Obafemi Awolowo University was established by the Action group in 1961 AFTER independence, by Chief Obafemi Awolowo, who, in protest at the (colonial) Ashby Commission's recommendations in 1959 to build a federal university in the north and east, but none in the west, decided to establish the University of Ife, which later came to bear his name. That is why it is called Obafemi Awolowo University. He built it. See, the university you're crediting the white man with was actually built by a black man in protest at the white man's neglect. grin Note how the colonialists only set up a 'commisssion' to 'look into' the possibility of establishing universities a year before they were to relinquish power. Why didn't they do this in 1922? Or 1932? We would have been a more experienced nation in terms of learning, governance, technology etc today. In South Africa they set up the first universities as early as the 1890s!! Many more in the 1910s and 1920s. And you're wondering why South Africa is more developed than Nigeria. This is why we say you need to assess these things from a historical perspective, or you'll just see things on a surface level, and walk around feeling inferior to other nations and races, whom you think are ''doing better'' than you.

University of Ibadan was known as University College Ibadan, a collegiate attachment to the University of London. It granted University of London degrees! It wasn't a full fledged university until after independence in 1962.

University of Nigeria Nsukka was founded in October 7 1960 by the Eastern Region govt led by Dr Nnamdi Azkikiwe, AFTER independence. There was no full fledged Nigerian university until African rule was established.
Thanks for the enlightenment,believe me I appreciate it...but I still score our leaders low,if during the colonial era,they wanted great amenities and infrastructural facilities,trust me,thoughtful leaders would have thought of a way to get it...even if they wanted to do it on their own as an independent nation,since 1960,minus d civil war and military interruptns (since citizens had no say during dt period),shudnt there av been giant strides towards achieving the dream of independence...look,d true dividends and benefits of independence still remains a mirage amidst abject poverty,outrageous corruptn,gross disregard for rule and law and the incapability to enforce absolute and honest delivery of justice....honestly sir,we can do way more better than we are doin today...I see our leaders on TV today saying one thing yet their very actions are anti-national prosperity...I will never score our leaders high or well,they av let d people down,they av let the nation down,they av let d dream/hope of the fighters of independence down...think on these things bro....I believe in cutting ppl some slack...but that should be after attaining/fulfilling a significant threshold of collective achievements....

I have no time for colonized fools who wish to return to colonialism and maybe even slavery. People who think like that are a disgrace to this continent and do not deserve the modern life they currently enjoy, made possible by the black govts they disrespect so much. They should be kicked back to the colonial era so they can queue up barefoot on dusty roads like their forbears, smiling and waving illiterate hands as colonial officers cruise by in their Rolls, and from there, back to their palm wine tapping/chicken rearing duties, since that is what they prefer over the modern life given to them by black govts.. I have no apologies for my disdain for such sick, ignorant people.
Look,I am nt saying ur comments are wrong and devoid of objectivity,..no,far from it,I do nt support colonialism or slavery,..but honestly,u seem to absolve our leaders like they've been doing it right all along..South Africa suffered in the times of apartheid,...india got it tough with the British etc...our leaders are nt any better,I wasn't born in d colonial era neither in d early post colonial era,the British were brutal and most of our leaders then working with the british such as the community leaders,district head,local sheriffs were in turn carrying out the commands of their slave masters who they should av kept at bay,protect their people from the harsh slave drivers but no,what did they do,they sold their own ppl except for some few ppl who stood up for what is right...King Jaja of Opobo is one...nobody is saying the colonial era was the good old days,let me say this,you keep saying the colonial masters didn't do anything,they didn't build universities,do u knw that the premier universities,UI,OAU,UNN were built in the colonial era,do u knw dt?...one would think that the leaders who took charge after d colonial masters left were ready for d job @ hand and had the same dream those who fought for independence had,Tafawa Balewa,Nnamdi Azikiwe,Obafemi Awolowo and so many of them,but no dey didn't,ur so called good leader Yakubu Gowon said Nigeria had so much money,the only problem was how to spend it...most of the existing infrastructures we have today was built by the colonial masters..there is no way I will support our present crop of leaders...no way madam.

So how would you have liked the succeeding Nigerian post colonial govts to build ''standard missionary schools'' instead of the 130 full fledged universities we have today? Are you really so ignorant that you think missionary secondary schools are an adequate replacement for universities?




So how would you like the present govt to say ''ok, no universities in Nigeria. If you want to go to university, travel abroad!''. You would be the first to abuse them. But white rulers did it, so they get a pass in your book. SOMETIMES I THINK SOME OF YOU WERE CURSED TO TURN DUMB & STUP.ID wherever whites are concerned.



I got an education for starters. YOUR education was wasted because you still think like a slave even though you've been set free. Cocoa, palm oil etc are doing well, and the monies are not being deposited in London as was the case under your colonial masters.




But you said it was ok for the whites to just build missionary schools for you. So what are you looking at top 100 universities for?




South Africa was already a developed nation by the 1940s, because the apartheid regime invested its resources in the country, unlike what the colonial regime did in Nigeria (ie siphon resource earnings to London). The problem in Nigeria was not that the whites were not there long enough. It was that they were there for 63 years and did virtually NOTHING for our development, which was why we were a grossly underdeveloped nation with almost non-existent infrastructure at independence in 1960 despite their exporting our resources for huge profits annually for 63 years prior.



You sound like a VERY big fool.



Without independence you would be a hunter of rabbits and cockroaches, or a tailor, or a shoemaker, or a carpenter. Nothing more. Tell me. What was your grandfather's job?
your replies to that skentele lady makes me cringe,nt with just fear but with abject shock @ how you kept using unnecessary harsh words on an online forum discussion,it is too bad,are you a robot,honestly speaking,I couldn't make head or tails of ur point,she was saying d colonial masters shud av stayed longer,you are saying they overstayed their welcome and did nothing for us....I dnt want to get in the way of ur argument,but to be honest,you are wrong in replying to dt lady in d way and manner..if I were d mods,I will ban you without thinking twice....I know you will reply with an insult,but u c,I dnt give two rats behind.
