Contrary to widespread reports, and in further confirmation
of its academic excellence and intellectual supremacy over
and above other Universities and Institutions of Higher
Learning, our Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, has,
again, been rated the first and the best University in
Nigeria and 19th in Africa.

The latest Webometrics ranking of Nigerian Universities
(August 2014) has Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU)
topping the list. Second on the ranking is Covenant
University Ota while University of Ibadan and University of
Lagos occupy third and fourth places. This time last year,
Obafemi Awolowo University occupied the first position.
Since 2004, the Ranking Web (or Webometrics Ranking) is
published twice a year (data is collected during the first
weeks of January and July for being public at the end of
both months), covering more than 20,000 Higher Education
Institutions worldwide. The motive behind the ranking is to
motivate both institutions and scholars to have a web
presence that reflect accurately their activities.

Reacting, the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Bamitale Omole,
attributed the giant strides recorded by his administration
to the unparalleled research output, administrative acumen,
technical know-how of the academic, administrative and
technical staff of the University, adding that only a focused
leadership, which is the hallmark of his management team,
can produce such a spectacular feat.

Professor Bamitale Omole, then applauded the dedication to
duty of all stakeholders in making sure that the ideals of
the founding fathers of OAU become a reality in its entirety.
He urged the Federal Government not to relent in its efforts
to improve the funding of education, particularly for the
universities, so that the increased penchant for travelling
abroad to undergo academic programmes that could be
taught better by our lecturers here in Nigeria would be a
thing of the past
