Stop disgracing yourself in the public. This argument is about Yorubas and Ndiigbo, we all know that the far North is a semi arid region with large landmass and sparse population.

We also know that Yorubas claim to be the most educated/ sophisticated ethnic group in Nigeria, and hence enrole for tertiary education more than any other group.

Therefore, that we have more Igbos enrolling for JAMB can only mean three things:

1. That the Yorubas though populated are stark illiterates that don't have desire for tertiary education like Ndiigbo. Which of course renders your claim to "sophistication" a false propaganda we all knew it was anyway.

2. That Yorubas are still education inclined, but have less population than Ndiigbo, such that even when 90% of eligible Yorubas enroll for JAMB, just a 50% of Igbos that enroll will outnumber them and give a false impression of Igbos being more interested in education, when in actual sense, about 50% of Igbos still didn't enrol and will end up as non uni graduates, where as, only 10% of the Yorubas will end up as non uni graduates.

3. The Igbos are more in population than Yorubas, and still have a greater percentage of their population enrol for uni education than the Yorubas.


None of those scenarios look good for the Yorubas.

So in your
eyes, Igbos are almost double of Yorubas,
right?)

This is the fact you have to swallow, it's bitter, but it will heal you of your Igbophobia.
