Most of the points you mentioned are completely frivolous. All these would not matter 10 years after school. One major advantage of going to Private School is the quality of people you would meet and that outweighs all the benefits. Most of my peers already secured good-paying jobs and businesses right before graduation.
Two things would define your altitude as a human being, that's your DNA and your environment. The things you consider a bragging right or an achievement counts as nothing in an private school environment where you have kids with parents earning millions of dollars.
I remember making 400k per month in my 300 level and it felt like nothing because of the environment and people I was exposed to. That alone shaped my thinking to stay quiet and do more. Yes there's a lot of exposure that can be gained from going to Federal schools but the quality is all that matters.

Darevofpeace:
Your analytical mind is beautiful, I love intelligent women who put fire on my toes.It's so nice chatting here with you.

midnighter:


Lol thank you. And you too

BETPAWA:
There is no disadvantage whatsoever; it is poverty of the mind that makes us deduce such utterances. Nothing is good as having a lot of money to afford what you wish and want.

Pavore9:
Hmm......are the dilapidated structures which is more prevalent in public universities also part of the advantages?

There is no heroism in "sufferhead"!

Dopefiend:


Ona don finish?

Op very silly points.

I’m sure you wished you went to a private school

Peejayx01:
I concur with all of this and they are all facts about the private schools. Firms and institutions these days prefer to employ the services of a public or federal university graduate all because they believe that they go through rigorous academic experiences

I rep Unilorin.... they can frustrate your life. All these has really made me wise.

While there are some Nigerian guys who are actually excited about the idea of attending a private university after their secondary schools, there are even more than thrice the number who don’t wish to, especially those who come from well-to-do families whose parents are always intoxicated with the proposed or assumed good morals and high quality of education their children will benefit from these private institutions.

Not to lie or hide it, private universities do have some good advantages like the absense of the very familiar strike in the federal and state universities and the quicker and better access to lectures but honestly that’s all they can boast of. Forget their forming and poshy lifestyles. Many of them wish they were in federal and public universities. Lol.

I had an encounter with a girl from Madonna university and she confirmed she wished she was in Imo State University as her school was worse than a nursery school in the ways they were being treated.

Going to a federal or state university gives you the exposure you need in life and not being confined like someone in a prison or a food warming in the microwave. You learn the ethics and orientations of the real world and you are braced to face life because you have seen it all.

You gain wisdom outside the school lecture halls and your system becomes automatically adapted to the real life hustles and struggles unlike some over pampered babies in the private institutions who can’t face the real world when they graduate.

Graduating from a public institution gives you a psychological balance and charges your mental ability to scale through difficult times.

Enough of the talk. Let’s roll straight to the point. Here are six reasons private universities don’t suit a typical Nigerian in this our kind of bad economy and government no matter how rich your parents are. C’mon, forget the money, you need to experience life in the public institutions and your life will never remain the same.

Freedom and Independence: You don’t wanna be confined in a place like a baby or someone in prison or a food warming in a microwave. You need space, you need freedom, you need to explore more, you need to move out and experience some things. Unfortunately, going to private universities, especially those owned by the churches won’t help you achieve this and I know deep down your heart, you wouldn’t like this to be your case. You also need to wear that favorite dress you like and you can only do this in a public university. In private universities, you live the normal routine of a bank staff – everyday corporate. Lol.

Cost of Education: Private universities pay exorbitant school fees as if they even learn anything. What has a student from a private university in Nigeria invented or accomplished after all the school fees? Not just about fees, cost of living in private universities are way too high unlike in the public universities where you can cook your own food, go to the market and buy foodstuffs at cheaper prices. Don’t you think you are too old to be fed like a baby in the private university?

Exposure: In a public university, you literally meet life and life meets you. You see it all. But in a private university, you graduate and still haven’t met a quarter of life let alone life meeting you.

Life on and off campus is everything: Like it sounds, it’s just it. Campus life is sweet – on and off it. That’s the kind of fun you will only experience in a public university. No wonder when students in private universities are on break, they want to do all the bad things and have all the fun at once before going back to school. They know they are in prisons and not school. Lol.

Maturity: When you graduate from a public university, you automatically become an adult because the school system has shaped you to be. But when you graduate from a private university, you start life afresh like a new born baby.

Hard Work: Public university will teach you that hard work is compulsory and you will see it with your two eyes. Students in privates schools are still being pampered like nursery school students.

Loll bros maybe we should ask the founder of paystack what he thinks because he is a product of Private university. You guys overate this nonsense of private uni this and that, but have you seen what graduates from Covenant Uni are setting up for business, while you are here giving archaic and myopic view of Private unis, no stop oo continue

Kingsean:
This doesn't make sense. Why are Nigerians like this? Why must u celebrate the hard life? Just becos its harder in public schools in nigeria, u think dats d best? Just in case u don't know, nigeria govt abandoned public schools dats y tins are hard like dat. Have u ever wondered why employers prefer foreign students? Cos d mentality here is bad. U can't blame private universities for closing their walls, u want cultism there too? If u had a private business, would u allow people meddle in anyhow? Have u asked why d top politicians send their wards to foreign and private institutions? Stop being jealous bro. Employers are looking at private school graduates now cos dey fit in better to corporate organizations. Take a look at Government offices, so mismanaged with lots of lazy workers then look at private firms, always developing at a fast pace. Don't be a hater. Just concentrate on d way forward and thank God for those who their parents were able to sacrifice much cash for d quality education. One day u might be a millionaire and send ur children to a great private university...

godblessenugu042:

ugbedeojo1993:
As am employer of labour, i will NEVER employ a graduate from a private university. because is only in private university u see the number of First Class student greater than the number of those with second class upper, and those with second class upper greater than those with second class lower. third class degree is only reserve for those who are struggling to spell there name (thats if there is any)

Auladimeji2:
I attended Public schools in my primary and secondary school level but Private institution but the street wise still dey my body,Majorities of my friends are ajebota but I dey tell them say make dem wise up

amaniro:




Exactly my point. There's a saying that Poor man thinks beer us bitter. I remember chatting with one of my friend. He said he hates Automatic cars, I laughed at him that its because he doesn't have the money to get one. He confirmed it to me later

BETPAWA:


Lmao.

Men, I myself isn't a rich dude but; truth must be told.

amaniro:



Neither am I. I don't know the hatred they have for private universities. To me they are doing excellent.
