My kids must study abroad God willing. But then again, one begins to wonder what is wrong with Nigeria and Nigerians. Why can't we have structures like this and MAINTAIN them. The scraps we have here keeps deteriorating with no one to maintain them. Its truly a sad state in Nigeria.

fa fa fa fa foul.


explain yourself plz, maybe I'll agree with you.

Government funds too many schools.

Fact is....if you want first class...you pay for first class.

And right now...thanks to the drop in oil money....we do not have the cash for first class...oreven third class.

Yes I know...corruption.....but a good university with all those facilities you see.....they are made possible by 1) High fees 2) Universities over there being run as private concerns 3) High taxes. and 4) Situated in countries with diversified economies. If you want that kind of class....better be prepared to pay for it.Even if we eradicate corruption tomorrow....the govt does not have N3 trillion or even the N10 trillion needed for our universities.

And before you call me harsh.....I know.I hate what I have just said.If I had my way....students will pay N10000 per annum.But it is because they pay that amount of money....that we can not have high class facilities. (And during my parents time...they had everything. Also....the population of university students in Nigeria back then was less than the population of students in ABU or UI today.).

But overall....you are paying the price for living in a resource dependent economy. That is why Buhari better get us off oil dependency....or he gets out by 2019.Oil is a curse.

some universities were built before the oil boom though.


maybe the recent ones can be privatized, if at all.

but I remember it sha.
The library has two wings, north and south, with an entrance each. They are linked with three walkways. The entrance of the north wing faces the Faculty of Education, but is no longer being used. The south wing which faces the Motion Ground, is the main entrance. The dome is in the north wing.

Before the oil boom...we were earning lots of money from agriculture.

(ABU was built with agric money for example.)

Also,some universities took over existing facilities. (ABU took over NCAST,Zaria,IAR Zaria...and severalothers).

But most importantly.....the number of students entering unviersity was few. (Back then if you wanted to enter university....1) You had to pass O level...and at a certain level. No such thing as five credits). 2) Passing O level qulaifed you for two extra years in secondary school....A level...which you had to pass very well to enter university. ). By 1979...we just had 80000univeristy students....and six universities...with 3 in the pipeline. Now we have over 2million university students...with 50 govt owned universities (I have not mentioned poly).

So...you see the problem.

And all those universities need money.

World class universities like UCLA have budgets of $100BN (100 billion dollars). LASU has $55million. Why won't UCLA have world class...while LASU cannot even do third class research?

I know...corruption.Our universities have a lot of corruption.But even if we eradicate it....the only road to world class facilties is by what I ahve just outlined. And we have to also diversify. We have no choice.

OAU was also built with agric money, likewise most of the older universities.

50 universities shouldn't be too much to maintain, ideally.

2 million students though. Hope there's a corresponding number of jobs. . . .. . . .

What weather? We don't have extreme weathers as some of these places yet, they maintain their buildings.
In my opinion, we lack responsibility and accountability.

the weather overseas is more conducive to building maintenance compared to the tropics. (This same factor would make the infrastructure less capital intensive).

unless they use materials which are resistant to humidity, weathering and the likes, this will always be a problem.


if somewhere is hot throughout the year, compared to areas which have more varied seasons, it plays a role in infrastructural hardiness.

lack of responsibility, etc is easier sometimes because of geography.
