University revokes degree of woman over comments made in a podcast
Chinwe Splendor, a recent podcast guest, has found herself at the center of a scandal after making inflammatory comments about her academic success and personal relationships. The university she attended has taken swift action, revoking her degree and ordering her to return her certificate within 48 hours.
During the podcast, Splendor claimed to have rarely attended lectures yet still managed to graduate with good grades, attributing her success to using her “body” to get what she wanted. She also made controversial claims about her relationships with top real estate executives.
The university has deemed her remarks inappropriate and contradictory to its values, stating that they uphold academic integrity and moral standards. Splendor has expressed distress over the decision, but the university remains firm in its stance.
Social media users are reacting to the news, with many expressing outrage and disappointment at Splendor’s comments. “People don’t think through the consequences of actions or statements,” wrote one user. “She’s enjoying more viewings on her podcast while the university is left to deal with the fallout.”
Others are questioning Splendor’s defense of her actions, with one user asking, “Was your fellow coursemate part of the ‘nusinace’ you committed? Even though you have a right to defend it?” Another user pointed out that Splendor didn’t mention the name of the institution or the lecturers she allegedly slept with, and that the video from the podcast may not hold up in a law court.
Some users are also criticizing Splendor’s claim that she “worked hard” for her degree, with one user asking, “How did you work for it? We understood your words, and so do well to educate us on the work you did.” Another user simply stated, “Y’all think universities are joking? They can recall that certificate. It is their property. Academic and moral excellence is still the key.”
The university’s decision has been praised by many, who see it as a necessary step in maintaining the value and credibility of academic degrees.
