Where is opon imo oran?

Even with all the question leakages.
The northern states need to sit up. Well, maybe Boko Haram would be happy with their poor performance.

Is this the results that were just released?

Omanbala still leading the pack like its destiny.....Egbe igwe tigbue onye obuna ji Peter Obi agba asili!

Why does Anambra always carry first!?

Imo needs to pull their socks up!

When Anambra closed all the special centers they claimed we came first because our students patronize special centers but I wonder what they will say now....wonder...wonder..wonder..wonder...till you turn to wanderer...lol

even if you write on the chalk board for northerners, they will still fail woefully, education is still far from most of them.

Sorry, I did not read the linked source, my mistake.

IGBOSON1: Why does Anambra always carry first!?

Why are you so worried about Imo,what about Enugu where your beloveth Sullivan Chime is performing wonders.
It also beats my imagination to stupor that you are asking why is Anambra always coming first...As if you dont know the amount of reform that went down in Anambra education sector,while Chime is planting flowers and sweeping roads...lol
Funny guy.

People keep trashing Abia's state government on these online forums, yet Abia is always well represented when it truly counts. The Gov and the state must be doing something right.

chinasaekperem: even if you write on the chalk board for northerners, they will still fail woefully, education is still far from most of them.

Yes, you are right. Somebody told me he marked some scripts from Borno where metaphor must have been written on the board and so many student wrote metaplion and some metaphone. Funny.

This table is so instructive.
I am glad that female pupils are waxing stronger. More females passed more than their male counterparts. The southerners passed more than their northern counterparts.
So wish our northern elected officials shall take this as a challenge and take education in their areas to another level, we will all be happy for it. Andd we pray for our children in the troubled north east.
Let's keep this thread clean, it's the lives of the future ones that's at stake here.

If not for Ebonyi (placed 11th), all 5 South Eastern states would have been in the top 10.
Igbo kwenu!

Bros, see o. Imo that u used to top like no man's business

Abagworo said Rochas has rehabilitated over 200 schools....Now,I wanna see the gaddenm result or you Rochas bootlickers should shut your mouth for life and never you APC goons compare Obi to any living man in Nigeria....Peter Obi is the greatest Nigerian Alive.

more of the children worked hard for their success

Where is Delta state. We are usually among the top six

The downward trajectory of delta, cross rivers and Akwa ibom should be alarming to governments of these states. I hope Uduaghan, and co are seeing these states slip, year after year. We now have a 40% pass average, that is not acceptable. The hefty expenditure on education is not showing in these results. On the other hand Edo and Bayelsa states have seen a remarkable improvement.

odenigbo, so disappointed in you.
Mentioning the okoracha's SA on misinformation in a thread where a reputable organisation like WAEC's results is being discussed.
This is not a thread of pictures of assumpta or whetheral road owerri.

meforyou1: more of the children worked hard for their success

Agreed, but the government of Abia need to get some credit here.

I dont see any reason why Rivers and Akwaibom shouldn't be in the top three of that five best list.With all the billions they are pouring into the education sector there shouldn't be any reason for this abysmal performance.

Like the Odenigbo always say,some people get money while some get wisdom....As for Anambra God has blessed us with wisdom and a torch to show others the way and we humbly oblige.

congrats to my people Anambra * always leading the pack since the death of Awolowo

warripekin: Where is Delta state. We are usually among the top six

Unfortunately we are down to number 9. With a 40% pass average. This is very very disappointing.
