Those Eastern brothers States should should buckle up as a whole. I am happy that the schools the govt took over are returning to their owners. I am nostalgic about DMGS and CKC onitsha, CIC Enugu, WAPI and Hope Wadell Calabar, Methodist college Uzoakoli, SAGS Nkwerre, the Eastern Government colleges at Port Harcourt, Umuahia, Owerri (my alma mater), Afikpo, and Queens Enugu. And many others to many to list.
Before the 70s (govt take over), I am sure that a WAEC pass of anything less than 70% would not be celebrated excerpt with ashes and sackcloth. But here we are clinking classes for a whole Anambra with 35% failure. We even blamed NEPA for mass failure as if bulk of academic work at that level is nocturnal. Ndigbo tetanu nura. Chi ebogo!

Just noticed you don't have bayelsa on this list.

Ogonimilitant: with all the private school paying millions per term in Lagos state
where is the result? when I tell them that private school is just a status thing
they will not agree with me

musiwa94:


You can see that revenue is the reason why student of Western Nigeria failed and there is no need to continue the relationship with Nigeria.

atlwireles: People keep trashing Abia's state government on these online forums, yet Abia is always well represented when it truly counts. The Gov and the state must be doing something right.

There are more students that passed in lagos than all those who sat the exam in anambra, just because a lot more failed doesn't mean many didn't pass.

OrlandoOwoh:
I was among the examiners who marked last WAEC. I know what I'm saying. I still remember how a team leader reacted when I was so strict in my marking.

atlwireles:

There are times serious thought process are required, when discussing public policy. Worry about your state's performance and stop making everything in this country about tribe. Tells us how your state performed and why?

Hello I thought u saw that statistics its not on individuality its just the general percentage. So take it or leave it lagos is lagging behind despite all the millions parent are blowing into private school for their children

new2020:

[s]Understand that 70-80% of people that passed in Lagos are not Yorubas. I'm sure SE and SS in Lagos account for 50% of those that passed. Yes Lagos is in SW geographically however demographically it's not a SW state....it's just like Abuja; this is common sense that Yoruba people cannot use! Stop claiming it...focus on Ondo, Osun, Ogun and Ekiti! [/s]

django1:

What do you mean, “individuality"?

The number of students that passed still shows that many people are still doing okay, generally, the south west isn't doing great but we can still see that there are so many candidates here and a substantial number of them passed.

The government secondary schools are dead right from primary school up, there is a lot of work to be done in that sector.

Congrats to all those that passed but ibos making tribalistic comments here will turn around to complain later when Yoruba starts their own.

babyosisi:


.......I bet you the 45% pass that Lagos state got is because of the SS and SEasterners in Lagos bringing the numbers up
Take them off,Lagos will be in the neighborhood of 25% like neighboring Ogun state

eaglechild:
Are you saying your colleagues are lenient.
But that hasn't helped your state performance.

Which means that if they used Anambra standards to mark it, they will perform evev worse.

chinasaekperem: [s]70% of those students in lagos aren't yorubas, stop committing suicide over this small issue, I can authoritatively tell you that IGBOS HAVE MORE STUDENT IN LAGOS THAN YORUBAS , with all sagacity.[/s]

OdenigboAroli:

Why are you so worried about Imo,what about Enugu where your beloveth Sullivan Chime is performing wonders.
It also beats my imagination to stupor that you are asking why is Anambra always coming first...As if you dont know the amount of reform that went down in Anambra education sector,while Chime is planting flowers and sweeping roads...lol
Funny guy.

Psylas: i thought boko haram was joking when they said "western education is sin"

new2020: [size=14pt]Does Seun and moderators want us to scream to the top of our lungs before they will move this thread to the top of the page? This thread needs to stay #1 for at least 48 hrs...why place useless threads above this? Where are our priorities? [/size]

76Naira: Even with all the question leakages.
The northern states need to sit up. Well, maybe Boko Haram would be happy with their poor performance.

meforyou1: This table is so instructive.
I am glad that female pupils are waxing stronger. More females passed more than their male counterparts. The southerners passed more than their northern counterparts.
So wish our northern elected officials shall take this as a challenge and take education in their areas to another level, we will all be happy for it. Andd we pray for our children in the troubled north east.
Let's keep this thread clean, it's the lives of the future ones that's at stake here.

emiye:




The total number of students who sat for wassce from anambra are roughly 50,000 students


Now imagine 486 illegal runs centre in the state. Divide 50,000 by 486, and tell me what you get.

Understand that 70-80% of people that passed in Lagos are not Yorubas. I'm sure SE and SS in Lagos account for 60% of those that passed...if you extract SE, SS and North from LAGOS result, I assure you Lagos will be fighting for status with Yobe state. Yes Lagos is in SW geographically however demographically it's not a SW state....it's just like Abuja; this is common sense that Yoruba people cannot use! Stop
claiming it...focus on Ondo, Osun, Ogun and Ekiti!

OrlandoOwoh:
If you don't know how WAEC scripts are shared in all the states, ask to be told. Scripts are taken outside the geo-political zones of where the candidates sat for the exam. I marked scripts from outside the South West, where I was.
On leniency, I don't cut corners, I abide by the rules which have come to be abused by some examiners.
