‎The university spokesman said collection of the certificate before the deadline would be free.

“The N15,000 fine is to ensure that the graduates come forward to collect the backlog of certificates lying at the registry,’’ he said.

According to him, most of the certificates are not for recent graduates of two to three years ago, adding that those who failed to collect ”are mostly those who graduated 10 years and above ago,’’.

Martins said the new practice in the university is to send message to graduates as soon as their certificates are ready.
