Just a new hostel, post me this hostel again in the next 10 yrs

That's not going to happen because they renovate and upgrade at the end of the session.

MY ALMA MATER(UNN) HOSTEL.

is it fine or dirty?

oluwasegun007:
am sure the hostel was either newly constructed or maintained...... because students Will always be students anywhere in the world and Africans will always be Africans..

It was constructed 4years ago and the ones constructed 60years ago are also as clean as that. this is due to the school policy of renovating every facilities at the end of the session.

......

Am i a ghanian? mbanu!!

Who am i?

AdorableBelle:
Just shut up already, and let it be your wisdom. Mere four days as a religious tourist in Ghana and you come here shamelessly yapping against your country.
Disgraceful!

Mere 4 days! Really! sorry, i started going to Ghana since year 2000 and lost count of my visits to Ghana. Approximately, 25 or 30 times.

If i no love my country i will keep it to myself but i love my country, i love my children who has/could be victim of our poor educational system.

Professurr:
Please can you give me more information about the international youth fellowship?

It is a non- governmental organization formed and established in 2001 in South Korea in 2000 in Nigeria by many prominent citizens with the intention of addressing youth related problems in the world such as self indulgence, deviation, drug&alcohol abuse, crime which occurs as a result of societal negligence, ignorance, poverty of the heart, decline in self value e.t.c.

The purpose of IYF programs is to enrich and straighten the hearts, mind and body of the youth in other to make them future leaders of our next generation. We believe leader are not those who are very smart, brilliant and intelligent but those who have the selflessness mind in them.

IYF has achieved this through various programs like World Camp and International exchange activities called GNC (student goes abroad for one year exchange program), scholarship to study masters and PHD in South Korea for exceptional first class student studying among the best Universities in Nigeria. etc. these programs come annually and Nigeria Camp is coming up this month.

Stop overhyping! Wat's ova thr is also here nd even better... Pay a visit to covenant hostels & unilag hostels nd see wat i'm saying

bhuahhahahahahhahah! i not laugh small oo. Covenant maybe but Unilag bwwhahahahahahah! i no fit laugh small oo..

Ok, show us pictures.

ROSSIKE:
The US also has a GDP of nearly 17 trillion dollars. It is YOU who needs to leave the argument as you have no point. You think excellent facilities drop from the sky? It takes MONEY. And even if all Nigerian politicians were saints, we would still struggle to provide the sort of world class services people like you demand of the country. What we need to do is build more wealth instead of sitting around sharing this meagre oil money and thinking we're a 'rich country'.

(And please try to provide accurate info instead of attempting to deceive people by your false stats about Finland).

So are you saying it is deserving and justifiable of us to have rotting Universities?

Afam4eva:
Covenant is not as bad. Itnis actually good based on Nigeria's standard but those Ghanaian schools are better.

Na wa for my country people o.

wait a minute, do we even have standard at all?

Princek12:
The hostels are beautiful when compared to Nigerian hostels. They are below par and ugly when compared to American dorms or world-class dorms. It depends on your level of exposure. If all you've ever seen were Nigerian hostels, then these U of Ghana hostels would be "beautiful" to you.

Like i said earlier, University of Legon hostels is almost or equivalent to some foreign Universities and that does not mean it is better or most beautiful Universities in the world. I said i visited some of South Korea Universities before and i know what standard of beauty is all about. mind you, South Korea has the best Educational system in the world.

So bro, my point is not all about the beauty but to expose the rot in Nigeria Universities.

nellyb24:
u have bin dia as in how.u passed by covenant means u have bin dia?have u stayed or studied in covenant b4.dnt knw nigerians are dumb.cum 2 germany and c hostels den u wud knw u guys just celebrating mediocracy.pls travel and c

Bros, what exactly is your point?

nellyb24:
so someone just came and posted a dirty toilet and said its uniport and u dumb head believed.how many uniport student even stay in hostel?The off camp lodge i stayed while in uniport waz way better dan does pics posted above.

Show us pictures and we will forever remain silent.

Afam4eva:
With what I've seen on this thread, its surely better than covenant as I've been there. Our leaders are just thieves.

eehen! You don't mean it. that was why i said 'some private Universities' not knowing Covenant self fall hand.

Tomorrow they will shamelessly show pictures of their children graduating from foreign Universities.

dumo1:
That's the general kitchen and wash room

ok, i see. thanks for the information.

@seun@lalasticlala@ishilove i thank una for yielding to my humble plea. once again thanks. ile ise yin o ni jo na ooo....

@seun, @lalalasticlala @ishilove,

Pls, lets help dispatch this information to the public especially the Government media on this reputable forum(Nairaland) for the sake of the future of our children. We can't keep runing away from the truth now.

Who knows if the Government seeing these pictures will change their minds to develop our Eductional institution. Nairaland will take the credit for this anticipated revolutions not me because it is a faceless forum.

Pls, kindly do the needful by placing this topic on the front page. thanks

Note; I have edited the post to conforming to acceptable/accepted rules of Nairaland. Thanks

sikkim manipal University, Accra campus, around circle side.

ok! is it a Private University?

We attended the just concluded 2015 IYF(International Youth Fellowship) World Youth Camp in University of Ghana, Legon Ghana from 31st of July - 4th August, and because we arrived late at night we were given temporary accommodations for that night pending registration the next day. However, they took us to Elizabeth Francis Hall(hostel) where we were given a room.

At first, i thought it was the usual Nigerian public Universities with dilapidated structures; Dirty and flooded bathroom with no functional water taps, rooms without foams, no table and chairs, no fan, dirty walls, dirty floor, e.t.c.

But we got the ultimate surprises of our life, behold the rooms we were given was well painted with white paint i repeat sparkling spotless white paint, two bunk beds with school made foams, four tables and chairs obviously for four students, well designed wardrobe for each students, a toilet and bathroom with water running through the taps, a ceiling fan, tiled floors, fire alarm, private balcony to spread your clothes e.t.c almost or equivalent to what i saw in one Busan University in South Korea when i attended 2014 IYF World Youth Camp in Busan.

Chai!! I don die, see Ghana Ghana wey no get oyel pass us, come get pass better university pass us.

In fact, holistically we stand a better chance than Ghana but how they come get better facilities pass us. Ghanians i beg make una understand. no offense.

No wonder foreigner students full the University.

The next day we register and were given rooms in ISHI(International Students Hostel), the setting is different from the previous hostel. It has two beds with the school made foams, two designed wardrobes, two tables and chairs, a ceiling fan, fire alarm, balcony to relax and spread clothes, well tiled floors e.t.c. the bathroom and toilet are not in the rooms this time around but they are very clean with running water. They have kitchens with refrigerators and one other room.

Let me cut the story short. University of Ghana is far far far.....better than all our Public and some private Universities in Nigeria in terms of beauty, maintenance culture, facilities e.t.c

I was told that the school is autonomous, and that they always renovates all the structures and facilities at the end of every session.

OXYGENO1:
KNUST international hostel

Chai! i don die! is this a hotel or hostel?

BOWOTO:
The hostel I stayed while schooling in SMU Ghana is way better that this, with air condition, wifi,plasma, small library and all, We even had a pool..... Nigerians need to wake up and stop celebrating mediocrity.
I'm tired of suffering and smiling.

eehe! really! So, what is SMU?

chachanga:
Can you imagine Public Schools run on public funds by public servants having this much elegance and educational effectiveness, in "lowly" Ghana?
/arrrhhhggg, dammn?! just spilt hot coffee on my laps!/

Then, where da hell's all my dear Naija public enterprises and institutions?! And d so called privatization experts, who having been part of the various cabals and juntas who bankrupted them, still bought them with funds stolen from "WE, the people ?" Ahhhh?!

I used to fink most of all Nigerian corrupt leaders starting from anyone who had anything to do with missing crude oil funds from 1976 till date ought to be taken out into the yard and shot...Kim Jung style....


now i know am kinda right!


Nigerian leaders
transforming gold to shyt since 1803

Stomach infrastructure is all they have got to show for till date.

walemoney007:
have you been to the both of them(ATBI and Covenant)?

I have been to covenant and that was 8 years ago or thereabout i can't remember but i haven't been to ABTI.

Have been to both of them before?

AzontoGhost:
knust has 9ce hostels !for foreign students christened Guss hostels ( students call it Brunei tho.)

I heard about it.

iamord:
there is only one uni I can call. The atikus uni. But how many people can afford it.

Covenant is the best private University while ABTI is the most expensive University in Nigeria. that is the problem.

I think University of Ghana is more beautiful than both of them.

iamord:
yeah in bayelsa or so. Buy it's not standard as compared to its compatriots

Delta State to be precise. You can say that again.

Nigeria public Universities and some private Uni.don't have standard. fact

tensazangetsu:
Yeah I got admitted in both of them oron certificates aren't even accepted by some shipping companies in nigeria, they offer diploma by the way. Rsust offers a degree in marine engineering but that school is bleeped.

As usual now, gaint of Africa on paper. bros, i am not doubting you.
