Here is the recently updated list of the top 50 best universities in Nigeria for the year 2017. This list is strictly based on the recently released National Universities Commission (NUC) 2017 rankings of the top universities in Nigeria



Every day am sure the argument on which university is superior to the other is sure to be raised at one part of our country. Without proper information this argument can last for minutes, even hours. Well with this top 50 listing I believe this should solve that problem and give you a clear view on how your institution is ranked in the country.

There are so many factors looked into before ranking a particular university by the NUC but we are sure that being a nonpartisan body they have come up with the most accurate rankings of Nigerian universities for the year 2017. Let's go into the listing.
