1 UNILAG:


The University of Lagos – popularly known as Unilag – is a federal government research university in Lagos State, southwestern Nigeria.

Doubtlessly, University of Lagos aka UNILAG has produced several professionals, who are doing very well in different fields.

The Akoka-based citadel of learning, which is regarded as one of the best in the country, also has many Nollywood stars and Musicians as its alumni.
Amongst the alumni of the University of Lagos, Akoka and other institutions that fall under that banner are:

Ousainou Darboe, current Gambian Minister of Foreign Affairs
Yemi Osinbajo, current Vice President, Federal Republic of Nigeria
Rilwan Akiolu, current Oba of Lagos

Neither did I, but I think the university has the most vibrant alumni in the nation. When it comes to most notable alumni, no particular first generation university can claim it as they have all excelled in this regard. OAU, UNILAG, UI, ABU & UNN have arguably produced the most notable alumni in Nigeria, and it's pretty difficult to give it to anyone of them. UI may tower a little bit above comparable universities since it's the oldest in Nigeria and had been producing graduates before independence.

tor browser download The name Tor is originally derived from software project name “The Onion Router“. Encryption is done in the application layer of communication protocol stack by onion routing, which is nested like a layer of onions. All the data and the destination IP address is encrypted by Tor multiple times and then it is sent through a virtual circuit to randomly selected Tor Relays. Each relay decrypts an encrypted layer to pass the encoded information onto it.
