Hmmn am I the only one not getting it? He can’t start his primary school at the age of 4? Or maybe it was rare in the 80s?

The tale of you can’t start school unless your hand can touch the other hair or something? Lol

I actually started my primary education at 3 years,being a teachers son,and that was in 1982 even though i repeated the class thereby making it 4 years,i don't see what the problem is.

I was born in 1980 too and started my primary school in 1984. I can totally prove it.

Is possible.
I started primary one 4+. I was enrolled in primary one in April, while I completed 5 in September same year.

Some children have the privilege of going to school very early in life.

In the thread, many testified to it, they started primary school at that age.
That is why you see fourteen-fifteen years old in university studying.

Of course, one can start school at age 4. It’s not about the age he was when he started his primary education, but the 1980 date of birth the man is claiming doesn’t tally with what he wrote in his CV.

But his CV is saying a different thing. Who do we offend in this country? Politicians are the problem of this country.

I disagree with you. I was born in 1980. @5 I was in primary school in 1985. My younger brother joined @4 in 1986. This was what my older siblings told me. It was before Nigerian civil war. After that war, such measures was banished. I finished secondary school @17, while my younger brother @16.

What is wrong there or even bringing an uproar. Is absolutely possible for one to start primary school at the age of four. Because I started primary school at that same age.

Perhaps its depends on ur geo political zone. I started at age 5 in 1988 same yr with my elder sister cos she was rejected the previous yr due to her small stature. I was admitted cos I am tall and could write. I was the youngest in that schl. I finished sec schl at age 16 also

We have a serious problem in Nigeria. Foreigners are graduating at 15-16years and we are arguing 4 years in basic 1. He is a professor at less than 45 and an Engr. Why would a technocrat argue that simple analogy for goodness sake.

No sir. It tallied with what he wrote. People just don't believe you can enter school at years. Some 4 years are bigger and taller than 6 years children. Touching your opposite ear is a factor of your height. It is very possible and should not be argued

I think most of the people in
strategic political positions come
from rural backgrounds where you
don't start school until you are 7 to 8
years old..

I don't really see the big deal about
someone starting primary at 4.

An auntie of mine, born in the mid 70s
started secondary school at the age 9
so, she couldn't have started primary school
later than 4 years & then spent only
5 years in primary during the era of 7 years
primary.

Re: Ministerial Nominee, Joseph Utsev, Told Senate He Started Primary School At 4 by Zezco(m): 8:43pm On Jul 31, 2023
It's possible because those private schools don't follow public school rules on age then.

I started secondary at the age of 11 and I have classmates who are 8 and 9 years in j.s.s one class in 90's.

It started in 1973. Anyone born in the 80's knows this.

6-3-3-4 started in 1973? I don't think you know what 6-3-3-4 is, no need to argue with you.
