Another liar again. There is no stats based on states performance. Those stats circulating on blogs and sites were manufactured by people like you. Only waec has such vital information. And such stats was never provided by them.
I hope you are not blind? It's on the NBS education statistics. 2011 to 2018. What was denied was the one published in 2019/2020 because they didn't assign it the!selves. 2011-2018 are all on official gov websites.

You guys have started with all the rubbish waec stats again, waec has denied ever releasing any rankings, yet you shameless lots still go about the false rankings and ratings from blogs written by igbo propagandists.
Stop misconstruing what WAEC said. They archive these data by themselves every 3-4 years. They denied assigning positions to respective states, however, all the stats at least from 2016, 2017 and 2018 are available on government education official website. Are the ministry education lying too?

Osun and Oyo are competing with Northern states.

No candidate qualified for university admission from four Federal Government colleges in the 2015 West African Senior School Certificate Examination where Abia State topped the performance register, CHARLES ABAH writes

Details of the May/June 2015 West African Senior School Certificate Examination emerged on Thursday with states in the South-East, again, leading in the performance chart of candidates who obtained credits in at least five subjects, including English Language and Mathematics.

Abia State topped the chart with 33, 762 of its 52, 801 candidates.

This came as no candidate obtained five credits and above, including English and Mathematics from four Federal Government colleges.

The schools are the Federal Government Girls’ College, Bajoga, Gombe State; FGGC, Bauchi; FGGC Gboko, and the Federal Science and Technical College, Kafanchan.

To secure university admission in the country, a candidate must obtain credits in five subjects and above, including English Language and Mathematics.

Anambra State came second with 28, 379 out of 46, 385 candidates. While Abia State scored 63.94 per cent, Anambra got 61.18 per cent out of 100 per cent.



Edo State took the third position with 38, 052 of its 62, 327 candidates getting five credits and above. It had 61.05 per cent. Rivers and Imo states came fourth and fifth respectively.

In the 2014 May/June WASSCE rankings, Anambra State led the pack, while Abia State came second.

However, with 4.37 per cent, Yobe State came last on the 2015 rankings list with only 646 candidates obtaining five credits and above including English and Mathematics. Fourteen thousand, seven hundred and eight-four pupils, comprising 10, 807 males and 3,977 females, sat for the examination in the state.

Aside from Yobe State, seven other northern states occupied the rear positions in the rankings involving the 36 states and Abuja. They are Zamfara (36th), Jigawa (35th), Gombe (34th), Katsina (33rd), Kebbi (32nd) Bauchi (31st) and Sokoto (30th).

Lagos with 68, 173 out of 141, 963 candidates that sat for the examination placed sixth on the rankings. In fact, 32, 595 males and 35, 578 females obtained the required benchmark for university admission.

The statistics obtained exclusively by our correspondent on Thursday also revealed that Osun and Oyo states placed 29th and 26th respectively. While 8,801 candidates out of 48,818 obtained the basic entry requirement for university admission in Osun, Oyo State recorded only 21.03 per cent success in the examination.

Of the 78,896 candidates Oyo State presented, only 16,588 of them obtained five credits and above including English and Mathematics.



The breakdown, according to a WAEC source, is the consolidated results approved by the council following its National Examinations Committee meeting held in November.

One million five hundred and ninety thousand, two hundred and eighty-four candidates sat for the examination in which only 562, 413 candidates obtained credits in five subjects and above including English Language and Mathematics.

In other words, 1,029,871 representing 64.63 per cent failed to obtain admission requirement to the nation’s universities.

The former Head of National of the council, Mr. Charles Eguridu, announced the release of the results last August.

A further breakdown of the 2015 results, showed that the seventh, eighth, ninth and 10th positions went to Bayelsa, Delta, Enugu and Ebonyi states in that order.

Ekiti State placed 11th with 8,954 out of its 21, 333 candidates that sat for the examination getting the required admission benchmark.

Kaduna, Ondo, Abuja, Kogi, Benue, Akwa Ibom, and Kwara states came 12th, 13th, 14, 15th and 16th in that order.



Ogun State with 75,994 candidates occupied the 19th position. The state bagged 32.89 per cent with its 25, 006 candidates, comprising 12,059 males and 12, 947 females, obtaining five credits and above including English and Mathematics.

In the 20th, 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24th and 25 slots are Cross River, Taraba, Plateau, Nassarawa, Kano and Borno states in that order. While 15,903 candidates out of 62,511 obtained the benchmark in Kano, 5,347 out of 21,695 got the same results in Borno.

Niger and Adamawa states occupy the rankings list ahead of Osun State. They placed 27th and 28th. While Osun State recorded 18.03 per cent success, Niger and Adamawa states got 19.66 and 18.08 per cent respectively.

Meanwhile, in the performance register for the 104 Federal Government colleges in the same examination, the Federal Government Girls’ College, Benin, outshined the others with 230 of its 232 pupils getting the university admission yardstick.

The Federal Government Girls’ College, Kazaure, occupied the second slot with only two of its pupils also missing the benchmark. But while FGGC Benin, obtained 99.14 per cent, its Kazaure counterpart, got 98.10 per cent.

The breakdown showed that the Federal Government College, Rubochi, came third with its 146 candidates, comprising 94 males and 52 females, out of 156 that sat for the examination putting up good showings.

The Federal Government Academy, Suleja; FGC, Okigwe, and the FGC, Nise, came fourth, fifth and sixth.


From the Unity schools in Lagos, the FGC, Ijanikin, which occupied the seventh position in the rankings, emerged the best in the state with 357 out of its 387 candidates that sat for the examination obtaining the basic university entry requirement.

It came ahead of the over 100-year-old Kings College (18th), Federal Science and Technical College, Yaba (21st) and the Queens College (54th). While 361 out of 452 candidates obtained their papers at KC, 181 out of 413 females succeeded at QC.

Occupying the eighth, ninth, 10th, 11th and 12th positions are the FGC, Okposi; FGC, Ikole-Ekiti; FGGC Efon-Alaye; FGGC, Minjibir, and the FGC, Jos, in that order.

From the statistics, The PUNCH findings revealed that of the 74 candidates that sat for the examination at the FGGC, Bajoga, no one got the basic admission requirement.

It was the scenario at the FGGC, Bauchi and Gboko. Whereas 143 candidates sat for the examination in the Bauchi school, 144 females did the same at the FGGC, Gboko.

For the FSTC, Kafanchan, of the 40 candidates, comprising 29 males and 11 females that sat for the examination, no one also obtained the minimum entry requirements to the university.

Of the 26 Unity schools occupying the rear positions on the performance chart, 22 of them are located in the North. The other four colleges are the FGGC, Ikot Obio Itong, Ukam at 89th position; FGGC, Calabar (92nd); FSTC, Uyo (93rd) and the FGC, Idoani, Ondo State occupying the 96th position.



In the May/June 2014 WASSCE, 529,425 candidates, representing 31.28 per cent of the candidates, obtained the minimum university entry requirement. One million, six hundred and ninety-two thousand, four hundred and thirty-five candidates sat for the examination that year.

Over there in the SE it isso common that they lead in WAEC and JAMB that it is no longer news self. They are competing set by set which set will outdoor the other. They are not in competition with the rest o the nation.
however, SS states like Edo and Delta and Rivers (with significant Igbo/Igboid populations are doing great too.

I swear for the very first time in a long time, the powerful chiefs and houses are referencing the same snippets we uploaded from those historical books. referencing Alagbarinye from the Ibo hinterland as a founder etc. Making reference and doubting the legitimacy of Alagoa's history. etc: I was like wow, some of these were completely not talked about out of fear. Even fully acknowledging the prevalence and originality of Igbo as the language of the Islan and not the "language of slaves" as these post-war people have tried to institutionalise.

PoliticsRe: Finima(bonny) Crisis & The Burden Of Ijaw False Historical Revisionism by Ekealterego:
Nawao. This crisis still persists.

IYC/INC are part of the people fuelling the crisis. They are holding on to Finima so strongly as their only claim to owning Bonny. I pity the Grand Bonny (Igbo speaking Bonny) for singing and simping for the Ijaws for so long. Now, their throne is being threatened.
The IYC and INC have been trying all they could to eradicate the Igbo language for long, even physically threatening them to stop speaking the language. As this did not work, they have resorted to the cheap divide and rule tactics.

Asari himself is a confused and deceitful man. Asari the other day accepted fully that many parts of Okirika were Igbos. In fact, he said when he was little, the areas of Okirika he visited spoke Igbo exclusively as their native tongue. My point is, that he accepts the truth when he serves his agenda and denies it when it doesn't.

Ososo (Edo),
Warake (Edo),

Aduge (Kwara) etc.

A United Edoid Nation will be one of the richest not only in Nigeria but in Africa. Last year our Akalaka brothers from Rivers state visited Benin City & joined the Oba in celebrating the Igue festival. This move further strengthened the ties between the Benin kingdom & our Akalaka brothers.
Sounds reasonable. Although I don't know about Itshekiri. They sound more like Yoruba/Ilaje.

So, finally Sufferingboy/queenagbo will be speaking Edo as his native language.

Captain8 abi giftibo, you see Engenni and Epie are Edoid.

Asides four or five, questionable inclusions here and there, the rest look quite attainable.

I can only hope that you'll find a solution to whatever that's eating you up before you do the unthinkable !

To be very honest with you boy,I sincerely think you're clinically unstable and in need of an urgent medical attention. Of course,it can only be that insanity of the mind that makes you believe the world revolves around your primitive, cave dwelling and human flesh eating savages called eboe ! How could you ever claim to be superior to the tribe that sold your forefathers cowardly asses into the slavery ? I think you're deluded !

I'm honestly done with you boy and I must tell you that I was greatly entertained while your comedies lasted ! Yes,you were able to crack me up sometimes with some of your thoughtless follies. You can now crawl back into whatever hole you came out from and remain dumber than you're already there ! I leave you with the evidential document (here attached) of how the IJAWS SOLD YOUR FOREFATHERS INTO SLAVERY while I hope that you'll eventually find a way of dealing or living with it ! Attached also, is the rotten head of your father. It was reported that the remaining parts of his OSU body ended inside the cooking pots of your eboe folks as pepper soup !

Precisely, "620 choice young Eboes" sold by the Ijaws to the European slave merchants in a single transaction !

Did you people even attend any economics class at all? Do you know how the concept of poverty came about?

In as much as one might have a feeling of personal satisfaction.... Poverty as defined by economists or economist is not subjective but rather an objective calculation of fact.

There are multi-variable factors entered into figuring out this poverty thing. And yeah, adjustments are made for all these things you are talking about when we are calculating it.

Human beings evolved, the cave men could as well claim that they are not poor which is true in their own time, but this is 2022 and definition of things will evolve as civilisation and evolution occurs.

You Nigerians have a long way to go.
Illiterates
First and foremost, they are not talking about land owning (fertile), people with access to that land, producers into consideration when talking about those things. Another thing is evolution. People who were hunter gatherers living in the cave can't be considered poor in their time and generation, neither can we consider landowining subsistent farmers as "poor" if their land is productive.

As the world evolves, definition of subsistence, wealth, health also increases. 400 years ago, co2 pollution, HIV aids, vaccinations didn't exist. life expectancy in most places were lower.

The evolution of the modern word demands more purchasing power. As we evolve from cave men and hunter gatherer to nomadic animal keepers to subsistent farmers, definition of what is okay and what is not is adjusted and redefined.

Now, to you talk about poverty and 5 dollars. You must consider that economist do not mean 5 dollars as per raw 5 dollars, they are adjusted for PPP, purchasing power parity. If you consider the worth of your grandfather's produce against today's price in the city, maybe it might be more or less depending on how much he is producing.

All Bubu cares about are his Fulani brethren. He cares more for Gambia and Fulanis in Niger and Chad than he cares about any bagga in Zoogeria.

Mumu,I know you prefer to be addressed as one of the descendants of the slaves of the infamous Wedderburn brothers,,but the fact remains that the Ijaws sold your progenitors to them as slaves ! Over 600 of them in a single transaction; that's shameful boy ! A cursed,human flesh eating OSU like you with no enviable history;mere cannibal from that tiny enclave of criminals !

F.uck ya fada !
Low IQ bonobo bring forth your evidence.

This is another record from Johnston in the 1800s and Captain John Adams 1823.

Son of an unfortunate retard, bring forth your evidence.
Tell us how we were slaves to tribes we were superior to.

Lol ! Intelligent OSU,are you trying to rewrite the history or something ? Isn't it on records that the ijaws bought several thousands of Eboes and sold same as slaves ? You ain't even a smart revisionist;you're too dumb to be one kiddo ! I should show you in whatever book that the ijaws were your slave masters,right ? Lol ! You're even dumber than I assumed initially;the slowest of all slowpokes like you ! Mumu,so you would rather want us to believe that it was the likes of Wedderburn brothers that bought and brought the likes of Jaja of Opobo to Bonny as slaves,right ? Ka a da f'awon babanla e,omo Eboe olori pelebe !
This moronic low IQ scum. Bring evidence from 200 years from a book where Ijaws sold Igbos, if not, may you be retarded forever.

Bonny and Opobo are Igbo towns and speak Igbo till this day.

By the way, I don't have anything against Ijaws, I know you are trying to force another round.

Is it the same Ijaws that come to Aro in Abia state to worship and bow to the Aros? or which one?

I assume you are not very intelligent.

We come with receipts.

These are records from 120-400 years.

Bring your own (I know you do not have the intelligence to do that though)

I know intelligence is not something we can associate you with.

Show me clearly where the book you uploaded showed Ijaws?

Low IQ is a very serious and obviously, a hereditary disease as well.

When did the famous British business siblings Jo (John) and Ja (James) Wedderburn become Ijaws?

The domination of Yoruba artiste is simply a myth. The numbers prove otherwise. This stat was compiled by someone and it hit the front page.
Ckay got the highest stream of any African musician ever on Spotify. He holds the record for number 1 and Number 2 at 320 million and 280 million respectfully.
Yorubas are great at singing and art and they have talented artiste but Igbos hold their own as well with a plethora of artiste as well.

These Nigerian songs are currently in the top 10 list of all time. (I updated it based on a thread that made the headline a few weeks ago)

They said they aren't igbo
Who is they? Do you know where and who Asaba are? Do you know the language? what is the name of their king?

Asaba is not Ika, where there is Identity crisis. Asaba are Enuani people (People from Onitsha and Obosi etc) in Anambra state. They speak the same dialect, same people.
