Who Made Osinbajo A Professor At Unilag? by Francis5: 4:01pm On Jan 27, 2015 |
Who made Osinbajo a Professor at UniLag? He does not seem to possess a terminal degree. So how did he become a professor at UniLag with just an MSc degree? Is that how they award professorships at UniLag or is it quota system professorship to fulfill Awolowo's quota, given his relationship with the later? Could his lack of a PhD degree (yet claiming professor) be the reason he is willing to work under Buhari who is school certificate-less? If Indeed Osinbajo has no PhD, who then are his students; has he as a ''professor'' supervised PhD students in the past (only in Nigeria would a non-PhD ''professor'' supervise PhD students for the purpose of awarding the degree)? I dey laff ohh!!!! 13 Likes |

Another fool just escaped from the gate of hell when our pastor opened the gate with the key he holds. Wole Soyinka has no MSc, he is a African most celebrated Professor. Go and use google, I am not here to lecture you. 62 Likes |

simpleseyi: Yes, I know that both Wole Soyinka and Chinua Achebe do not have PhD degrees. But that was many years ago when Nigeria was undeveloped and when anything goes. Moreover, that was in Literature studies, not a relatively more intellectually tasking discipline such as Law. In contrast, Yemi is a much younger person compared to Wole and Achebe, and all his peers who are professors have PhDs. Can you mention any Nigerian professor of Yemi's age without a PhD? 13 Likes |

He (Yemi) became a Professor of Law in 1990 at the age of 33 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yemi_Osinbajo#Education 1990 was just yesterday (so to speak); could you have become a prof then without a PhD, even in Nigeria? 9 Likes 1 Share |

I hope it's not true that he lacks a PhD. Notwithstanding, a very distinguished scholar in the class of Soyinka & Achebe needs not have a PhD to be ranked a professor. But Yemi obviously falls below the class. This is why some European scholars use Prof (Dr) as their title. PhD is prestigous & earned. You can hardly be stripped of PhD which is recognized anywhere in the world irrespective of where it is obtained. A Prof in LAUTECH may not rank more than a senior lecturer in UI/OAU, but he can't be stripped of his PhD. @OP, a professor with no PhD is not qualified to supervise/examine a PhD candidate in an ideal situation and I doubt if Wole Soyinka ever supervised a PhD student. 10 Likes |

After I had an encounter with one professor Oyedekun at Ibadan few years ago, my respect for professors especially those from the south west diminished. Its like they share professorship with reckless abandon ( just to prove a point) 17 Likes 2 Shares |

simpleseyi:No I do not want to see his certificates. I believe he has them, up to MSc. What I am asking is what did he do to become a professor of law at UniLag in 1990, just after 8 years of completing his MSc and without a PhD. 13 Likes |

The History of Buhari’s Both In Military And Civilian With Photos Larry Diamond is a Senior Research Fellow at the Hoover Institution. He is the author of a forthcoming book, Class, Ethnicity and Democracy in Nigeria: The Failure of the First Nigerian Republic. Currently he is co-editing a multi-authored comparative study of democracy in developing nations. Through the improbable device of a military coup, Nigeria has been delivered from dictatorship. To be sure, the form of government remains a military regime, and almost certainly will for many years to come. In fact, much of the top leadership remains the same: the August 27 coup d’état was engineered by high-ranking officers #SeeMoreHere of Gen.

So with all the propaganda running around, I wondered why nobody had found any "dirt" on OSIBANJO. Surely someone must have been assigned to dig up stuff (because talking about real issues are old school). Since nothing was found on him, Buhari unfortunately had to bare the brunt of the propaganda!!! Well, finally someone is bold enough to ask some REAL QUESTIONS. How did he become a Professor? Hmmmmmm. Can we get this trending to keep us busy for a bit. Soludo's article threatens to force us to talk "boring real issues" so we need something to distract us! Good job OP!! 7 Likes 1 Share |

Honestly, please you people should quit this. There are more pressing issues plaguing our economy, as well as other problems. Whether a professor at UNILAG or not, this isn't a core issue. 1 Like |

simpleseyi:It is true that both Achebe and Soyinka do not have MSc degrees, yet are referred to as professors. But they both have deep global recognition that warranted several foreign universities to make them ''honorary professors''. So while theirs is excusable, what excuse does Osinbajo have to become a prof in 1990 without a PhD? Unless of course he is an ''honorary professor'' at unilag. Lol 7 Likes 1 Share |

manny4life: There is really nothing both GEJ and GMB can do to the economy. They are both incompetent and the Nigerian masses are far too sold to corruption, incompetence and anything-goes for them to ask the critical questions and demand answers. So, in the absence of a credible candidate, let's make the most comic situation we can out of GEJ and GMB: two clowns leading or wanting to lead a country of 170 million in-country clowns. 5 Likes |

Nigerians misuse the word professor. In the US system a professors means any university teacher i.e lecturer Thi is quite different form having tenure or a professorial chair In Nigeria we use the British system to refer to those IN a university chair as Professors. It is NOT a title yo can take home with you as Nigerians often do. If you leave the post you are no longer a Professor simple though friends may call you professor strictly speaking If you are NOT in a chair YOU ARE NOT A PROFESSOR whether you are Soyinka ,Achebe or Einstein I think the issue here is whether he has been a professor at an earlier time . I do not know but usually you require a PhD unless you have an outstanding contribution to the discipline and scholarship The other issue is that of visiting professors This is not a chair ad it is not right for these people to present themselves as Professors and in my view it is dishonest for such people to perpetually present themselves as professors |
