service anybody who is parading certificate from these institutions.

“So this is the decision of the federal government on this matter,” he said.

The Ministry had on Tuesday, January 3, announced the suspension of accreditation of degree certificates from 46 Benin Republic and Togo.
