CodeTemplar:
You talk like a baby with a weak brain sha...
It is even unilag grads who boast about the sorting that they do in unilag whenever they are trying to justify why making good grades is harder in their school, so what nonsense are you talking about?
You talk as though people associated with covenant uni weren't in the society before going there.

When you guys were doing the bulk of the reputational damages by claiming sorting, discrimination, and cultism gives a unilag grad advantage over grads of private uni grads, where were you then?
When your people were mockery high level of good grades in CU were you sleeping then or what about the dress-code mockery ?

Better don't let me start with you today. This is a new year pal.

ok

darfay:
There is no such rubbish in Unilag. Everything to you people is covenant uni

You're right bro.. everything to these people is private vs public university, and it's sickening.
Especially the dumbass you quoted and another oaf called codetemplar (this one is actually worse)..

Every uite knows sorting is impossible.. Nobody even talks about it, you can't talk about what's not gonna happen... I don't know where he saw his imaginary 'lecturer' friend.

TheVictorious:
Did I just see you mentioned OAU? guy wake up we are talking about THE, not webometrics.

TheVictorious:
True. And mind you that of last year is higher than that of UI!

HigherEd created a post on that not too long ago.. I think covenant was behind oau and ui in the overall output.

HigherEd:
Thevictorious it is exciting seeing CU rank equal with the likes of Coventry and co. This ranking would usher in unprecedented amounts of grants, funded scholars and foreign collaborations. With the rate at which CU is going it would break into top 400 next year.

true.. I saw somewhere that the research output they have made as at September this year, is more than their total research output for last year already..

good to see them setting the standard for other universities to catch up with..

TheVictorious:
CU: 637, UI: 676.

Pulse has also published: https://www.pulse.ng/communities/student/covenant-university-is-among-top-700-universities-in-the-world-id8905970.html

make sense.. I bet they are ranked than some foreign universities Nigerians run to..

nice to see covenant university achieve this feat within few years.. this shows that it is a school with vision..

where's oau btw.. it's almost like nothing goes on in that place again.. except for its students shouting oba awon university about..

TheVictorious.. can you provide the specific positions of ui and covenant university.. since u claim ui is now in second position.

HigherEd:
Lastly I have said it consistently that as long as Private Universities continue to employ these group of dimwits lecturers produced by a disastrous public education, some of the horrendous issues that are prevalent in public universities would rear its ugly head in the private sector.

There is a huge difference I have seen between lecturers bred inside Covenant university (or Private Universities), Foreign trained(partially or fully) and fully trained Nigerian public university lecturers... I recommend that private universities should immediately stop employing Lecturers with MSC and PhD from public Nigerian universities. Apart from the fact that they aren't technically sound they also have a poor working ethic. Private bred nigerian university lecturers are way more courteous, interactive and kind - I have been lectured by at least eight of them. While foreign trained are simply awesome - I have also been taught by a few myself.

I now share Oyedepo's sentiment in wanting to let his university operate only with her own Graduates in a few years time. Foreign lecturers should also be employed...
Ask AUN they don't deal with this kind of nonsense...

very flawed conclusion... like the sexual predator, Olumuyiwa Oludayo, went to any public university.

The guy said the only 'crime' he committed in his entire stay in school is wearing traditional attire to last Sunday service..

there is a rule against that?

There is nothing i won't see in this country.. This is a whole new level of absurdity.

Ui.. 114 departments?
what departments are they referring to here?

THIS VIDEO SHOWS HOW ADEBOYE MAKES MONEY OFF PEOPLE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8zZWvvaEaY

Most of ur posts are directed towards pastor Adeboye.. Looking through ur posts, I could sense pure hate. Why this hate for a fellow human?

U know people don't give a fvck about ur videos. So I'll advice u to stop spamming all threads that have to with him with ur demeaning videos.

If u have a problem with tithe collection, simply go to a church that wouldn't demand tithe from u.. And stop trying to shove ur opinion down our throat..

iluvpomo:
Oga, I asked you for proof and you stumbled and yet you call me a troll??
By online forum, is NL considered a source of what is proper? I hope not
If you are not willing to discuss this analytically then why engage?
Rape is never an acceptable term in any context. Prove me wrong if you are not trolling ...

All the best fun e o.. ur case is different.

iluvpomo:
That is fine. I already congratulated Barca on their deserved win. I’m stating the fact about rape.
I challenged you to show me a source where “rape” is used to indicate dominance of one sports team over another - I await your findings .....

Baba.. He wasn't writing an official report of what happened. As it shows in my last post.. it can be used as a slang to show dominance. This is an online forum, and the use of slang is not forbidden. Interactions here are unofficial.
The usage of such word is not wrong.. especially in the context he used it..

On another note.. It seems like u're trolling.

iluvpomo:
I agree murder is used as a strong term... rape is not ... Rape is never used.
Show me when Rape is used/glorified? Please do.

I believe he used the word 'rape' to describe the extent of the action..

verb (rapes, raping; past and past participleraped)
To force sexual intercourse or other sexual activity upon another person, without theirconsent.
To abuse an object in an extreme manner.
(slang) To dominate in a contest.

U don't want to appear wrong...
Are u a chelsea fan? if you are, then I understand the reason behind ur action.

iluvpomo:
You are free to use that term... does not mean it is acceptable in civilized societies (or that you are not a crètin for implying that Messi is a rapist.)

What about murder? e.g Messi murdered chelsea..
Does that make Messi a murderer? Or is rape a more offensive word than murder?
Na wa o

So for ur village.. na yellow card dey give player suspension. Suarez will start alongside Messi this evening.

The title is misleading kinda..
And just because he is two goals (15) shy of the goals Messi had (17) at the time of the year when he became the highest goal scorer in a calendar year (91 goals), doesn't necessarily mean he'll go on to break it..

Messi himself has 13 goals this year already. If there's anyone that'll break that record.. It'll be Messi himself.

femidejulius:
Wonderful nonsense

There's nothing wrong having a Masters Degree at the age of 21 without any job experience if possible.

You can always go for other masters degree when you start work if you like.

That's what the o.p suggested. You can go for your masters immediately if you're below 23 and no job is forthcoming.

SONofnezzar:
Hate him or love him....He's simply the best

Not like a tap in footballer

His goal was also kind of a tap in..

...

So a session in ur school is 5 months? or how else will u explain how u'll resume in January and u'll end the session by may..

I won't say anything sha.. I'll reserve it for the next poster..

emmasege:
For your info, I'm a Federal employee teaching undergraduates like you. Your extended family would've been very proud if they had someone like me. Let's see where your nauseating attitude gets you in life.

Please, don't dignify that guy with a response again.

enairaprof:
Yeah, same applies to latest 5.0 scale

A is 70% and above
B is 60 - 69
C is 50 - 59
D is 45 - 49
F is 0 - 44

There is no more third class.

UI just started the 4.0 scale with the 2016/17 fresh students.
My point is that you need an overall CGPA of 85% in UI to have a first class but in other universities you need 90%.

Can you imagine many intelligent students who graduated with CGPA between 85% and 90% and were awarded second class while they could have got first class grade in a school like UI. Harmonisation should be done by NUC

Like I said, ur analysis is flawed. Hope u know some people who graduated with 4.4 and the likes might be on a fairly good second class upper if converted to the 7.0 scale.

Have u considered if most of the 4 points they had is between 60-64?.. or the 3 points they had is between 50-54.. which if converted to the 7.0 scale will give u less grade than expected..

So it's not enough to divide 4.5 by 5.. They both have their strengths and their weaknesses..

I'm done here...

Virtuoso89:
You misunderstood him. He is saying it is easier to graduate with a firstclass degree from UI than with schools using the 5.0 system and he is right.

Emphasis on FIRST CLASS.

Same way it's easier to have second class upper in other universities..

I won't argue on whether or not it's easy to make a first class in ui.. If anyone thinks it's easy, he should obtain utme form, ensure he gets admitted and we'll see how it'll turn out after four years.

enairaprof:
When has weak or strong become part of grade.

You will agree with me that the grading system should be harmonised.

In as much as I agree with you that it should be harmonised, ur points are not enough to prove that the 5.0 grading system places students at disadvantage than the 7.0 grading system.. a '50' score will deal a huge blow to the cgpa of a first class student in ui than in other universities..

Besides, I don't know ur emphasis on the old grading system.. ui now uses 4.0 grading system.

And u also mentioned that 4.0 is the same as 7.0..
The 4.0 grading system is of disadvantage to students than both 5.0 and 7.0 grading system, especially average students. There must be significant number of As in the result of the students to come out with good second class. check http://ui.edu.ng/news/re-newly-approved-grading-system-and-minimum-units-be-registered-and-passed-students-each-level to see how to calculate.. use whatever scores u wish and tell me which is harder.

The new 4.0 grading system also comes with increased average minimum units to be taken at each level.. and other criteria which makes it more cumbersome..


In the light of this, it will be fair on ur own part to create a thread (or to delete this one) to tell us how ui is being cheated by other universities using the 5.0 grading system..

enairaprof:
This is not about supporting one university above another, if the same Nigerian system produces us, then we should be graded with the same yardstick. Check this out for clarification

Level of Performance Rating (credit points per unit)
•A (70-100%) – 5
•B (60-69%) – 4
•C (50-59%) – 3
•D (45-49%) – 2
•E (40-44%) – 1
•F (0-39%) – 0

◦First Class: 4.50 and above
◦Second Class Upper: 3.50-4.49
◦Second Class Lower: 2.50-3.49
◦Third Class: 1.50-2.49

For 7 CGPA course unit system (UI):
•A (70-100%) – 7
•A- (65-69%) – 6
*B+ (60-64%) - 5
*B (55-59%) - 4
*B- (50-54%) - 3
*C+ (45-49%) - 2
•C (40-44%) – 1
•F (0-39%) – 0

◦First Class: 6.0 and above
◦Second Class Upper: 4.6-5.9
◦Second Class Lower: 2.6-4.5
◦Third Class: 1.6-2.5
◦Pass: <1.6

For a student Name- Olawale, Musa Emeka, his Class of Grade will be affected by the above system giving the same performance? Base on my analysis below, it means it is easier to get first class using 7 course unit system than 5 course unit system giving the same performance? You can make your contribution and correct me where you think i'm wrong but please be OBJECTIVE!

OLAWALE, Musa Emeka in UI:

Course Unit Grade Points
Apc 101 3 68 18
Pdp 102 3 67 18
Cpc 103 3 65 18
Npp 104 3 65 18

Total load unit 12

Total Number of Units 12
Total Number of Points. 72
GPA = 72/12 = 6.0

The difference is clear!

see how clever u are to have used figures between 65 and 69..
well let me help u..
