kraftykc: Yes oh, my Coal City is seating pretty in the 3rd spot. I love the fact that south seems bound by merit and it will reside on all those young men and women that they are taken to be of higher intelltual calibre. But by doing this, the stupid unity is fostering disunity by breeding the potential inferiority complex in students. I went to a government school and the brightest students in maths, physics and chemistry were from Borno and Zamfara. Nigerians are universally intelligent this is a stupid, stupid process

During the 50s when the british recruited nigerians based on merit the igbos dominated and the rest of nigeria became jealous and attacked the igbos

Its not by accident that when igbos are close to power nigeria grows faster and everything works well ...check the records

Lets go back to regional government ,lets see who would be on top

I believe several factors were put in consideration for the cut-off, the cut-off mark from the west is low because of numbers of other public secondary schools available, candidates already spread to other available public and private secondary schools available which relieve pressure on unity schools in the west. Public secondary schools in Oyo alone not to talk of Lagos and Osun or numbers of standard private secondary schools is huge; more pubils applied to other public and private schools which put less pressure on unity secondary schools in the south-west

That of the north is due to low numbers of enrollment to unity schools and being academically disadvantaged

This old 2014 statistics can suggest idea, even though lots must have been changed and more secondary public and private secondary schools must have been created in each state in Nigeria

Story. The gospel truth is that the South West is doing badly in education. Your governors and stakeholders need to sit up and do something about this fall.
In the case of the north, nothing can change their generational educational backwardness. I think it's time the north stop looking for favours through quota system and fully integrate Qur'anic education.
You can't give what you don't have. Rather you breed lazy cheats and those always looking for government handouts. There is need to scrap unity schools in places like Yobe and Zamfara and enforce technologically advance almajiri education.

What is rubbish there or you can't comprehend simple thing? Do the South East has more public secondary schools more than the South West? Do the South East has more private secondary schools than the South West? Many other public and private secondary schools in the West absorb more pubils, which decongest numbers of pubils chosen or applying to unity secondary schools. Also, West has highest numbers of Universities, polytechnics and colleges of education in the country; all these institutions have their own secondary schools where pubils applied to instead of unity schools. All these factors contributed to low cut-off marks in the West because opportunity are evenly distributed in the West. So stop acting like illetrate, do your research well by starting from the link in my first post instead of bragging over nothing. This is a simple mathematics you can do if you open your mind to learn instead of being emotionally sentimental. Come out with constructive criticism that is provable with facts and not just talk because you feel like opening your mouth

Igbo dominated what sector of production?

Your fathers were hired as porters to load groundnut and cocoa sack into ships. The reason Igbos thronged to Zungeru was to work on railroad...again as boy boy.

Tell us what jobs you dominated in prior to Azikiwe rewarding you illegally to positions you were not qualified to occupy.

lol are you running from the truth or what?
Before civil war igbos dominated primarily all sectors in Nigeria.
In the educational sector
An Igbo was the first VC of Unilag
An Igbo was also the first VC of Ui

Igbos controlled two regions, the Midwest and the Eastern region
Dennis osadebe was the premier of the Midwest region

One third of the military officers were igbos.

45 is too high for Borno o. They wan kill them? They should have made the cut off mark for Borno state zero.
