We have gotten your assurances. Proposed dates. From ending of this month, to June.

We say no, to unofficial dates.
We want coordinated dates on an official memo from MDCN and FUTA.
We have people that scored 100 in FUTA post UTME in the pioneers class. We have people that came back for another degree, we have people that left their admission in other schools only to be stucked for 5 yrs

It’s quite concerning that an institution like FUTA, known for its active social media presence, alongside the MDCN, appears to remain silent despite the ongoing online protests. Matters affecting students,deserve attention but it seems the school care less about it.

Day 3 of consistently demanding what is rightfully ours.
Why is FUTA MBBS still without accreditation? What exactly is causing the delay?
We deserve clear answers and full transparency.

An MBBS student of FUTA sent me this. I would like to call the attention of everyone involved and those who could also lend their voices @NiMSA_Nigeria, @nationalnma, @FutaBro, @omo_Akinbile, @Nigerian_Doctor, @aproko_doctor

WHAT IS HAPPENING TO FUTA MBBS STUDENTS?
I have tried to keep quiet for a long time.
I kept telling myself things would improve.
I kept hoping the school would fix this.
But at this point, keeping quiet feels irresponsible.
This is about the MBBS programme at Federal University of Technology Akure — and it is urgent.
5 YEARS… AND STILL IN 300 LEVEL
The pioneer MBBS students were admitted in 2021 and matriculated in 2022. Today — five years later — they are still stuck in 300 level pre-clinical.
Five years.
Their mates in that same university are preparing for graduation this year. These students don’t even know when they will move to clinicals. Imagine watching everyone you started with move forward while your life is on pause.
WHY ARE THEY STUCK?
Medical students cannot move to clinical training without accreditation from the
Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN). But after all these years, accreditation has still not happened. Right now:
• There are five different sets in the programme
• Three entire sets are stuck in 300 level
• Nobody is moving forward
How do you start a medical programme and still not be ready for accreditation years later?
PARENTS ARE NOW BEING ASKED TO FUND ACCREDITATION
Parents were asked to contribute money for a mock accreditation. Yes — parents are now being asked to fund something that should have been planned before this programme even began. And since then?
• No clear updates.
• No clear timeline.
• No visible progress.
Just promises. And prayers.
REAL LIVES ARE ON HOLD
This is not just a “delay.” This is:
• Years of youth slipping away
• Families pouring money into uncertainty
• Students living with anxiety and frustration
• Dreams being paused indefinitely
Five years of a young person’s life cannot be treated like this.
THE QUESTIONS NO ONE IS ANSWERING
Students and parents deserve to know:
1. When exactly is MDCN accreditation coming?
2. What is the official timeline?
3. What happens if this delay continues?
4. How will these students graduate on time?
5. When is the first MB (1st professional exam) holding?
Silence is not an answer.
THIS IS A PLEA FOR ACTION
We are asking the leadership of FUTA to:
• Communicate transparently
• Give a clear accreditation timeline
• Provide real contingency plans
• Prioritise the students already in the programme
These students have waited long enough. They deserve progress. They deserve clarity. They deserve accountability.
Please share. 🙏🏽 Awareness matters.
