CSTR2:
IMO has the highest number of professors according to the NUC.

The most educated state in the country,with a strong competition from Delta, thanks to the highly educated anioma bloc.

The SE as a geopolitical zone has emerged as the most educated in Nigeria right now.

Though it can change.

Chukazu:


And who is talking of Educationally disadvantage/ less privileged states of Rivers , Akwaibom and Bayalsa ?
Am talking of "shoulder to shoulder" I beg

CSTR2:
Without the aniomas ,delta would be a full blown militant state.

atorioke:


Sorry sire stands to be corrected
Mean to say states in the southwest

mercyville:


Yorubas still lead in all of these sectors.Igbos are just waking up from their slumber which is a big kudos.Think about the years that Yorubas had single handedly led the whole nation.It is going to take sometime before you can take over if you will ever do that.The highest number of Professors are still being produced by Yorubas especially, Ekiti state.This is the only stat NUC has...

ayagha:


Stop this ignorance already, igbos are minority in Delta

@nwabob
Could you give me the title and author of the book where you got the page/image from?

Thetruthsayer10:
we lead before 1930 after ur brief lead in the same 1930 we lead again check all the first professor yoruba dominate the list

mercyville:

lol..
Let us see your fake NUC stat.I have posted NUC stat and you are still making yourself a laughingstock here.Yorubas still have high numbers of profs in the North including Kwara state where students and lecturers including the profs are 70% Yoruba..There is no competition here.Let me break it down for you.
Yoruba still have the highest number of:
Private universities,schools,people who travel abroad for education,doctors,lawyers,engineers,accountants,etc and professors and leading the pack are 2 Nobel Laureates... Prof Tony Adegbulugbe and Prof Wole Soyinka.
Though Igbos are really playing catch up.

nwabobo:


Why are you like this? What does being a minority or majority have to to with performance?

What's the population of Jews compared to their contribution to global development?

ayagha:


please visit the universities and higher institutions in Delta state and across Nigeria and do a little census of Aniomas and compare to the Urhobos and Isokos.I believe u will be better informed.

ibadanfinest:


Not all school use quota system UI/Uch does not. Even where they are used, all southwestern states are on favoured.

Thetruthsayer10:
we lead before 1930 after ur brief lead in the same 1930 we lead again check all the first professor yoruba dominate the list

nwabobo:


Dude, we are not talking about numbers here but performance.

List Deltans who are educated and professionally successful from the various tribes, let's take it from there.

ibadanfinest:


Congrat bro. The only poiñt you missed is thinking we value is certificate not quality education. that's all.

Education has been bastardize now, that does not mean its our culture

ayagha:


How can you be the most educated when you don't have the numbers in school.
It's totally impossible to make a list of all successful Deltans. You can only do a little survey in an environment like Lagos. How many Aniomas do you have in your place of work compared to ....

Jokerman:
How can a landlocked red muded people be beating us that are sophisticated even at Medicine??

As a Yoruba moozlim I have to join hands with my other moozlims to chase this people out of Ibadan before they take over it like they are doing in lasgidi...

Allah akbar

ibadanfinest:



Bros I did not complain I only analysed. At the end of the whole thing I reiterated that post like this will not make us tribalistic. Stop seeing all comment as complain.

nwabobo:


I can off the top of my head mention people like

Ngozi Iweala
Tony Elumelu
Jim Ovia
Pat Utomi
Buchi Emecheta
Joy Ogwu
Ibe Kachikwu
Ben Okri
Stephen Kesh
Jay Jay Okocha
Sunday Oliseh

etc. Note that I deliberately haven't listed any politician here.

Now, let me educate you more. Let's say Anioma has a population of 100 people and 50 are educated and Urhobo has a population of 1000 and 300 are educated, which would you say is more educated?

It's like saying Nigerians are more educated than the Swedes because we have a larger population in education.

Firstpage:
This should be expected as there are no government schools in Ondo, Ogun and Ekiti states that with Medical Faculties. More Schools, more quota for admission. Osun and Oyo should lead in the southwest because of OAU, Lautech and UCH all have medical schools.

Thetruthsayer10:
oral stats from 2010 to 2016 Yoruba got more admitted to jamb

@nwabob
Could you give me the title and author of the book where you got the page/image from?
