Caleb University is located at Imota along Lagos-Ogun expressway. The university is privately owned and was established on 7 January 2008 by Prince Oladega Adebogun.
The history of the university cannot be complete without mentioning the initial seed from which the idea for a private university came forth. In 1986, the founder and owner , Prince Oladega saw the need to upgrade the failed system of education found in most public primary and secondary school and thus he established Caleb Nursery and Primary School, the establishment and growth of the school led to the establishment of a secondary arm named Caleb International College. The college served as a means to continue the core values already in place in the primary arm and this naturally satisfied parents. By 2004, the school’s reputation as a great citadel of learning could not be disputed and this led to the establishment of the university.
Caleb university began full academic operations on January 7, 2008 with a pioneer set of 121 students after acquiring over 100 acres of land in Imota at Lagos State. Since then the university has grown to have over 30 departments in about several faculties and over 1000 students.
