When i first entered the school once i tell people i am in microbiology they feel sorry for me cuz they will always say our lecturers are sadist .
Our seniors hyped mcb exams.
Las las i saw nothing special in it .

Finally hilltop is overrated.

Big-for-nothing University.
They allowed it to rot.
There was one lecturer in engineering I never liked.
That man was a terror.
Dr. C. C Osuagwu!!!

Point of correction, Nnamdi Azikiwe was a ceremonial President because Nigeria was running a parliamentary system.

A ceremonial President is basically a glorified receptionist to the Prime Minister who is the Head of State. In other words, Nnamdi Azikiwe was a glorified receptionist to Tafawa Balewa

None of the towns/villages you mentioned share any boundary with the campus/ school.

You just used google. Just admit you dont even known anywhere near the town.
UNN is Obukpa, Nsukka and Orba land.

Medical Center belonged to a man called Emperor. His current house is adjacent Ejima junction. I remember when I was small when UNN compensated him for the house with a huge amount of money. That was where he used to live.

Faculty of Agriculture farm is Orba land, Obukpa and Nru Nsukka land. Locals from these three communities formed a great majority of junior staff in the faculty of Agriculture at inception of UNN. That is what they used to compensate them.

Engineering is Obukpa. Education Ihe/Owerre. That is why UNN is called Egu Ihe by locals. Egu Ihe means farm for Ihe people.

Odim and all those junior staff quarters side are all Obukpa, same with Stadium and boys hostel.

Umunkanka is a village in Nsukka. The villagers used to live there before they were relocated to their present locations in Amukwa and Behind flat. The current director of works in UNN, Engr Onyishi is from Amukwa and was born in Umunkanka.

Lol. I was born and brought up in the school environment. Can't expose myself here. Do your research. Those streets inside the school, like Cartwright etc, which Nigerian bears those names? Start from researching the names of the HOD's of different departments in the school from inception,so as to clear your doubt.

Be humble enough to accept what you dont know, and learn.
Hmmm... okay. Needless argument.

The lions are always brothers.

Stay well,my brother.

We graduated over four decades ago.

Obviously, you have issues with comprehension and it is not my job to teach you the basics. As for knowing UNN or not, I am very sure, that you have not being to any of the aforementioned universities except UNN - so you have no idea how a decent school should look like…..

Post UNN hostels here let’s see. From Odili (PG Hall) to Nkrumah to Alvan Ikoku to Njoku hostel…. Post them let’s see. You can also post thee lecture/classroom halls….

Go out so your eyes go open and you go see how university suppose look like
You have skewed mindset. So,no amount of explanations will convince you.

But I know you are writing from mindset of prejudices. You don't know UNN and you have not been there. Hardly any university in Nigeria I never visited to resolve one problem or the other.

So, your post is full of ignoramuses. Devoid of any practical facts. You need to learn and appreciate Truth always. Not with bias minds.

I insist UNN surpasses those universities you mentioned in terms of infrastructure and academic attainment.

You could argue with the Marines!

We were the first set of ladies at Ziks Flat. Now, I heard the place is a show of itself. I think the want to do a JV with it or something. I also stayed at Transit Camp which I consider the best hostel.
