Nigeria Latest News,Nigeria Headlines

Anyone who is even faintly familiar with the history of higher education in Nigeria would already be in the know of the history of the founding of the University of Nigeria, and her land-grant philosophy and ancestry.

Between 1960 and 1966, Nigeria was clearly on the path to creating a unique and leading Higher Education Institution like none before it in the entire continent of Africa. In philosophy, content, outlook and performance, the University of Nigeria was clearly unique and outstanding. It was to leapfrog and boot-strap Africa and Nigeria’s development and was clearly on the path to achieving that.

Many more facilities were completed or started, including replacement of burnt and damaged facilities, and the development of 13 mini auditoriums among several others that today constitute the base for academic activities. UNN came back to life. Nebo, the national architect of POST-UTME, vigorously took on cult activities and flushed out non-university materials from UNN, persons who had found their undeserved way into UNN during the inglorious years of 1995 to 2004.
