Hmmm....@Okija juju's pics didn't do justice to the environment. It would have been better if he walked round taking the pics.

I remember how we used to race on Road 1 at night......clocking 160km/h in my friend's BMW 525 or racing from new-buka to the staff quarters after rounds of beer. The roads were soo good.

I read in "University of Ife, Ten Years After" written by our own Professor S. A. Akintoye in 1972, to mark the university's 10th anniversary. In the book, he said after Ariah Sharon (AYM) had designed the campus, the Western Region Government told Sharon to modify his plan due to financial contraints on the part of the government, following the fall in the price of cocoa (the government's major cash earner) in world market. Sharon hesitated but later yielded.
If the the design of the school had not been modified, I imagine how impressive it would have been today.

Awo Zoo (coffee room) to be specific. However, upon the locking of that place, students continued the flogging popularly known as SMS and MMS in Awo dining hall (café). I stopped watching them when a security man that tried to apprehend Saburi was apprehend by students and given the beating of his life.

have they locked Awo coffee room?

That is teh venue of Maximum Shi Shi?

If you ever witness maximum shishi being meted on someone, you will never steal 1 kobo or associate with cultism.

Africa, not sure.

But Nigeria, none. (Even the private unis may only have better facilities, none comes close to Ife in terms of structure.

shymexx: And it would be nice if people can create threads for colonial/missionaries' secondary schools in Nigeria. I'll like to see what some of the schools look like especially the ones in Lagos and Ibadan.



I have the recent Pictures of Okrika Grammar School in Port-Harcourt..




I took em the day I took my Grandfather to see the school which he attended.. I Grandfather literally cried and said:: 'NO!! This cant be my Okrika Grammar School..' Most of those schools are dead.

These pictures bring tears and smiles. I was in Ife for 5 years and got so thrilled that I almost never went on break during vacations and strikes (trust me, there were many of them). Thank God for the strengths and inspirations I received from lecturers and students back then. Most importantly, what I learnt from outside the classrooms was at least triple of what I learnt in classrooms. I studied Mathematics (White House made life very interesting) and graduated with First Class Honours. I enjoyed the bliss and the babes. Of the Greatest Ife!!!

If you go to Ife and your life is triangular - Hostel, Lecture Theatres, Church/Mosques, you're finished. You will regret when you're out. You need to learn as much as possible. Learn French, Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba. Learn photography/media. Learn driving. Learn everything you can possibly learn. If you can afford it, party/club small. Don't forget the babes in Moremi (Grade A) and the JJCs in Moz (sharwama and suya babes lawon yen).

Layeni showed us pepper.

Gagzee,na so e be o. Many Nigerian universities are full of d*vilish lecturers who don't care about education. As far as they are concern,it's just another government office where they hope to flex their muscle and make some money.

ACM10:

Your comment is not true. I don't know why you should bring in UNN into your opening statement. Unknowingly you have set tone for toxic exchange here. I don't know when you visited UNN last. I visited UNN early this year during their convocation. Fortunately, I took some pictures which I still have with me. But I wont post it here, because I want sanity to reign on this thread. I wouldn't want it to degenerate to contest between schools. UNN has undergone massive facelift starting from the tenure of Prof Nebo and continued to the present regime of Prof. Barth Okolo. It is almost unrecognizable from my undergraduate years. I encourage you to visit UNN during your free time and have a look.
on point. okija when last did you visit UNN?

Neatness and Beauty don't mean the same thing. Btw, i've been to UI and it doesn't look as good as OAU.

Btw, which government built OAU?

It was being built by Old Western Govt . Designed (planned) by Chief Obafemi Awolowo before independence and established by Sir Samuel Akintola the then Premier of the region after Awolowo in 1962 making Western region to have 3 universities then while other regions had one each.The list then is -University of Ibadan, University of Ife(now Obafemi Awolowo University Ile Ife) and University Of Lagos, others are University of Nigeria Nsukka( East) and Amodu Bello University, Zaria (North). Chief Awolowo was also the first Chancellor (not vice chancellor ooooo, before you misquote me). It was taken over by Federal govt later around 1977/1978(I am not sure but I know it was under Gen Obasanjo that all the regional and state universities were taken over)

True that! And they don't have massive structures like Ife's, at least the ones I've seen.

I was in UNN a long time ago..

I dont know when I would Visit Enugu again, but be sure you will see pictures on my next Visit. My Mother Graduated from UNN. Infact, she grew up on campus as her Dad also worked for UNN. I know UNN is a classic school, but OAU again, blew me away. I didnt intend to cause any stir up, I was only naming Federal institutions I had entered before.

My next Target will be University of Ibadan.. grin

So the plan is simple:

Get some of my hommies together for a weekend in Ibadan.. Take off on Friday, Pictures on Saturday.. Groove away Saturday night with Kemi, Shade, Funke, Temi, Bimbo, Tolu & Bola.. Return to Gidi on Sunday.. grin grin Hopefully, 9 months later, I wouldnt have Ibadan Babymama drama.. grin

This should be before Christmas... grin

delors: Thanks okija. U are the man! I thought u only took pictures of shrines but u just blew my mind.
I can see faculties of Law, Admin, Health sciences, Arts theatre etc in there. Great work. Some other majestic buildings too would have blown your mind like the Amphitheatre. You should have checked out Spider building, Ajose theatre, Archy studio and co. If u checked Admin basement you would have fallen in love with the architecture as well.
Great work pal.

You blew my mind with that Admin Faculty pictures. That admin was my faculty....
Not hyped but was actually declared Africa's Most beautiful campus...
