Wit all due respect I feel that you have not travelled ..I don't want us to go into dick measurement but there is no state in whole western Nigeria apart from federal govt developed Lagos that is better than anambra ..in all ramifications

Can you just name a state ?


Why are you guys very bitter ? Never quote me again ...I have noticed you

uzolexis:


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.

Yorubas dont travel to other lands to do "menial hustling" liek selling Galla on the streets or faking everything in sight.

Go to any country in the world today... and tell me if you wont find Yorubas there?

But l am also sure you wont find them doing what every Ibo goes to do, in other people's places.
It is because of this "unbridled criminality" on the alter of 'travelling', that makes countries like S/Africa to set on their fellow African-Nigerians.
Go to "Eabrow in South Africa... and see what our "travelling brothers" have turned the place into - A Haven of Drug Pedlers and Couriers.
Same with many Asian countries!


Yorubas dont just travel, for the sake of Travelling and becoming a nuisance to their host community ............. That's the difference.

100 per cent!!!?

I am a Yoruba man and a Nigerian. I don't go to Igboland to disturb the Igbos, I don't go to Hausaland to disturb the Hausas so why the hell should an Igbo be disturbing me in my own territory? Abuja was set up in the centre of the country and that where you should go and make your Federal Government claims. Anuma.......

irynterri:
that was several years ago..right now abia has the highest..and as for those of you complaining abt S.E schools I have met students from ogun state college of science and tech. to be precise who can't make a speak English for 10mins without adding Yoruba,and their spelling was nothing to write home about,u can barely see an average ogun kid conversing fluently in english.I have equally met such cases in the east,eket and the north will be the worst.in my uni,those of us who schooled in lag are no match to students from fggc owerri,fgc okigwe,onitsha and government colledge owerri,most best graduating students are always alumni of those schools.I think environment and exposure has a lot to do in a child's development,parents too should help their wards,students dis days don't read books like things fall apart e.t.c they are more bothered with Facebook,sports betting,nairaland and girls

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.

vivalavida:


If that your friend who sells stockfish is in owerri and an ex futite,i know him. Meaning u studied geology

tonychristopher:


But igbo spike out and are speaking out you termed them wailers

Who where those that collaborated with the north here in south to put us here

We know them but let posterity judge

Biafrarep:
Wow such a small world! yes I graduated from futo, geology 2009 set. what about you?

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

Anyway, l understand Igbos to be very resilient people, who could survive alike, in the good, bad and the ugly Nigeria. But other ethnic groups are also doing their bests, dreaming for a better Nigeria. Just that there has not been this concerted agreement, over what should be focused upon, aside the petty politics of calumny and suspicion we play. The greater Nigeria will emerge if the Yoruba man, the Igbo man, the Hausa/Fulani man and others are helped to explore and develop themselves by themselves in a loose federation.
Igbos have genuine issues to complain a times about marginalization, for instance, I don't know why river Niger can't be dredged to support the import dependent enterprise of the Ndigbo. Same with Calabar port and other infrastructure like international airport. But Igbos should not forget that they are just one of the major ethnic groups, and as such, have limited things Nigeria can give them, in relation with what others receive. They are to be patient and learn to forget the past, especially the war, which was rather unfortunate. I think all Nigerians should be wailing wailers now because the situation at hand really deserves collective voice, irrespective of tongues and ethnic divide. Lets all get up and wiyh one voice demand true ferderalism. But it begins first with re-structuring Nigeria to pave way for better things to come.

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.

Help me tell them o, we even. Had to mentor them by producing the african vice chancellor of university college ibadan and unilagos

sapiosexual1:

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.

deeptechcool:


In actual fact, you are proving the statistic wrong.

ibedun:


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.

CCsurplus007:


lol so I should shiver because you graduated as the best in 1996? This is a public forum, if you want to be a boss prolly when I am under your payroll. your previous post has shown exactly the kind of person you are, hence your attack towards me . There is more to life than been a tribalist life is too short Oga

lordyugo:


dnt embarrass urself.
Let me lecture u abit,there are 2types of hazardsnatural or environmental hazards and man induced hazards). Geological and meteorological hazards are natural hazards e.g coastal erosion, earthquake etc.

As an assignment find out which one soil erosion falls under (.natural or man made).
Hope for d sake of ur students u r not a corper.
