The Association of University Teachers (AUT) at the University of Zimbabwe (UZ) has criticised the institution’s leadership, alleging that the university has devolved into a “factory of fake degrees” under the stewardship of Vice Chancellor Paul Mapfumo.
In a statement, the AUT declared that the University of Zimbabwe has “lost its integrity, its credibility, and its reputation.”
The association pointed to what it called the “one-day learning and exam farce” as merely a symptom of a much larger, insidious scheme designed to “churn out students who are not educated, but merely certified.”
The lecturers did not spare senior academic staff, accusing chairpersons and deans of complicity in this “charade” and “travesty,” asserting that they have abandoned their duty to uphold the highest educational standards.
The AUT statement read:
“The students are being sold fake degrees, degrees that are not worth the paper they are printed on. They are being robbed of their right to a quality education, their right to a bright future, and their right to a decent life.”
The AUT specifically singled out Vice Chancellor Paul Mapfumo, labelling him a “master of deception, a virtuoso of fake degrees.”
The association claims that Mapfumo has orchestrated a system where students are “forced to buy their degrees, where students are forced to pay for grades, and where students are forced to pay for their certification.”
The lecturers’ body urged all stakeholders to “stand up against this factory of fake degrees.” They demanded “a quality education, a bright future, and a decent life,” saying “the students, the lecturers, and the nation deserve better.” Pindula
