How does land size add or take away from the quality of a school for God's sake?
Land is just an asset passed on to the schools by the federal govt. It has no impact on quality of knowledge imparted, advancement of body of knowledge or dissemination of knowledge. These are are the core three pillars of university education and I wonder what landmass can do for or against these three pillars. Roadside rankings.

I can only see UNN and others.

There are no five best anything abeg they're all the same
