Lol...CU better than UI , Ife ....in what land reality or dreamland
In reality CU is a glorified secondary school who charges high tuition hence can afford some element of what a growing or up and coming university should be ...

TheVictorious:


At the bolded, okay I don hear you. The same fallacious and logically deficient thinking pattern I hammered on in the post! Why didn't you simply attack the point with verifiable claims. Performance of institutions isn't based on the assumptions of our minds!

Talking about comparison of research output; did you read the post at all?? or you just feel like displaying your ignorance.

patani:
You guys better grow up.. no one knows university u graduated from on you way up the corporate ladder

And u are not thinking like a child? If you r talking about CU don't even talk about rejects of Public unis. For most folks who studied in CU and Babcock if those schools didn't exist they would have schooled in far better unis in US or Uk.

No need for all these dick measuring contest.....
Covenant has done verry very well, and they are ranked amongst the best 10 unis in Nigeria which is no fluke.
.But comparing with federal uni tho...... I don't know much about that .

We have to give honor to whom it is due, Covenant don try.

Handsomecole:
@ OP I didn't bother reading your all your epistle . I only have one question for you.

How much is your school fees as compared to how much your federal University counterparts pay??

The answer will put to rest all these you have put up, you don't have to struggle or kill yourself with researching just to proove that your school is better than OAU and other Universities.

With all you have written even your "headmaster" am sorry I mean VC knows that your lesson or university as you call it can never stand OAU Great IFE in anything I mean anything. Even as it stand we have "whites" flocking down to OAU as students and even as lecturers. So don't kill yasef. What is Great is already Great!!

eph12:

So you're saying CU is better because they charge huge fees?

Good job but let me enlight you a bit.
Do you know that 80 percent of CU professors and academicians are from federal universities.

2 Do you know that the regulatory bodies like NUC top professors are from public uni?

3 Do you know that CU overall best graduated student can't not match some 2.2 student in OAU and UI

4 Do you know that most courses in Private universities were not accredited by NUC

5 Do you know some professional bodies in Nigeria like ICAN does not accept exceptions from most Accounting graduate from private Universities.
Lastly do you know that most graduate from private uni can't match there colleagues from fed uni in labour market

6 Do you also know that 85 percent of students from private uni do graduate with 2.1 whether they are academically sufficient or not, as 2.2 is considered to be a failure.

eph12:

At bolded that's the problem. Nobody cares what kind of graduates they're churning out but it's to shout 2000 professors in my faculty up and down. Doesn't make sense at all.

Which is better to you? Practical based or theory based mode of learning?

ilynem:

Stupid argument. The others are federal unis and should actually be better. Do you think the peanuts u pay in ur fed institution is what runs the school? No. Look at federal schools abroad and you will see they can't be compared with their private counter parts. They are way better because they are run with government resources which should be 100 times more than the resources of covenant.

eph12:


I understand that you don't know how to defend the so called top universities anymore.

SonOfEl:


Yet it still from these unis that you lobby for "2000 professors" to lecture in your beloved CU.....SMH

I should be asking you the question. The theory and practical training are there in the public uni, its just that the funding for consistence are inadequate. Yet they still manage to produce graduates who can compete ANYWHERE, ANYTIME, ANYDAY....not your "daddy-mommy" school.

ilynem:

This is a stupid argument as public schools are subsidised and run by government. So it is actually supposed to be better. Look at public schools abroad, they can't be compared with their private counterparts. So give them credit for running the school properly.

Tell me the title of d research

I'll have to start looking for it again

I sha remember him referencing my own supervisor for d wrong work twice..

eph12:

As someone that finished from a top federal university I can boldly say practicals carried out there are the basic secondary school types. If funding is the problem that's a topic for another day. But at least you realise there is a problem which CU don't have.

Yes lecturers are sourced from everywhere including federal universities and they give their best more in the private university. Is this not an indication that the federal universities have a bad system?

With the high number and quality of students admitted every year we should expect better from federal universities.

Federal university is still the best... .

One of my friend with just a Bsc holder, is heading a department in one of the private university. You can't try that in a federal university ...........
