Iffa hear! :

bonnyhope:

Is not just by bragging now, which innovation those schools you mentioned have come out with to show that they are better than ABU academically. It is easier to say my school is better than yours but what have my school done to make my school stand out among others.Nigerians and empty talk!!!!

leksite120:

Bros, Which kind comparison be dat ABU is the biggest in Sub-sahara Africa, though Unilorin has unused landmass, but structures and used land, ABU is second to non

Pearlyakin:
ABU receive more funds from FG than UI, UNILAG, OAU and UNN yet it can't stand beside those schools academically

I can't believe this one

Is it a most for you to go on the tribalism path?

To be candid with you, your points are irrelevant and disgusting to the core. You splashing this kind of words out are fucking stupid.

Where will you put the Yorubas of the west?
They are the most accommodating tribe in Nigeria, maybe even in Africa.
Can a Igbo man do anyhow he want in Kano or Bauchi?
But come to Lagos State and Oyo state. Yorubas give every tribe their own respect and massive amount of land to do as they wish, with no beefing or tribal dispute.
Have travelled to complete 14 states in this country, no tribe is more secular and friendly like the Yorubas.

Go and do your assignment and findings very well.

One love ����

InansBobo:
For foreign students, I can accept that (if they are truly more than UNN's)
But nationals, I doubt. Most students in ABU are from N. Central, NE, NW.
I can't say the school that has most though but I suspect the way ABU denies people admission, they can't be the most secular

QuotaSystem:
ABU is such a massive institution.

2nd only to the University of Cairo.

A very observable feature are the well manicured and landscaped gardens.

iceboy4752:


It's the most secular because there are people from all parts of the federation more than any other university. In UNN, Igbos are the majority. Also, they deny admission because the applicants they receive are more than they can take. This year, 81,397 people applied and only about 14,000 slots are available. What do you expect them to do? Automatically, about 67,000 people won't be admitted already.
In almost every class you go, there are people from all the 36 states in Nigeria and even beyond in some.

striker07:
that's not true, except you are adding all the various campuses together but if it is only samaru then the assertion isn't true

toffyz:


Bro, It's not o...I think the information is obsolete!

Not now that unilorin has moved to the Permanent site.

NO Tertiary institution in Nigeria is bigger than UNILORIN.

iceboy4752:

Lol. But why? Tell me any university that has more people with different cultures and from different places than ABU. Remember that ABU also has the highest number of foreign candidates.

EMMNIG:

DID YOU FORGET TO INCLUDE IN UR WRITE UP THAT EVERY DEPARTMENT IN ABU HOUSES A MOSQUE AND THAT THE JUMAT MOSQUE NEAR MAIN GATE IS ONE OF THE LARGEST MOSQUE U CAN FIND IN ANY INSTITUTION IN AFRICA, THAT MAIN CAMPUS GATE LEADING TO THE SENATE BUILDING IS USUALLY LOCK DOWN EVERY FRIDAY DURING PRAY. ALSO THE PRINCIPAL OFFICERS OF THE SCHOOL ARE ALL MUSLIMS DESPITE BEEN A SECULAR SCHOOL AS CLAIMED IN UR WRITE UP. THAT PROFS AND DRS EVEN OTHER RANKING LECTURES DO SAY PRAYERS IN ARABIC BEFORE THEY COMMENCE LECTURE. NAIRALANDERS DON'T MIND THE WRITE UP OOO.

About 15,000 hectares of land.

AnanseK:


Is that your only reason to reach that conclusion? Are you sure you have the right grades for the course you applied for?

InansBobo:
my friend got 313 applied for mbbs, did remedial but he was given physiology instead. He accepted and wrote the utme the following year and was give mbbs this time with 320 .

Why was he denied the course in the first place?
