No doubt. It is the most beautiful university in Nigeria, closely followed by UNN.

It's beautiful because the facilities are not put into use. Most of them jump inside bush and behave uncivilized

Is it about being beautiful or the research works that have come out the universities. The inventions that they have come out with. The present research works they are doing. This is what universities are meant for

Melagros:
COMRADES, this statement or comment sounds political to me
Do you think this school deserves the recommendation by Iweala?

If you come here you will know that these pictures were just entrance to the school. ABU is one of the first class University when it comes in terms of infracture and high quality learning. Most of the best beautiful sight of the campus was not included like engineering department, medical science, social science, IAR Dept, Congo campus. Which one will mention and which one will leave. A visit to ABU CAMPUSES WILL AMAZED YOU SIMPLE.

Oginfluenza:
The Most Beautiful Campus in Nigeria, is Obafemi Awolowo University.

OAU can never be compared with ABU when it comes to infracture.

KomonSense:
I so much love and cherish ABU

This is the pride of the north?

As a Southerner i sought admision to study Medicine in early 2000's but was denied.

Everything in the school na merit.

No corner corner.



I wish UNN or U. I is as beautiful as this. . ,

Respect to ABU Zaria

I got admission there in 2001 as a south east candidate on merit having had the best jamb score in social sciences to study economics. Those on these and all those building we're there even as at that our set of 2001. I had the privilege to be there last week I was really AMAZED the level of more development and transformation the school has witnessed. Proud to an Abusite.

Maj196:
Typical, we like celebrating mediocrity

Typical internet language; Mediocrity, gaslighting, hypocrisy, nepotism, etc. Is ABU not beautiful?

Yet most of them like haram instead of focusing on science, physics, economics and skills acquisition, to develop their northern economy and people.

theforemost:
1. I see the quality roads with concrete pavements that are being built around the country by Dave Umahi led team. Anytime I’m going to my state I see it along Lokoja. When I get to my state, Ondo, I see the ongoing work along Ondo—Ore, I see it along Akure—Ado Ekiti, I see it in the coastal side of Ilaje, I see it along Ado Ekiti—Ikare and I am glad with the approval and flag off of the Ilesa—Benin road that will pass through Akure, our state capital. There has never been a time I witnessed that level of construction by the FG going simultaneously in my home state. And a similar thing is happening in Abuja where I am based too.

2. I see the progress of works being done on the Lagos—Calabar coastal highway as well as the Sokoto—Badagry superhighway. They’ll be the most outstanding infrastructure that our country will ever know. Serious infrastructure that we admire in foreign countries are beginning to spring up around us, and it makes me proud.

3. I have many examples of young people who have benefited from the Students Loans scheme. In the last one year, I don’t think I have heard story of any student that dropped out of school on account of their inability to pay. That’s a milestone achievement for this generation. It’s a big win for humanity. Someone like me who has in the past worked as the administrator of an NGO that people looked up to for help to pay school fees time to time, must appreciate this noble gesture, because in that regard, my eyes have seen and my ears have heard a lot of heartbreaking stories of events that reduce young people’s chances at life.

4. My Local Government Chairman has been executing projects that his predecessors could not carry out. When I inquired to know what’s responsible for that, I learnt there’s increased allocation to the LGA as a result of the autonomy fought for, and facilitated by President Tinubu. It’s not effective the way we want it to be yet, but evidently there’s improvement from what it used to be. Hopefully with persistent pressure from Tinubu, the third tier of government will break free from the hook of the state governments.

5. I live in Cadastral Zone, FO1 Main Estate, Kubwa, Abuja and I can confirm to you authoritatively that power supply has improved in my area. Same for my place in Alagbaka Akure. Therefore, although it comes at a higher cost but we are getting value for what we pay for—just like our mates that are living abroad. As a matter of fact, I gave out my generator to a Fulani friend, Yusuf Kembu, since last year—because I have no reason to keep it.

6. I see the far reaching reforms in the processing of our international passports such that over 200,000 backlog of applications that were left by Aregbesola were cleared within 3weeks, and today, we can apply for passport from the comfort of our home and it will take less than 2weeks to get it, unlike when we had to wait for 3-4months. I also see the various reforms being put in place by the ministry of interior to assist with border surveillance. In fact, this is the only time I know the ministry is living up to its responsibilities.

7. I see the digitization process at our airports. I was still at the Nnamdi Azikwe International Airport Abuja last week Tuesday. I noticed the infrastructure upgrade and enhanced security too.

8. I see the Federal Institute of Aviation Technology that’s about taking off in my state capital, and I am aware same is being replicated across the six geopolitical zones. Nigerians don’t necessarily have to travel abroad for studies in aerospace and aeronautics engineering.

9. I witnessed the takeover of our Ondo State University of Medical Sciences Teaching Hospital in Akure by the Federal Government in a bid to expand the infrastructure capacity, staff strength, medical supplies and efficiency—to deliver greater services. As a matter of fact, the work has started at the facility. And I am aware a similar thing is happening across many states.

10. I received higher dividends from my share investments in Nigerian companies. I can count a lot of my friends too who made unprecedented gains from their stocks in different Nigerian entities—an indication that our economy is viable and attractive to investors. Matter of fact, our foreign reserve too has increased by over 30%

11. With the new banks’ recapitalization, improved digitization in the financial sector as well as the new tax reforms, I see the direction the Tinubu government is going—a credit based economy that will uplift the standard of living of the citizenry, so that we can live the life we want today and pay tomorrow like it happens in advanced countries across the world.

We may not be there yet, but to deny that Nigeria is not moving in a direction that is promising, can only be as a result of two things—whether such commentator is not well informed or they’re denying the reality to suit their political sentiments.

You're a very sharp, intelligent Nigerian.

Great post.

Has any if you seen Covenant University?

bluefilm:
Some years back, I used to take so much pride in [my] University education

But in recent times, I don't even see myself consciously sending/ sponsoring someone to the university to acquire "education"

Because from the look of things nowadays, true true abeg who School epp?

School epp you my friend! But from your statement, maybe you must start afresh.

grandstar:
This is quite beautiful.

It is a pity core Northerners do not value Western education.

You people will just be talking crap.

All the school girls kidnapped by bandits were not attending school?

It's only Igbo and Yoruba that are in UDUS and BUK?

Agu James O thanks for inviting me here bro✊🏼

oga, nigeria can not get there if u dont tackle corruption. Make una dey waste una time. All presidents built roads . Infact, most of the roads we use today were built by even worse military rulers in this country
Some of us are smart not to fall for this madness of coasta road here and there.
Nigeria needs serious structural changes. She has money:
One, nigeria needs to create lasting job for her teeming population. So, Nigeria needs to work on three major stuff:
1: structural, Nigeria needs honest electoral reform that actually fixes the manipulations done during elections. If the citizens have confidence in their electoral system and elect the people they want, not those who can buy votes, use thugs to intimidate opponents, target uneducated people, etc. Once nigerian educated and well exposed people's vote can count, they will elect Leaders who will fear the masses and the leaders will deliver. Now, what we have are leaders who please god fathers, sitting presidents, governors, senators, etc. They dont give a Bleep about the masses becus they know how to rig election.
We have seen and heard politicians make bold comments about rigging elections here. One even mentioned how he took a governor to go and beg all the supreme judges who were to preside over their electoral jusgment. That alone in the US is an indictment. But he is working freely.
If u dont fix ur electoral system to allow democracy to work and also have enlightened citizens who will vote with senses, u cant make any fucking progress. That is why each president comes in and the orinary Nigerian still battles with poor electricity, pathetic healthcare system, over population, fraudulenet politicians, massive insecurity. Make una stop this una madness of Nigeria is heading to direction. Which fucking direction?
2: corruption needs to be made a capital offense, period. U steal public fund, u get to be hanged publicly. But to do this, Nigeria needs to first regionalized so that each region will handle their corrupt leaders without the influence of the president and kill the corrupt leaders. Corruption and waste are our biggest problem. Judges are corrupt, house of rep is corrupt. What u have is house of rep that says YES to everything the president does. It is more like we have president who is a King and has absolute power. That is wrong democracy.
3: Nigeria needs electricity madly. If the govt cant fix electricity, for now, it should invest in solar powered electricity for the citizens. Give business grant to do solar, give citizens grant to do solar or build solar grids. U jst have to dam fix this stuff. But if corruption is not fixed, even if u borrow 9 trillion billion dollars to fix electricity, it will still be stollen.
Like this now, no consequencies for looting Nigeria as an ex president, ex senator, ex governor, as long as u are on the side of the ruling president, u are cool. That is madness, that is people's sweat and blood una don steal for una generations.
4. Nigeria should drastically cut down on the pay checks and packages for politicians. We have no need of two house of reps since all they do is Say Yes to president, they cant challenge president, so, we should keep one and pay them less.
We should only support ex president and ex governors for only 10 years after service, others, only 5 years. Nigeria is broke, right? Why spend 100billion taking care of ex politicians?
Nigeria needs mad investments into science to start converting their raw materials into finished goods to use locally and export. There is no way any country can develop if she has no finished products to sell to the world. No magic around it.

It's due to how they seem to tolerate jihadists, who are against modernity, civility and progress.

Truly one of the best in the country with infrastructure but for the past religious crisis that dented her image, it would have gone places.

Everyone says otherwise

Listen to me and listen good because you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

I have a first degree in electrical engineering and a masters in telecommunication engineering with many professional certificates and many years post graduate experience. so I am speaking professionally.

What you posted is not a proof of anything. It is basically google algorithm responding to search by many users. If people search an item or question far more than others, google will start replying based on the hits of your search and it does not meant google have confirmed your belief and you could have deduced that from the reply that google gave you but you failed.

Unlike southerners, most northerners are not internet freaks and we don't spend out entire lives on the internet which explains why the search on Ahmadu bello University being the most beautiful university in Nigeria did not come up so much.

Frankly speaking, if this weak and lame argument is what you are presenting as proof of your belief, I can only say OAU is not just not as beautiful as ABU, Zaria. The OAU is also an academically weak university.

1. I would be committing a fallacy if I believed that whatever you say here means anything at all only because you listed the qualifications you claim to have. Bringing credentials in as a premise for your argument only exposes how shallow the reasoning of a supposed graduate of ABU can be (if you’re actually one).

2. Failing to understand how subjective and largely unquantifiable the term “beautiful” is and then concluding that any contrary opinion proves what you call “academic weakness” further exposes the intellectual shallowness of a supposedly decorated ABU graduate.

3. Average OAU students, graduates, and staff are most likely not different from average ABU students, graduates, and staff in areas such as internet use. So bringing in the idea that “northerners don’t use the internet” as the reason ABU is not regarded online as the most beautiful campus is a jaw-droppingly weak line of reasoning from a supposed ABU graduate. Because if that were true, the internet would not recognize ABU for anything at all. that is clearly not the case. ABU is well recognized online in other areas. So Internet usage did not affect those. This alone invalidates your logic. Guess all those papers didn’t teach you that.

4. Yes, online sources reflect human opinions and that is exactly the point. “Beauty” is an abstract and a subjective concept (beauty is in the eye of the beholder). It can only be understood through perception. When a large and diverse group of people consistently perceive OAU as the most beautiful campus, then it is accurate to say it is the most the most beautiful.
If you want to challenge this online data, then you have to bring verifiable data from your so-called non-internet users. Not this your bedroom analysis.

5. And FYI, Mr. Telecommunication Engineer: Google is merely a search engine. What I attached were responses from AI systems that synthesize and evaluate large volumes of existing human opinions, not just raw search hits. They do not create beauty standards, but they clearly reflect prevailing perceptions. Something you are struggling to grasp while confidently talking nonsense.

Many years ago I was looking for admission in southern universities, I spent two years at home writing jamb and applying yet no luck.

My father had something he was asked to do in ABU and asked me to accompany him there. That was when I saw the beautiful campus ( then Mahadi was the VC, that guy invested into the beauty of the campus with his flowers).

I saw the university and I went home and I told myself I was definitely coming to this university, I wrote jamb for the third time and I was given admission on merit. I didn't have to sort anyone , I just went to the board and voila my name was there

In the early 2000, ABU had a fair mix of all students from all the states and it was really an outgoing place. Social life was good and educational standards was high. While they have stopped using coins in the south, they accepted it in zaria. The. standard of living was very low. I remember how we were paying 90 naira for accomodation. They had many hostels that accommodated almost everyone except those in year 3. I cannot forget all the parties we hosted in zaria..... really fun times

Before I went to zaria, my folks were worried and where saying na "hausa school you wan go" but looking back, it's one of the best decisions I have made when it comes to education..... Generally, the school would force you to learn , except you don't want to graduate well

I have not been there for over a decade but I have seen some new infrastructural development springing up there and there and I am proud of them

If I have my way,I would not mind to have my kids school there too.

Kemetian:
