I think the whole of Southern Nigeria has a healthy and probably equal attitude to education. . . but I believe Ekiti and Imo states are top dollar when it comes to book.

Facts is facts. Should I cover the truth just to appease you? Go and check JAMB results. . . . Imo State alone has more university entrants than the whole North put together. . . .

I don't think we should judge the most Educated by the number of those who passed Jamb,

rather by the number of those who Graduated. An Igbo man can easily be encouraged to

go into business or travel abroad rather than struggling to get into the University. It's get rich

quick or die trying for an Igbo Man.

There is generalization with every tribe. Igbo are that they like money too much,

Yoruba are that they are often dirty

Binis are that the girls go to Italy for prostitution and so on.

So don't even trip

Since you know that all these generalizations are not true, why dispute Ibime's well documented evidence with a mere stereotype?  In case you haven't heard,

 ibos do money juju,
 Yoruba women give it up anywhere whether it's under the stair case, hood, back seat, behind the church, first date,
 ijebu women are grossly wicked and fetish,
hausa men are gay,
Tiv women look masculine,
ibo women have mustache,
Yoruba women do not wear underwears and are pigs(wonder why our men were not included in this stereotype)
Ijaws tend their male visitors with their teenage daughters or sisters.
Calabar women are docile and can cook and kiss your ass forever etc
Ekiti women are wayward

So, based on that list above, will you conclude that a girl must be yoruba and not ibo or calabar because your friend told you he slept with her on top of  his trunk?

What a foolish boy!!  Jamb is not Visa. People sit for Jamb because they want admision into universities. Igbo people that can not afford higher education go into Buisness or travel even to Chad  and they do not end up like their Yoruba counterparts "Area Boys" roaming the streets from January to December all year

Education is not all about book, knowing your responsibilities is also part of being educated and your Area Boys definitely lack that. 99.9% of Igbo men are responsible!!

This cud be true, but bare in mind there tends to be more of them, with the exception of the Hausa's and Ibo's
it would be pointless to compare such a big tribe whose members can be found on every corner of the universe to various
other tribes in our country. The comparison is not valid, as I said before there is more of them. Its as simple as
that.

very funny topic!it will be funnier if i contribute.i will just advise that we shudnt limit our premises of argument to just one stat.it goes beyond that there are so many statistics that affirm the topic and there are some that deny it,all i know is that immediately after the colonial era till the seventies the yoruba were more educated but many of them end up in the public sector,the northerners took to defense sector(military) while the ibo people out  of both curiousity and the urge to be succesfull financially took to business.But that has change since the late 70s/early 80s,the ibos are master in everything they put their mind into while the yorubas are naturally egoistic,they believe they are the best that is why they wants to acquire education not as a means to make money but for self esteem and pride.in all the yorubas still remain the most educated tribe without putting their education into practice,they prefer working in the local government secretariat with their degree than exploring their talent in the turbulence world of business.

I've warned sisi to stop being sarcastic many times on NL. The concept of sarcasm sincerely FLIES over the people here. It's embarrassing to watch. Unless she enjoys having to explain to dimwits that she's playing around.
