One of the reasons Oyedepo is a role model to me is he has a way of identifying things and replicating it.
His thought process can be summarised into this "if that man can do this to get that result then i can copy what he did and get his results". Case study: his replication of Yongi Cho's 1 million congregation operations. The resemblance between Covenant and ORU is beyond normal, from compulsory chapel attendance to corporate dressing, the entrepreneurial drive of stanford. Till today Covenant doesn't take transfer students - even from the USA and never awards honorary degrees.

Lee kuan yew of Singapore rarely did anything new to advance Singapore. In his words we simply copied other people's template and finetuned it to our own local need. This is the same brain power behind China's rise to prominence, they identify a problem, they study solutions of others and they go after it with everything they have. Case in study: China discovered its universities where lagging behind on all fronts. The country declared the "double first class mandate" which mandated 42 of China's best university to overtake western ones. Today, for the first time Tsinghua university China has surpassed Ntl Uni of Singapore has the bestAsian institution and is coming close to Harvard and the likes while surpassing many other ivy leagues.

That JF Kennedy's visionary spirit which says "Russia sent a man to the Space then America must send a man to the moon" is very absent in Africa's leadership. And when few people try to stir the waters we tell them many reasons why they can never succeed because we are too familiar with serial failures in govt.

Producing a Nobel laureate is great bt being able to provide affordable bt yet quality education to thousands who can’t ever dream of it is a Greater achievement.

Pls add that to ur vision 2022.

There are people enjoying 100% scholarship in winners uni so that makes it free and even the govt that takes tax from you forcefully don't provide absolutely affordable education.

Covenant is the highest ranking Nigerian university on Times Higher Education Ranking. Honestly, Nigerian govt universities need to up their game especially the Unilags, UI,UNN, Unibens, ABU of these world that are living on past glory. College education has passed the level that they are currently operating at. Just take a look at Covenant's faculty of computer science and compare it to one of the first generation universities then you will know why Covenant is making strides.

Oyedepo once said on visiting ORU, Texas. "If Roberts can build this here, then it can happen anywhere in the World".

Oga. Producing Nobel prize winners is a multi generational, capital intensive, endeavour. It cannot be wished into existence.
FYI, the local and international job market is chock-full of products of federal universities. Take a sample for yourself.

Some of us are not brainwashed

HigherEd:
The university should set it's gaze on Economics. Economics is a good place to start. The only problem would be in the area of policy adoption...


Africa is a fertile ground for Nobel Prizes because of the many challenges bedeviling the continent, so if the school can nurture specific young lecturers in Economics to pick up a problem and go after it with maximum vigour propelled by a funding pool larger than what they need, they would definitely come back with that coveted prize.

When he declared Vision 10:2022, i'm sure NUC must have thought Oyedepo has actually gone mad No the man went and printed the vision everywhere on campus and kept repeating it to NUC anytime they visited. He led the management team to keep looking at the vision. I felt sorry for him that day he declared the vision. My lecturer was alarmed and felt insulted by the declaration of that vision, but today he is busy jumping telling everyone that CU is doing well. Now i don't feel sorry for him again.

Gerrard59:


Not totally true. Most top schools in Asia don't have a Nobel laureate either as a homegrown staff or even a poached one. NUS, KAIST, NTU, Seoul University etc. While I laud his ambitions and strides over the years, winning the Nobel prize especially in the science category would take years to fruition. Rather than target the Nobel Prize, he should look at the Abel's Prize, Fields' medal, Wolf's Prize, Albert Lasker medical prize, Japan's prize, Kyoto prize etc.

Nevertheless, it would be fantastic for a black individual to win a Nobel prize in the science category.

Gerrard59:


No be so dem take win Nobel prizes oh. These things take ages because while you're doing it in Ota, someone somewhere else has done same at a more advanced level. IMO, the best category to win a Nobel is in the chemistry or medicine/physiology category; by discovering a cure, say for Alzheimer's, a Nobel is sure.

Even the discoverers of CRISPER have not won a significant prize yet. Ah!
