Fortunately, it's very difficult to stop people in countries with
poorly functioning higher education systems from enrolling online at
universities based in other countries.  So, for example, if the
regulations in Nigeria say that one needs a $1.3 million USD bank
guarantee and a hundred hectares of land to start a new institution
there, one can simply start one in a friendlier locale instead and
market it across the border.

As you can imagine from this, no, the rear guard is not for me. :-)
