USA Africa Dialogue Series - Re: [Naijaintellects] Fwd: QS 2013/2014 Top Universities in the World

Akusobi:

Thanks for your good thoughts and wishes about FU Otuoke.,,much appreciated.

Quite frankly, based on the indices for ranking, it will be difficult (but not impossible) for Otuoke to break the first 200 in Africa, then 200 in the World, then 100, etc.  BEFORE the 1st Generation Universities (UI, UniLag, OAU, ABU, UNN, (UniBen)) do so.  With almost sixteen strikes since 1978 and thirty months out of school due to strikes - and limited funding - it is a herculean task.

But all Nigerian universities should endeavor to become world-class; the race is on, I guess, and Otuoke is joining in. There is serious work to do.

And there you have it.

Mazi Aluko,
   Do you think Nigeria will any day soon have a college that can come close to scoring in the 50s?
If so, it has to start taking a root and could be your school.
It may be better if your school would not belong to ASUU.
Just a suggestion. Please try it if possible for the interest of the kids under your care.
Another thing that may help; try recruiting students of above average intelligence when possible.
