According to the report by Sahara Reporters, Aviation Minister Stella Odua's Master's degree which she claimed to have obtained from St. Paul’s College Lawrenceville, Virginia, US and presented to the Senate in 2011 as a ministerial nominee, is fake, because the school does not offer graduate programs.
Sahara Reporters learned from the President of the college that it has never in its 125-year history had a graduate school or graduate program. The Provost Vice President of Academic Affairs, and the Vice President of Institutional Development said “We don’t offer any graduate programs here.”
Premium Times went digging and it looks like the allegation is true because by 4pm today, her profile page on Facebook was edited and all traces of St. Paul’s College was removed from the account. It was also removed from her Wikipedia page and her biography on the Ministry of Aviation website. See screen grabs after the cut...
Her Wikipedia page only says she received her Bachelors and Masters Degree (in Accounting and Business Administration respectively) in the United States, with no mention of what university.

and what happens to Bode George who has been cleared of stealing over 87 billion naira by a competent Nigerian court...abeg make una leave this woman alone joor!!!
she is just one out of so many...the way the media is relentlessly witch-hunting this woman, they may be unknowingly turning her into a Hero!!!
let's see it from this perspective...
We'll always have issues like this re-occurring in this country till we start valuing our own or make our own educational institutions and valueable.
Another Toronto certificate. #issorai
Let's view this from this perspective....
this issues will continue to re-occur till we start valuing our own or make our educational institutions and system value-able.
all this one na sectional reporting and that's what Sahara reporters and Punch Newspaper are known for!!!. nobody is saying a damn word about Bankole, Fani-Kayode and Bode George anymore..its just how to remove Stella Oduah...I don't have any drop of faith in this opposition party..they are desperadoes!!!
Loool, reminds me of the days of 'University of Toronto'...
If speaking english means well educated to you, then you are still in the 80`s my broda.
All these people wet dry shakara Nigerians with unknown foreign schools all in the name of abroad credentials. Na our gullibility go kill us.
Thank you I observed that too, they have been protecting obj I wonder why they didn't say anything about obj's daughters letter. AIT is doing the same too destroying GEJ and elevating obj
This is d most ignorant thing I've heard anyone say in a long time. She most be "well educated" because she speaks good english??? Smh
abeg sahara report should rest jare. the airports are better now and that is what counts for me.
This is d most ignorant thing I've heard anyone say in a long time. She most be well educated because she speaks goos english? Christ
GEJ show me your ministers(ministers) and I will tell you who you are!!
No body is saying she is not educated but which school? And y is she lieing
Did Ʊ read through the post at all? I doubt it, who is saying she's not educated? We ar talking about forging certificates here Ʊ ar talking about the English she speaks. Pls read and digest before you post silly comments.
Interestingly, neither Oduah's
profile in the Ministry of Aviation
website, nor her profile in Wkipedia
and personal webpages made any
mention of studying in St Pauls,
"they merely said "Oduah-Ogiemwonyi
received her Bachelors and Masters
Degree (in Accounting and Business Administration respectively) in
the United States".
"Nigeria's media hawks claim the
profiles has recently been cleaned
up within the past 24 hours, but
no one has reproduced any previous
screen prints of her profiles to
show that the present ones has
indeed been cleaned and edited
Lmao! Fiance ke bf ni, me i'm thinkin abt my life joor. God help us
Ode. What has English got to do with cert. SMH.
why are we surprised? the problem is not Oduah but the big nosed man who keeps her in office. She is a shameless woman, if it were in a developed country she'll be nothing by now the media would have made sure of that.
Anonymous read this piece again. Then u should feel stupid for this comment.
It is ur type that is d problem wiv Nigeria. Native fowl like u. Very slowwww human being. Whr in d piece did Linda write she is nt WELL EDUCATED?
N r u trying to tell me GEJ's gvt is faultless? Smh.
Aunty Stella before it is too late ooh
A woman as pretty as she is should be freed of her flaws. Besides, it's a trend in our father land and it has gotta live wit us 4rever+ameen
She dint have to lie tho! But then no one is above silly or grevious mistakes.but then do we attribute all the airspace ordeal to her carelesness?? Well its all in our governmennt a lot of others ve fake c.vs.. God help Nigeria
Mr. Attack dogs of d yorubas, n so if dey want her removed @ all cost, is there anything wrong wiv that? Last tym I checked, if a ship sinks n ppl die, d captain better die too or live to face the music. D aviation ship hs sunk, som1 is gonna b held accountable. Who else if nt d leader?
U see its all these tribal sentiments that stagnate Nigeria. Mstcheww.
Plus wat does an accountant knw abt aviation? Cn she even tell u d alloys used in mking aircrafts? It's nt jst abt administration, u gotta knw it all in aviation; geography, mathematics etc.
Think well before u do. Always apply curtsy and wisdom in your attitude cus days of back-fire might come. If is true, "Odua na fuck up for you o"(u no plan well)
+EfeWithHumanCurtsy+
Very objective. I like this comment.
I swear down! U cnt do the right thing, n even in doin the wrong thing, u still cnt get it right. How dumb cn one be?!
"Fuck d world, d government too"! In d words of Ace Hood. Both she (d aviation minister) & d senators dat screen her r all bunch of stuff shirt 4 all r care! Dey r all irresponsible & stupid leaders. At least wat is worth doing at all is worth doing well. Dey should sit up to their responsibilities or posterity would judge dem! Fools! @ SHOK
After all dis ya long grammar, I hv one question. Why were her profiles edited n d education removed?
It is possible. U knw bck then it wsnt all abt a BSC. If u hd a good certificate/diploma, u ws good to go. My mum worked wiv her diploma for yrs b4 doin her 1st degree n MSc.
Una don see dis goat? Ewu Gambia! Mountain goat, dat is Wat u r. N this is how a million Nigeria youth are. "Oh she's nt d 1st, wnt b d last either, let her be"
Issokay.
So that she speaks well means she went to St.Paul's?
What has masters degree got to do wit how she speaks ?go to my village and listen to people who didn't go to school speaK
That's a very illiterate way to write.when we have unilag and ekpoma girls all over Nigeria speaking phonetics and they haven't crossed the border before or wizkid etc speaking ghetto American way before they were opportuned to travel.
Whilst Mr SR might be a political tool,they hardly if ever print untruths.if you know anything about this people,you will know their sources are more within the presidency than out of.
I suggest president Jonathans media people should begin to use their own "sources" and start to unearth some Toronto profiles in the opposition camp.
My worry is this,when anyone,of any tribe or gender is caught at a wrong,we resort to gender,ethnic,tribe,race,religious affiliation etc.
Wrong is wrong.lets deal with that first pending when we can get something on others.if Nigeria goes down,we all will suffer.whether igbo,Yoruba or Hausa.
So please lets stop these propaganda and faze out this irresponsible,wicked people.
Naija,we are all idiots.why bring tribal sentiment into what is wrong?a woman is accused of giving false impression,instead of her to clear de air,she goes about updating nonsense and some idiots are saying its bc she updated Enugu airport to international standard dats why Yorubas are after her.im neither of de two tribes.its high time we leave sentiment and be objective if not we can never move forward in this country .
She's not even smart. The other time she bought bullet proof cars, then paid some foolish women to protest for her after being caught. Now she faked a degree and went online to edit it after being caught. Dumb.com. Does she even have a sensible PR team?! *spits*
My kin,I'm of igbo origin.undiluted.
So because we have one functional airport,Mrs oduah should continue to embarrass us.what I can suggest is for our elders to use all that money they get from selling our heritage to research the so called Yoruba or Hausa people and expose them.
She should have cleaned up her mess instead of allowing this people to expose her so.
This woman should just resign already and save herself further embarrassments.
Thank you jobi.j.
Lies women tells. -Allen

Lies women tells. -Allen
Lol @snipper 's list
Another Toronto certificate?. But come oo, how come we are just hearing of this Sahara Reporters thing so much in this Jonathan administration but nothing in other previous administrations? Just hope they are not on a witch hunting exercise.
I believe if we can harness social media effectively there can be sanity in our system, every public office holder will be put to check knowing fully well there is no hiding place, even if govt decides to remain indifferent,people can mount pressure for redress, it is working in the developed country and it has started working here too, so criticize them,hold them responsible and accountable.whether true or false, she has got to convince us.
I dont blame her cos the Senate suppose to screen her to the level of knowing that she did not attain such qualification.
@lovlyivon .who asked you question?If the ssce school leaving age is 16-18 year.what did diezani madueke do till she got her first degree at 32 years.that is my question. Pls check her wikipedia information abeg. Did she go to evening classes LOL. Did she start first degree at 28 years.
People dey talk did I hear someone say genevieve.pls pls pls what business has she done successfully. What is her claim to fame .movies. To me genny is still at the very very bottom of the ladder.
The college that saharareporters claimed told them that Minister of Aviation, Stella oduah did not attend their school has since folded up about a year ago, in 2013. Here is the report; After 125 Years of Service, St. Paul’s College Shut Down. The report was written on June 30 2013 by Denise B. Hawkins. It is therefore doubtful that Sahara would have
gotten any response from a college that folded up around June 2013.
This is a HOAX.
How they faked the Aviation ministers Credentials on line to discredit and defame her.
This was an armature adventure...employed in a well known place using a well known tool in a well known arena.
Simple...
1]...They went through the internet
2]..Visited a site called Wikipedia.
3]...Signed in as an Editors.
4].. Created the Profile of Mrs Odua as the Aviation Minister.
5]..let is sat for a while
6]..The went and re-edited by adding items they needed for defame....as an editor and reviewer
The stage is set
7]..They reference their own publications.
8]..doing screen capture of Wikipedia to back up their claims.
9] They send things out for publication through a victim.
Funny Issues.
They are they ones who found all these information they put out their.
When exposed as false
They went back and made adjustments later....by deleting some of the falsely added items.
They were exposed because the Credentials they put out there was never in the Aviation ministers CV.
NOTE...
Wikipedia keeps the log all all those who made edits and when.*
This is a HOAX.
Ok.please enlighten us.where did she go to school.
Like majority of lindas commentators.they are mostly undergraduates but their written English is awful.
No one as said she needs it.shes the one that put claims to having the degree.what does really corrupt mean?ok,now,we are compartmentalizing dishonesty.my God!!I'm from an amazing country.
She should keep working but while at it for the avoidance of doubt ,she should please show us the original or certified true copy of her documents.
Leave Stella Oduah alone ooooooooo!
She's doing a very good job at our airports...
Many of the arses scalding her with criticism and shouting 'crucify her' have forged one document or the other at some point in their miserable lives.... including:
Vehicle licenses...
Birth certificates...
Marriage certificates...
Sworn falsehoods in affidavits, etc...
I discovered that those who criticize people the most have bigger issues...
According to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, their own problem is comparable to a log of wood; while the problem of victims of their critical attacks is only but a speck in comparison...
@anon 7:32,I'm Igbo too and I don't agree with your defense for this woman, Did Sahara repoorters also go to her Facebook to change her info?Let her come out and clear herself and tell the Nigerian public which school she got her degrees and not some insensitive people telling us that Sahara or Linda went to change her Wikipedia info. post this Lin Lin.
VACANCY!!!! A committee will soon b set up...send Ʊя cv †̥♥ ww. oga@dtop †̥♥ join d committee. N in case u missed d first,dnt worry,another will b set
The heat on this woman tho! I hope she has the stamina for all this o! She should not collapse one of tHis days o! *whew*
May God deliver us from the hands of this jezebel......the president and ministers are all involved in this scam.....shameless leaders
Another 'Toronto' matter wey e rezemble the 'Oga @ d top' yannings.
Who make we blame? Who is fooling who? The Senate who did not verify the qualifications before ratification of appointees to public service or the pretty woman who wants to get rich like other dirty politicians?
I sit down dey look sha!
9ja 'll be good!
-Ch!k@.
Linda, do not make your blog as one of the platforms for insulting people. Stay away from APC or Yoruba propaganda
Nigeria in the hands of mediocre. I want to believe most of us commenting on this platform have qualification above B.Sc, how do you feel when you heard this story? definitely bad. That is why nothing good cannot come out of them because you can never give what you do not have....Promiscuity in the presidency, an undisclosed transformation agendum...ooossshhhh
