What was the population of students in the entire university?

adler777:

It's a reflection of how bad the economy became, not the student's population. That was a time when $1 was less than N1. At that time, even if students were over 100k in the university, they would feed for the same amount.

Those were really times to study in Nigeria as university students were treated with respect and dignity.

Roboto11:


Oh lord.

Not even in the advanced world are students given free food.

Talk less of doing so half a million people everyday.

It's not everything we cry over.

adler777:


Who said anything about free food? Try to read before commenting... 😒

From the beginning of this thread, nobody mentioned anything about free food. Can't you see that's a meal ticket with a price on it? Stop rushing to comment like a kangaroo 🦘

Roboto11:


The meal tickets were given to the students for free.

You don't even understand the topic.

adler777:


You're proving hard to correct, that's your business anyways.

The OP never wrote about free meals, neither did I, you just assumed he was talking about free food and started replying like a court typist... Olodo 🤡

Roboto11:


Sharap.

The vouchers were given as stacks to students.

They were free vouchers which had a worth ascribed to them.

Of course, being the recidivist you are,you don't want to accept it because it defeats your cries of woe.

adler777:


Lol... you're the one exhibiting recidivism here, not me. You find it difficult to admit that you're commenting based on your background knowledge of an age-long story that university students were given free meals, whereas this thread never implied that or stated such.

The guts you have to argue in the face of glaring evidence is shocking. I no get your time abeg. 🥴

Roboto11:


Stop beating around the Bush.

Why are you angry I am pointing our the glaring difference: far more students today?

Why does this anger you?

You seem to be an angry man.

Oga go back to 1972 and live there. Since you think time, life and world will remain at a spot.

Life and world revolve and evolve. Did you have phones then? How about porch cars? Floating buildings on the seas or internet? Those things come at a cost. Have you found out how much a bulb was sold in the USA in that same 1972 and how
Much it is sold today? You people should grow up and embrace realities.

This is a photograph of a meal ticket for the University of Ibadan student cafeteria, in the year 1972.

At that time, a full plate of food cost only 25 kobo.

Wow! Those were the days...

Sammy4Joy:


... the days of yore.

1972! When men were and women were women. When Nigeria’s currency was stronger than the dollar and was still called the Pound.
