Yaba Tech Claims To Be The 27th Oldest Higher Institution In The World by mekusxxx: 10:16pm On Nov 22, 2009
Yaba college of Technology being the first higher institution in Nigeria, third in Africa and twenty-seventh in the world is indeed a place for rich academic culture and heritage. This is why we pride ourself as "Yaba the GREAT"

Yaba College of Technology programmes have been accessible to students through full time and part-time courses since 1947. Today, there are over 16,400 students studying for one programme or the other.

Why do we Nigerians always lie and make false claims that are easily verifiable? No matter what, Yaba Tech has not been in existence even in 1900, whereas I can count more than 100 universities in Europe that have been there since 1600 and earlier. My alma maters in Europe were established in 1425 and 1558, while my present university of employment was established in 1888.

Babapupa and Sagamite,

My mates are actually working in industries and earning better salaries than I do. So, I am already seeking to get a position in an industry. What is the big deal about working in a university anyways? You guys take the university so seriously, which might explain why you forge certificates for all sorts of reasons.

Might you be refering to me? If so, I am not angry at all, but only miffed at the blatantness of Nigerians. How can Yabatech be the 27th oldest higher institution in the world? Even in Africa, I doubt that Yaba Tech comes close to that, considering that the North Africans have had institutions far back in time.

Sagamite,

You are from Sagamu and people from that general area (including Yaba) are reputed for false claims. Please say whether or not Yaba Tech is the 27th oldest higher institution in the world.

As for me, send me your email and let's discuss my qualifications, since it is private and must remain so. My qualifications will blow your mind, I assure you.

Babapupa,

Ok I see where your problem lies: comprehension

University of employment = place of employment. That is simple English language construction that I often make which simple minds like yours find difficult to fathom.

I have a list of more than 500 oldest universities and Yaba tech in not among those

Two lies told by Yaba Tech debunked in 1 second

Yaba Tech is not the third oldest higher institution in Africa
Yaba Tech is not the 27th oldest higher institution in the world

When will all these Yoruba people and institutions stop telling lies and making false claims?

Dude, Yaba tech claimed the oldest higher institution, not oldest university. Give your fatigued brain a rest,


lol @ university of employment.

BP,

A university is not a higher institution? Continue with your senseless defense of lies.

Prove that the use of ''university of employment'' to depict the fact that I work in a university is wrong. Olodo Babapupa and Sagamite trained at Yaba Tech, the '' 27th oldest higher institution in the world'' grin grin grin
Re: Yaba Tech Claims To Be The 27th Oldest Higher Institution In The World by mekusxxx: 1:25am On Nov 23, 2009
Nigeria became amalgamated in 1914. Before and around 1914, there was no higher educational institution in Nigeria. Yaba Tech, by whichever status, came in probably around the 1930s or even later. Yoruba people should stop telling lies that even the blind can decipher, using Nigeria's name. I beg!

Higher institution is basically anything above HS/Secondary School and again, Yaba Tech claimed oldest higher institution, not oldest university so your little link is useless and irrelevant.

Try again, you can do it,

lol @ the Igbo man's never ending desire to negate @ the same time  compete with Yoruba people. Obviously, Yoruba people are way above this petty bitching, moaning and jealousy.

I know the fact that Yoruba people are way ahead of you guys and will always be drives you guys nuts, but hey, these are the breaks, it's destiny and you can't do nothing much but gripe, bitch and moan.


When was the last time you open thread dedicated to your people/highlight their achievements and whatever good they have going on over there? Your needless and senseless tribal baiting threads are obviously designed to showcase your insecurities and  shortcomings as a person and by extension per other igbo folks with similar mindsets on this board, group of people.

You pay Yoruba folks too much unsolicited attention that you neglect your own people as if they don't exist, irrelevant and what ever good they are doing/achievements means nothing to you and ain't worth talking about and showcasing. Yoruba people are OK, they don't care if you eat yellow or white garri with your ogbono.

The desire to have sleepless nites and display your insecurities per Yoruba people trumps you, your people, way of life and culture.

All the useless and needless hand me down anti Yoruba garbage is doing nothing but breeding hateful and mindless zombies with zero sense of self worth and life compass. Pay attention to yourselves for a change.

You are your own worst enemy and the joke is on you. My friend,



Get a life and find something worthwhile to do with your time,
Re: Yaba Tech Claims To Be The 27th Oldest Higher Institution In The World by mekusxxx: 2:33am On Nov 23, 2009
Definition of Higher educational institution (e.g., Yaba Tech):

Any institution that offers education beyond the secondary level, especially education at the college or university level.

http://www.answers.com/topic/higher-education

So BP,

Are you supporting the claim that Yabatech is the 27th higher institution in the world (higher institution includes universities)? I really would like you to say something, because you are just blabbing like a caged rabbit and have not said anything.

Even if you exclude universities (which is not possible give the definition of a higher institution), are you supporting that claim still?

I know that when your (Yoruba) lies catch up with you, you claim jealousy and tribalism. It is no surprise
Re: Yaba Tech Claims To Be The 27th Oldest Higher Institution In The World by mekusxxx: 2:34am On Nov 23, 2009
I do not care when Yoruba tell the truth, I care when they lie and make false claims, which is usually common with them. The white people who establised Yaba Tech did not claim they are establishing the 3rd oldest higher institution in Africa nor the 27th in the world. Yoruba took over and began to peddle false claims.

FYI, Many reputable Igbos studied at Yaba Tech for e.g. Cyprian Ekwensi, one of the greatest novelists in Nigeria

Again the first black rector of Yaba Tech was an Igbo. So Igbo have a reason to praise YABA Tech when right and condemn it when wrong.
