XVIER:
before you toot your horn hope you know Imo state has the highest candidate cos most of them are brain dead so gaining admissions is very difficult for them so they keep rewriting and the numbers keep adding on. Don't ask me how I know, I've been to Imo state on several occasions and I've studied them. Peace

So we guess the yoruba states that got second, third and fourth are brain dead too.
More'than Zamfara that came lower

Great analysis!

Yoruba population is about 42m courtesy of the polygamy being practised among Yoruba Muslims . Igbos number 30m. I think relative to each tribe's composition, the records are encouraging.

The group I feel proudest of is Bayelsa. With less than 500,000 registered voters, they presented nearly 20,000 candidates for JAMB. The literacy level in that tiny state with very low population is out of this world

Mumu! The population of Yoruba's and igbos in the country is almost the same, quit giving yourself false hope.

BreakupNigeria:
Your ignorance and illiteracy stinks to high heavens. Check the number of candidates that gain admission into universities each year and tell me if Imo has not been coming tops. Also check the state with the highest number of undergraduates and graduates in the civil service and tell me if records does not prove that Imo is by far the number one state. Even literacy rates among Imo indigenes can be compared to that of advanced countries, so stop hating and continue playing your Perrin catch up game which even in the next 100 years you will never get to the level of Imo

Go and check d Admission stats for each year, imo state has one of the least percentage for admission rates.

Philistine:

Add up all the applicants from South west together, u will get a total of almost 400,000, which is far more than all the applicants from South East region by over a 100,000. Next time u think before u talk!

Lagos no dey write jamb? Despite the high population! Abi all of us in Lagos are working class?

Someone educate me on this stat!


We need to get rid of this state of origin shiii, they should introduce state of residence.

It's not by state of residence, but state of origin.

InyinyaAgbaOku:


How many states dey SE vs SW

It is not about states, but the population of both region which of course is at par with each other. D point is that Yoruba get more admitted into higher institutions every year more than igbos. Even if another state is created for igbos it will be created from the already existing states.

Postanalyser:

Add all the figures from northern states and you will be ashamed of yourself. As overpopulated as the west and north is(as a result of child birth without control, which is a characteristic of illiteracy) ,an Eastern state still top them in any academics related issues, that should be enough reason for you to accept the fact that you're all sophisticated mor.ons indeed.

I tot u always claim to ve the highest population in Nigeria. Meanwhile northern states are divided into three regions just like southern states. U always seems to put them all as one even with the middlebelt..

emezuo17:
.that is very very wrong, imo state has always had the highest number of both entries to write and admission into higher institutions than other states, even now they have overtaken ekiti as the highest with professors, stop hating iam not from imo state though, but the truth is the truth

Where is the stats to prove that Imo have more professors than ekiti state, igbos and lies are like bread and butter

iaamxavier:
IGBOS be making us proud

Even dating back to the war
We still gain our Ground
Where are the sophisticated ones?

Even most candidates from non Igbo states are made up of Igbos too. I laugh when people say Igbos are not educated.

Teeisaac:
Bayelsa boy no like sch .na our oyel Dem go dey shout up$down

It's obvuous your own schooling i's a waste. You expect the state with the least population in naija to be tops?

ORIENTATION101:
before you spin and twist as usual here is the figures per region
South west region =3,918, 66
South east region= 3 ,062,48.

this one don't even know addition

MrBigiman:


Southerners are Educated, but use that Education to outsmart each other. Imagine 5 Igbo presidential aspirants already.

The North hold no hope for true leadership. Ineffective education breeds ineffective policies.
.
It's time to take it back from the northern cabals. Fear yorubas too though, they have always colluded with northerner to rip this country. I wonder what their gain is?

Just because of 2015. Check history and see those that have bin colluding with northerner...

dejavuh0007:
what do dey mean by OTHERS? are those people Fulani herdsmen?

Foreigners

Basic123:

They have always colluded?

YOU HAVE A VERY POOR KNOWLEDGE OF HISTORY JUST LIKE YOUR OTHER IGBO BROTHERS.

you are surely pained about 2015 election realignment.IGBO has always been hausa/Fulani Ally in politics since 1959 why Yoruba land is know has hot bed to you both useless government

The northern bigots and the Yoruba asslickers must face judgement, no doubt. People are dying and another section is starving, and the only facade u hold on to is some dirty knowledge of history that belong to the trash can of oblivion.

Right now Yorubas and Hausa's are our problem, and it's glaring before our eyes.

dhabrite:
The lowest entries are from the backward northernera, yet they will love to clinge to power like its their birthright.

They should all go to hell!!

with your so called education, you all ended up drinking the urine of the late white rabbit of miserable memory.

BabbanBura:


Foreigners

if they r from neighbouring west African countries pls don't call dem foreigners cox am yet to see a white kid in any of Nigeria's tertiary institutions.

nigerfine:
you are cursing a tribe without thinking twice the reason behind the suggestion, place of residence removes tribal clashes ok. in Rwanda it is a crime to mention your tribe in public. Rwanda is now the safest place in Africa. place of residence removes tribal clashes ok.

Rwanda is not Nigeria. We don't want. We prefer Nigeria to be split.
Fvck Nigeria!

dejavuh0007:

Bros you make me laugh, what are they then of not foreigners?
I schooled with many of them back then

this is the first time that the north has divorced the igbo, since after the civil war, they have been crying like a motherless baby.

so that means if u travelled to Ghana, u will b telling folks back here in Nigeria that u traveled abroad abi ?

Oyo, Ogun and Osun have more applicant than lagos and lagos have the largest population in southwest.

90 percent Lagosians are non indigenes, and the computation is based on applicants states of origin

Ogbeni try to keep your mouth shut! How did Yorubas collude with the North to rip the country? Did Nnamdi Azike not rule Nigerid for six years? Was Ekwueme not vice president for over two years? You iboes are born to be pathetic liars!

u see ur life! I said 'go n dig dia history' u WL find out dt a 3rd of dem have Igbo background. I am Igbo but from Niger state. olodo, I know u WL stl not understand.

A third of them have iboe background! Can you imagine this lie? I never knew you iboes are this sick in the head. Wow! Unbelievable!

It's not true., check the stats released by NUC last year.
Imo has the highest entrants to university nationwide, Anambra comes third.
So, what are u saying?

The east has the best literacy rate in Nigeria, literates Iver the overall eastern population
