 Education › Re: Sex For Grades: BBC Set To Expose More Nigerian Lecturers by ProfessorBola: 11:08am On Oct 08, 2019 |
UniportAgbero:Well from what i have experienced in Lecturing in Nigeria and being a visiting Lecturer in Europe and Asia, i can't see to much difference in the Degree Programme for say economics, accounting offered say in South Bank University, London and Covenant University, Ota. Apart from universities that are called "Red-Brick Uni's" in the UK or "Ivy League Uni's" in the USA, the level of teaching, comprehension, assimilation of course material and student acumen is the same in Nigeria, USA and UK. You can download the Modules/Course Works/Curriculum of most Europe/North America Universities online now in "Pdf" so you can compare and contrast with Nigerian University curriculum in the Area's of Social Science, Engineering, Bio-Medical, etc to see if their is any great difference in advancement. I do agree that in the area of Research and Development i.e Graduate Schools these places such as Europe and North America may be ahead of Nigeria, but on the Basic Under-graduate Level, the Curriculum is mostly the same globally, the Delivery of course content and in-depth explaination may defer as most Universities in Abroad tailor the course delivery to events happening in current times i.e if you are studying Economics or Finance in a European Universities the course material will in-corporate issues such as the Financial Crises of 2007-08, Brexit, The Arab Spring 2010-11 and its effect on energy markets global in terms of supply and demand etc |

Ibile77:I agree, what i am trying to explain is that we have independent news outlets now like Sahara TV, OakTV, Channels TV etc who can report on these issues now and the barrier of entry into News/Media has been reduced due to Information Technology such as the internet and social media, Start up media companies don't require so much capital now, just a laptop, internet connection and some media equipment i.e microphone, camera etc. We as Nigerians can build their own media channel and work on marketing and building a strong plant-form. Relying on foreign media to do a Job that Nigerians can do now to ensure accountability and fairness in society has a negative downside when that Foreign media entity wants to conduct propaganda against the host state that it is reporting stories in like BBC in Nigeria. Lets not fool ourselves BBC is a media outlet arm of the British Government so it will push a narrative that is in the Long term of benefit to Britain. 1 Like |

stormborn28:Can we at a basic level agree that if our State and Federal Universities were improved up to the level of standard at Covenant University Ota that this would lead to more students staying back in Nigeria for their Under-graduate Studies and not seeking under-graduate studies in Ghana, South Africa, Southern Asia i.e Indian, Malaysia, Australia , Europe and North America. |

stormborn28:The Rise of Private Education in Nigeria Especially since the Late 1990's has been a result of the decline in the resource provision and general upgrade standards in the Public Sector of Education. Universities Like Covenant, Madonna, Leeds etc would not exist if the State and federal sector of University education was progressing in terms of Facility, resource and infrastructure maintenance and development. So if Nigeria keeps on producing more universities like Covenant University, this will result in less Nigeria students seeking foreign education basically at the Under-graduate level. That just common logic. |

GeniusDavid:He has a point...when in 2011-12, 1200 African students 80% who were Nigerians were removed from Universities in North London because they said they where coming into the country as students but not finishing their degree's and it affected nearly 600 Nigerian students who had to leave and look for other schools to accept them to finish their degree programme where was the BBC then?...it just a case of them dictating to you and when its their country you should accept their decisions.... 1 Like |

Dshocker:No don't get mislead...The Universities are just responding to what BBC Media is doing as a reaction to so called International Attention. We should not allows a foreign media house i.e the BBC to be the one dictating in terms of public reaction to issues reported on in Nigeria...we have a National Assembly, A Judiciary, A Investigative Disciplinary Panel in Nigerian Universities...They should be doing the work of upholding fairness and justice in our Country Nigeria |

diasporaman:What is not good about people who report this stories sometimes are the grossly exaggerated claims i.e "Nigeria is becoming like Yemen" That is a statement of pure childishness and ignorance on the part of the poster via twitter. Does he even know what is going on in Yemen in terms's of the conflict which is happening there? 2 Likes 1 Share |

Omoslim26:You are correct that the government officials in South Africa are taking bribes from the Drug Lords but everyone know that the Indians, Pakistani's and alot of the Asians in South Africa control about 95% of the Whole Saled drug raw materials i.e opium coming into south Africa, they run this business and use most of they called "Colored People" in south africa to distribute the drugs...why is it that most of the Top Police Officers investigating the drug trafficking in South Africa are mostly Asian-South African Policemen....they know their people are the culprits but nobody scape-goats them |
