Varsity Reacts to Video Of Lady Burning Her Certificate Over Unemployment, Says She is No Longer their Graduate

CURSORY: A university has revoked the degree of a graduate from the school because she burnt her certificate out of frustration of not finding a job with it.

The management of Exploits University, Malawi has revoked a BSc in Business Administration degree it awarded to a former student, Bridget Thapwile Soko.

Bridget had burnt her certificate in a viral video after being frustrated by years of unemployment since graduation.

The Institution released a statement condemning her actions and sent a letter to the graduate informing her of its decision to revoke her degree.

President of Exploits University, Dr. Desmond Bikoko, in the letter dated 21st October, 2022, said burning her certificate is a disgrace and it is taken to mean she wishes to tarnish the image of the school.

It reads;

“We have learnt with disappointment that you recorded a video clip burning a degree that we awarded to you upon completion of your studies with Exploits University and posted on social media.

“It is our interpretation that you did this to disgrace and tarnish the image of the university.

“The university is therefore revoking the degree of business administration awarded to you. Our decision will also be made public through the media.

“Consequently, you are no longer a graduate of Exploits University and as such your degree certificate is invalidated with immediate effect.”
