Re: Give Me 3 Reasons Why Your Alma Mater Is Better Than "The Den" by Nobody: 6:18pm On Sep 24, 2015 |
OrlandoOwoh:no need mentioning, unn has produced more professors than OAU, even when I was in UI, we had more lecturers from UNN than OAU. Check the list of fellows, UNN have more fellows. I know the likes if Charles soludo, Dora akuyinli, Godwin emefiele, Ibe kachukwu, ike ekweremadu, ..........the list is very long |
Re: Give Me 3 Reasons Why Your Alma Mater Is Better Than "The Den" by Nobody: 6:20pm On Sep 24, 2015 |
Aareonakakanfo:unn has more elite than OAU, stop arguing blindly. Only Ibadan can beat uNN. |

Re: Give Me 3 Reasons Why Your Alma Mater Is Better Than "The Den" by OrlandoOwoh(m): 6:21pm On Sep 24, 2015 |
menabadoo:You're lied that UI has more professor from UI than OAU. |
Re: Give Me 3 Reasons Why Your Alma Mater Is Better Than "The Den" by Nobody: 6:25pm On Sep 24, 2015 |
OrlandoOwoh:its not a lie, ask anybody. |
Re: Give Me 3 Reasons Why Your Alma Mater Is Better Than "The Den" by OrlandoOwoh(m): 6:32pm On Sep 24, 2015 |
menabadoo:I don't need to ask anybody: I graduated from OAU, and know that there is an "exchange" of lecturers between OAU and UI. The closeness between both schools makes it earsier for lecturers of OAU to do their sabbatical in UI. UI lecturers also come to OAU for the same purpose. |
Re: Give Me 3 Reasons Why Your Alma Mater Is Better Than "The Den" by SonOfEl(m): 7:17pm On Sep 24, 2015 |
OrlandoOwoh: you know what....leave nairaland, go and investigate, no need dragging anything. besides I still do not accept that UI had more alumni than UNN, UI started awarding degrees in 1965, while UNN started awarding in 1964. |
Re: Give Me 3 Reasons Why Your Alma Mater Is Better Than "The Den" by SonOfEl(m): 7:20pm On Sep 24, 2015 |
menabadoo: again, my friend, its not true. don't allow the western lagos-ibadan press to deceive you. UI started churning graduates in 1965, while UNN started churning a year or two earlier. before then it was university of London certificate that was issued to students of university college Ibadan. Google it sir. |
Re: Give Me 3 Reasons Why Your Alma Mater Is Better Than "The Den" by OrlandoOwoh(m): 7:25pm On Sep 24, 2015 |
SonOfEl:Guy, I been to UNN and UNEC. OAU started awarding degrees in 1965. Prof. Itse Sagay got his LLB that year. |
Re: Give Me 3 Reasons Why Your Alma Mater Is Better Than "The Den" by OrlandoOwoh(m): 7:28pm On Sep 24, 2015 |
SonOfEl:That is not true. Certificates issued then bore "University College, Ibadan" on them. |
Re: Give Me 3 Reasons Why Your Alma Mater Is Better Than "The Den" by SonOfEl(m): 7:31pm On Sep 24, 2015 |
OrlandoOwoh: it was gotten and signed by the senate of the London university on it. I don't need to argue about that. achebe clarified that since. |

When she and her progeny roar the other. "animals" in the "zoo" shivers. UNN producing great lions and lionesses since the birth of Nigeria. The closest rivals are UI in terms of quality products and ABUTH in terms of geographical size and beauty...OAU is not in her class. Her early combination of British and American systems via introduction of GS which was later adopted by NUC trashed UI's British system bias. UNN boasts of highest number of faculties and department among all, research institutes and centers. We parade great masquerades in science, arts and medicine... RSVP Mr and Mrs. PN and FN Okeke (professors) physics and astronomy Dr. Mr and Dr. Mrs. Onwuasigwe (professors) medicine I can mention twenty of such renowned pairs. 1 Like |
