BBN - SUBMISSION OF FILES TO THE HIGHER EDUCATION DEC: The Ministry thinks of the ordeal of those who come from the North?

Obtaining a diploma or provisional certificate from the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research is not easy. All-out reports without any prior information; this is the ordeal experienced by the various users for almost a month in Cotonou.

After the long process of studies in universities through the national exam, the withdrawal of diplomas is not easy. For a month already, no favorable follow-up to the approach of applicants for certification of their diploma.

Among them, there are some who came from Parakou to physically file the files in order to obtain the provisional certificate of their diploma at the DEC of higher education in Cotonou but in vain.

The first press release glued to the entrance of the FSS informs that the DEC will not be able to ensure the issuance of documents on Thursday, August 25. First a crushing blow for those who came from outside Cotonou.

At the entrance to the DEC, which is difficult to locate because of the absence of a sign, is written that “the operations for requesting and withdrawing Master’s, license and BTS certificates are continuing at the FSS bat. Pharmacy on Thursdays for withdrawal from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. and deposits Friday from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. Once at the FSS on Friday September 2, there is another press release which stipulates that « the filing of physical files for applications for Master’s, license and BTS acts will be done after September 16, 2022 », sadly tell these users who came of Parakou met on the spot.

To this effect of all-out change and reprogramming, what do we have in store for this student who may not have anyone in Cotonou? How will those who come from the North handle the deposit? It is urgent that the ministry review the way things work in order to make everyone enjoy the same privilege.
