i thought Covenant and Igbinedion are the most expensive universities in Nigeria, guess i was wrong.
i hear they pay up to 1.5 Million naira at AAUN (ABTI- AMERICAN UNIVERSITY OF NIGERIA)

nah its less. about 900 grand. just read it in one article like so. tuition is $6,000 dollars per year, not including housing and food
also you dont have to pose at ABTI

@gigitte, whether its 900 grand or 1.5 million, its still the most expensive in Nigeria. I actually read this from Guardian newspapers and it says 1.5 million naira, i thot i was seeing things. Check my source http://www.ngrguardiannews.com/education/article01

I am really worried that education in Nigeria will soon be out of reach for the ordinary man with these crazy tution fees that private universities are charging.

overprivatazation is evil

kk, i also read the guardian, maybe i just missed that number. however education is expensive, if you want the best for your child, you have to plan ahead and cough up the money. abi you think buying laptop is cheap?

that is why the schools are private not public. what we should do is make the schools non-profit and set up an alumni association that will give back to the school, ensuring that costs are kept low.

There are the public schools for those who can't afford the private schools so there's no evil in privatization. You go to the ones you can afford.

na wa o. i don see walelead, waleprof now waledudu

Rich people who would have bribed their way into public universities will now have private universities to go to. THis will free up space for poorer students. It is in the interests of every student for there to be as many universities as possible in the country. All intelligent people are in agreement on this.

"Overprivatization" is responsible for the acceptable level of secondary education in Nigeria. We want more.

@candylips, do you not remember the laws of thermodynamics ? for every Walelead, there are opposite Wales who aim to be equal. The Lead-man still heads the pack

@seun, is it possible to change my username, i wanna be anonymous, a lot of folks know its me once they see walelead.

as 4 mii,fed govt universities are still d best in nigeria.young bright students,fed uni is where they all go,i dont care if abti is d most expensive or not.

@dolly-pie, everyone prefers Federal universities, but not everyone can score 400 in JAMB or know the VC's sister.
So the need to attend private universities

wait ,  what makes federal universities the best. Their days are numbered when the new universities start attracting the best professors in the world and they start creating quality research. or better still attract the best professors from the fed uni now for there students

@walelead&candylips, waledudu(dudu heritage)represents d gr8 black african heritage.as universities,federal uni stil remains d best in terms of lecturers&researches but 4 quality edu give it 2 private uni.

but the private onces will steal the best lecturers form the fed univeristies. . .
