History

The opening of Sultan Bello Hall by Alhaji Sir Ahmadu Bello, University College Ibadan, on Second February 1962 (Kenneth Dike to the left, Ahmadu Bello to the right)

The university was established in 1948 as University College, Ibadan, a college of the University of London, which supervised its academic programmes and awarded degrees until 1967.[2][3][4] The establishment came as a result of a recommendation from the Asquith and the Elliot Commissions on Higher Education in the then-British colonies, that two University Colleges of the University of London be set up in Ghana[5] and Nigeria.[6] Before 1948, Yaba College had been founded in 1932 in Yaba, Lagos, as the first tertiary educational institute in Nigeria, focused primarily on providing post-secondary vocational education and teacher training to Africans.

However, the limited aims of Yaba College and clamour by Nigerian nationalists for self-improvement and uninhibited education led to the establishment of University College Ibadan as the first degree-awarding institution in Nigeria in 1948.[7][8] Staff and students from Yaba Higher College were transferred to Ibadan to form the new University College Ibadan.[9]

Modelled after the British university system, Kenneth Mellanby was appointed in 1947 as its first principal, and he inaugurated the university college on 18 January 1948.[10] The sod of its permanent site was cut on 17 November 1948, a date now known as its Founders' Day. The university's first buildings were designed by eminent modernist architects Maxwell Fry and Jane Drew.[11] Following the tropical modernist style, the 1950s construction comprised administrative blocks, residential colleges and academic facilities.[12]

Following Nigeria's independence in 1960 and the subsequent drive to domesticate several institutions, UCI became an established full-fledged independent university in early 1962 and thus, the name changed to University of Ibadan.[13]

In late 1963, on the university playing fields, with a celebration marked by talking drums, the Rt. Hon. Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, the first Prime Minister of independent Nigeria, became the first Chancellor of this independent university. The first Nigerian vice-chancellor of the university was Kenneth Dike, after whom the university library is named.[14]

Library

Among the notable structures in the university is the central Kenneth Dike Library (popularly called "KDL" by the students), located just beside the Faculty of Arts. The library, which has a large capacity for students, contains books relating to virtually all fields of knowledge both in and outside the university community. To ensure easy access, students are made to carry out their library registration in their first year of admission.[43]

The library is named after Professor Kenneth Dike, who was the first indigenous Principal and former Vice-Chancellor of the university. it was established out of the desires of the founding fathers and matriarch of the institution in order to cut a niche for research and sound teaching.[44] Today, the library is ranked favourably among other [spelling?] libraries in the Commonwealth of nations.[45]

The library contains 700,000 volumes of information and more than 1,250 seats for readers. It is open to all senior staff, students of the institution, senior staff of the University College Hospital, (UCH) Ibadan as well as alumni of the university. The library will also admit any outsider with cogent reasons upon the provision of a letter of introduction from a recognized university official (i.e. dean of a faculty, head of department from the visitor's school or director of an organization).

Ebrohimie Road, a street in the University of Ibadan, was the subject of a documentary film, Ebrohimie Road: A Museum of Memory, released in July 2024, written by Nigerian writer and linguist Kola Tubosun. The street features a campus bungalow where Nigerian writer and Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka lived with his family from around 1967 to around 1972, and which has played a significant role in the history of the country, the university, and the writer himself.[78][79]
