This is grossly unfair


For many parents and stakeholders in the education sector, the public notice by the National Examination Council (NECO) may well be the start of another unending controversy over who eventually makes it onto the final admission list, and from what region of the country.
Not that the whining is an unnecessary fuss by some losers who failed in their bid to secure a slot in the unity arrangements exactly. The griping has always been that the admission policy into those federal colleges is skewed in favour of the North even though the preliminary intent of the unity colleges is to foster unity among Nigeria’s over 300 ethnic nationalities.

To keep the hope of getting on the admission list alive, the cut-off mark system requires candidates from states in the South-East and South-West to score significantly higher marks than their counterparts from the North, or those states dubbed educationally disadvantaged.

Yobe;
Male 2
Female 27.

Obviously, North don’t want their females to be educated.

All these are emotional arguments and lacking logic

The purpose of the creation of Unity schools is to have equal representation from all states in Nigeria. Full stop

The admission is not solely based on the highest marks its to have every part of the country represented in the class to foster Unity. That is the purpose for creating Unity Scholls
So cutoffs are set to ensure that happens

What is the point of a Unity school if all the students are from Anambra and Ogun state, what is the Unity in that

Well,nothing wrong with this,everyone has to be equally represented.Lets not forget that here in the South(the South East especially) cheating is involved in almost all centers such examinations are conducted.

Superficially attractive logic
However when people are getting in with Mark's of 4 and 7 in contrast to 134 that is quite extreme

Should such individuals attend secondary schools?
Will they profit?

In my opinion there should be a minimum cut off

There are many schools that were established for merits, If you seek merit admission go there. The unity schools were specifically established for National Unity

Despite the cut off of 4 and 7 how many people from those states still attend the schools. The cut off of 4 and 7 are what they deemed low enough to catch people from those areas

If there is a minimum cutoff and no one from these states still dont meet it, How do you meet the main goals for establishing those schools

Bross! You can't superficially wish this away. What you wrote above doesn't really make any sense because state of origins are normally used, this render your argument useless, since a kid whose parents are from any of those southern state will still have to pass the cut of mark even if such a kid was born and raised in Zamfara.

What we should have is to reserve some slots, let say 10% percent for education less developed states and then allow everyone else to fight for the remaining 90% through merit only.

No sir! Unity schools are the only federal government secondary school, established to supplement those provided by the state government. They are better funded and should be reserved for the brightest in our society

Ok....you support this and for the reason you just gave- balanced representation and unity.

Do you support the dominance of the security apparatus of this country by persons from a single region to the exclusion of others by this Buhari regime?

Schools funded by Federal govt is assumed that the income comes from all states, So why shouldn't indigenes from all states have a chance at it not only those with superior academic backgrounds

FGN is not in the business of secondary education, Those Unity schools were for a specific purpose. You don't have to attend a Federal secondary school, there are over a million non-federal secondary school. There are state schools, private schools etc

You know in America If an Asian(Chinese and Indian) scores the same marks as a Hispanic in the SAT. The Hispanic student has a better chance of admission because of Affirmative action a law that seeks to have equal representation of educationally disadvantaged groups
