Five Reasons Why You Shouldn't Attend A Public University by Nobody: 1:07pm On Dec 31, 2017 |
A Counter Thread! Incredibly Poor Quality of Education Public Universities in Nigeria undeniably have the poorest quality of education. From too large classes with poor teaching aids to very poorly equipped laboratories to non existent academic support-Public Universities in Nigeria are the exact definition of HOW NOT TO RUN A UNIVERSITY. In comparison private universities have smaller classes-which gives lecturers the ability to teach, impact and follow up Knowledge transfer. Also According to former NUC President, Peter Okebukola Covenant University has the highest per capita investment having spent 70 billion on 13,000 graduates as at 2013. According to NUC, about 40% of Equipment in ABUAD Mechatronics Dept are not present in any other public University. Also the President of Biotechnology Society of Nigeria also commented that Covenant university has the best Biology(Molecular Bio lab) in all of Nigeria. Public Universities aid Criminality Who doesn't know that Lautech is the Den of Internet Fraudsters? Public Universities generally aid all sorts of vices that are never found in Private Universities e.g Cultism, Cyber fraud, Sexual Assault etc. In contrast Private Universities are the true certifiers of "Character and Learning" - Students are monitored closely and there are huge consequences to erring which serves as deterrence to possible future offenders. Also 99% of the Corrupt politicians in public service today graduated from public universities and started their criminality way from School. Have you heard of claims of OAU SUG looting association funds? Have you ever heard Covenant, Landmark and Abuad SUG loot anything even though they equally handle millions? Poor Academic Support Students of Public Schools are discouraged from succeeding in life - they are taught not to aspire for the best and if they do they are cut down. Many public universities take glory in depriving students of their deserved grades even though foreign universities like imperial college graduates about 41% of their graduating class as First class in their last convocation ceremony. This invariably affects the pysche of most graduates of public universities that they develop a sort of Stockholm syndrome where they actually appreciate the abuse and allow it foster where they eventually get to work. They end up believing that Stress is equal to Quality.Today most private universities have about 10% first class rate which is very encouraging. Erratic and Poor Campus Conditions From poor power supply, to poor residential arrangement to careless citing of Academic infrastructure. Public Universities are once again the way not to run a Universities. Many public universities house people on campuses like feral rats. Much of their residences are not fit for criminals in saner climes. Their libraries are usually deficit of good books and the ones available are usually torn. Unstable Academic Calander The only thing as unstable as public universities calendar is Nigeria's electricity supply. Public universities are erratic and complicated. If it is not ASUU it is NASU or NAAT or whatever. This is the complete opposite in private universities where staff development is prioritised and the lecturers can teach at their best rather than concentrating on teaching and imparting and not when next to have a show down with govt. 27 Likes 4 Shares

Mirand606:Eleyi brutal gan o Well Covenant university has always been the first University to matriculate students for each new academic sessions in Nigeria for over Five-Ten years now. CU screening was done in June/July this year and when WAEC was released in August/September the admission list came out in same September. The 2017/2018 CU matriculation was done in October 2017 with 40% of total applicants admitted, Of which 90% of total applicants are usually first time jambites of about 15-17 years of age. Babcock, ABUAD and Landmark also did their matriculations in November 2017. That says something crucial about those four universities-they are not waiting for Public University "left overs" and their students were not interested in public universities to begin with. However most other private universities don't get enough students and have to wait till next year when public universities would have bounced a lot of ppl who would then seek Private Unis. So the argument of Ppl going to private universities when they are not able to get into public ones is only relevant to private universities like Samuel adegboyega, lead city, kolaidaisi, Christopher uni, McPherson uni, Acheivers uni and lately Igbinedion. Private Universities like Covenant, AUN, Landmark, ABUAD, Baze, Babcock are known brands who get more than enough applications than they need. I Graduated from Covenant and I would proceed to University of Luxembourg for Masters in Wealth Creation. I would choose Hebron now, again and again forever if I had to do it again.

chiefolododo:Not true at all! Covenant University Architecture Dept admitted about 12 students who had over 300 in jamb, the majority of applicants where between 250-300, Same for Mech, Comp Science, Accounting et al-I had a peek at the records when i went for my Sister's CUSAS( who by the way didn't get in with over 230 in Jamb and 32/60 in CUSAS for a social science course) simply because her WAEC wasn't released at the normal time. She's now in Landmark anyways..... By the way some of the calibre of parents(some in convoys) I saw dropping their kids for CUSAS would get their wards into Unilag with 201 in Jamb. Is it the former VC of Unilag, DG of FRSC, Commissioner of Health of one state in SS or NUC former boss or Obasanjo's close Nephew that would find it hard to enroll their kids into public universities. But well believe what you believe if it makes you happy 38 Likes 3 Shares |

chiefolododo: The year I got into covenant , in my department , the average jamb score was 250, and many that wanted architecture that year and didn't have up to 260 and 45/60 in post UTME had to find some other department or school... Thats why you read the interviews with our best graduating students, learning that they had 300 and above in Jamb. Acceptance fee in CU is paid long before fedral or state schools even start post jamb exams , so its not like they come because they were denied admission somewhere else . Just this year, a course-mate of mines' sibling was denied Archie and computer engineering , was told at the admission office that he needed minimum 280 in jamb to make his BRQ sufficient enough to study those programmes I dont know why you guys get all bitter and boil with rage , jumping into conclusion on matters you have absolutely no idea about... But then again, it only shows the kind of education received . 12 Likes 1 Share |

Mirand606:You are so on point about LAUTECH. From robbery, prostitution, bribery, intimidation, rituals, radicalism to cheating. They have it all. How can a system that forces majority of the students to sort/cheat/cram 'n vomit the higher percentage of an inferior course workload, compare to another one that enforces laws as insignificant as no-phone laws and class attendance? It is obvious the public uni grads are suffering from stockholm syndrome where they get to love and defend their captors. What about mass (in)voluntary initiation into cult groups ? We haven't talked about cohibating oh. I pity people who think attacking private uni will do them good. In Nigeria debates are most times a number game. The number may favour public uni but I can assure you the trend is fast changing. 17 Likes 1 Share |

Statsocial:Lol as in ehn. The President of Uganda's Son just graduated from AUN this year. The man left Makarere uni which is far better ranked than UI on Times Higher and took his Son to AUN. Lol which Public University can attract the son of a foreign president. I heard when Yayah Jammeh of Gambia took a tour of Covenant University the man quickly wrote a letter to Living Faith asking them to come and build in his country. 9 Likes |

Desyner:I dont know where you guys get this ideas from , please please and please , maybe its some private school, not mine like CU, you get 200 in jamb or less? You people need a lot if reorientation especially when making hasty conclusions about matters you have NO idea about, just stay 'talks' like this garbage( no offence ) that you just spilled. Firstly, many students from CU (for example , since thats the only example i can work with , and unlike some people like you, I stick to and talk about what I know about) attended the best and most expensive secondary schools in Nigeria. The likes of Loyola, Presco, Lumen christi, faith academy, Olasore , Jefta (some time , you google them) ... Hence, following the thread , their parents send them to CU, cause they want the best (which they eventually get.) This mentality of jamb score thing should not follow you into new year o. 200 in jamb, such insult 12 Likes 1 Share |
