O.A.U., Ile-Ife is second to A.B.U., Zaria. OAU's agricultural farm alone is far bigger than Unilorin.

then they should make use of the land, build industries, farms etc.

All those land just wasting away!

That's so true. You can decide to stay inside the campus for a whole year without stepping out of the gate.. All what you need include a very big market is within the campus. Great Ife

Exactly. You can even fuel your car and refill your gas without going out of the campus. For those that like fresh food, agric students sell their farm produce.

OAU is by far the biggest uni in Nigeria in terms of land mass... right from Moro where the PD school is located down to the outskirt of the city of ile ife...

ABU the greatest

Oh,is it after Unilorin snatches the lands of the neighbouring villages? I'm from one of those villages,so stop boasting of the evil acts perpetrated by Unilorin.

In case you don't know, Unilorin has a landmass of 15,000 Ha. Which is the highest figure claimed by a University that I've ever come by.
Pls next time make a thorough and objective research so you won't be bias.

And one interesting thing is that Unilorin "embarked on a massive project of 10,000 hectares of oil Palm plantation to invest in the future and generate another oil revenue for the nation. The Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Dr Ngozi
Okonjo-Iweala, was on our campus on Thursday, May 15, 2014 to inaugurate the project”. Take note, that that plantation is situated on the campus and 'swallows' the whole of ABU.

With 10000 Hectare...FUNAAB leads, others follow...In terms of land mass


The university is one of the three universities of agriculture in
Nigeria , the other being in Makurdi (Benue State) and Umudike
(Abia State). The university started at its mini-campus in Isale-
Igbein in the heart of Abeokuta , the capital of Ogun State . In
December 1997 it moverd to its permanent site on a 10,000-
hectare campus which is located next to the Ogun-Oshun River
Basin Development Authority on the Abeokuta-Ibadan road in the
North Eastern end of the city, 15 km from Abeokuta City Centre https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki Federal_University_of_Agriculture,_Abeokuta

Does this size make it the best university in Nigeria? #BigForNothing. Or does it's size eliminate that annoying Hausa accent that's present in at least 75% of their graduates?

Every human being has an accent.

The post does not claim that it is the best. It is the biggest in terms of land mass.

Of course you are correct that size does not equate quality. We need to celebrate quality more than just size.

However, the size is notable.

Catalyst4real:
[b]That is my main problem with students from schools in the East and West.
They are wallowing in so much pride.

Taking pride in Futility and inexistent trivialities.
Thats why Northerners are always smarter, wiser and more Intellectual.

Because, an Average Igbo man will underestimate a Hausa man.
You call them "Ewu-Hausa" (Hausa goat) and all types of derogatory names.

You think they're stewpid and incapable of attaining great heights.

It is that contempt that makes you blind to their potentials.
In disguise they are excelling, but you won't see it, because you don't expect excellence from them.

This Tribalism and regionalism is what is Killing us, it has eaten deep into our souls.

You see a university that is the biggest in Nigeria and second largest in Africa

Normally you're expected to tap your chest and say yes, my country is taking the lead.

But No you won't, because the development is not coming from your region.

This is paralysing, and until we learn to unitedly appreciate progress as a nation, irrespective of where it is coming from, we will always be estranged to Growth[/b].

lol Hu is arguing with you Abi is t Hu s jealous of you

This is not true at all, Unilorin is the biggest.
The University of Ilorin is located in the
ancient city of Ilorin, about 500 kilometres
from Abuja, the Federal capital. Ilorin, the
Capital of Kwara State, is strategically located
at the geographical and cultural confluence of
the North and South with a land mass of
75,000 (approximate) hectare.

Abusite are all son's and daughters of love, let love rules.. We love love... Proud to be a product of Abusite.....
