This piece is devoid of bias nor sentiments, but reflects on fundamental options necessary for development in the tertiary sector of education. Taken a case between The Polytechnic Ibadan and Univsity of Ibadan.
Some observers have tilted towards the notion that the average Nigerian university is literarily better than the Polytechnic school. Though many others have widely recognized progressive indicators in recent times in major polytechnics in the country and are now convinced the Polytechnic is fast overtaking the interests in the long term.
Indicators such as Discipline, Course Orientation, Practical Knowledge Application, Administrative Balance, Students' Union Stability - are considered in this context for easy comprehension.
By wide marginal points and public opinions accrued recently by indigenous professors residing in Ibadan, THE POLYTECHNIC IBADAN is better placed than the UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN. Students of the latter (UI) are dilusioned to think the school still holds the ace in resource management; but it's being revealed via the students' ranks that the tag "first and the best" is merely a self-acclaimed tag and nothing more.
No thanks to social media, the level of Intelligence Ratio (IR) is fast diminishing among students of the University of Ibadan while it's Students' Union for the past 3 years has greatly been involved in sentimental ideologies causing wide conflicting commitment among its executive members.
Traditionally, The Polytechnic Ibadan is known for its visible career orientation and viability of practical knowledge in various economic sectors. The average students of the Polytechnic now have a unique way to influence positive attitude in collective objectives.
They (Polytechnic Students) DON'T SHAMEFULLY CALL-OUT/DEGRADE THEIR LEADERS ON SOCIAL MEDIA - they cherish true 'Value' and 'Personality'. Unfortunately, it's now a norm among students of the University of Ibadan to insensitively attack leaders/themselves particularly on facebook thus losing-out on building a enviable image brand among its peers.
These are just some of the indicators used to ascertain the recent poll of rating The Polytechnic Ibadan above University of Ibadan.
As highlighted in the early paragraphs of this piece, this is a poll survey and we would like to get your views on this issue...
