Sincerely, aside courses that require lab there is no much difference between any Nigerian university and her South African counterpart. The other significant difference is introduced when you factor in stable electricity, Internet and then if you are fortunate tutorials and maybe funding.

It will be unwise for a Nigerian to leave his or her comfort zone and come here to study say political science or do a desktop based research. With sci-hub and electricity one can comfortably conduct research that will meet the standards of Q1 journals. This is on the basis that there is no funding and one want to self fund. However, if one secures funding it's not a bad idea to come and do research and ball at the same time. One can also use sa as a launch pad to Europe or other elite destinations without much hassles.

Nigeria has the potential to match these guys anytime especially when you see what some select research hubs in covenant and ui and unn are doing. Rather than helping these south african universities gain visibility, Nigerians can bring our universities to limelight. Unfortunately the old eggs in the system won't allow for such as it would expose their laziness and inability to conduct research.

Scholarships out of Nigeria are not bad especially if they are full. The exposure will help reset many destinies.

"Go east go west, home is the best"

Any graduate from Nigerian university may not be the best in book but will end up being the best in common sense..

You can't tell me that those foreign mediocre universities are better than our beloved OAU, UNN, UI, UNILAG, FUTO, UNIBEN, ABU, UNIJOS, even ESUT, lai lai I no go gree.

Stop spending your money going abroad for schooling. What can they teach you that our own profs and docs can't? Will they open your head and pour book inside?

Highest is they will dash you grade you did not even merit so that others will come and patronize them.

Appreciate the Nigerian aluta struggle. E worth am..

Going for studies abroad is a means many Nigeria use to escape unemployment and poverty in Nigeria. .

U can see how millions of Nigerian graduates can't even get 30k Npower job.....

You people shouting SA is sooo dangerous for foreigners bla blabla should chill abeg. The annoying part is that half of the persons saying this have never even been there. SA has its ups and downs just like any other country. Yes there is xenophobia but that doesn't mean going there automatically means you're dead. I'm not dead and no one has threatened to kill or arrest me for being Nigerian. If you're clean,honest,respectful and not doing any shady shît...the people treat you well. You guys should just stop. This place is great. It's common sense to stick to the urban and metropolitan parts of a country as a foreigner. Go to the interior parts...OYO.

Why would South Africans be jealous of economic refugees?

We don't see you as a competition,rather as a plague that destroyed their own country with corruption

There's nothing wrong with sourcing scholarship to study in an African country and yes, SA got good schools. Top 1000 globally.

Hypocritical as it gets!

Nothing significant yet you mentioned a functioning environment? What else is significant than that?

If Nigerian schools are comparable to SA universities, how many (Nigerian) dominate rankings' lists in Africa? You should learn to write factually!

Nonsensical!

If they are so good, why do they not dominate rankings? South African universities dominate in ranking agencies' (QS, ARWU and The Times Education) and quality of education goes beyond "what will they teach you?". It entails the quality of teaching, materials used, environment, citations, laboratories, funding for research, reputation, list of Nobel prizes, employability across global firms etc.

If Nigerian schools are good as you say, they should compete with South African universities. And in competing, they must improve on what constitute a good school.


South African university ranks.

Eish. Your response is uncalled for. I am in the final weeks of completing my thesis and I can say that it was all desktop research. Mind you my work which is by publication produced 8 Q1 journal papers. Now back in Nigeria folks I know are having same output back to back despite the lack of electricity and poor Internet facilities we always hype about.

The only difference BTW me and them is ease of mobility. While I won't stress to get visa they have to prove beyond all reasonable doubt why they should be given visas. We still apply for external funding and consultancy gigs and get same irrespective of location. So it is totally wrong of you to insinuate hypocrisy. I came here because of duration and my penchant for travel.
I've had all my degrees from different countries and there has been no fantastic addition except exposure to other ways of life and ease of mobility. Our more established scholars at AP and Prof status back in Nigeria are on cruise control.

My post was balanced and if you read it completely you would see that I tried to cover both extremes.
