Ariani:


Go and see down, hypocrites irritate me.

How come you don't feature in threads involving Igbo criminals where the Igbo race is usually singled out for bashing and castigation by bitter Nigerian ethnic groups.

How come you don't show up there to hold and warn them tribalists? Huh! You just keep mute and smile behind the scene while Igbo bashing goes on in full speed.

But when Igbos as usually achieve noble feat, and we proud Igbos decide to use it to showcase the magnificence of the great Igbo race, you show your hypocritical face, preaching nonsense humility, biko jee zaluo ala!

This has nothing to do with Tribalism, no one is boasting about this and that, it's utterly ridiculous, childish and immature (and very un-African). Africans are known for humility. Stop speaking trash.

an educated person is someone with the ability to acquire evaluate and process information effectively ,solving Problems with logical reasoning , and having an unbiased look into the consequence of every action taken .. Now I repeat a lot of them r animals , not fit to live with humans , because they act on religious instinct without looking at the consequence of the action on their enviroment .. They mostly think about sex and food alone ( that's why an average hausa man only lives for the day ) .. My grandparents from the west understood their changing enviroment , and they gave their children formal education plus the wisdom they already posess ( which I wud call their own education , they reasoned with their brains ) which their children passed on to my generation ..

and I will put it to you that being literate or otherwise doesn't find expression in any form of violence carried out by a person or group of people.
well you said an average Hausa man only thinks of sex and food alone, that's why they live for the day. I beg to disagree with this point of yours, this statement of yours is as false as saying Nigeria is located in Europe.
ask your grandparents about the history of commerce in Africa, bilateral trade and entrepreneurship, they will tell you if unbiased that it started from the north. you ever wonder why most archaeological findings about Africa human evolution and development speaks more of the North than any other region in West Africa? it's because the people from the North have always device a means to provide for their needs and beyond. so tell me, what reasoning could be more logical than that?
talking about biased thinking and religious sentiments, let for a moment imagine the North ain't an Islamic dominant state, do you wanna tell me they won't still have love for sex and food like you said earlier?
if we bring it down south where the supposed educated beings habit, we will discover that the south are more promiscuous in sexual related atrocities. the number of sexual workers in the south outweighs the North, number of rape cases, baby factory, domestic violence, incest, among others outscores what we have in the North. or maybe you tell me any form of crime committed In the North that we won't find in the south.
the western world have used their education to develop their state, but was has been the effect of education from our so called educated southern brothers, what differentiate them from the northerners, what development has their education brought to the south. most of what we enjoy today are left over developments from the west.
I think the South should save us the embarrassment of being tagged educated if they can't clearly distinguish themselves from the uneducated northerners.
in summasion, hypocrisy is when you accept your grands parents are educated due to their own sense of reasoning, but don't wanna accept a Hausa man sense of reasoning also constitute his education. such hypocrisy is pathetic for a self acclaimed educated person.

and the bastard won't call off strike

Guyman02:
North dont care much about degrees as long as they still have Niger Delta OYEL under their control. They easily get admission with IJMB and Pre-degree programmes into courses of their choice and then get 'targeted recruitment' from CBN and NNPC.

They dont spend money buying jamb forms that will give people from Imo unmarketable courses which they did not apply for like History, sociology, philosophy, forestry that CBN and NNPC will not 'target' them for employment.

you killed it..

Never knew having highest number of jamb candidates is another thing to boast about. We know they all want UNILAG, OAU and UI.

Since they always produce the highest number, there is a strong likelihood they also produce the best. Imo and other southeast and south south States have been dictating the pace with highest JAMB scores for many years. Go and check.

Finally, there is a sizeable population of Igbos in every university in Nigeria and indeed the world. They come there and perform. They dont suffer enclave mentality like you. And we know there is no free tertiary educatioin in Nigeria, so they pay. Besides, if you do not have the requisite JAMB scores to enter your mother's university or you dont have the numbers to fill available slots, you can only complain when others with the requirements fill them up. So am really sorry for your misfortune. doooo

We know u to always boast of owning the world when in actual fact, u can't own urself so I'm not surprised u said u have a sizeable number of serial jamb failure seeking admission yearly into the best universities in Nigeria. Well, most of them just keep choosing and getting rejected. For a long tym, u may maintain the record of leading in the number of jamb candidates cos most of them will retake jamb nxt year. I keep wondering why u flat heads won't stick to ur region rather than jumping around looking for greener pasture in a region u so much detest the host.

lol. U talk about requirements? C'mon, the requirement I see them possessing is that of hawking gala. U know we won't stoop low to dive to ur region where u can barely set up facilities for standard a learning environment.

Keep coming to SW Nigeria, we're accommodating people.

60% lol.
Lets even assume Kwara is only 60% Yoruba, is the population of the Nupes and Fulanis writing JAMB up to that of the Yorubas? Neighboring Niger state where the majority of Nupes live had one of the lowest figures in the country.
Take it or leave it, the proportion of students from Kwara writing JAMB who are Yorubas is no less than 80%

Back to your 60% Assertion , how can Yorubas be 60-65% at most, when 12/16 LGA's in the state are Yoruba? Funny you.

Well, Nupes are not the only indigenes in Niger state if u'd like to know, they are just about 40% of the population and majority of them do not even reside in Niger state, they migrate so so much.

That low percentage of Jamb registration u see in Niger state is a cause of the Gbagyis and other tribes in the state who don't really like going to school, and also the lot of hausa-fulanis in Niger state who migrated from the core north and now claim indigeneship to the state.
Nupes go to school very well just like their other middlebelt neighbours like Igbirra, Igala and Idomas and Nupes are the second largest tribe in Kwara after yoruba.

See, dont let the fact that almost everybody in Kwara state speak yoruba language deceive u. Even those so called 4 non-yoruba dominated LGAs of kwara north, the people there have an almost perfect command of yoruba language.
Only Kwara south indigenes can we say are 100% yorubas by ethnicity, infact i've heard from a kwara indigene that Ifelodun LGA in Kwara south even has some Nupe speaking villages.

As for Kwara central (Ilorin axis) far from it for this region to be considered as yoruba land. This region is fully controlled by the emirates, and most of the elites, ruling houses even some commoners in this region will never claim yoruba ethnicity even though yoruba language is their only mother's tongue. Ethnicity and spoken language are 2 different things. This is why Kwara can never be said to be more than 60-65% yoruba
by ethnicity.
Kwara central is a melange of people of fulani, nupe, bariba and yoruba ancestries united by yoruba language but not by yoruba culture or ethnicity.

One thing that many of us must understand is that this list is not a 100% proof of the literacy rates of our states.
Some states naturally have more indigenous population than the others and naturally such places would have higher rates.
I have always guessed Imo state to be the state with the largest population of indigenes in Nigeria, so am not surprised, but not that we can say Imolites are more educated than Deltans, far from it.

Imo State is far more educated but the irony is that it has little positive impact on productivity among the populace. There is this issue of people believing that graduates are not meant to hustle but should move into labour market seeking for unavailable jobs. IMHO vocational education is more productive than formal education and more important in Imo State. I met someone asking why a graduate should drive Keke and was highly disappointed. Nobody is too big to drive Keke or sell recharge cards.

Tip your cap, give IMO credit and move on

ROYALD:

The most reasonable comment here. I don't know why that is so difficult to do. Give credit to whom credit is due, it won't take anything from you instead they waste time and valuable resources on unnecessary arguments and name calling.

caracas:

You were there in the 185os yet the first african to gi to school was an igbo man -
Yet awolowo went to a part time school,while nnamdi zik was fluorishing with education.
Yet the first indigenous vc of the university of ibadan was an igbo man.

I get am before now you are in omo Nile now and owo Ile

It indicates the level of literacy and also those that yearn for education

ba7man:
Most people just opt for private universities these days and save themselves the JAMB stress.

In the southwest sha.

Escapist excuse

Don't jamb have private universities in their brochures

Armstrong34:

Thats why I love my state, home of intelectuals. I bet with a plot of land that Mbaise alone must have contributed about 40% of that number!

Interesting....it's intellectuals
