Southwest placement in WAEC performance index worrisome’

The All Progressives Congress (APC), South Africa chapter, says the placement of Southwest states in the recent West African Examinations Council(WAEC) performance index depicts downward trend in the quality of education in the region.

The Chapter’s Chairman, Bola Babarinde, in a statement on Sunday in Osogbo, expressed concern over poor performance of students in the Southwest states at the 2022 West African Senior School Certificate Examinations (WASSCE).

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the 2022 WASSCE result showed that Nigerian students performed five per cent worse than what they did in 2021 nationwide.

Babarinde said there was urgent need for the Development Agenda for Western Nigeria (DAWN) Commission to organise educational summit, where all stakeholders in the education sector would proffer solution to the problem.

He said the Commission created by the six states of Lagos, Ogun, Ondo, Oyo, Osun and Ekiti should also set up agenda for increase in school enrollment with provision of educational facilities.

“With proven and recorded advantages and achievements of gathering the intelligentsia in proffering solution, just like was done by the Security Summit organised to improve our security architecture and circumstances.

“We suggest that the DAWN organise an educational summit where all stakeholders in the education sector in both public and private sub-sectors; and international education bodies like UNICEF and UNESCO gather to engage and deliberate on solutions.

“We also advise and encourage the Commission to set the agenda for increase in school enrollment and better educational facilities.

“Making public education attractive and competitive with privately funded counterparts.

“We also call for the involvement of non profit organisations in assisting government educational institutions in the rural areas, especially in adult literary and vocational training by funding and supply of equipment and materials,” he said.

Babarinde said being a past President and Assistant Governor of Rotary Club of Pretoria West, Pretoria, South Africa, with tremendous network with international organisations on partnerships, he was ready to support the Southwest states on sustainable development in the education sector.

“We are calling on leadership in the Southwest to quickly swing into action in stemming the tide in the deplorable state of education in the region to avoid total collapse of our public education, especially primary education.

“The Nigerians in Diaspora are willing to work with the DAWN in bringing about the quality of education to the glorious era of Chief Obafemi Awolowo in the region”, he said.

According to him, DAWN since inauguration has recorded feats in its efforts towards bringing about regional socioeconomic development and integration by organising programmes in pursuit of its mandate.

Babarinde commended the Commission for conceptualising the security summit that birthed Amotekun Corps and its subsequent gains in the security affairs of the region.

“DAWN has organised summits to engage intellectual powerhouses to deliberate and proffer solutions to lingering issues such as the rural security problems that bedeviled the region few years ago.

“We commend the Commission’s role in midwifing the regional security network called Amotekun Corps that has helped in mitigating security issues in the region.

“DAWN has enjoyed efficient leadership since inception which has been sustained and continued with by the present Director-General, Mr Sola Oyeleye, a technocrat and strategic manager of human and material resources,” he said.

Stop all the lies. Waec does not release any stats. They have said it so many times, it is the handiwork of Igbo propagandists. Where are all the igbos that passed waec in flying colours in the last 25yrs? Why are they not dominating the whole professions in the country today?

So, Waec is wrong and bloggers are right.? Waec has said it several times, that they do not release any stats. Where are all igbos that claimed to have dominated Waec in the last 25yrs? Why are they not dominant in all the professions today? Lies and propaganda cannot take you far in life.

WAEC had always debunked those fake stats being peddled by my Igbo brethrens.
You cannot come tops with lies and deceit.
The aunthentic NUC number of Profs still confirms the stranglehold the SW(Yoruba) has on Education.
The 'Anambra came first 'claimed by HE Obi is and was always fake.The SE is still down in the guttters of Education with SW having 3 times the Profs the SE has in the very recent NUC stats.

Your frog brain should tell you that WAEC has never done state by state in any of the 5 countries it administers.
Your frog brain should have told you also that it is fake because it has always been almost the same order every year.

Stop lying for WAEC.

WAEC stats has been available even before Nigerians know what the word "blog" means.

Here is a recent official report about WAEC results.
https://education.gov.ng/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/WAEC_RESULTS_STATISTICS_2016-2018.pdf

What smart people do is read the report and summarise it in news article. It doesn't mean they
created the source report.

Or did the "bloggers" plant this one too?

Michelle70:

That is why this press release is beginning to look suprising and even Suspicious especially after WAEC disowned the information published

At the bold, I wonder too.

If even 10% of the populace can think independently, we will be or very close to a first-world country.
But here we are with people whose brains are wired to accept whatever they are told.

I didn't release the info is different from all the info released are false.

This organization is headed by smart people who understand the downward trajectory
of SW WAEC achievement over the years. That is why they are asking question and
suggesting solutions.

Do you understand statistics and why it is done?
https://education.gov.ng/wp-content/uploads/2019/10/WAEC_RESULTS_STATISTICS_2016-2018.pdf

If Buhari said he released 10 billion to Lagos and 2 billion to Ondo and then
some news portal decide to compare the figures.
Do you think it is a lie if they come up with some conclusions after the comparison based on the data
provided?

I can't believe I have to explain this basic facts.

WAEC said it never did.



cos what they did was just pure statistics while WAEC has the real info devoid of stats.
Weda u choose to believe ir not. WAEC said "they didnt do something like this and the public should disregard it as it was just mischief makers"

We will take WAEC word, WAEC is not just a blog to disregard a statement made by them that concerns them

Frog brain,WAEC has debunked the fakey and that is final.
The aunthentic NUC number of Profs still confirms the stranglehold the SW(Yoruba) has on Education.SE is still trailing very much behind and fake stats cannot help you.
SE has to wake up because the Hausas are pushing SE into the 3rd or 4th position now.

Why should you know me? Do I look like an agbadorian?

Waec is not a propaganda agent like your lagos-ibadan express way brown envelop propaganda machine.

You don't pass waec by doing yahoo.
That stat is correct, get used to it
