Both 4iCU and Webometrics have released their first edition of their university rankings. Again, a very interesting trend is observed across both rankings, the leading Nigerian universities remained in the top 5 spots across both rankings while there was some variation towards the latter part of the lists. There was an impressive showing of FUTs this year, with Minna, Owerri and Akure strongly positioned in the top 10. Although Covenant university slipped 1 place down from first position on webometrics, it remained in the top 4 across both rankings retaining it's title as the best private university in Nigeria. University of Lagos and University of Ibadan are this year's top universities on 4ICU and Webometrics respectively, kudos to them!

PS: The overall best is still University of Ibadan, since it became the first Nigerian university to be ranked by the highly reputed international ranking organisation QS, in 600th spot amongst the world's top 800 universities.
