TheVictorious:
I'm sure you read why he didn't include any private school here or did you avoid that

Now before you continue to display your ignorance; profiles of all teaching and non teaching staff are listed on CU website. Let us do a quick check....

Open the website and check colleges, for each of the 5 listed check each department and click on staff list/profile, count the Profs and PHDs and make a sound comparison with your "great" OAU.

For Professors

College of Business and Social Sciences - 24 Follow link: http://covenantuniversity.edu.ng/Colleges/CBSS#.WO9YFfkrK01
College of Engineering - 24 Follow link: http://covenantuniversity.edu.ng/Colleges/COE#.WO9sofkrK00
College of Leadership Devt. Studies - 11 Follow link: http://covenantuniversity.edu.ng/Colleges/CLDS#.WO9XlfkrK00
College of Science & Technology - 33 Follow link: http://covenantuniversity.edu.ng/Colleges/CST#.WO9XmPkrK00

Total Professors: 92

Total no. of students by combined no. of available bed spaces: 9150 Link: http://covenantuniversity.edu.ng/About-Us/Student-Affairs#.WO9ev_krK00

Professor/student Ratio: 92/9150 = 1/99.46

So CU Professor-student ratio is approximately 1:100!


Now Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU)

Professors: 313 (you're really celebrating 313 profs for OAU??)
Students: over 35,000. (from Wikipedia). Even though we both know it's much higher than 40,000 by mere yearly admission statistics and total graduands each year. Let's still use 35K anyway.
Professor/student Ratio: 313/35000 = 1/111.82

So OAU Professor-student ratio is approximately 1:112!

Now, University of Ibadan (UI)

Professors: 292 (you're really celebrating 292 profs for UI?? SMH for you!)
Students: over 33,000. (from Wikipedia). Once again, we both know it's much higher than 40,000 by mere yearly admission statistics and total graduands each year. Let's still use 33K anyway.
Professor/student Ratio: 292/33000 = 1/113.01

So UI Professor-student ratio is approximately 1:113!.

I think you should be ashamed of yourself if you are comparing the professorship strength of such a new school with schools that have been since the days of Methuselah.

Besides, We all know that if we should start talking about the population of students of most of our federal universities at any given time, you should be talking of nothing less than 50 thousand and above. Don't be surprised if that of ABU, UNN, UniMaid and NOUN is close to 100,000 by now. So what the hell are you talking about

Cc: SoftP

OAU has 25,000 students at any given time (i'm 100% sure)

313/25,000=1/79.87

May God deliver Nigeria

EMEKA1MILLION:
I cant remember which game featured this location. Either call of duty or medal of Honor.. Can someone pls remind me?

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare

2 missions

All Ghillied up and the other one where you try to escape after sniping Imran Zakhaev.

I love Quora.

WriteBoy thanks for your writeup.

It was really enlightening and thought provoking.

As usual, a poorly written article without any form of proofreading.

SHOPPERS:
Like seriously?
So there can be a paid post on the frontpage afterall....

The thread title is misleading. This is not about comparison of the two, it is the explanation of one with prejudice to another.

No be only today, Same for that importexpert guy.

The problem is someone creates a thread like he is helping. They don't bother to check the contents. They just push it to front page.

Who'll take over the menial jobs left by the ones fleeing and the ones arrested?

Apart from physical manufacturing jobs, why is there an increase in the outsourcing of jobs to online freelancers?

How is Trump going to stop that?

Dafuq?

small matter, una carry am for head like this

smh

seyema:
somebody should help me

I deliver my 1st order today, but the buyer said its only good for a 1st draft and that I should do more. I don't know what to write again self

Take a break... probably a few hours.

Ideas will come.

tolajay:
What are the winning methods of sending proposals on Upwork and what other winning strategies would you advice?

Cc jonaboy, wman

Long proposals tailormade to fit with the project description.

You must do all you can to win the buyer and convince him/her that you are the best person for the job.

Bidding below the price doesn't work most times. They might just see you as incapable for the job.

Bid for jobs that fit your profile the most.

Staying online is a bonus.

Your next account must be a NIgerian account.

tolajay:
Please, I urgently need your insight on this.

Got my first gig on my UK Upwork account yesterday. I delivered the gig yesterday and the client commented that his publisher loved it...The proofreading was well done and in time wink

Well, my trouble right now is that I got a read from Upwork saying I need to confirm my identity by doing a video call and providing some documents...Obviously, I can't do all these, since, I'm still a Nigerian with a virtual UK citizenship grin

I'm to collect about $70 for the gig. I'm yet to receive any info about payment.

Do you advise I redirect the client to an external payment platform off Upwork or what can be done here?

Thanks!

The account is as good as gone.

Upwork read conversations between clients and freelancers. If you attempt to receive payment outside Upwork, it is a straight ban.

tolajay:
Any UpWorker here?

maryjames9:
You guys should just shut up already. Know many of you are unredeemable hypocrites and sworn Atheists. First off,i am pretty sure that Pastor Adegboye,the senior pastor of the said church dont even have a clue of the said advert because he hardly spend a week in nigeria before he travel out of the country. infact,he hardly stay in nigeria 30 days in 365,so ya'll condemning the leadership for advert designed,printed and published by young people like you are misled,misinformed and therefore foolish. Secondly,you pips are so frustrated,dumb that you at a minutest reason come for people's head unjustifiably. Have you ever think that these ad is trying to pass a message? A known bad girl like Niki dressing responsibly in ankara. It figuratively meant that ya'll devoted satanist,atheist,yahoo,cultists,criminals,cheat,sluts,homo,sleakes,haters, and what have you can turn from your evil ways,forsake them and repent. That is the gists. That is the meaning. Repent and change even if you are the worst sinners.

See as grammatical errors just full your reply.

Who mentioned Revd Adegboye?

Responsibly with her cleavage exposed?

Yeye.

Most are greedy. A few are ignorant.

Singapore1:
the only reason why whatsapp is better than telegram is because message can be reverted on telegram ... if whatsapp can introduce the features
i will switch to telegram fully

Messages can be retracted on Telegram. It started it before other messaging apps.

You can also start a secret chat and set a destruct timer.

Unlimited Cloud Storage
Server side storage of messages for seamless synchronization across all platforms
Lots of updates to Whatsapp came from Telegram
Telegram bots and api

What's there not to like about Telegram?

I will go for Goku and Superman.

Guys abeg what do you think about this?

From a fellow Nigerian seller O!

Level one.

Some won't talk about this phrase

This is one of the few other investments we are going to be sharing with you.

There is nothing free about this. Sadly millions of ignorant people won't see this for the ruse it is.

The people who visit these locations can afford data comfortably. They are not average Nigerians.

The company sponsoring the project makes more money. The MAVIN website gets loads of traffic (Why must we go to the website to get access to the wifi?). The outlets with the wifi gets more patronage.

It is a smart business move. Don't attempt to fool us by telling us you are doing it for charity.

Finished from OAU. I love sane arguments like this. Thsi is far better than all those yeye mushroom arguments we see flying all around.

I'll be back.

Wow Rigby. I was in your shoes a few years ago.

Studied Engineering (5 year course). Found out I was having an extra year in my 3rd year.

How?

I failed 2 courses in the 2nd semester of my 3rd year. 4th year 2nd semester is for IT. Second semester of 5th year is choked up with courses. No space for extra courses.

Bear your burden like a man. I understand that pain when your peers are calculating their year of graduation and you know you won't graduate with them. The expectations of parents, relatives etc.

Yeah. It's terrible. You have a whole 2 years to think about it.

Passed the remaining courses. Finished the extra year.

Graduated.

Now serving. Now financially independent while still a youth corper.

Firstly, you need God. God is everything.

Secondly. It has happened to many people. They finished strongly.

Man up. Its nothing.

PS: No matter what, after the 5th year, let your parents know. It is better that way.

Truly Nigeria is finished judging by the comments on this thread.

Who writes for this people?

Bad English.

Poorly written articles everytime.

LEAFLET:
where is Kendrick lamar, j'cole, pusha t. Drake and Weezy...It's crazy where people use a certain generation of rappers to classify the greatest in a rap.. Rap evolves and there is nothing like greatest of all time..

Legends Bro legends.
That is the operative word here.

The ones you mention are still new school. They are on their way to becoming legends.

Can you call Messi and Ronaldo legends yet?

No not yet.

TheVictorious:
I could remember reading a post where one idiot claimed that unguided student actions like this is part of what makes OAU the best school in Nigeria. Can something like this happen in Harvard?

Ever heard of OAU students destroying properties?

They protest the most but they do it in a sane manner.

These FutMinna students refused to protest for so long. They let it get all messed up till it got to a boiling point and now they will suffer for it.

A sane protest years ago will not have erupted into this. It will have resolved a lot of issues.

FYI students of universities abroad even protest more.

So don't bring OAU into this.
