DALC SCAM: PEOPLE HAVE HAD ENOUGH!

The events are DALC are indeed saddening. At DALC Education, Lecturers have not been paid the expected amounts despite Oborah pocket lots of money from students he cons.

DALC lecturers will be paid marking fees as follows:

  • Assignments @ 20/= each
  • Continuous Assessment Test @ 30/= each
  • Module Projects @ 40/= each
  • Overall Project/
  • Dissertation @ 50/= each ( Why would DALC be marking dissertations yet it is not a University?)
This is in consideration of that the students are paying sh. 5,400 per project and sh. 6000 per module. Do the math from there.

This announcement also proves that Oborah is dishonest. Why are lecturers marking the final project yet these are supposed to be marked in the UK? Don't tell us that he needs to mark them here before sending them to the UK because that is absolute nonsense. Do other UK examination bodies allow exams to be marked by your tutor? IGCSE, ACCA, IMIS etc. Whats the need of paying the UK examination fees if all the work is done here. Students are being fooled to believe in this UK thing yet Oborah does everything here. Ask DALC lecturers, they will tell you openly that the marks they award are the ones that appear on the transcripts. So how is that possible if the transcripts are sent to UK.

Oborah realised the folloy of sending hardcopy projects as they were becoming a headache to deal with-storage and all. We know (from elvis kinyae) that these were kept at his house and when they became too many, he asked students to upload them to the DALC system . As usual, he played mind games with students telling them that he was modernising DALC and offering 22nd century education. The truth is that soft copies are easier to deal with and like we have always opinioned. When things get thick, Oborah will format his servers disks and poof! all the evidence that you were ever at DALC will be gone.

There has been growing discontent as a result of all these things and lecturers have come out and openly admitted that DALC is a fraud. Recently, one of them wrote:

PEOPLE LETS COME TOGETHER I GUESS WE HAVE REACHED A POINT OF NO RETURN.WE HAVE GIVEN DALC OUR ALL AND NOW I GUESS ITS TIME THAT IS H AND HIS DEAREST WIFE paid.YOU FORGET THAT WE HAVE GENUINE PAPERS AND WE DIDN'T FALL INTO THE TRAP OF DOING PHD'S WITH IRISH INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY.
That clearly shows that the lecturers are well aware of the DALC scam where diploma students are tricked into enrolling for degree programs which involve fishy research projects that are supervised by the DALC lecturers. Never mind that DALC is staffed mostly by first degree and DALC diploma holders!

The hapless victims of this scam are able to get a degree in a few months from un accredited universities such as Irish International and European Business School _cambridge which are all run by the same people and accredited by the dubious Quality Assurance Commission. For this, they part with lots of money. As much as 4500 sterling. Do the math and see why Oborah can afford to drive the most expensive cars around.

Time this came to an end. It won't end by itself because there are strong forces against this. Namely:

1.Oborah-he has the money to corrupt his way out of many tight situations.


2. The commission of higher Education is playing blind because one of the deputy commissioners is protecting DALC. JOEL MBERIA. His son works at DALC by the way.


3. The Standard media group is DALC's no 1 fan. Do not waste your time talking to them, they are not interested in your stories as long as you are against DALC. You are dreaming if you are waiting for Mohamed Ali to do his Jicho Pevu thing on Oborah!!


4. DALC students who believe that DALC system is a chance for them to get a quick diploma, get a job and move on with life. They do not want people questioning their UK qualifications.
For starters, we would like Oborah to face justice for:
  • Fraud
  • Misrepresentation
  • Tax Evasion
  • Money Laundering

Enough has been had. Time to bring action upon DALC. All those in favour say aye!

IN CASE YOU FORGOT, OBORAH'S LIES IN HIS OWN WORDS


(double click on the image)


THE bizzare summary of Oborah's illustrious life has been documented although it has been impossible to verify the claims as they were made by the dirty proffessor. I have found the thingy he printed out on his graduation day where he makes all sorts of claims and even manages to pose with his primary school headmaster for effect.

Still I have never understood why Oborah has never been photographed with other real academics.

DALC NEW PERFORMANCE CONTRACT

LECTURES ARE VOWING TO TEACH HALF ONCE THIS NEW PAYMENT PLAN IS INTRODUCED AT DALC. Well, we have the most lopsided contract that can only have been drafted by DALCs greedy mastermind Oborah. IN THIS CONTRACT, HE WARNS YOU AGAINST LEAVING WITHOUT NOTICE AND THREATENS TO USE ALL (LEGAL or OTHERWISE) MEANS NECESSARY TO RECOVER HIS LOSES INCASE YOU DECIDE TO LEAVE WITHOUT A MONTHS NOTICE.

Some naive DALC lecturer tells me that he thinks its alright and I almost slap the colour off his face! He doesn't know that Oborah stops paying you the moment you give notice. So anybody who is foolish enough to give a notice will be fired straight away and get nothing!!

In this contract, DALC promises to follow your employer incase you leave without notice. Well, if you a have been brainwashed by Oborah then you must feel totally imprisoned. You must be thinking where will Igo? What will I do?

IN addition, Oborah can pay you whatever he wants because like the contract says, nobody knows what your real salary is. Its out there with the birds, wind and the sea. They have some figures right there but as we know with Oborah, conning people is his sh*et! In short, he will pay you whatever he feels like. And that is after Faith has done a liposuction off you salary due to the lateness fines or whatever fine she wants to deduct from your salary. Strangely, she still doesn't pay taxes. mmmh. Admin staff are next to be nicked, it will be 1000 for every student you con , which in effect will put the highest paid admin staff operate in 10-15k range.Deuce.

If you think that you cannot leave DALc cos Oborah will follow you at your new job, then you must be pretty close to retarded. How many people would he have to follow?You are what we call a DALCturd. Those who think Oborah is a god of some sort who will walk to your new employer and drag you out back to DALC kicking and screaming.

Who exactly is Oborah? Only fools fall for his scare tactics. The sort of fools we call DALCturds!! See the contract below and see just how desperate Oborah is to hold on to staFF.

DALC SCAm: A SAD DAY FOR DALC LECTURERS

Dear bloggers:


Today 9/10/2009 was truly a sad day for the lecturers. All the lecturers including those often refered to as the role models received only half pay for the month of september. If a lecturer receives 30,000 the lecturer found only 15,000 in their accounts. No explanation was given whatsoever.

For the already frustrated lecturers, this event was a nail on their heads.

The event has several meanings. Oborah is either too stupid to not to reason that frustrated lecturers are a time bomb for his institution. Already some have created email addresses with fake names and the contents from this blog are reaching the students straight on. Some have vowed to confide to their trusted students that DALC is a briefcase institution and the diplomas offered are not even recognized by Commission for Higher Education. Two lecturers(both held with high esteem by the management)are reported to have met somewhere and have vowed to used their close friends at Nation Media Group to publish a very damaging article about DALC and the forth coming fake graduation at U.K. From a reliable source, a letter has been sent to the British High Commission to confirm whether Cambridge and Oxford Association of Managers exist a copy of the same letter was sent to permanent secretary ministry of education. While Oborah may think that he is indeed smart, he should question himself why registration is dwidling.

The other angle to the whole story is that Oborah has realized that he is duplicating roles by hiring both Wachuka and Opondo. Wachuka is currently a hot juicy cake for Oborah. Naive, inexperienced and a coward who cannot challenge Oborah. On the other side Opondo is the finance manger who cannot touch a single coin from Oborah beyond his pay. When he was coming to DALC, he probably had the big picture of an institution where he would control millions of shillings. Unfortunately, he has been reduced to a clerical officer with duties that Oborahs son can perform so well. He may have been promised heaven but indeed, heaven and hell all start with the same letter 'H' just like Humphrey Oborah. During the interviews Oborah promises heaven, after the interview hell befalls the new employee. Ask Erick what hell and heaven is at DALC, Heaven was being interviewed and being promised honey, hell started with the entry of Wachuka and just like any other employee, this month he was paid half his salary and as late as the lecturers.

Depending on how Erick handles the pay issue, he may lose his job. If iwere him, I would not even discuss it with Oborah. I would keep quiet and let the lecturers learn a lesson for being part of the fraud. The other option would be for him to voluntarily resign. If it is indeed true that he has the qualifications Oborah posted on DALC website, then he should just look for another job. If not so, he could just be like the lecturers at DALC who have diploma qualifications and have the courage to teach students with degrees and cheat them that they are doing genuine things.

My advice to the lecturers would be: Just quit. Alternatively , stay and fight Oborah from within his institution. Ground it proper. Influence your students to hate the institution. The other alternative ask for a press conference and report Oborah to the whole world.

Anyway, fear is the beginning of failure. If you always fear to act, fear acts on you and you become a robot.

Soory DALC lecturers. I really sympathize with you.

DALC SCAM: NOW OBORAH SELLS LAPTOPS


Humphrey Oborah is selling laptops. He is selling these to students after realising that providing computers is way too expensive and there is money to be made by selling laptops to students and allowing them to pay in installments. That is the first time a college head has done that.

However, we are not the usual DALC fools who applaud Oborah even when he promises sunshine and farts in a jar. He has cleverly failed to tell people what kind of laptop they will be getting. It is by design that there is no information on the:
  • Brand
  • Processor Speed
  • RAM
  • Hard Drive capacity
  • Optical Media
He has gone the whole grandeur hog and promised that students can use the laptops to study now that we have the optic fibre. Tapping into the broadband craze when its still on. Everybody is bound to say "I want one of those laptops so I can utilise that optic fibre the government keeps talking about.

Humphrey Peter Oborah, you are an excellent opportunist.

We know that he fails to mention the real information on the laptops because they are not going to competitively priced. He doesn't want students to rush and compare the specs of the DALC laptops and find that they are at-least 15,000 more expensive than they would be at Davetech.

However, his plan has one major flaw. IRD aka infrared ports on laptops are now obsolete and anybody selling you these could also give you some compact cassettes in the deal because the infrared technology is dead. Is this the 22nd century DALC keeps on droning about.

Infact Ifrared is so obsolete that the Wikipedia page is nothing more than a miserable paragraph that says...

An infrared port is a port that can send and receive data using infrared light, usually using the IrDA protocol. Infrared ports were once common on laptop computers, PDAs, and cell phones, but are being displaced by RF technologies, such as Bluetooth. They are still common in remote controllers of various home and office equipment, such as televisions, DVD players, amplifiers et
So, why is DALC selling its students laptops that come with obsolete technology. In this day and age, wireless technologies that DALC should be speaking of are:
  • WIMAX
  • BLUETOOTH
  • WIFI
FORGET THE INTERACTIVE LECTURES THING BECAUSE OBORAH IS USING THAT TO MARKET HIS LAPTOPS. AFTER ALL IRD CANNOT SUPPORT INTERACTIVE LECTURES!!

SEE THE PROFESSORS NOTICE BELOW.
Date Posted: 2009-09-16
Title: LAPTOPS AND INTERRACTIVE LECTURES

I had mentioned earlier that current desktop computers will be recalled by end of September 2009 and that students should have laptops with "webcam" facility by this date. We are almost there.

Laptops have infrared ports that are able to communicate through wireless setups hence will enable students to have internet access in the classrooms. This will not only provide wider internet access but will also enable lectures to take place real time from UK or other DALC campuses. With optic fibre, we are just best placed to go having geared up for the last 2 years.

In other words, a good lecturer in Mombasa, will be able to teach all students, at a given time, even if they are as far away as Kitale. You can also have direct lectures from UK. How about that?

I know laptops will require some money to purcahse and I do also know the economic hardships parents and self-sponsored students face. I have made arrangements to ensure that the laptops are provided but students pay in installments later. This scheme will be launched next week alongside other VERY IMPORTANT fees management schemes. The laptops will be yours and you must be knowing that they will help you do a lot of other things.

May I reiterate the fact that DALC is an academic insitution keen on innovation rather than rudimentary and traditional education. In this regard, we will not hesititae to introduce and foster new concepts when the benefits far out-weigh the rigours of fixed traditions.

I would like all students to report to their CMs by 24th Sept. and let us know if they already have these laptops or if they would like the installemts arrangement.

You can also click from your portal and confirm whether, you have the laptops or would like the installments scheme.

Please adhere to this deeadline as we would like to move DALC to the next level by October 2009.

SO WHO WANTS AN OLDISH LAPTOP WITH INFRARED? EVEN MOBILE PHONES STOPPED USING INFRARED AGES AGO. HA!

DALC SCAM: STUDENTS OPEN LETTER TO TUTORS

A DALC student has written a strongly worded letter to THE lecturers. Poor souls the lecturers- but then aren't they all par of the con! Teaching courses they did not even study?

The letter below.

Dear lecturers at DALC;

It is so sad that you have to endure all these things just to put bread on the table. As Ringera was resigning yesterday, he quoted the book of ecclesiastiEs. There is time for everything.Time to cry and time to laugh. Time to be born and time to die.

Now, it is your time. Time to beg the students to upload assignments and projects, time to beg them to be punctual. Time to beg Wachuka to relax her rules, time to beg Oborah to pay you. OOOOOOOh, yes..................its time to wait for your salry until you faint, yes its time to talk nicely to the students, yes OOOOOOOOOh yes, its time.Its time to lose weight, ooh yes, its time.

Time to look at yourself and hate yourself, time to hate yourself for having misguided students that they were doing sincere courses from Cambridge and Oxford. Time to pay for your sins for having taught in modulles you are not even qualified to teach, ooooh yes, its time to beg students to upload projects for you to mark, when you know too well you have never written any project yourself and the first project you have seen are the ones done by students at DALC. OOOOH yes. It is pay back time.

Anyway, my dear lectures. Just kneel down and pray. Ask for Gods forgiveness, for you are also part of Oborahs DALC fraud. Repent all your sins and GOd will give you another job.

Do you remember this song that would be sang on KBC radio very early in the morning.....someni vijana, mwisho wa kusoma utapata kazi nzuri......oborah atakuwa na DALC na atakuajiri.........someni vijana...mwisho wa kusoma, utapata kazi nzuri.

OBORAH IS THE MAN YOUR MOTHER WARNED YOU ABOUT. F**K
OFFFFDFFFFFFFFFFFF

DALC SCAM: VILLYFYING THE DIPLOMA



There has been a big debate in the recent past on the nature of some academic qualifications that are offered at out public universities. Many have raised a point of concern on the school based programs. Even the lecturers employed to teach courses in these programs will tell you that the quality of the students is unbelievably low and the library staff will openly tell you that school based students generally avoid books and stick to their manuals.


The jury is out there on the worthiness of the school based degrees but the truth is that not all people are destined to get degrees. Some will suffice with a diploma. Some will do with a certificate and some will be successful without ever going to college like Branson or Mwangi who is building yet another flat block along Jogoo Road.


The market has put a premium on papers and DALC has shamelessly milked this by;


a) Claiming that certificates are meaningless without recognition

b) Claiming that certificates are useless

c) Projecting that certificates are going to become obsolete in the near future

d)Flaunting the fact that the certificates come from the UK


DALC has successfully combined several tactics to make sure that people hungry for Diploma's quench their thirst at DALC. At DALC Education, a diploma can take a short time such as 6 months.

AsK a Kenya Polytechnic fellow to complete a diploma in 6 months and he will think you are mad. The truth is that Diploma's are really not that short. Do not believe DALC's lies especially when Oborah says;


· These days , education has changed and people are focusing and specialising

· Kenya Poly are using old systems from the colonial era

· The African Education system has been left behind, that is why we lag in development

· Why do you need to spend 3 years to do a diploma?

· DALC takes shorter because it is 22nd century education

· bla bla bla





What DALC is doing is making diplomas worthless by putting one Business Administration diploma holder from a national polytechnic on the same platform with its dubious CAM/OXIM diploma holders. The people who go through the polys get past a rigorous system, while DALC's advanced 22nd century system takes you only 6 months. Never mind that you have lessons that are 2 hours long twice a week.


Diplomas have never been so easy to get. If you get an E in your KCSE, go to DALC. They will put you through their accelerated bridging course that should take you 3 months. After that, they will find your talent which will always lead you to starting a diploma in business, computing or education. 6 months down the road you have a shiny new diploma. The Kenya Poly student on the other hand, will be getting through his first year. Tell me, who would you hire?


We have students going through the Diplomas so fast, that a fellow who got a C mean grade gets an advanced diploma (insert course here) in a record 6 months. Take note that this is the CAM/OXIM advanced diploma. From C plain to advanced diploma inn just 6 months. If this is not milling diplomas, tell me what is. During the 6 months, the student will have researched and compiled 10 case studies and cover the syllabus (which is probably downloaded from some website). That is one hell of a shortcut that will definitely appeal to greedy Kenyans looking for a quick way to get quick diplomas.


As you are all aware, DALC promises its diploma holders UPGRADES to degrees to ensure that they take every cent from you in the whole process and leave you with a bunch of worthless diplomas that have non existent UK addresses. That my friends, is how DALC is soiling the diploma by giving it to every Humphrey, Peter, and Faith as long as they have the money to pay the school fees. After all, Oborah likes to say that failing your KCSE does not mean you are stupid. He is some sort of miracle worker who makes a D- holder achieve a Diploma with distinction in just a quick 6 months.



Visit a DALC centre and ask the funny people at the front desk.

DALC SCAM:WHO DOES THE CHE WORK FOR?


WHO DOES THE CHE WORK FOR?


Have you ever wondered why this commission never takes any action whenever people are getting conned off their money by academic rogues like Humphrey Oborah?


Where was the CHE when hundreds of Kenyans studied for sham degrees with the bogus Newport University? Remember how Wisemen Trainers used to advertise in the Sunday Newspapers? Where was the CHE? The Commission only showed up when people were set to graduate and said that Newport was dubious! They did nothing when people were getting scammed by the epically named "WISEMEN TRAINERS".


To rub salt into the eyes of those who were conned, they have listed the same college in the CHE website as one of those that is recognised to offer diplomas. In my book, such a college should have been closed down and the owners locked up for a long long time! But not with the CHE, I guess they punished the WISEMEN in their own out of court way, they then wagged a finger here and there and probably had some roast meat together with the wisemen.


Why for example, has CHE never taken any concrete action on DALC? We have copies of letters that victims of DALC have written to the CHE Kenya and these have not been acted on. CHE continues to pour the vinegar of arrogance on the wounds of Kenyans who have been mauled at DALC by claiming that its role is merely advisory. Would that explain why CHE commissioners always attend DALC graduations where they sit alongside well known international conmen such as Sandhu and Kempe? Is that an advisory role too?


We know for sure that one commissioner known as jOEL mBERIA has been pocketed by DALC's kingpin Oborah and always appears in DAlc ceremonies and was a guest when Oborah was made a prof by the dubious WIDU. A commissioner of the CHE was present when a Kenyan conman was made a professor by a diploma mill!! We have video clips and pictures of jOEL mBERIA. He is the DALC mascot whose role is to show Kenyans how well recognised DALC is!


jOEL mBERIA DURING DALC GRADUATION.



The same jOEL mBERIA has immensely benefited from DALC's ill gotten money as his son Mugambi is an employee of DALC. He works at the educational institution that has been reported to CHE numerous times. Conflict of interest? It is certainly more than that as Mugambi is novice in his job and would have alot of trouble putting together a web page in php or setting up LAN despite working in the IT department. Word has it that Mugambi is watching jOEL mBERIA'S business.


MY HYPOTHESIS IS THAT jOEL mBERIA in this case is Oborah's partner. His role is to make sure that CHE never closes DALC or makes too much trouble for Oborah. That his why his incompetent son Mugambi is employed and paid 45,000 by DALC where he apparently achieves much at doing nothing. Mugambi's role is simply to keep a tabs on the going ons at DALC and report back to daddy who incidentally works at CHE.


jOEL mBERIA INSPECTING DALC JUST BEFORE DALC GOT THE ACCREDITATION FROM CHE




Let the facts be laid out in the open so that when CHE finally says that DALC's courses are "fishy", we will remind them that jOEL mBERIA has never missed a DALC event, his son works at DALC and that the CHE commissioner was a honoured guest when the European diploma mill WIDU awarded Kenya's educational conman a Professorship.


SO WHO DOES THE CHE REALLY WORK FOR?


KENYANS OR THE EDUCATIONAL CONMEN THAT ARE SPROUTING ALL OVER?
