Mbaise are doing well in education generally.

See below some women from Mbaise.
And no single professor in those photos.

We are tribalist in nature, here we are talking about Imo state, but you have to find a way to narrow it down to Mbaise nollywood stars

When u check it out on the graph, you'd see that this flunctuates across all states in diff years


And it “fluctuates” across states like Zamfara, Jigawa, Katsina, etc?

There are different ways to measure education. Most literate is one metric, and it measures the spread of basic education. The proportion of individuals with higher education is another way to measure it.

Now we may not have the stats but from observation, it seems reasonable to suggest that the Yorubas, and to some extent, the South Southerners, particularly of Edo and Delta, may be the leaders when it comes to higher education.

Oga, imo has it all , from basic education to professorship .
I have always known that IMO has the highest number of professors in Nigeria , nuc stated that.

What do some of you smoke ?

Literacy stats have nothing to do with higher education. A high rate of literacy means people are going to primary school and secondary school. How does that have any bearing on higher education, particularly up to the PhD level??

I don't doubt that Imo can have the highest number of professors, however I haven't seen data to support it, and in cany case, Imo is a state, not a region. We are talking about regions here. Please share the data though!

I smoke regular bush herbs, the Canada stuff and regular cigs. And Ghana herbs too, thanks for asking.
Re: Imo State Has Highest Literacy Rate In Nigeria by ziondaughter247: 6:24pm On Dec 27, 2023
This is a known fact .. Even from the number of jamb applicants yearly to the number of university admissions and NYSC lists, Imo ALWAYS has the highest number.
From my interaction so far, I dare say Imo people are the most enlightened set of Igbos I have come across. No doubt they have their flaws, but they are generally more enlightened, less loud than the average Igbo. It is the only state that I honestly would say have a mind of their own especially when it comes to politics. Less likely to be tribalistic and sentimental.!

There is nowhere in any of my posts where I said a PhD is a measure of literacy. My point has always been that literacy itself is one way to measure how educated a group of people are and another way to measure is to check how deep they tend to go with their education.

It's a question of width versus depth and I'm not saying either one is necessarily better either. Rather, I'm saying that education is a big picture and one piece of the puzzle, such as literacy alone, may not tell the whole story.

Igbos can be more literate because they go to primary and secondary school at a high rate, which I personally observed from my time in the east, but that alone is not enough to say Igbos are the most educated because education has several dimensions.

Bring admission stats.
Bring professorship and PhD stats

I use to say it to anambra people in Lagos, imolite are more educated, civilized and relate with other region compared to other southeast states.
you're talking rubbish. Imo is doing absolutely fine in education. We are very happy for that. They're our brothers. Don't come here and start spewing trash about what you told anambra people. If an enlightened man from Imo comes out to contest for presidency, you will still fight him, blackmail him and vote the directionless EBOLA.

So keep your observations to yourself.
