With two Iron ore mining companies, this state seems to be getting everything wrong, it is one of the poorest state in Nigeria. Presently its University maintains second to the last position in the country. Quite unfortunate.

OP. Wait till OAU students catch you. Be better prepared for the e-war. Did I forget to mention that for the very fact that OAU is not in the 1st position, this thread will hardly make FP?

bankyblue: the three last University should be relegated to polytechnic.

This ranking is based on the number of visitors to the university website i.e. webometric and not based on the university education, administrative or infrastructural standard. It is misleading and It should be checked by NUC.

Well, KSU in that position is not surprising because they admit only Kogi State indigene massively and treat others like "shit" even when they are qualified.

N.S: Don't quote me if you don't have any good point or evidence to tackle my points! I was born and I grew up in Kogi State so I know what am saying.

I'm a student of KSU and I know how things are bad here, however, I disagree that KSU is the second to last best school in Nigeria.

Like we may know, the yardstick used for ranking the schools the OP posted above is based on the numbers of online visitors and not on academics grounds and others. Therefore, the title of this thread is misleading and should be corrected.

Thanks.

Many people on nairaland are quite naïve, Akwa Ibom State University being last on that list does not equate it to be the worst university in academics.
The above is a WEBOMETRIC list.
Web--- internet
Metric---- measurement

WEBOMETRIC simply means grading according to the web presence of the university. It means the most visible Nigerian university on the internet is Unilorin and the least visible on the internet Akwa Ibom State University.

If you don't believe this then you're living in a fool's paradise to think Landmark University is better academically than eminent federal universities such as ABU Zaria, Unizik, FUTA, FUTO, Uniben, etc

I'm from Kogi State and also a student of the school, however, I disagree with you that admission into the university is not based on Merit.

I have been around the school for more than three years now and I know how things work here. Like you may know, the entrance exam is CBT and the result is released latest 7 days after the exam and students are scored base on their performance.

Saying they admit more of their indigene is false and without evidence to backup your claim. You see, some students from other states like Ondo, Ekiti, Osun, Lagos, Oyo and other states in the south-west region of the country claim to come from the Kogi state and visit any part of Okun in the state to claim origin since they answer same yoruba names with people from Okun.

You're not totally right.

Most faculties pay 100,000.00Naira for non-indigene while others pay above. For indigence, the fee is 57,000.00Naira per section.

You're misguided bro, the situation you just described is prevalent in MOST states across the federation.
Using the LG where you served as a yardstick for academic achievement is both preposterous and illogical.
Kwara state where you've Unilorin is one of the worst state in Nigeria education-wise. With the possible exclusion of towns like Ilorin, Omuaran and Offa, every other town/village in Kwara is academically backward.
In the Nupe region of Kwara, you will see schools with academic staff 100% Corpers, these schools are named NYSC Secondary Schools.

you're right bro...i'm a kogite and i know how bad the situation of things are in that state. a state with the largest cement industry in africa and with two iron ore factories and the federal government allocation keeps coming in every month. yet, there is noting to show forth. the secondary school i graduate from didn't have physics,chemistry,mathematics and agric teachers, and there are science students in school. they rely solely on corpers to take these subjects and when corpers are through with their service,we became helpless till other batch arrive in which there might not be among them those who can take science courses. we really suffered,cause if u cant read on your own then you'r own your own oooooooo.

back to the topic.

Ksu kno too badt lyk dat jhor....90% of my classmates are in that school. so the webometric ranking is junk.

BTW, OAU is third on that list,so that ranking is 'super-junk' cause that magnified secondary school called unilorin cant out-positioned great ife as the leading Nigeria uni.
Waiting patiently for NUC ranking.

Alot of desperate admission seekers do this because that is the surest way to be admitted to KSU.
