NIGERIA’S premier university, University of
Ibadan, has again confirmed its lead position
by ranking as the topmost university in the
country in the January edition of the 2018
Webometrics.



It, however, ranks 1099 in the world (still the
only Nigerian university in the top 1000
bracket in the world).


University of Ibadan is trailed in the second
position by the Covenant University, Ota,
Ogun State (the only private university in the
top 46 bracket) and the Obafemi Awolowo
University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, in the third
position.

Despite being held down by protracted and
debilitating industrial crisis last year, the
Ladoke Akintola University of Technology,
Ogbomoso, still got rated as the best state
university in the current Webometric ranking,
14th in the country and 3680th in the world.

The highest ranked polytechnic is the Auchi
Polytechnic 48th in Nigeria and 8623rd
institution in the world; followed by the Yaba
College of Technology (65th Nigeria,
10,911th world) and The Polytechnic, Ibadan
(77th Nigeria, 12,202nd world).

No 1 is not by size but by effort put into it.
Egypt is not divided or political like us. So you don't expect to get the same result they get.

We ought to be number one. University of Ibadan is one of the best universities in Africa . Being number one attracts many persons to school from within and outsidee Nigeria. Many foreigners will patronise it while in the long run be beneficial to the economy of Nigeria.probably the books they are publishing are inadequate enough

If they put in good effort regarding published papers, then maybe the rating will start improving. Covenant appears to be free from most of the dirty politics associated with public institutions and to me stands a better chance of fulfilling those expectation of yours.
Papers get rated by quality as much as quantity.
