No wonder you are defending covenant university up and down. Oga, you are pointless, all private universities are for those that couldn't get admitted into public universities. Stop defending indefendable. I have a guy in covenant right now, he pnly went there when he could not secure admission into OAU and Futa respectively. Na him parent money kill am.
So you mean those 16/17 year olds who got admitted to private unis started applying at the age of 14.
You are typical public uni grad.

What is the point if a jambite who couldn't score 200 goes to a private uni and graduates a better person mentally and morally compared to his peers who could score 200 and graduated from public uni ?
There is no point because he won't.

There was no private uni when Oyedepo, Oyakhilome, and Adeboye were graduating. Your reasoning is pathetic.

Eleyi brutal gan o

Well Covenant university has always been the first University to matriculate students for each new academic sessions in Nigeria for over Five-Ten years now. CU screening was done in June/July this year and when WAEC was released in August/September the admission list came out in same September.

The 2017/2018 CU matriculation was done in October 2017 with 40% of total applicants admitted, Of which 90% of total applicants are usually first time jambites of about 15-17 years of age. Babcock, ABUAD and Landmark also did their matriculations in November 2017. That says something crucial about those four universities-they are not waiting for Public University "left overs" and their students were not interested in public universities to begin with.

However most other private universities don't get enough students and have to wait till next year when public universities would have bounced a lot of ppl who would then seek Private Unis. So the argument of Ppl going to private universities when they are not able to get into public ones is only relevant to private universities like Samuel adegboyega, lead city, kolaidaisi, Christopher uni, McPherson uni, Acheivers uni and lately Igbinedion.

Private Universities like Covenant, AUN, Landmark, ABUAD, Baze, Babcock are known brands who get more than enough applications than they need.

I Graduated from Covenant and I would proceed to University of Luxembourg for Masters in Wealth Creation. I would choose Hebron now, again and again forever if I had to do it again.

A Counter Thread!

Incredibly Poor Quality of Education
Public Universities in Nigeria undeniably have the poorest quality of education. From too large classes with poor teaching aids to very poorly equipped laboratories to non existent academic support-Public Universities in Nigeria are the exact definition of HOW NOT TO RUN A UNIVERSITY.
In comparison private universities have smaller classes-which gives lecturers the ability to teach, impact and follow up Knowledge transfer. Also According to former NUC President, Peter Okebukola Covenant University has the highest per capita investment having spent 70 billion on 13,000 graduates as at 2013. According to NUC, about 40% of Equipment in ABUAD Mechatronics Dept are not present in any other public University. Also the President of Biotechnology Society of Nigeria also commented that Covenant university has the best Biology(Molecular Bio lab) in all of Nigeria.

Public Universities aid Criminality
Who doesn't know that Lautech is the Den of Internet Fraudsters? Public Universities generally aid all sorts of vices that are never found in Private Universities e.g Cultism, Cyber fraud, Sexual Assault etc. In contrast Private Universities are the true certifiers of "Character and Learning" - Students are monitored closely and there are huge consequences to erring which serves as deterrence to possible future offenders.
Also 99% of the Corrupt politicians in public service today graduated from public universities and started their criminality way from School. Have you heard of claims of OAU SUG looting association funds? Have you ever heard Covenant, Landmark and Abuad SUG loot anything even though they equally handle millions?

Poor Academic Support
Students of Public Schools are discouraged from succeeding in life - they are taught not to aspire for the best and if they do they are cut down. Many public universities take glory in depriving students of their deserved grades even though foreign universities like imperial college graduates about 41% of their graduating class as First class in their last convocation ceremony. This invariably affects the pysche of most graduates of public universities that they develop a sort of Stockholm syndrome where they actually appreciate the abuse and allow it foster where they eventually get to work. They end up believing that Stress is equal to Quality.Today most private universities have about 10% first class rate which is very encouraging.

Erratic and Poor Campus Conditions
From poor power supply, to poor residential arrangement to careless citing of Academic infrastructure. Public Universities are once again the way not to run a Universities. Many public universities house people on campuses like feral rats. Much of their residences are not fit for criminals in saner climes. Their libraries are usually deficit of good books and the ones available are usually torn.

Unstable Academic Calander
The only thing as unstable as public universities calendar is Nigeria's electricity supply. Public universities are erratic and complicated. If it is not ASUU it is NASU or NAAT or whatever. This is the complete opposite in private universities where staff development is prioritised and the lecturers can teach at their best rather than concentrating on teaching and imparting and not when next to have a show down with govt.

.







Mr Private University, do you know that 99% of the students in private universities are the children of the so called corrupt politicians you mentioned in ur point number 2. So know that what goes around comes around , steal money meant for the public schools to build , own or send their children to private universities. Therefore for information sake Mr. anything you see in any private university in Nigeria both living and non living is a product of corruption. Go verify Thank me later

If you attended a private University, it's simply 'cause you were privileged. Anything that has advantages equally has disadvantages but you didn't mention any of the latter but did a comparison between both schools. Don't tell me private Universities don't breed criminals. In terms of standard, I'll give it to the private universities but they do employ mediocre lecturers which will never happen in a public uni .

That last sentence is sooooooo true,my parents listed sacked crooks from public universities that ran there to lecture and are currently occupying top positions

Ok now compare this post done by the product of a private Nigerian university with that crap posted earlier by a product of public, do you all now see difference in sense. Public Nonsense

University education does not determine brain power or ability to write proper English. Bear that in mind, there was a CU graduate on one of those WWTBAM shows that did not know what a cockerel is.

Your secknary education is what determines one's ability to speak or write proper English. For instance, I am attending a public university, and my writings are as good as anything you could find anywhere else.

Never ever assume that University shapes the way people write, maybe it can affect reasoning to some extent, but that would have more to do with the calibre of people you meet as opposed to where you school.

I'm a CU student, and I totally agree with you there, its personal development and willingness to pursue knowledge that makes one really good. In fact, I have never seen English speaking or writing a proof of intelligence, except of cause its one field of study. I mean, its just a language for communication and not sophistication .

But then, you fail to realise what the person you quoted was driving at. A person wrote an article or argumentative essay what ever that post is called; with no reasonable point let alone a proper way of conveying a reasonable thought . You can say something with poor use of english , and say something with poor use of the brain (no offence) , which the fellow did; driving home no reasonable thought let alone numbers or facts to back up.

About the CU student in the video... People react differently under stress especially on screen, thats why some people study mass comunicat
