Is your statement a joke

Ms. Olaolu:

@ uche tobi. the discussion here is actually about babcock and covenant! no offence but bowen dosent evn come close!

uchetobi:

Is your statement a joke

does it really sound likea joke? it was actually a comment stating fact! and sadly its true bowen isnt the bone of contention in this topic! no offence

is this discussion about academic standard or social standard or both? i think the emphasis has been more on social standard. now let us hear more about academic standard

concerning the rules in B.U,what kind of bags are allowed?mary mary bags.u actually mean they dont allow colourful bags or basket bags.reply pls

dear chinadoll, They do allow colourful bags. . .
When It comes to academics. . .B.U is really good

B.Uni here i come*******happy to belong sha.

Akinwunmi u don miss road

is anybody here trying to mess with babcock uni? make i throw am blow!

anyways to be honest im pretty tight with both schools. i graduated from babcock and my dad's on the board of covenant. he was basically the person who set the school up & helped get accreditation from NUC blah blah. oh yeah bishop oyedepo's my tight paly too.

babcock is more recognised internationally (if ure planning to go abroad) and gives you the best quality for the courses they offer. Accounting/Marketing & Political science at Babcock are easily among the best in the country. Computer engineering/science is also very strong. Many of these other private schools (including covenant & igbinedion) have rushed to do professional courses like medicine & engineering without proper preparation. thats y medicine was canceled at igbinedion, because they just didnt have the facilities for it.

on the other hand covenant has mad funding & structures. i havent been there in a while but i know how bishop oyedepo does it when it comes to architecture & to me the school's buildings can only get better. cannanland is one beurriful looking place

babcock is still closer to a regular uni than covenant, which is more high-school like. u get better exposure at babcock. everyone needs to experience that college/uni life or ull end up a mugu.

babcock has more experienced staff & better administration (with foreign supervision), remember it was an institution long before it became a uni. a lot of covenants staff are winners pastors.

lastly, babcock's vice-chancellor is one action guy. he's the sharpest university worker i've ever met. he's social, interacts with students, understands young people and is full of wisdom. if he stays there for 5 more years, the school will gain world-class status.

Thanks so much for that insight @sturvs

I am really glad to hear about the standard of education at both covenant and babcock. Many people have criticized obasanjo for raising the cost of higher education in Nigeria through the establishment of these (and other) private universities, but like I have said in the past:

1. government alone cannot provide all the educational needs for higher education in Nigeria. It doesn't satisfy the need at the primary or secondary schools, so having private universities only makes sense.

2. No one is forcing those that cannot afford to go to private universities to go there, so the issue of universal increase in the cost of university education is far fetched.

3. The establishment of private universities opens room for those who hitherto would have been unable to attend public universities, since a lot of qualified applicants are denied admission due to lack of space at the public universities.

4. The establishment of private universities will inevitably improve the quality of higher education in Nigeria because it'll foster competition among all universities.

Convenant is far better

@ sturvz

cu is still better if u lyk let oyedepo be ur god father it dosent make bu ne better and just cuz ur dad got accredition for cu i.e if ur not washing us! lol! cu is sha still better. i assume no ofence taken on ur end!

ms laolu wotever i said about bishop oyedepo or my dad doesnt have anything to do with BU being better.

wot im saying is i know more and will always know more about the two schools than u. and i also have the right to an opinion from wot i know about both schools, which is that BU is an overall better school. thats my opinion u don't have to agree with me.

u saying cu is "sha still better" already shows no backing 4 ur opinion. prove it if u can

Well Bowen students are hot akara in the labor market today. With just only one convocated set on ground. We may not match the infrastructure in covenant. But when it comes to academic excellence we are the best

whateva makes u exicted say and do! i assume there freedom of speech on nairaland just cuz i dont agree wiv you dosent gimme me ne thing to prove! it just proves u took offence! and there was none intended! ne ways just for d record y would u assume u know and would always know more bout d 2 skools than me!
ps. just got on ur blog page and i think its kinda plain no offence!
@ uche tobi! which one is it with all this ur bowen students being hot akara! hiss*

u went on my blog page & u think its kind of plain? & u say im taking offence? so if my blog is plain wot does that have 2 do with wot we're talking about here?

& by the way ure saying d same thing im saying. theres freedom of speech & opinion here. u have urs & i have mine. leave it at that.

this is a matured forum where people give opinions & back them up with solid points. u saying "cu is shaa better" has no backing thats y i said u should prove it. lets hear wot u have 2 say about cu's greatness, thats if u have anyth to say,

every intelligent argument is simple: 1. OPINION 2. BACKING.

@ sturvs

just cuz i said ur blog page was plain it wasnt supposed to have a conection with the discussion @ hand and u r actually takin it personal ne way just 2 please ur definition about an intelligent argument ill give u backing. although its not really an argument or is it? ne way my opinon still remains covenant is a better school

my backings are the fact that we have better infrastructures, a better academic standard you should know since ur dad is on the baord, nuc acredited us the best univeristy in nig. we have the standard of living in any nigerian university and when rated fell among the top 3 universities in africa

so there you ahve it and you just save us both the stress and get on google and type in covenant university. and u'd see waht u get and i think u'd be able to decide .
PS. why is your blog so difficult to activate. i think you should get on facebook and invite ppl to get on it!

my blog is so difficult to activate? why is my "blog" worrying u this much now ? do u even know wot a blog is? which website are u calling a blog? i hope its not sturvs.com ure calling a blog ? is that wot they teach u in covenant ?

& ure telling me to get on facebook & tell people to get on it? well, i started doin that months ago. & is it people getting on it that will make it "better to activate". wot r u activating there? again i hope u don't learn all this from covenant because bishop oyedepo's doin better than that 4 y'all.

THIS THREAD IS ABOUT BABCOCK / COVENANT SO SHUT UP ABOUT MY "BLOG" OR WOTEVER You KEEP SINGING. & STURVS.COM IS NOT A BLOG!

i really don't see how any of the articles u posted add more to covenants rep. like i said before the school has very good infrastructure & funding.

nobody's taking anyth personal here ure just hilarious thats all, talkin bout "my blog". i get blog ?

When you want to rate any educational institution,you have to consider her products.Look at Babcock University products, for example.Prof. Makinde the present V.C.,Prof. Adekunle Alalade,the past V.C.Prof. Babalola,Prof. Aderanti and many more that I cant even remember and they have really made both national and international contributions, How then will you compare convenant university with Babcock University.
No be by Mouth.Just call 08036599444 and you get to know more better.

u dnt have 2 be ruud now! which one is shut up again in the matter i guess u lotare not ciclized enuf to understand d concept of difference in opinons! anyways u r forgivn! and ur website or blog or wateva u chose to call it is wack! so go suck on a lemon! hiss! ruude rat!

Pls let this topic rest

Covenant is Tops
So let this topic rest!!!!

Babcock is still the best private university, the rules might be a little to the extrim but it is all to bring out the best with u. Convenant is no where near BU academically, recognition n in a lot of ways. Bowen is , nothin compared to both schools. Hail Babcock University!
!1. Babcock University, ilishan remo ogun state
2. Convenant University
3. Igbenedion university
4
5

how can you say babcock is better when you have not attended convenant? and vice varsal, my dear, if you can afford any of them and they offer what you want to study go ahead don't mind all these unnecessary comparisms they won't help you in anyway. But graduates of convenant university don't look for jobs cos employers (banks,oil firms, communication companies etc) queued up at their (convenant) first convocation ceremony to hire the new graduants who were interested in their (employers) job.

Sturvs, with all due respect to your personal opinion, please and please leave Bishop oyedepo out of this topic, convenant university is owned by members of living faith church worldwide, not the bishop please take note of that. I your BU is best for then go ahead. Convenant University has come to stay. And for you to compare a university that few years old with the one that has been there,it means that convenant is still setting standards among private universities in nigeria.

=busygirl=
is that the best u cud do in producing your "beautiful" bu girls. try harder. at cu our worst will beat ur best.

cu has achieved a lot in just about 4 or 5 years. we've achieved the fame and respect that bu hasn't achieved since their existence. i understand dat its not easy to admit that you don't attend the best (CU), but that doesn't mean beef will console u. u can settle for second best (BU).

=uchetobi= na wow for you oh! an acquintance told me she was going to Bowen, i laughed my head off.   as in really i can tolerate bu and cu but where is bowen trooping in from. haven't you heard bowen students are sprinting to cu. no hard feelings but the truth has to be said. as for =busygirl= u went to gather all the fine girls with new hairstyles to come and take picture. . Abeg cu rocks.

wat a topic 2 comment on.watz d soul aim of goin 2 d university?i guess 2 get a good degree n 2 b physically,socially,morally n mentally sound.2 be sincere d gd stuffs abt convenant r gd structures ,n dt d gal r allowd any type of hair,n wearin of trousers.wat else has it gat 2 offer.dt has gat notin 2 make d skool gd cos even if it makes d chicks luk beautiful then u nid 2 get 2 babcock n c gals without makeup,on d skirt levels,with dr natural beauty lukin smarshn.talkin abt aa skol who trains u 2 becum sum1 in life,then call BABCOCK UNIVERSITY.HAIL BABCOCK,GOD'S OWN UNI.

I wonder why this has been going on for so long, Convenant is more of a single sex school (latest rule you can't walk
with opposite sex) is that not promoting GAY soon you gonna hear boys dating boys and vice versa. They have the infrastructure and all but is that what we are looking for Infrastructure in a place you don't feel relaxed. The don'ts are more tham the do's. I was there 3 months back to drop a friend and the students all looked like GIGS cos social life is negative,

what are u saying sleekykay pls try to be less annoying and say what u c not wat u tink u c. we have a gd social life nd know how to have fun. cu doesn't encourage social life because they've seen wat its done to corrupt youths.i know that sme rules r whacked but cu or bu, i'd take cu anyday.

Hey pple, Common why the beef, I am a member of the gr8 C.U and still know friends in gr8 babcock but the fact still remain that they are both glorified secondary skuul so i wld tell the person seeking admission to look for another skuul or seek admission into one that offers his desired course
