Ejiné: OMG!!! lmfao. say it again. leave it to an Anambra to destroy loudmouths. I take my hat of thee austin. my guy go rest, you did good. lmfao. anyway reading this thread, i just can't stand how hypocritical some people are. If the Op was Igbo or any ethnicity in SS, the same SW would have gone bunkers on the thread. shouting and insulting the OP. in other words, they would see something wrong with it. judging from that you would think they would replicate the same when it's them doing it but in their case, they see nothing wrong. SMH. 1 Like |

Omo_Tier1: The truth is a very bitter pill to swallow, so I understand your frustration. The fact you also called it backward shows you're not only frustrated but also very dumb and unable to digest facts and stats, which doesn't quite come as a surprise to anyone considering the region of noisemaking dullards you crawled out from. People so bitter unable to find ONE single piece of evidence to validate their lies that they have to manufacture one out of thin air. This same "backward" Anambra towers over every single South-West state in the field of literacy. This same "Mogadishu-esque" Anambra crushes the South West in female literacy, child vaccination and federal examination test scores. And these are not my words... They are based on national and international statistics, Federal entrance test results, UNESCO documents and many other reputable bodies which do not dwell on lies and empty fairytales pooped out from the gangrene-infested anuss of a common motor park thug languishing in Ibadan. Need I remind you the most enlightened people in Nigeria are in Imo State and followed by Anambra? These are well known statistics which would cure you of your ignorance and stupiidity if you actually learned how to Google to save your life. A bogus thread was created calling Ogun State the best in Nigeria. It probably never would have been challenged if the claim was about it being the best in the South-West. But when that claim is made on the national level? Of course common sense would tell you it was only a question of time before the REAL title-holders put you to shame. Imagine listing a coupist and military junta low-life like MKO as a symbol of success and importance. I dey laff una for real. 4 Likes |

dolphinife: In the realm of literature, no other person is better than wole soyinka. Is Mike Adenuga still fronting for Mohammed Babangida , Igbo Produced Billionaires when Nigeria Had no crude oil (louis Ojukwu) How many Yoruba millionaires made it outside Niger Delta Crud Oil including Adenuga, Abiola used ITT to blackmail and swindle Nitel of billions of dollars How many of the Drug/pharmceutical compnaies in Ogun/Lagos are owned by Yorubas Achebe's book is among the first 50 most widely read books in the world , Soyinka's book is not among the first 10000 most widely read book. From your Delusions Awolowo clothed Zik, who is even older than him , Louis Ojukwu and Ojukwu . |

One_Naira: My brother, these people tire me Statistics have exposed them as liars and mere noisemakers, yet they continue making the same goof. These guys crowned themselves as the "most educated" in the past. But now wey truth don dey come out from stats that actually hold water, dem don begin dey catch cold Not even their children are as intelligent as the kids in the SE, and the federal common entrance results prove this. Anambra has the highest cut-off (136), followed by Imo (135), Abia (128) and then Delta (126). Their precious Ogun state is nowhere to be found - but they continue to lie to themselves. It's hilarious |
Re: Ogun State: The Bastion And Pioneer Of The Best In Nigeria by Ejine(m): 8:17pm On May 05, 2013 |
Mr. Omo Tier... I want you to read this thread. It has the Top 4 scoring states, and nowhere was your Ogun State mentioned. https://www.nairaland.com/1278594/yobe-state-zero-cut-off This is your final chance to free yourself from the shackles of ignorance and spine-shattering stupiidity. The SE, as it currently stands, towers above every region in Nigeria in the areas of female literacy, youth literacy and even overall literacy. That's right - the whole package known as the SE towers above my SS. And you see, the difference between me and you is, I don't phucking lie to myself. Ask any other honest man from the South-South (like Ibime) and they would tell you the same thing -- The South-Easterners are currently the most enlightened Nigerians. Signed, sealed and delivered. |

Ejiné: Mr. Omo Tier... I want you to read this thread. It has the Top 4 scoring states, and nowhere was your Ogun State mentioned. LOL, you don't even know the difference btw Cut-off and top scoring. Yet your SE is better than the SW. The tread says PIONEERS check the meaning of that word and tell yourself where Nigeria pioneers came from. Categorys: Entertainment Human Rights Law Education Bussiness Industry Agriculture Politics Literature Technology e.t.c In all you will always find a man/woman from Ogun as pioneers. |
Re: Ogun State: The Bastion And Pioneer Of The Best In Nigeria by Ejine(m): 9:26pm On May 05, 2013 |
emmatok: Omo, you dull no be small. Educate yourself oga, CUT-OFF is directly influenced by TOP-SCORING because it is determined by the RANGE of the scores. The cut-off increases in an area with higher success because in order to normalize and appear equal, the range increases. Were you sleeping during your SS2 Mathematics Statistics lessons? In an area where people score between 140 and 130 on equal rates, shouldn't common sense tell you the cut-off would be somewhere around 135? Secondly, you might want to go back and read Omo-Tier's dumb post to me. He claimed the South-East was "BACKWARD" and I simply ripped his dumb lie to pieces by showing him the SE was actually ahead of all of us in Human Development Index (which is what truly determines whether an area is progressing or not, NOT Moshood Abiola the ITT fraudster). Thirdly, coming to the internet to brag about people of a past you were never part of, is like going to a successful man and saying "Back in nursery school, I used to be RICHER than you, but now you work in Silicon Valley and I'm a truckpusher!!" If you fail to see the foolishness in that, then the joke is truly on you 2 Likes |
Re: Ogun State: The Bastion And Pioneer Of The Best In Nigeria by emmatok(m): 9:37pm On May 05, 2013 |
Ejiné: I see you still don't know the meaning of Cut-off. JAMB 101 Cut-OFF is based on demand and not high scouring. Law and Medicine always get the highest CUT-OFF because the demand for the courses are higher. Thesame for Universities, Fed cut-off are higher than state due to demand. And how is SE better in HDI, what parameters did you use. Bro abegi, we don't need urban myth about people buying and selling translating to better HDI. Don't forget the tread says PIONEERS. |
Re: Ogun State: The Bastion And Pioneer Of The Best In Nigeria by AustineE1: 10:48pm On May 05, 2013 |
emmatok:i didnt know that some people are this awkward in this 21st century!if cut-off is based on demand and supply as you postulated,then the big question is,why are south-Easterners demanding for higher education more than your 'almighty'south-west!oh sorry i forgot that Awolowo 'the lord of the manor'is late and no more free education.its so unfortunate that your present leader Tinubu,is more interested in certificate forgery! |
Re: Ogun State: The Bastion And Pioneer Of The Best In Nigeria by emmatok(m): 11:09pm On May 05, 2013 |
Austine.E: And how come the SW, specifically OGUN state currently host more higher Institutions(private and public) than the SE. Why can't the SE build more higher Institutions for their so call demanding youths. You see why I hate urban myths. |
Re: Ogun State: The Bastion And Pioneer Of The Best In Nigeria by AustineE1: 6:36am On May 06, 2013 |
emmatok:...my problem with your people is that they make unsubstantiated claims and go around presenting such figures as factual!that you host more higher institutions that are basically nt owned by your Ogun people,is nt something to be boastful about,for example how many Ogun indigenes are in Convanent University?Do you know why some private institutions owned by churches or other establishments was built in Ogun,is because of availability of cheaper land and proximity to Lagos,which is home to about 16million Nigerians or more!...just like Kaduna and Jos plateau state host more federal and military institutions than others,shld the plateau or Kaduna man be boastful about it as theirs?it smacks off stupidity! BTW i challenge you to name the universities in Ogun,which you claim its more than that of the entire East!i can authoritatively tell you that Imo alone,Enugu also or even Anambra alone has as much universities as Ogun!am seriously waiting for your list of universities in Ogun, 1 Like |

Crawford University, Igbesa 9. Adetokunbo University, Sagamu 10. Crescent University, Abeokuta 11. Mountain Top University, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Nigeria As an addendum, this was attributed to MKO ABIOLA: "Moshood Abiola sprang to national and international prominence as a result of his philanthropic activities. The Congressional Black Caucus of the United States of America issued the following tribute to Moshood Abiola:[6] Because of this man, there is both cause for hope and certainty that the agony and protests of those who suffer injustice shall give way to peace and human dignity. The children of the world shall know the great work of this extraordinary leader and his fervenmission to right wrong, to do justice, and to serve mankind. The enemies which imperil the future of generations to come: poverty, ignorance, disease, hunger, and racism have each seen effects of the valiant work of Chief Abiola. Through him and others like him, never again will freedom rest in the domain of the few. We, the members of the Congressional Black Caucus salute him this day as a hero in the global pursuit to preserve the history and the legacy of the African diaspora. From 1972 until his death Moshood Abiola had been conferred with 197 traditional titles by 68 different communities in Nigeria, in response to the fact that his financial assistance resulted in the construction of 63 secondary schools, 121 mosques and churches, 41 libraries, 21 water projects in 24 states of Nigeria, and was grand patron to 149 societies or associations in Nigeria. In this way Abiola reached out and won admiration across the multifarious ethnic and religious divides in Nigeria. In addition to his work in Nigeria, Moshood Abiola was a dedicated supporter of the Southern African Liberation movements from the 1970s and he sponsored the campaign to win reparations for slavery and colonialism in Africa and the diaspora. Chief Abiola, personally rallied every African head of state, and every head of state in the black diaspora to ensure that Africans would speak with one voice on the issues. Moshood Abiola was twice voted international businessman of the year[citation needed], and received numerous honorary doctorates from universities all over the world. In 1987 he was bestowed with the golden key to the city of Washington D.C., and he was bestowed with awards from the NAACP and the King center in the USA, as well as the International Committee on Education for Teaching in Paris, amongst many others. In Nigeria, the Oloye Abiola was made the Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yorubaland. It is the highest chieftaincy title available to commoners amongst the Yoruba, and has only been conferred by the tribe 14 times in its history. This in effect rendered Abiola the ceremonial War Viceroy of all of his tribes people. According to the folklore of the tribe as recounted by the Yoruba elders, the Aare Ona Kakanfo is expected to die a warrior in the defense of his nation in order to prove himself in the eyes of both the divine and the mortal as having been worthy of his title" THE QUESTION WE SHOULD ASK IS THIS, AMONG THE IGBO PEOPLE, WHO AMONG THEM HAS GARNERED ENOUGH RECORD TO BEAT THIS MAN? |
