What do you think?Kudos to UI! Meanwhile, OAU needs to go back to the drawing board.

I don't trust this list

Good ranking. I will take this ahead of any personal "my school is the best" natural instinct. However, without much research to back myself up I will still assume that the difference in quality between most Nigerian universities is very minimal. We are just natural noisemakers.

Uniben should be number 1 on that list.

I suspect foul play!

Hmm..I quite agree with you on the said difference in quality between some Nigerian unis e.g UI and Unilag

It doesn't change anything.. Any school worthy of being first should be.
