When I applied to Nsukka to study astronomy they used quote system to reject my interest.

I already was very fluent in Yoruba and Hausa, could write and read both and was interested in completing my WAZOBIA identity with igbo by studying in East.

So I ended back in North - Zaria.

Your people discriminated against me and robbed me of the chance to learn igbo.

I should report this to human rights grp to look into your discriminative practices against teenagers.

In fact, I don't know now but, Nsukka was the only Uni at the time that offered dual degree in Physics and Astronomy.

If you did not make UNN, it means that you did not make the merit cut off mark. Chances are that you also did not make the university pass mark of 200 either as that might qualify you to be admitted on quota depending on the level of performance of people from your state.

In any case quota admission is always less than 10% of total intake in UNN, otherwise the educationally disadvantaged people will just steal us-merit guys chances.

The cut off point is always very high for eastern states because of the competition to go there, therefore quota system never worked for us.

However, I had a friend from Kogi who was admitted to study medicine with a score of 220, whereas my friend from Imo who had 263 missed the cut by 4 points, but he was able to get uniport with some strings as uniport merit cut was 243 for medicine.

Wow! Well see what you lost in all that equation you just expressed.

The opportunity of having the best propagandist in NL and the most savvy of all negotiators anywhere within the West African region.

Re: Where Have You Lived In Nigeria-only Places one year and more please by dempeople(m): 7:54pm On Jul 06, 2011
So far, its like I'm the only one here who hasn't lived in more than two states for a year or more. Quite sort of embarrassing! I really need to tour 9ja.
Re: Where Have You Lived In Nigeria-only Places one year and more please by edoyad(m): 7:57pm On Jul 06, 2011
1Lagos - roughly 19 years.
2Plateau -  boarding school*
3 Kaduna.

*It's tricky with plateau since it was boarding school years. But i guess 3 terms of 3 months in a year amounts to 9 months. Multiply that by six and you get fifty four months. So yes, i stayed in jos for 4 and a half years.

Its good to experience the different cultures in Nigeria we are so diverse!!!

I have been to at least 25 states in Nigeria, and everyone is so different.

We are like a "Masala" or "Potpourri" of cultures

Wow. 25 states? That's great. I've only been to 8 (+ Abuja). I wish I did all these when I was still in 9ja. I really would like to visit Oyo, AK, CR, Kano, Kat, Sok, Niger and Taraba. I've covered the SE and some of the SS (3).
