Clearly regions with higher population will logically have higher stats in cases like this. There is no reason a region with with a smaller pollution should have more dropouts. Although our brothers from the north should do better

There is no need for chest beating or name calling
See one of the dropouts.

The southeast they love to hate keeps growing in powers, funny enough, it's the north that would still get most federal government jobs and political appointments.
Which federal job. How much is their salary ?
We know where to collect the money.

Business is the king!
Moreover the other lgbos and earning fat overseas.

If you read the book on the history of Education in Nigeria by Prof Babatunde Fafunwa. The igbos(Eastern region) overtook the Western region in education from 1937, this made Awolowo introduce free education in 1955, because there was a high number of igbos in the colonial civil service due to their basic level of education. The igbos lost a generation of educated intelligentsia during the civil war
Gladly they are fast returning back to what it used to be.
Nigeria is suffering for the pains the cause lgbos.

So, you can see I know what I asked initially.

Have a nice day.
You did?

You asked about enrollment rate, which is a measure of how many children enrolled vs the total population of students who are age eligible to enroll

That’s a different statistic that doesn’t determine or isn’t determined by the dropout rate

This is not acceptable to the South East please, that stat needs to be reduced to a single digit at least...
ebonyi state will contribute 2.5% of the 3%<they need to work more harder on getting children to school,they are really trying no doubt,in my place in imo state it is a taboo not to send your children to school

How is enrollment rate not relevant?

The data presented indicates that more children in the North enroll or start primary school in the South. That alone is a very relevant information because the impression had always been that the north had the highest out of school children in Nigeria.

Sometimes, you need to look deeper than surface statistics.

Southeast with the lowest school dropout is where they want Obi to build more schools. To knowledgeable person, they will see that there is no issue of shortages of school here. What can be done and what Obi did mostly is maintaining, upgrading and expanding the already available schools.

APC and Agbado people with their mouthpiece Reno mockery are dullards
Akwamkpuruamu:
Percentage brings everything to par. Stop reasoning like a neanderthal
YOU guys should be calming down, every day shouldn't be a dick measuring contest with the other regions. SW ain't in competition with anyone, so don't get pushed around by your insecurity. And moreover, if the quality of education down EAST is the one you're displaying here as you can't juxtapose and analyse figures acurately, then the SE education standard sucks and should rank with the Northerners'.




Augustenite:
Oga, no be so. Check the population from this zones to the ratings. Southeast is the list populated among this region. So, stop judging base on this statistics.
THANKS. Maths ain't their forte.

johnjose68:
In real number terms, more children are in school in every other region than the i.pob land!!!

The i.pob land has the least population and thus will record the least out of school children too.
Though I do not subscribe to your choice of ethnic identification, what you have said is correct which some of them choose to ignore.

It shows the East has less children going to school.

I have not measured anything against any region. Agbado and APC do not represent Yoruba. So please watch the people you join me with.
One observation I want to point out to you though is that southeast that u say their education sucks rank high in national exams and literary competitions despite their relative small numbers.
Or is it that it’s u that can process information well?

Be a little intelligent, that’s why it was represented in percentage ie in response to the population of each zone. You get it.
Re: Primary School Dropout Rate Across Geopolitical Zones (pic) by StreetFight: 8:43pm On Jun 08, 2024
The 8% in the South West is made up of 60% Igbos and 35% Hausa/Fulani

The northern part, understandable but south west? Awolowo must be disappointed.
Yes, very disappointed that Igbos dropped out of Primary School in their villages and jumped into Mallam Audu's trailer carrying Cows from Bornu through Igboland to Yoruba land to come and sell Gala and La Casera inside holdups without enrolling in school

Lol how many Igbos remain for Igbo land??

By the way, no be who start primary school dey drop out? I've been to the East and I was shocked to realise that many don't even have primary school education at all.
Comforting your self, the earlier you realized that it is God that created people above you, the better you submit to the igbos. You may pretend or deceive yourself about all this statistics but this people called Igbo are growing stronger and stronger. Man pass man, dot pass empty circle as Israel pass Palestine and her neighbors

you are totally wrong. From your population stats, SW is twice the population of SE but in dropout rate 45k SE should have been equivalent to 90k of SW but we have SW almost 200k showing that SW dropout rate is more than 4x that of SE instead of 2x as suppose to be joust only 90. Sw needs to work 4 times harder to catch up wit SE

OF course, I know of magic centres and how those had helped many gained scores as high as possible. It shouldn't be a yardstick for measuring level of intelligent in today's Nigeria. And oh, yes! i questioned the quality of education you guys have down there after the wrong display of superiority, accusing the people obviously better than you guys of FAILURE over statistic that show them as the best of the lot. Point is, how then do you get those grades? Well, anything can be structured to favour anyone, including competition and screenings, then all your grades ain't worth nothing if you can't defend it.
Re: Primary School Dropout Rate Across Geopolitical Zones (pic) by InyinyaAgbaOku(m): 9:40pm On Jun 08, 2024
ivandragon:
Since the dropout rate for the north east as shown in the analysis is 1.14m or 51%, it stands to reason then that the ENROLMENT figure was about 2.29m (out of which 1.14m dropped out)

So, if the dropout rate for the SE is 45.7k or 3%, it stands to reason that the ENROLMENT figure was around 1.5+m...

Given that, it means more children enrolled or started primary school in the North East than the SE...

Do you now get my point?
in relation to population, dullar.d.
Statistics use proportions not figures

You are a tribalist just throwing things around. U have your opinion and I have mine. How do we get the truth? By looking at available data and stats. We must trust something in this world or there will be anarchy and chaos. Don’t trust my opinions and I won’t trust yours, however, the National stats indicate this people from the southeast are at the forefront of education NOW. That’s what we can trust. We can also trust UNICEF.
Your opinion and mine are shit

I hope I have lectured u this night

Your cry never started. Should you not be ashamed that people that didn't go to school are into import and export business and you that is educated is busy looking for N30,000 job. Travel and explore South East, you say no. Haba!

Look at this imbecilitic entity.

If you had an iota of sense, you would have understood my simple question asking if the North had higher enrollment of students into primary schools than the South.

It was a simple question, but dumb 1d10ts like you always have to turn it into stup1d arguments.
