Abstract
This article reviews the literature on plagiarism is a growing problem for Colleges, Institutes, Universities and every Academic work especially in higher education. Many people think of plagiarism as copying another’s work, or borrowing someone else’s original ideas but terms like copying and borrowing can cover the sincerity of the offense. In other words, plagiarism is an act of hoax; basically it involves stealing someone else’s work. Moral rights are infringed when the author of a work is not given due acknowledgement by means of clear quotations and clear acknowledgements giving details of the publication concerned. Researchers need to be aware of the concept of self-plagiarism and self-citation and how to avoid it.
