In my time there were some courses with almost 1000 student and lecturer in front where only 200 can only hear him talking to himself. If that's what you are banking on to pass you are OYO.

FG is subsidizing by running the universities with government money while we paid few thousands as school fees.

For the purpose of argument u may not want to agree, but almost everyone knows that the "education" obtained from Private owned institutions where millions are paid yearly and one obtained from a tertiary institution affords u both opportunity to work in the same industry and function well on the job.

Yes public tertiary education has it's attendant problem like some lecturers missing lectures, some lecturers' teaching styles are archaic , etc. But as far as what u called "quality education" is concerned, both private and public varsities have what it takes to deliver . Most of the professors working in private universities were even poached from public varsities.

Except what u call "university experience" is just the ambiance, fine classrooms and hostels, beautiful buildings etc.

Tinubu no dey keep grudge, this nigga is only ever out for his political interest. He can even work with Dino Melaye who threatened to rãpe his wife. Nigga is a PROFESSIONAL politician, no emotions involved

In mine (which is relatively recent) we faced same.
Sometimes, we took courses in a stadium.
If you like come, if you like don't come.
Even the lecturer will tell you that you can make noise but you should just shift further behind...

One of our lecturers normally comes to whisper in class. And if you dare say you can't hear him, you're failing the course.

Most people who are making something off that chaos back then we're not only brilliant but had to actually put in 2x the work for them to actually have an idea of whatever they were looking to learn.

A nerd in FUOYE may just have the same bandwidth in knowledge with an unserious CU graduate.

Kaycee54321:


No. What I meant by foundational education isn't the 1+1 in pre college.

I meant for instance, someone studying comp sci who actually opens visual studio to code in class...no matter what the lecturer ends up teaching or not teaching...will most likely end up faring better than the regular student who writes obsolete code on paper, uses runs to pass the course of one "wicked lecturer" and gets his first laptop during NYSC.


And yes. UNILAG and CU can compete.

But what of CU and DELSU?
Or UNILAG and Fed Poly Ilaro?

Averagely speaking...

BlueRayDick:


The problem here is u are comparing the poor students in public universities to their bright counterparts in private universities.

Yes I agree public varsities don't have enough infrastructures like laboratories , studios, workshops, etc. which makes learning difficult..... It still doesn't mean on an average the public varsity graduate won't fair well at the end of the day in his chosen career path.

Maybe its cos I'm speaking from social science/management science point of view. My experience may not actually be in reality with thiose who studied STEM courses in both varsities.

This is where I think u are actually wrong.

I've been on a team that had just 2 of us from public universities and 4 from private universities. Mind u, everybody on the team either graduated with 2.1 or 1st class from their respective varsities. What I confirmed at the end of the day was that everyone on the team deserved their place . The intelligence was there for everyone to see

Kaycee54321:


What I was just trying to point out is that the school one attends plays a big role and not a small role in how one's career turns out.

A bright student from a public uni will need to work harder than a bright student in a well funded private uni.

At least, that's what I think.

Council tax

BlueRayDick:


If by the bold u mean A bright student in a public university has to put in more efforts to get good grades when compared to his counterpart in private varsity, I agree with u.

What I'm however saying is after getting ur degree from a public university, the knowledge u acquired from ur public varsity can afford u opportunity to compete favorably with those that graduated from private university

Kaycee54321:


Yes. Yes. I think so too.

I was just saying that since the guy from the underfunded uni has to put in more work...then the uni does not play a small factor...

It's actually a big factor because you've got to put in that extra work before you can even join the conversation about competing with your peers in the market.

I listened to Jimi Disu on radio This morning and he mentioned something like this about the students loans which were given to students in the late 70’s/early 80’s.

He narrated how students get loans while in school claiming to be indigent students even after collecting the school fees from their parents at home. Some students bought nice power bikes with their own student loan.

Once they are done with school , they pay someone in the ministry to help them smuggle their loan file out after which they will destroy it and there’s no evidence of them owing the government .

The good thing now is that there are computer systems , database, backup and BVN that can spool out the data of any would-be defaulter

1970s Nigeria was the worst. Back then everybody combined and contributed to the looting of Nigeria. That oil boom came too early for the country. It is like when a young man hammers in his early 20s. Na soso Maybach and Ferragamo he go dey buy.

Olowunl01:


You are one conflating the issues...
Nigerians pay tax, and I opined that they pay alot more in relation to what they get back from the ruling class.

The 45% Tax you listed paid in the UK gets you good health care and good roads and education system, whereas a banker in Nigeria earning 12M per annum will pay still pay tax maybe 20% but will spend probably easily spend another 30% of their income on school fees and healthcare for their family.

nihilistjnr:



Bro, infrastructure is not free. In the UK, we pay NI tax which can reach up to 12% of your annual salary, matched by employer contributions, to cover the NHS and Social Benefit schemes. This is separate to Personal Income tax that can see the government take as much as 45% of your annual salary as their cut.
