The Southeast has gradually taking back their position as the most educated tribe in Nigeria which they had prior to the civil war. This statement is devoid of any form of tribalism.

It's not by population of the state if not Lagos would have topped the list. It's by state of origin.
Am sure based on region, it will be in the ranking: SW, SE, SS, NC, NW and NE

The south east currently tops in education in Nigeria. This is 2018 not 1980

I'm terribly disappointed not just at the Eastern Palm University but Nigeria at large. This is what happens almost every where. I've been waiting to be called after a successful interview at EPU held last year. Now I know why there have been delays.
It's just unfortunate. Professor Linus did the right thing.

Just log on to www.epu.edu.ng and start off the admission process

Hello EPU, when will you guys start calling for lecturers

The southwest were once the top in education but as at today, the Igbos are the most educated in Nigeria. From statistics by Waec, Neco to NBS education statistics. Latest report by the NBS shows that Imo state is the most educated state in Nigeria. Delta and Anambra follows.

..I always laugh when people say Biafraland can not contain Igbos..

..Lagos State is the smallest state in Nigeria,yet hosts like 25million people and counting...Biafraland which is at least three times the size of Lagos cannot contain 40million or even 50million people??..really??

....I laught at one Nigerianists indeed.

You are quite wrong. There won't even be any issue of over population. Anambra alone is twice the size of Lagos. Now the igbos r probably about 30/40 million. Only anambra state can contain all the igbos. We would have no issue with over population in anyway.

Oga op, southeast is as developed as any part of Nigeria and under developed as any part of Nigeria. Away from Lagos, south west is extremely under developed.what the east lack is federal presence. We know how Stella odua was fought because of enugu international airport but they didn't succeed. Away from this you should be thinking more about your people, you have no business with the igbos

Let me correct the impression in ur last sentence, graduate of any school can be anywhere, irrespective of whatever school one has attend and it geographical location. Polytechnics have equally produced graduates doing very fine in diaspora. There is absolutely no limit to what we can achieve regardless of our respective alma mata.

I beg to differ on ur comment sir. I attended a polytechnic and another university before heading for unilag, it's imperative to note that I lead consecutively in the poly and was among to leading in that varsity too. I decided to forge ahead at the faculty of engineering, unilag. To my greatest dismay, I lost balance immediately. Apart from whatever we were thought in class, those guys have vast knowledge of so many things I couldn't comprehend. They could understand anything, no matter how abstract. I was disappointed at myself despite putting more effort than I've done in previous schools.

Having experience a lot, I can make bold to say first class differs, a first class can be a last class in another school. I don't in anyway doubt ur ability, however, I'm curious to know that school u obtain ur M.Sc from. Maybe Fuyeekiti but thinking u won't meet fierce competition among graduates of those schools u earlier mentioned is not so true. I've been there before.

Ma my CGPA couldn't be compared with majority of my coursemates. The best of the best from these schools I had mentioned where my coursemates. I know two of them who already had an msc from the university of Ibadan bfr coming down to the university of Lagos to read the same course with me. We where just two from eastern universities, while I was from imsu the other came from nsukka and we both made distinction. Again I repeat with utmost confidence, south western schools are hugely over rated. I made a distinction with a cgpa of 4.80 from the university of Lagos while the UIs ilorins OAUs unilags where struggling for PhD grade.

Orikinla:
First Class graduate at FUTO may not stand up to Second Class lower graduate of University of Ibadan, OAU or UNILAG.
But a First Class graduate of UI can stand up to First Class graduates of Oxford, Cambridge and Yale.

The academic calibre of the faculty determines the quality of education in a university.

Initially I had wanted to insult you but I won't go low to your standard. I finished my bsc from a IMO state university, came over to the so called best federal university in Nigeria somewhere in south west for my masters degree. I had all the UIs unilags OAUs ilorins as course mate. some with first class while some already has masters degree in the same course. none of them saw my back. I finish
ed top of the class with a land slide. South western schools are hugely over rated. What I did in my bsc in imsu was 70% of what I did in ur best federal university. I know some one from Michael okpara university doing her PhD in Cambridge and someone from unizik doing his PhD in MIT.

My very own Idowu... Still remember your small laptop we use to watch movies in the staff room during our service year.
Never knew till this morning. May God grant you speady recovery in every area.
Never again will any ex aiyepe corper fall victim of the devil. Amen

I'm really impressed by the development in Anambra. God bless the Igbo land.

This is how people would come here and post rubbish. I have come to realise that haters of the great Igbo nation would do anything possible to bring us down. This picture was in Edo and not anywhere near Igbo land. Its time for Igbo haters to face their region and leave us alone. Plz ignore them. They are below us that's why they try as much as possible to bring us down to there level.

great respect for GEJ.

nicedas:
South sudan were living in heaven with the muslim majority before, now they have gotten what they requested for, our ibo brothers pls learn now so you dont end up like them.

The Igbo nation is not south Sudan. we are too educated for such. We may argue amongst each other but we can never carry weapon. Competition among the Igbo's would take us to greater heights. pls don't worry about us. We would be fine.

biz9ja:
Decide for yourself

OAU vs LASU

Unilag vs IMSU

UI vs OOU

I had my first degree at IMSU and I went to UNILAG for my MSC. finished with a distinction. Even the UIs OAUs UNIBENs ILORINs couldn't compete. it isn't where you finish from that matters. Its who you are.
