We’ve established that Nigerian public universities have cancelled fashion with their convocation gowns.
It’s now time to find out what is happening with their private counterparts.
Let’s get into it.

Let’s just agree that the schools on this list with blue convocation gowns are only cosplaying as private institutions. Deep down, we know what you are.
14. Caleb University

The alumni body of this university needs to petition their alma mater to do better.

Let me just say a gown like this makes you think thrice about putting that photo on the internet.
12. Bowen University

There’s an unhealthy amount of red that is clashing with the navy blue. We can’t have that, please dear.
11. Dominion University

This looks well put together that I’m tempted not to judge. But we have a “Don’t rate blue” agenda, so…

Sky blue and sepia brown is a wild combo. I award them a C- and may God have mercy on everyone involved with this decision.
9. Redeemers University

There’s a lot of yellow that makes the presence of blue forgivable.
8. Babcock University

Babcock either has the tallest student population in Nigeria or they need an obioma tailor to add an extra yard to these gowns. The gowns were jumpy in every picture I saw.
7. Lead City University
They get five points for black, and an extra five for that striped detail going on with the hood.
6. Veritas University

They have all they need to cosplay as Boys Scout members.
5. American University of Nigeria

It’s giving evangelical choir but can we also agree that this colour draws attention to the gown?
4. Joseph Ayo Babalola University
UNILAG, is that you? Anyway, they make it to this spot since we rate the wine and yellow combo.
3. Pan Atlantic University
There’s something about the texture of this black gown that makes a case for it grabbing the third spot.
2. Landmark University

They made it this far down the list for daring to be different.
1. Covenant University
If you can ignore the agriculture green, you’ll agree that the intention to make this the baddest gown that ever liveth is there. The velvet hood and cap, patterned detail and red bow? They lived up to their reputation as one of the best private universities in Nigeria.
