Wow. Let's wait and see sha.

G

I think Ogun state has more than enough universities already

Ogun state again?, how many tertiary institutions the govt wants to establish.

Dis a good news... can't wait tew c it happen

Hmmm.

Universities here and there in Ogun.

dats if d govt can manage dem all. its becoming so many .

Nonsense. The government is unable to fund Olabisi Onabanjo university, TASUED has lost a lot of courses due to being unable to meet NUC accreditation requirements, all as a result of underfunding. There are over 5 universities in the state and the government still wanna create more problem for the state. I wonder if the government thinks with the ass.

Make I go use my prick piss

can't wait to see mapoly as university of tech. even am finishing my OND soon. Rep #ArchitectureDept.

how many schools wan day Ogun abeg

Arrant nonsenses from those saying the state already has enough Unis, could an entity have enough educational institutions? In as far as they are adding positive values. America has over 7000 universities

They've not managed OOU well, they want to add another one.

What kind of dumb idiotic fools do we have in Nigeria?

I sometimes do not understand the motive behind converting a polytechnic to a university because in real sense, they have different purposes. Universities have Profs as VCs while poly has a Doctor as a rector, there is a deficiency, even though the amount o books you have read doesnt determine the sense in ur head
Most poly lecturers dont even have masters, some are lecturing with B.sc, when you can't even lecture at a university with a B.sc except maybe as graduate assistant.
What should be done is that the standard of education and quality of instruction at this institutions be improvd, not conversion from one form to another. Befor i got admission into the poly, i heard that poly does practical well, but in my department, reverse was the case and many other departments i know of. An HP proliant server that costs millions of naira is left to gather dust in my department, switches and routers we should have used for networking practical are still inside their packaging.
The issue now is not facility, but instructors who have the technical know how to use this facilities to train students.
Other forms of improving our education should be sought, not conversion of one institution to another.

Amosun and misplaced priorities.

You want ogun state to have its third university.

We already have about four government owned polytechnics already .

We are just wasting this money anyhow

Keep deceiving urself, u thing running a university is same as running a poly. Have Mapoly new students started paying 200+ as school fees? When you don't get intervention from the government, oga, grown would be stunt.

State University?



MAPOLY Why... ..... .

Dem b creating new universities while d xsisting ones Hvent been properly taken care of

MAPOLY has the capacity to become a university of technology. Their level of education is far better than most universities. If u went thru OND at MAPOLY as crossed into any university, u will understand what I mean. You must be amongst the best in ur class sha ni, unless u be yeye student for mapoly. Enough time to play enough time to work. Beautiful synergy.

Besides, if you don't have ur pHD in view, u can't even be accepted at a second lecturer at MAPOLY. ask anyone..

It's long overdue...

fastest growing state in Nigeria,industrial base of nigeria.

it doesn't really matter,.... Polytechnic is still needed in our society not all wards can make cut off marks required for university admission

Good idea, but isn't it all politics?

The 2 existing universities are poorly funded yet you're adding a 3rd.
