Credit should be given to leaders(Obafemi Awolowo, SLA Akintola, Sir. Adesoji Aderemi, the late Oni of Ife, e.t.c) with vision and mission who built this University when majority of people's eyes have not opened. If these leaders were corrupt like the present day leaders, nobody will be here to display any pictures. University of Ife, as it was called then was built when SLA was the premier of the Western region. The University was not just a master piece in terms of Architecture but also in Culture and learning. It is a University that even most African Countries are proud of. Most of these structures were built in the 60's, in 1983 one of the African head of state that visited University of Ife, then acknowledged that, "This is the most beautuful University in Africa". The truth actually, then is that. OAU is the 2nd most beautiful university after the University of Cairo(if my memory will not fail me). I don't know of now.

I am a product of Great Ife, from South West and have lived in the Niger Delta for more than 2 decades now. I used to punch and provoke the Niger Deltans, the south-south of Nigeria that, they were bereft of leaders. They have the petro-resources to build the most beautiful University, more beautiful than OAU, but what do they have? The billions is sitting in individual pockets. I pray that God will give us visionary leaders that will transform not only the infrastructures but also the contents.

Let not this generate any arguments or "my generator big pass your own".

cheers

Trash pictures.
Color bleached pictures and blurry pictures.

The camera focal point too distorted the pictures instead of enhancing them.
Didn't OP see the sensible pictures presented on UNILAG and ABU threads?

OAU being one of the most beautiful universities in Nigeria with it's utilized sloppy land, people have been looking out for this thread, envisaging how a beautiful thread would be, but OP spoilt it.



The pics are over-edited

Probably the only school in Nigeria with it's own dam, central water treatment plant, and central sewage treatment system with its own oxidation pond. I've not seen this combo anywhere else in the country.

no be lie bro.. I support this motion �

This latest trend on NL is aesthetically pleasing to the eyes. Maybe the next one should involve the interiors of these buildings; studios, labs, research centers, features that are unique to one's university. It would be nice to see these schools go toe to toe on that.

Lol......the editing has distorted the pictures. No doubt OAU has some of the most beautiful architectural buildings but due to lack of maintenance, they are becoming shadows of themselves. Most haven't been painted for decades. Reason is why UI and UNILAG are far ahead.

Take for example no hostel in UNILAG or UI can ever be this bad and unkempt like these ones in the first two pictures. Now compare this to the worst hostel in unilag Enijoku from the last two pictures and see what i am talking about.

Make sure you modify this post.
Those photos of OAU's hostel are really obsolete. OAU has since renovated her hostels plus redefine hostel policy. It looks beautiful now.
I'm not there but I was at some of their hostels sometime last year, it's totally different now.

Indeed, when it comes to campus beauty and serenity in Nigeria, a magnificent West African estate, the OAU, comfortable sits on top.

With a perfect blend of inspiring architecture and nature, the university is overlooked by a touristic mountain from where the Nigerian academic giant can be viewed in a glance. The planning of the school is such that there are special designated areas for academics, hostels, sports, banking, markets, staff quarters, a university farm etc.

Rumor has it that this citadel of learning is well on its way (if it already hasn't) to generate her own independent power supply that will help boost adequate research activities. This is expected to translate into better global ranking for the university in the coming years.

The University, which also has produced numerous notable alumni including the current president of the African Development Bank, Akinwunmi Adesina, is perhaps the only one such in the country where some form of space research takes place.

These are some random aerial and other pictures from "Great Ife" as it is fondly called.


But why do people retouch and repaint these aerial view photos before posting them on line? Who do they think they are fooling?

The thing is that no hostel was shown in any of the pictures...
They should show pictures of hostels and lecture halls so we see how the students are surviving...
Some of the universities are even battling with water supply....

To think that setting up of OAU was done by Nigerians and to see that its aesthetic beauty can stand with any international university is enough reason to bekubel that there is nothing we can't achieve if we decide to get things right.

It was built by Israelis. A former Isreali Deputy Prime Minister was the Chief Architect.
