Rubish

Great university indeed. No hating.

They have many gates leading to the school.

Nice one OP but what about ABU list of cultists, thieves,corrupt and bad eggs in our society? Abi u wan tell me say na only saint ABU dey produce??

They are all local champions. ABU has failed in producing any international achiever

searay:
This university is the reason Nigeria is like this, no thanks to the type of leaders she has produced

No hating bro, this is just the political cycle we talking about. We a great at what we do. Great in politics as well

fhunmi:
This doesnot make it the best university

what's ur point exactly?.
don't be jealous boo boo.

well as far as am concerned it does not translates to anything what I can denote from here is that the Northern Mentality of Born to rule is playing here, ABU is just producing Northern Politicians but when we talk of Universities producing graduates solving societal problems in Nigeria and the world at large, u cant undermine Obafemi Awolowo University, University of Ibadan and University of Lagos be it in the field of Engineering, Law, medicine and others. even if I done my own research OAU, UI and Unilag r breaking records outside the shore of the country. UI has produced the first and only the Nobel Laureate in Nigeria.
OP take a chill d school is only producing polithiefcians in Nigeria only.

All i c here are mainly northerners and few southerners.this a core northern university!

Imagine the nonsense, all r politicians, I just wonder wot they read in d university, political science?

Nigeria!!!! Haha!!! Bad belle people full this country.... Is it a crime to listed your alumni? You can list yours too abi... Learn to appreciate things around you, everything is not by sentiment. If the school is not the or among the best how can they have such production? One mumu say they are all politician and am sure he or she can see just the hatred affecting is cerebrum. Am a Yoruba, an abusite and always give respect to to other school in level with ABU. Stoping hating, is not good for the nation

Rubbish.
The school should be closed down producing men that made a mess of nigeria.
I guess they teach LOOTerology in that place.
Time-end school with end-time products.

fhunmi:
This doesnot make it the best university

did the OP said so?

University of ibadan, is still the first and the best. I rep university of ibadan.

Aboooki page

Why should i agree to this arguement? u have to appeal to premises which are logically relevant to the conclusion. upload proof of attendance of the above named.

ATIKU ABBUBAKAT, was among the bad boy's that terrorize the institution at that time.

just like pointing to the mother of the thieves we caught yesterday and what reaction do you now expect a hug??

9jatatafo:


Is there any federal or state university that is cult free?

Maybe that should be in the south cos here in the core north, we have never experience anything called cultism. We only hear abt it happening in southern part of 9ja.

GideonG:
You don't need to open the thread before you know it's ABU. My Mum graduated there too. In the next generation, Unilorin might have similar records.

I doubt it, some secondary schools go even beats them hands down.

something good didn't come out of this so called ABU oo..cus all these pple are corrupt

Wow! I think Obafemi Awolowo University is in line to do the same soon.
Check out this hot article about Yemi Alade http://www.globalafricana.com/2015/11/26/yemi-alade-how-that-yoruba-ibo-girl-became-an-african-superstar/

Barnabas Gemade is an influential figure in Benue state but has never being the Governor of That state. His name is not supposed to be on the list of governors please. [color=#770077][/color]

This is an impressive record. Sounds like Harvard

i saw Prof. Awojobi there.However many of those listed reminds us of those who failed nigeria.
Hope the new generation,when given the chance will redeem this country.

All these ELDS and Quota system graduates. Rubbish!

fhunmi:
This doesnot make it the best university

Bros leave talk! Last last d school get power to produce this much of prominent men and women. Una welldone.
Unizik will soon produce its own cos I am warming up

hmmmm. so ABU is responsible for our woes in Nigeria. BTW, is DAT the only university in the north?

Mrbigman1:
So because of akademic afflictions, dem dey re-circle demselves around government.

Dis Kaduna mafia story, so na true?
Cos d kind cultism wey dey Abu tie wrapper.


Make una continue, if una like, produce minister for Nija delta,

BIAFRA would come and sweep me off my feet.

I will now be looking u people from a far distance and be say, what a wasted years

Cultism? You think this is your flàthead Azikwes school?

Carry am go collect money 4 bank!!

Idrismusty97:
Cultism? You think this is your flàthead Azikwes school?

See ur life?
Abi u think I say what I dnt know?

Aturu awusa

Hausas are known to help each other than every other person in Nigeria.
