Do you 23rd Position a Top. What you talking about..?
23rd out of 1000 is a top position, don’t u think? Some people see nothing good in their country. Sad.
We shall one day be at number one inshallah 🙏
I don’t want to question the credibility of the source, but when you check the standards of USL they cannot even make it to the top 100 list.
It’s a steady growth anway, thanks to the management of the university..
Nimal do not condemn 23rd out of 1000 is a significant achievement. You people politicise everything which is bad. What was your contribution for USL to attain this position? Nothing. So just shut up.
Good news
When people hate themselfs, they will hate everything on the planet. So sad how people hate their country so much that it pains them when they hear good things. What a sad generation!
Congrats to Sierra Leone
Most of our commentary members are majority a illiteracy 😆 😂🤣 the never think what the are really talking about trust me my bro.
This sounds growth…. It’s a gradual process.
It’s good to hear this. But please, for some of you doubting wether the USL match the standards of been 23rd, I have a question for you: have you been to the other universities you deem fit to be ahead of the USL, or have you forgotten that we were once up there?
Why can’t you embrace good things and stop been bigot for once?
We the citizens of this country ar the problem of this sweet Mama salone, not the government or our leaders.
Our past glory archivement is going to return soon to us 🇸🇱
