You got the gist jare!
The same thing my dad did to me and my siblings...and I'm going to do same to my kids.

#Igboamaka!

That's the way it should be


We have to inculcate the igbohood in our kids. .this should be done mentally ,physically ,psychologically and emotionally cum culturally


That's the beauty of igboness and mind you no apologies

TamunoRichard:
But the south west would still dominate in the bussiness and labour sector because all we the south south and the south east think is only school while the people from the south west after or before schooling are going for other proffesional training and leadership certifation programmes to boost their cv, therefore beating you with 9 A's in the labour market any day any time.

We can beat them in exams, but they calculates the business and the labour market more than us.

no wonder majority of the business org they head barely survive especially if it is government owned business eg Nigeria wire n cable Ibadan, kablemetal company etc cos of their half baked professional certificate

FolarinLondon:


What an absurdity at its peak!!!

How pathetic can one sound!!!

I was once a student of that school and of course an indigene of that city called Akure; Odo-ikoyi to be precise.

That school was founded in 1981 and since then, historical feats have been achieved by both yoruba students and Niger-delta students without beating their chests.

You need to go and check Futa record and come back here to apologise for beating your chest on behalf of Igbos simply cos an Igbo guy graduated as a best overall graduating student in 2014. What a shame!!!

Do you have comprehension problem? if you read my post well , there was no bragging there I made reference to it to buttress my fair representation position. whats your problem? you disputed my earlier position and when I provided you with evidence for you to comfirm you have now resulted to insulting me. Its you that is trying to give it a chest- beating undertone. lastly , you are no more a futarian than I am so save me your history.

i'm from Edo and i share the same LGA(etsako west) with oshiomhole, but i don't need his party in Edo again.

Bros we deserve good govt in Edo state. Lucky Igbinedion and PDP almost ruined us, we then voted Oshiomhole but it seems there's no much difference.
Same people in Edo PDP moved to APC when APC won, they're all the same.

I lived in Lagos and I served in Ibadan. If I tell you the things I saw in both Lagos and Ibadan esp. all these big private schools in Lagos,teachers give their students answers to WAEC questions so that the school has a high pass rate and they can boast about their level of success in WAEC and I mean very expensive and popular schools....pls leave all this talk abeg,it happens everywhere and the effect of this cancels out in all regions when checking the statistics. The region that still comes out tops after the effect of malpractise has been cancelled out should be commended and other regions should try to find out how they go about it. All this unhealthy rivalry and always looking for reasons to discredit other people's achievements does not help anybody.
I know for a fact that anambra has the best govt schools in Nigeria now. Their govt has pumped so much into the educational sector and it is seriously paying off.

Okay.

wristbangle:
Speaking as a yoruba indigene, it beats my imagination to have seen the downward trend of our educational system . To be candid the poor state of schools, delayed payment of teachers (poor management from government) and unmotivated attitude from the students is killing our education.

Let's call a spade, spade. The SS and SE regions have tremendously improved in their educational sector in terms of teaching skills, good government support, willingness of students to study hence the reason why they are booming.

I feel the south west region need to retrace their step back to what made them the best or perhaps learn from SS/SE region because what the OP said may start happening in the nearest future is care is not taking.

SECONDED.
LEADERS AND STUDENTS HAVE A ROLE...

Are you serious?
You mean SW think more business than SE?

You need to travel more often!

No sentiments, but the number of professors from ekiti alone surpassess the number of professors from the first 5 states on that list

Wake up!! According to NUC, Imo state has the highest number of professors!!

Magu Magu,is that an English word?,thats why you people are competing with bokoharam in education.

oga keep quiet... na.mago mago thingz

after d teachers don write answers for board finish..

d end my friend justifies d means... yorubas remain omoluabis

cheers

Lol! Surprisingly enough, I had my youth service in Osun state. It was quite appalling dat most SS3 students never knew how to correctly write their English names, let alone spell or pronounce generic names.... now tell me how they intend to pass O'level exams? #smh #abasha

deleib:
it's a thing to get result n it's another thing to defend it. most of those that make waec in se make use of special centre. in fact this is the order of d day in both ss n se bt in d sw it is curb to d barest minimum.

SE AND SW CHEATS, WHY DIDN'T OSUN 29TH AND OTHER SW STATES BEAT NORTH?

state of origin of candidates or states where the exams were held. I need somebody to clarify pls.

flokii:
No need to be worried until d SE start developing their own lands.. and stop roaming about

what's d benefit of profs. bookworms when you have nothing to show for it... only eroded lands etc.

SW is still da bomb puleasee

You took this right out of my mouth. UNTIL AND UNTIL the Igbos stop roaming about and develop their territory and steer the interest of other Nigerians to desire to live in the East, all na wash. What is the point of heading to Yoruba land and shouting about some vague accomplishments!?!?

And there is also the fact that sooner or later the owner of the land will wake up. When the Yorubas eventually wake up there will be great trouble for the migrating Igbos.

GUY IT IS NOT TRUE, IM NOT IGBO BUT I KNOW THAT THEY GET THE DATA FROM STATE OF ORIGIN, THIS MEAN THAT MANY ARE NOT LIVING IN THE SE BUT THEY ARE FROM THE SE

There is nothing surprising here. Who doesn't know the amount of magu magu that goes on in that particular region
Anyway my state don try small.

Nigga please! Y'all should quit boasting about Lagos which was developed with the common wealth of Nigeria. Which other sw state can you boast with? Is it Ibadan, oyo state with brown roof dilapidated shacks or Osun, Ekiti, Ondo States which are still rural areas?


Spare me that bullshyte pulease!

Shout all you want LAGOS is Yoruba land. And nobody was invited or forced to come to Lagos. Build our economy and when you are done, you go and die in your village.

tonychristopher:
As an anambra man..my kids are in primary school in Lagos but once it secondary school u wil see them in anambra ..they will school there

You have quality education there
There they would be igbonized properly

Gooood!!! I hope they STAY there and develop the place. The disturbance you people are giving other Nigerians is enough with your roaming about causing havoc.

This is a part of d whole problem. Academic excellence is for only those who are ready to read. We need to up our reading culture if we want to make any headway.

ok

The south west states may just be real states at the top for all I care. Cheating is a norm as I have observed in south south and south east states.

Instead of bickering about over non-issues here as often seen, this statistical analysis provides an important issue to all of us: THE YOUNGER GENERATION SHOULD UNEQUIVOCALLY DEMAND FOR TRUE FEDERALISM OR REGIONALISM as the case may be. That is the only way to push this country out of this mess, cut down on ethnic suspicions and promote the best in every zone. This is what we should be asking for, not APC or PDP. The north will always be behind, if they think that being president is all there is to life. They better face it, their religion contributes up to 60% of their present ordeal. But they will never admit it. If they like, let them pump all the money in the world into their institution, they don't have an open system to embrace education. And thats why they don't want true federalism. But it would rather benefit than harm them. The greatest enemy of this country is the norther oligarchy, who don't want improved lifestyle for its people, but hide under the guise of the need to carry the north along for even development to take this country centuries backward. Why people are not speaking out is what I don't know.

Hello mister, have you seen publications from NUC lately? Quit living in a fools paradise and wake up to reality. Imo state has the highest number of professors in the country followed by Ekiti state. Empty chest thumping won't do you any good.
For those who attribute the feat to Miracle Centres, did the eastern states also ask WAEC to give poor marks to students from your states? Would you have been happier if all the states failed but with the western states coming tops? The average student you see these days in Lagos is more interested in Pasuma, Whizkid, Davido or Olamide than anything else. You need to hear them sing those misogynist songs that they so much love to know where their problems lie.

sapiosexual1:
I join to celebrate the 'south east ' though I don't see a basis for trumping up perceived regional success, sectoral breakdown of results is to guide the government and relevant authorities on where and how to channel resources in making Nigeria fully educated in sync with the MDGs. So these analysis shouldn't be taken in isolation, it shouldn't be seen as a region's victory over another, we are one Nigeria.
Again looking critically at these results and it's trend, it's obvious that it's not a case of the SW loosing steam or slowing down, rather it's a case of the East rapidly opening up and embracing formal and secondary level education, the obvious impact of government attention based on previous statistics) as the East is on the upward slope of educational growth. In 20 years time, the East would get to the plateau which the SW has reached and it could be the turn of the NW or NC to be on the upward slope. Nigeria go better!

What a funny analysis you just ran here.
You mean SW parents has acquired enough education so much that their kids no longer need to enroll in schools? How do you get to a plateau in school enrollment?
It will really be hard to imagine you being part of any state policy making arm.

Aburo, don't even think about Insulting me cos if u try it, i ll show your ass why i graduated as a best overall graduating student in 1996.

Flyoruboy:


Yeah, it's my problem coz you obviously lack the moral right to gloat over perceived underperformance of others when even you can't correctly spell 'dumb'. You repeated the blunder like.. 3 frigging times dude Obviously you didn't know better but now you know the correct spelling but you're still unwilling to acknowledge your error and move on. Na your kind dey pass WAEC via expo yet end up a low-life.

You are mentally challenged.. i spelt Dump not dumb... and i know what i meant... plz. brush out your madness here

Yeah, graduates are products of moto parks right?
No need to take WAEC before becoming graduate.

You totally misinterpreted me, OK let me break it down. Look at the telecoms growth in Nigeria, when it first came to us, we recorded astronomical growth for about 10years, in which we became the fastest growing telecoms hub in the world, that was our upward slope. At that time, it didn't mean we were better off than western countries but we simply had a faster growth and telecoms appreciation. Today the growth has slowed and we are gradually approaching our plateau, not becd buying phones or SIMs but because the proportionate growth is evening out. Our teledensity is still quite low for a country of our population, but we have made significant progress.

Better than you who have never made sense.

Are you guys surprised. Haven't you guys noticed this from your environment.

But they wouldn't admit it.

donbrowser:
Education in Nigeria is in a sorry state. But it baffles me that despite the high shoulders of Ekiti state, they cant even make the list of top 10.

Honestly, i am not surprise. I am presently serving in Ekiti somewhere at Ekiti East Local government. I teach mathematics and i would say without fear of being contradicted that out of the whole SS3 students, i can only pick three that might sit for their WAEC without expecting expo and most likely they might not make it (imagine 3 out of a class of nothing less than 60) simple -3+4 na wahala. Talk less of complex calculations. English Language is a big problem to them and mostly they hardly study.
