well, we keep complaining of the rot in the education sector, we keep complaining about how students are failing ssce at an alarming rate, yet the number of 1st class graduates in our institutions keep increasing exponentially. is it that these students are now working harder/brighter than the previous generations, or is it just an unhealthy competition among schools to make their products more marketable especially with the advent of private unis. 1 Like |

musiwa14: it is not the population, we are talking about... But the population of graduate compare to other nigeria universities. It means they are just graduating anybody at UNN with first class..... They are just producing more quantity than quality. Majority of the graduates of UNN are under achievers in their occupations and professions. The men are good salary earners and the women are best performers in the bedroom and not the boardroom. Please, give me a list of just 1000 UNN graduates making waves in Nigeria and abroad? |

Afam4eva:I am one of the graduating students of UNN. I attended the convocation ceremony on friday. The huge population that was witnessed at the occasion was enormous, to say the least. China is even less populated than what we experienced that day. Coming to the quoted figures, there is no error or hyper-inflation in the results. I'm going to give you a rundown of the make-up of the figure. First, the University of Nigeria is an all-round university that offers virtually all the courses you can think of in Nigeria, starting from medicine, engineering, law, social sciences, physical sciences, biological sciences, agricultural sciences, arts, veterinary medicine and what have you. By virtue of this fact, the innumerable individual courses being offered attracts so many fresh undergraduates to fill up these spaces, thus making the undergraduate intake very high. Don't forget that UNN has one of the highest top three admission quotas for universities in Nigeria. Second, it has five campuses spread over four states in Nigeria - Nsukka campus, Enugu campus, Aba campus, Nwafor Orizu college of education Nsugbe Anambra, and Alvan Ikoku college of education, Owerri Imo state. UNICAL was formerly a campus of UNN until it later became a full fledged university of its own. The Nsukka campus alone is very enormous in size. The total undergraduate figures of these five campuses alone when put together exceeds 40,000. This accounts for contributing to the large number of graduating students for this year. The graduating figures from Nsukka and Enugu campuses alone should circle close to 10,000. Third, a few percentage of the number comes from overstays in the school. Fourth, past graduated medical and pharmacy students of two years ago till present were called back and instructed to participate in the convocation ceremony of this year. They all paid the convocation fee of N10,000. It came as a surprise to them given that medical and pharmacy students did not use to participate in convocation ceremonies in the past. They only had oath taking ceremonies and it ended there. All these accounts for the high graduating number this year. And this trend is expected to continue. 2 Likes |

musiwa14: there will say is igbo bashing.. but if i was the president, and i wanted to pick a VC from the east, i would have picked the VC of Enugu state university of technology who got kidnap because i look at the school. and i notice that during the period he was VC, he upgraded the school facilities. It shows he has a heart for what he does .. and not prof Nedo who did little to nothing for UNN as VC.. so it is not about Igbo bashing..i think ur 'bashing' is even on rapid fire 'cos prof. Nebo is the best VC UNN ever had. I say this because i spent 4yrs under his vice chancerllorship. He changed everything and saved the reputation of the school. Because of nebo, UNN has regained its stance as arguably the best uni in naija. Don't even talk abt uniben (i'm getn an MSc thr as i write), unn makes it look like 'Asa nnentu high school'. I don't know about all these figures vanguard threw up but, unn/unec has more than 22 halls of residence, more than 10 faculties plus schools of med,vet. Med and law. Its a huge school mate! BTW, ur english sef bad no be small. It's wrong also to use the ability to speak a certain language as a yard stick to measure one's intelligence. The best researcher i'v ever worked with, speaks and writes a very bad english. . .even worse than urs but that doesnt make him any less intelligent. Enough said. 1 Like |

Results in which most of them can never defend ! No wonder the NYSC Coordinators keeps shouting at NYSC camps that most of them can not even express themselves not to talk of defending their results. They embarrass NYSC at the place of primary assignments. And even with the 116 1st class graduates, where is UNN in Africa University ranking ? lol. Don't be deceived. Most of them cant defend it. If that is how 1st is been obtained. Our grandpa and dads should all have 1st class because they had sound and disciplined education. Example is Tafawa Balewa on his recent post when he visited USA, Listen to a sound and solid speech as at 1963 or so......Check out GEJ speech on the latest interview with the CNN journalist. You would clearly identify the DEGREE of then and now. |

musiwa14: why are you telling lies.. I have look at the university, when one of the prof, does not know how to speak english well... You notice I complain when Goodluck appointed Prof Nebo.. I complain because I believe he lack the capability to handle the set position and the fact is , I look at the University facilitics and compare it with the rest of Nigeria. I notice, it looks like they have been stealing all the money sent to that university.And you're yabbing someone else's English? When you cannot string together one or two correct English sentences?

Wow...seriously I have to laugh at the way some people, almost instantly try to undermine anything seemingly good coming from Igbo land. It went from.. 1)....numbers must be wrong (perhaps understandable) 2) comparisons with other universities to make UNN seem inforior....(but only the ones located in South Western Nigeria of course) 3)Accusations of stolen/embezzled money....yet again in comparison to selected universities located in SW Nigeria..... I can't tell you how amusing it is for me to watch this unfold, on time and like clockwork on Nairaland. Why do some people have such a stiff neck, when it comes to seemingly positive news, coming from a region other than their own? For the students that earned a 1st class degree from UNN....well done! 10 Likes |

musiwa14: look at the picture of UNN, really make me want to weep that people could steal this way.All your posts are deeply off-point. What exactly are you even trying to say? You jump from this to that, from UNN having a problem to Igbo bashing. You then start bringing up UIlorin, and trying to compare it with UNN. By the way, can you compare that school with UNN? Definitely you can't. Internationally, UNN is well known. The school is part of the best schools in the world listed in the databases of US/UK schools. When I was applying for my masters, I never had any problem locating my UG university meanwhile many Nigerian universities are terribly missing in those lists! UI included! Infact I never saw the name of UNN missing in all the websites of the US/UK universities I checked out during my masters application. What the heck are you telling me about?! Please, get that useless tribalistic mentality off your head. UI cannot be compared to UNN. What about the who is who in this country who are graduates of this University? Chinua Achebe, Chimamanda Adichie, Charles Soludo, Dora Akunyili, etc. You bring UIlorin forward yet look at the terrible command of English you have. Is that the Uilorin 'tough stuff' training you underwent you're trying to show off? All over Nigeria, UNN graduates do very well. They are hardly never-do-wells. I am one of them. Show me one successful UIlorin graduate and I'll show you 10 very successful people from UNN. By the time you're done with the rigorous 4-/5-year training in UNN, your best is brought out. Come and see for yourself. I bet you've never left southwest before to see other parts of Nigeria, while you sit behind the computer, obviously oblivious of these facts, typing thrash and falsities. You openly condemn Prof. Nebo as having done nothing for UNN, yet Goodluck nominated him. That shows your high level of crass ignorance! How would you even know what's happening in the SE when you've never left your underdeveloped village in the south west before? And with this little access to the internet and nairaland you managed to get, you come up here spreading your ignorance and making mockery of yourself. Ignoramus. 8 Likes |

LASU Turns Out 41 First Class Graduates Tweet Tweet 0 Thu, 07/06/2012 - 12:18am | TAIWO OGUNMOLA News Education Lagos State University (LASU), Ojo, is set to turn out 41 first class graduates out of 22,035 students in its 2012 convocation ceremony. The university’s vice-chancellor, Prof. Oladapo Obafunwa disclosed this on Wednesday at a press conference to mark the commencement of the ceremony. Obafunwa explained that this year’s convocation would bring both full and part-time graduates of 2008/2009, 2009/2010 and 2010/2011 together. The VC in his analysis said a total of 41 students will be awarded First Class certificates while 2,832 made the Second Class (upper division) list. A total number of 14,922, 4,100 and 140 others will be awarded with Second Class (lower division), Third Class and Pass qualifications respectively. About 40 of the total figure shall bag their PhD certificates. Meanwhile, as part of activities to mark the ceremony, Coconut Breaking Festival has been scheduled to take place at the entrance of Badagry town on Monday, June 11, and will be followed by the stage adaptation of Fred Agbeyegbe’s “The King Must Dance Unclad” by the university’s Department of Theatre Arts and Music troupe. On Monday also, the director general, Centre for Black and African Arts and Civilisation (CBAAC), Prof. Tunde Babawale, will be the guest lecturer at the convocation lecture. The theme for this year’s lecture is “Reflections on Culture, Democracy And The Quest For A New Era,” which will take place at the institution’s main campus. There will be an award of diploma and first degree certificates while the postgraduate category will receive theirs on Thursday, June 14. Speaking on the state of the university, Obafunwa thanked all the workers on the campus and their unions for what he described as the ongoing repositioning efforts of a once battered university. He thanked the Lagos State government for its efforts to reclaim the school’s lost glory. The vice chancellor added that as part of measures adopted to change the face of the institution, certificates will be collected by any of the graduates who may have fulfilled all laid down procedures immediately after convocation. So insummary if lasu can graduate just 41st first class out of over 25000 graduating student ( d higest in the history of the sch |
