University Of Zimbabwe Confirms Dexter Nduna Did Not Graduate With Law Degree
The University of Zimbabwe (UZ) has confirmed that ZANU PF Central Committee member Dexter Nduna did not graduate with a law degree from the institution this year, despite his claims.
Nduna, a former Chegutu West MP and current chairperson for resource mobilisation and revenue generation within the ZANU PF Central Committee, did not meet the requirements for graduation, having failed several modules of his law degree.
He reportedly requested a remarking of his exams, alleging bias due to his political affiliation, but his appeal was unsuccessful.
As a result, he did not receive a results transcript indicating completion of his modules, nor did he obtain a certificate on graduation day like other graduates.
On social media, Nduna claimed to have graduated from UZ and shared a receipt for the graduation gown he purchased after confirming his place on the list of graduating students. He also congratulated himself on this achievement.
While Nduna paid the graduation fee and acquired a gown, he was seated in the audience rather than participating in the ceremony with his graduating class.
The UZ Faculty of Law has clarified the situation by releasing a list of students who did not graduate in 2024 due to outstanding courses. The notice states:
The following students were meant to graduate in 2024 but could not meet the graduation requirements since they had some outstanding courses. They are requested to register for the failed courses with the Students and Registration Office to repeat them in the 2024/2025 academic year.
Nduna, who was pursuing a Bachelor of Substantive Laws rather than the more prestigious Bachelor of Laws Honours Degree, is included in this list and is required to repeat courses.
According to the notice, he failed three courses: Energy and Mining Law, Labour Law, and Language Acquisition and Intercultural Communication Literacy (Chinese Language).
