Like you are fighting for the herdsmen, and making the poor farmers poorer?


I will pass Mr Defender of the poor!

Relax Bro, otoge is a gradual process and it would soon reach under bridge...

NPFL will be better

See how rickety the bridge looks, one would wonder how such a bridge got to be a major link in a federal institution. Our govt and their nonchalant attitude towards education in this country is nauseating or could it be from the school's management?

I would have called for a thorough probe but to what end when the results of other investigations are lying fallowed in the office of the various agencies in charge of taking disciplinary action against negligence (if we even have something as such).


May their souls find eternal rest.

Baring any last minute change, the fledgling indeginous cable TV; Telcom Satellite TV (TStv), will be airing live to her teeming fans and supporters across Nigeria and beyond the wonderful game of football from the English Premier League and the Dutch DFB Porkal championship including the ongoing preseason games and friendlies. This is because the issue of rights and ownership bordering the broadcast of these games have been resolved.

They need our support instead of the unwarranted criticism and vituperation we throw at them, this is our own and we can make it better.


I wish they can also broadcast live the NPFL to those of us that also follow our local league.

Damod88:
Our attitudes as Nigerians will never change. Tribal sentiments are our biggest problems to the extent that we find something to tribalize about in institutions that belong to everybody. What is most important is for the Universities to invest more in research to benefit the country. However, no matter the amount of rankings Nigerian universities received, they will still not be able to come up with good research because the Universities in Nigeria definitely reflect Nigeria's backwardness. You cannot expect a poor country to have world class institutions. It is definitely not going to be possible.

thank you brother, that's what they failed to understand.

CodeTemplar:
Nigerians and their bragado mentality. The UNN guy for no mention names or throw jibe.

He never did, he only acknowledged the position of other Nigerian institutions on the list.

HigherEd:
Well the point is this, if you must celebrate Citations as the basis of the whole ranking then you must give the full picture.

"Total citations" which UNN is parading represents just 10% of the total Webometrics rank.

"Excellence" represents 35% of the entire rank which measures the top citations received from top 10% universities in the world in 24 disciplines. UI usually leads in that area but you never see them parading that.

Webometrics is already very controversial as a whole. Let them wait till tomorrow when the full ranking is released before making any claims.

Just complicating things, you mean webometric itself is confused?


What stops UI from celebrating their 'excellence', if actually they are dominating in that field?

There is an adage in Igbo language that says when a warrior is praised for the one he has done, he would do more.


Allow UNN to bask in this achievement maybe this could spur them to surpass UI in the 'excellence' ranking if they are actually trailing UI there.

Blast indeed! I saw his comment on UNN official facebook page being furious that the report by UNN was wrong which is false. As an academic that he is, the least he should have done was verify the claim of UNN before throwing tantrums like a kid that his meal was denied him.

Trust UNN, he was put and placed on the place that he should be from the replies he got albeit subtly. UNN calmly acknowledged his notice on the typographical errors and equally shared the link to him to verify himself. I even verified it on his behalf and guess what, UNN is right.

Ranked not just above UI but even University of Ghana our neighbors.


I don't know why when UNN makes any breakthrough y'all come for the attack, the criticism and even belittles her efforts. What does it take from you to at least commend them and look inward to know what you ain't doing right to be ranked higher. Even from your post HigherEd, I can infer how you have already rubbished the achievements of UNN just because it's based on citations but that's equally the amount of research output from an institution.

Great Lions and Lionesses!

Keep going higher Oluwa Burna, Mr Gbona!

He should have left the party for the opposition at the hit of the moment instead he remained with them cause of the false promises they were bathing him with. One thing he failed to understand is that Tinubu rarely forgives and when he is coming after you he goes for the jugular, unfortunately Ambode learnt the had way.

Nice one from the guvnor...
But he should extend the rehabilitation of the school to other parts of the state especially in most of the deplorable public schools across the state.

Nice one for refuting and debunking the claims of naysayers and those that would love to see Abia state on its kneels but from the pictures it can be seen that Ikpeazu (and our Nigerian govt) still have a lot of job to do when it comes to finishing of projects.

First, who still constructs roads with open ditch in this century? why are the roads claded with sediments, silts and dust?
These are the little things that make a place have an endearing ambience.

If we want to do things let's take our hearts and do it wholely so that when we are commended we will proud to respond.

I was heartbroken when I heard the news last night...

This is so barbaric and reeks of retrogression. What stops the school from using the phones as research apparatus and improve on the IT Research and Development of the school, why burn confiscated items of students just because they went against the rule?


the school should have been a bit more innovative in approach to this situation rather than take this ignoble path.

No wonder the great Baron Mostequito posited that 'power corrupts and having it absolutely corrupts absolutely'...


Instead of this man to listen to the cry from the wilderness that his time is up he is still lurking around the corridor of power waiting for its fangs to consume him.


It would be an anathema having such an affliction again in an endowed state like Kogi.

FCBboy:
library annex means extension of the main library.

compare them, the later is not even close to that lamdmark and covenant.

Honestly, I laugh at your ignorance for daring to compare CU and Landmark libraries to that of UNN. Of course, I know what annex means and from your pictures posted on the library complex of KWASU and that of UNN you can see how expansive that of UNN is when trying to capture the whole complex thereby making the building in the pix looks tiny. If you had posted the aerial view of that of UNN you would have seen what I meant. The library is a three storey complex with basement.

FCBboy:
show us the picture of UNN library.

don't tell me you haven't seen the library...
if you insist just check google cause it's all over there

FCBboy:
mind you the library annex is not the main library, check the first pix it's contains two building. am a student of the school, so I know what am saying.

OK

asuustrike1:
Hmmmm!

nice arguing with you.

asuustrike1:
So you depend on mere picture to draw conclusion?
Are you one of those who judge a book by it's cover?

LOL! far from that Bro. the architectural design of that of KWASU which is circular leaves enough empty space (hollow) at the centre (talking about the library annex) which makes the reading halls smaller and the capacity limited.

asuustrike1:
Have you been to Kwasu library before drawing the conclusion?

I don't need to visit the school to draw conclusion, just observations from the pix alone and juxtaposing it with that of UNN that I have been to is all I needed. I am only saying it to debunk the claim of those attributing KWASU library as the largest in the country.
