Ironically, most of them are owned by churches whose members finance, and at the end of the day they can't afford to send their children there.

[center]the painful is that ministry owe expensive school and what is their standard in the national body. Anyway govt and public school re the best[/center]

Nigerian universities, like every other thing in nigeria is ranked by money. Which of these schools ever came up with a new innovation based on research and development. All we hear is highest money paid for no visible, tangible output.

Intelligent people are ranking based on R&D, innovations, school facilities and quality of professors they have, we on the other hand are stroking our ego by how much we pay even at that once in a while u still hear cases of no water or light in the school.
Nigerians still have a long way to go when it comes to knowing the value of what they are paying for

So pple pay this much for the shitty quality of education in Nigeria?

Op, we know that private uni are the most expensive in nigeria. But what i will like you to do now, is make a research for us, stating the most expensive state universities and the most expensive federal universities. For there, we will then ascertain the people that are killing education in nigeria.

What of CU? Are you kidding me?

Post jamb rejected students are those u find in private skools these dayz..
