Yea but having statistical result resolves this. Anybody can come up with this and would be biased
just be informed that qualitative analysis based on known methods such as expert opinion, survey and Delphi methods are always liable to biases. But to an extent, it can also give a clue about what's been studied and observed. Even quantitative analysis in statistics are prone to biases since they are done by humans. A particular statistician can inflate the figures for political reasons.

Datazone:



Your write-up is trash if it was actually written in this order (that is, from most educated to least educated). I am from Delta and I can talk about Deltans. Based on ratio (that is, number of literates vs total population), the Ijaws are the least educated whereas, Itsekiris are the most educated. In case you don't know, Itsekiri is notable for producing Nigeria's first graduate and ultimately, West Africa's. HRM Olu Antonio Dom Domingos, that's why there is a school in Warri called Dom Domingos. Also, Itsekiris were the first to establish contact with White men. Get your facts right.
I presume you didn't read the bottom line. I didn't write this, I only shared the information. Talking about the ijaws, always remember that delta state ijaw is just a fraction n constitute less than 20% of the ijaw population. To tell u that Hausas are more educated than the ijaws alone should make it clear to your understanding that the analysis is not based on per percentage of the tribe's population. Talking about Dom Domingo's school, that predates our existence. But for a fact, I was a student of COE warri at Edjeba, and usually goes there(Dom Domingo) to play ball.

so as an ijaw man do u believe that yorubas are more educated in % than igbos?
I don't have the statistics to defend any position.

What u have here is just a qualitative analysis that may not reflect the true situation of things.

I was expecting my Ijaw to be nothing lower than 4th in the rating.


If it's by per percentage of population, Hausa won't have been anywhere near us.

Education / 10 Most Educated Tribes In Nigeria by Henryjr(m): 9:29am On Nov 23, 2018
With over 370 tribes in Nigeria, it is hard to judge which community has the biggest number of educated people. The government does not count and report such statistics. Still, it is so interesting to know what is the most educated tribe in Nigeria, isn’t it?


Educated tribes in Nigeria

We have created a list that doesn’t have a specific order. These are just 10 tribes that come from all over Nigeria. Once again, this is just our ideas and we hope that our readers can offer their own views regarding the most educated state in Nigeria and the most educated people.

Igbo

This community is one of the biggest in Nigeria. There are many farmers and traders among Igbo people. It is believed that this tribe is very educated. By the way, many representatives of this tribe love to gain new knowledge, self-develop and implement creative business ideas into life.

Yes, Igbos have many businesspersons among them. There are even sayings that there is nothing good in places where you don’t meet Igbo businessmen.


Yoruba

This tribe is also one of the biggest in the country. Many of its representatives get high job positions, become professors, and reach other educational heights.

Yoruba people often become top managers and lead the companies.

Hausa

This ethnic group is also one of the largest in Nigeria along with Yoruba and Igbo. This community prefers the life in villages and small towns as well as rural areas.

Hausa who live in big cities are educated. They like to explore new spheres and they are good at planning. Many representatives of this tribe are good entrepreneurs.

Those members who live in rural territories get a lower level of education. Most of these people cannot read or write and have to work in agriculture or stay unemployed.


Urhobo

The tribe mostly lives in the Niger Delta area. Just like many other modern communities, Urhobo people follow the trend and gain their education. Many families have their own professors.

Edo

These people like to migrate. They often go overseas searching for better life. Being highly civilized, they also get a good level of education.



Ijaw

This Nigerian tribe has many educated people. This is why we have added it to our list of the citizens who are schooled and continue to get knowledge, self-improve, and develop throughout their lives.

Itsekiri

The community lives in the same areas as Urhobo people. Representatives from Itsekiri tribe also do their best to get an education. If the family leader is not educated, he makes sure his kids would gain the knowledge in different spheres of life.

Isoko

This tribe doesn’t have as many people as other majority communities from Nigeria. Still, it is known that the representatives of Isoko community do get an education and deserve their place on our list.


Calabar

Many of us like the interesting intonation you can hear when a Calabar person speaks. This tribe is educated. You can watch Nollywood movies to understand this.

Ibibio

Is this tribe schooled? Like many other communities, Ibibios also get their education and many of the members know a lot.

Many individuals of hundreds of Nigerian tribes do get an education too This includes the Nupe people, Ndoro, Igalla, Jaku, Kamo, and many other communities we haven’t listed.

Politics / Jonathan Says, Buhari Disgraced Nigeria While Trying To Discredit Him by Henryjr(m): 8:51am On Nov 23, 2018
‘BUHARI DISGRACED NIGERIA WHILE TRYING TO DISCREDIT ME' - JONATHAN


Jonathan said that Buhari failed to realise that foreign investors take the utterances of governments seriously.
‘Buhari disgraced Nigeria while trying to discredit me' - Jonathan
Jonathan hands over to Buhari (Presidency)
Former President Goodluck Jonathan has accused President Buhari of chasing investors out of the country.
According to Punch, the former President said the President’s media trials worsened Nigeria’s corruption index.

Jonathan said this in his book, My Transition Hours which he launched on Tuesday, November 20, 2018.



He said “You should never try to slander your political opponent by destroying your country’s economy. Capital flight intensified and companies started laying off staff. In all this, I hope a lesson will be learned. If you embark on digging a hole for your enemy, you better make it shallow because you might end up in the hole yourself.

“How do you attract investors you already repelled through your utterances? Investors are an ultrasensitive lot. Money runs away from unstable societies.”

Jonathan said that Buhari failed to realise that foreign investors take the utterances of governments seriously.

Adding that “The sundry accusations by the new administration will appear to have baited the media. Media trials are entertaining but have little or no effect in fighting corruption and improving the economy.

“Since I left office, rather than improve on our TI corruption perception record, the situation has worsened with the nation going 12 places backward, becoming number 148 according to the latest CPI ranking for 2014, from 136 in 2014 when I was President.



“It was bad enough that Boko Haram insurgency continued killing people and ruining businesses but what is worse is when politicians downgrade the economy by de-marketing the country internationally.”

Goodluck Jonathan lost to the candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC), Muhammadu Buhari in the 2015 election

Sometimes, people sit one place and blame devil for all their woes. Just like my friend, he complains almost about everything. We all know that luck exists, but smart work is a choice.....

Career / Unbelievable Habits Of Successful People by Henryjr(m): 6:17am On Nov 23, 2018
Discover some of the morning routines that set accomplished people apart from others.

What separates successful people from the unsuccessful ones (Getty Images)
Apart from their net worth, drive, there is one major thing that separates successful people from the not as successful ones.
This thing is called routine, the morning habits. Here are some of the morning routines that set the following people up for success:

Aliko Dangote
Africa's richest man wakes up at a particular time every day. According to the 2017 KPMG CEO Outlook, the president of the Dangote Group rises before 5:30 a.m., does his prayers before going on a 10 kilometres run.


Once this is over, he gets to the office by 8:30 a.m. where he does his job which he describes as a hobby. "I don't really take my job as something I have to do, it is my hobby," were his words.

Dangote expresses interest to add Kenya cement firm, ARM, to his conglomerate

He shed more light on his morning routine in a 2012 lecture at the Lagos Business School, according to How We Made It Africa.


Dangote said his work days start around 5 am, adding that he tries to get a 6 am haircut if needed. This is followed with some exercise which he notes helps prevent stress.

He said, "Exercise is better than any medicine I can take. Exercise and sleep."

Quinton van der Burgh
He is a South African billionaire and philanthropist whose day begins at 5:30 am. He tells Genuine, a men's lifestyle magazine, what comes next.

"I usually wake up at about 5:30 am, spend the next hour and a half auctioning(setting up) my day and respond to some messages. I then head off to gym," he said.

Quinton van der Burgh went from selling phones out of the boot of his car to making billions

Burgh stresses the importance of morning routines saying, "Wherever I am, it's the same routine day in and day out. Travel should by no way deflect you from your personal priorities. If I wasn't able to follow my routine It wouldn't be a productive day for me.

"Having a routine has been instrumental to my success. Even as a young man, it helped me to manage my time and effectively prioritize what was most important in life. As I said before, if you look at the most successful people in the world, routines play a part in every one of their lives. Whether its what they wear, what they eat, what products they use. They've all found what works and helps them be successful."


Barack Obama
The former president of the United States of America's day starts with a workout at 6:45 a.m. This is followed by newspapers, breakfast with his family before he begins his work day just before 9:00 a.m.

Obama chatted with Clinton prior to the Roman Catholic Funeral Mass for Senator Edward Kennedy at Our Lady of Perpetual Hope Basilica in Boston, August, 2009.

Oprah Winfrey
Inc reports that the TV mogul starts her morning with twenty minutes of meditation. This fills her with "hope, a sense of contentment and deep joy."

Mediation is followed by at least fifteen minutes of exercise to boost her energy level and productivity. Winfrey then "tunes herself in" by going for a walk or listening to music.

Oprah Winfrey grew up in poverty and started off her career by becoming the first African American TV correspondent in Nashville.

Her morning routine ends with her eating a healthy meal full of complex carbohydrates, fibre and protein.



Sir Richard Branson
The Virgin Group founder shared his morning routine in a 2014 blog post.

He says he wakes up at 5 a.m. every day explaining that "Getting up and at it early gives me time to get on top of things and chart my day effectively."

Richard Branson had already started the Virgin Records record label.

Branson also eats breakfast with his family writing, "Not only does this help them know how important they are to me, but it also grounds me before I start my day."

How you start your day can either set you up for success or failure, the choice is yours.

Politics / Goodluck Jonathan: I Never Said Stealing Is Not Corruption.... by Henryjr(m): 12:34pm On Nov 22, 2018
I never said stealing is not corruption, a person can steal and not be corrupt - GEJ

“Corruption does not fully capture the act of stealing. A person can indeed be corrupt without stealing a dime. Those who are incapable of comprehending this elevated thought and the mischievous crowd go about claiming till date that I said stealing is not corruption.”

“Let me categorically state that I never said stealing is good and that people should steal, neither did the CJN. Stealing is stealing and instead of calling it corruption, let us call the thief by his proper name and not use a blanket word like corruption. Corruption encompasses many things.

“If a government minister upon a cabinet dissolution takes a vehicle that he is not entitled to and converts it to personal use, then that is stealing. We must not lump everything together to say stealing is corruption"

Excerpts from page 45 of his book
