COFEK Issues 14-Day Ultimatum on UoN and Moi BDS Accreditation

 The Consumers Federation of Kenya gave the Ministry of Education 14 days to confirm if Bachelor of Dental Surgery programmes at the University of Nairobi and Moi University hold valid accreditation from the Commission for University Education.

 The ultimatum follows a May 28 High Court ruling that upheld CUE's sole authority over programme approvals, raising questions about pre-2013 'legacy' courses at these institutions. 

COFEK warns of a lawsuit if ignored and calls for a public register of accredited courses plus audits of health sciences programmes to shield students from regulatory risks. KMPDC lists both universities as approved for BDS training, but verification remains key amid the ongoing dispute.
