Dr. Beloveth Powerful, whose school is named Havard School UK, has also been sued by the American university of almost the same name. The United Kingdom\u2019s (UK) Milton Keynes Trading Standards department has commenced investigations into the controversy surrounding a Nigerian national, Dr. Tina Beloveth Powerful, who runs a university from a city centre flat in North Third Street in CMK. Dr. Beloveth Powerful, whose school is named Havard School UK, has also been sued by the American university of almost the same name. A spokesman for Trading Standards confirmed that the Nigerian is under investigation but refused to give details. \u201cAs it is an ongoing investigation we cannot comment in detail about it,\u201d he said. Media reports, however, suggest the trading standards investigation may involve false claims on Havard\u2019s website that the school is affiliated to the Institute of Administrative Management. The wording on the school\u2019s website has been changed to read \u201cis to be accredited to.\u201d However, Dr. Beloveth Powerful insists she has not done anything wrong, adding that she was on a \u201cmission from God to help people study.\u201d \u201cI have six degrees myself, two of them from Nigeria where I came from,\u201d she said in a report. \u201cI transformed my life and God has given me power to transform others\u2019.\u201d The Nigerian claimed she is not aware of the trading standards investigations into Havard. America\u2019s Harvard University files suit Dr. Powerful, whose school is named Havard School of Management and Technology UK, is also being sued by Harvard University of the US. The American university, which name differs from Dr. Powerful\u2019s institution by just a letter, is suing for alleged trademark infringement. But Dr Powerful is counter-claiming for \u00a32 million \u2013 the money, she says, she has spent so far on setting up her school. \u201cA good name is better than silver and gold,\u201d she said. \u201cHaving said that, we are telling them we want to step aside but we have spent money in advertising, marketing and productions.\u201d The 46-year-old Nigerian also denied claims she caused academic confusion by calling her school Havard, explaining that the name \u2018Havard\u2019 was from her grandfather. \u201cMy paternal grandfather\u2019s first name was Havard. I chose to immortalise his name. I never thought about Harvard,\u201d she said.
