This is evil. By doing this they admit that they are inferior to the South. Why?

NaijaMutant:


They think they are doing us


The uneven competition is spurring our kids to greater conquest.

The only downside is that the poorly educated and academically deficient north will later come to rule over their better south, with the help of the Yorubas

Case closed, matter settled

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

Thats the irony of it all....crazy country.

SenecaTheYonger:


They have been the ones leading your country hahahahaha

SanusiGworo:


Cut-off marks for Unity Schools:

Anambra 139
Imo 138
Enugu 134
Delta 131
Lagos 133
Ogun 131
Kebbi 9 (male) 20 (female)
Sokoto 9 (male) 13 (female)
Taraba 3 (male) 11 (female)
Yobe 2 (male) 27 (female)
Zamfara 4 (male) 2 (female)

What are Northern leaders doing to address this?

Instead of upgrading their education system they want to degrade the education system in the entire country to make it possible for them North to cope

bukatyne:


Let me agree with you.

Why does the North have different quota numbers for their males and females?

Don't they go through the same primary education?

The females need higher marks than the males to go to that school, not because they are more intelligent, it's because the northern elites don't want the girls to get education easily, they know that when they educate a girl they educate her generations.

It's not only Boko Haram that hate western education,

The northern leaders hate western education too.
They want to keep their people in ignorance

raumdeuter:


When I wrote the National Common entrance, there was a different cutoff for Male and Female in all states. In the SW the cutoff for male was higher than female

I don't know why there is a difference in the North maybe the girls are smarter than the boys and you need to bump up the girls cutoff to get the desired numbers

“If you educate a man, you educate one person. If you educate a woman, you educate a nation/generations”. ...

An educated woman is better able to educate her own children who, in turn, will be more likely to receive school education themselves.

The Northern leaders understood that.
The girls are not smarter than the boys

The Northern leaders wants to frustrate the girls,
They don't want their people to be educated, they want to be using them as tools.

It's not only Boko Haram that hate western education.

Who is "YOU"

No one imposed the identity on the " North" they have a CHOICE
They voluntarily created bodies like
AREWA
Northern Elders forum
Northern Governors Forum
etc

No one forced them

Also at independence There was a Western region but The Midwest said they want no part of it. They had a vote and the Midwest region was created

No one is forcing anyone to be anything

You do not know how to reason

What do you mean by

If there is a North there should be a South?
So if your children have measles your neighbours children should have measles?

Those In the northern part must make their own choice and no one can choose for them
They cannot choose for others
There is nothing like southerner

You're a zombie claiming to be smart
Who cares about what they call themselves,
You can't force the South to bear something you wish,
We have 6 geopolitical zones in Nigeria,

The Benue people have nothing in common with the Sokoto or Borno people, they are not even part of your so-called northern governors forum.

They have theirs as a different region

Then why call it a unity school if ordinary admission criteria is not in unison and indeed unfair.
It should be called another name, not a unity school
