I don’t understand something. The statistics said literacy in any language, does it also mean almost 55%+ of their population cannot even read or write in Hausa too?

I do not believe that is possible for such huge numbers. If that is the case, then their matter is beyond redemption.

How was this survey conducted?
Re: Literacy Rate In Nigeria By Region For 2023 by LastGiantAlive: 9:00pm On Nov 21, 2024
Since APC came to power, NBS is now officially the propaganda mill of the demo nic party. Most Ibadan domiciled muslims have nothing to do with education. Sophisticated stark illiterates that queued up under the hot sun for hours to vote a microphone licking braindead cow are anything but literate.

Okay.

So all these Igbos that dropped out of Primary school in their villages and jumped into Mallam’s trailer carrying tomatoes to Yoruba jabs to come and slave, are they also counted as part of Sourh West out of school children?

Re: Literacy Rate In Nigeria By Region For 2023 by ElevationD: 9:43pm On Nov 21, 2024
Very incorrect.
How did they arrive at the figures quoted please? Bear in mind that Nigeria has a literacy level below 65%.

Re: Literacy Rate In Nigeria By Region For 2023 by Hemanwel(m): 9:43pm On Nov 21, 2024
The south-south has always been known for high literacy rate since time immemorial. They are the real sophisticated region.

Chai! See Awolowo's legacy now playing a catch up with the oyel people.

Awolowo must be wailing in his grave now.

Re: Literacy Rate In Nigeria By Region For 2023 by deji17: 9:44pm On Nov 21, 2024
South East always dragging last position with North East. Those 2 regions should get a room together and let the rest of Nigeria lives in peace.

Legendhero.... MR. STATISENSE Ambassador.

So SS is First...
SW is Second
SE is Third...


The tribe with the highest concentration in regions 1 and 2 are IGBOs. Add that to the SE and see the real dominant Tribe when it comes to education.

Before you post Propaganda, THINK IT THROUGH. Don't be in a rush to expose your shallowness.


E shock you abi...

I saw Hausa children not going to school at this present age, children of 6 to 10 years, none of them have ever been to school, and free govt school is just behind their house.

[quote author=LegendHero post=132978240][/quote]Yoruba are drastically changing everything to favour them now, Tinubu and his lieutenants will not remain there forever, oluwale group should enjoy now, soon watch out how they will soon change states GDP to favour them, fact propaganda doesn't built society while others are putting up infrastructure they spend so much time dishing out propaganda 🤣🤣

The SE has dominated the stats for a long time that it was becoming status quo, make we take small break for others to shine.

Th slight drop of the SE is the effect of the sit at home and other insecurities caused by that bastard in Finland and his terrorist minions...it's even impressive the SE is in third place (all things considered). But slowly and surely I'm glad the recompense of their destructive deeds is now catching up with them, starting from Ekpa who has been nabbed like the common criminal and terrorist that he is.

Note that there are millions of Igbos doing well academically in the SW (especially Lagos etc) and the South South where there are ethnically Igbo speaking areas (whether they choose to identify ad Igbos or not).

It amazes me that no one seems to ask where this group get their data from and the quality of the data before forwarding it to frontpage. Certainly, most of what they post is dodgy.

I hope folks know anyone can create a page on X, call it 'StatFacts' and start reeling out whatever they like. Even an AI bot (non human) can be set up to do this.
