I can see Literacy rate by Ethnicity Yoruba (15-25 years ) Female is represented, while Male is not, meaning it's quite lower than Female. Well it's expected, because someone of them are at the bus-stop collecting money from motorist. AKA (owo-mi-da) meaning, where's my money ![]() |

franchasng:This is the right mentality. I laugh at Yoruba who attack Igbo businesses in the SW. Encourage investments in your region that will create jobs and opportunities. |

YourKarma:The literacy rate in the SW has declined due to the ineffectiveness of the SW political class. The good news is that the literacy rate in the SW remains over 80%, and a change in leadership can help address these failures. Well done SE/SS in keeping the literacy at the top. |

erad:They keep young people off the street, create jobs for lecturers and administrators and provide business for landlords, or you would rather they herd cattle like Fulani in the North. |

This is why I always say Ogun state lack visionary leaders. They have what it takes to complete with Lagos, highest number of universities, highest number of factories and industries etc, yet they are so backward. Have the poorest road network. |

Truths9ja: is anyone still in doubt that SW still maintains the one spot as the nation’s educational hub? Not just education, but economic hub and also every other sector of the economy what is Nigeria without this intelligent and sophisticated people btw proudly lagos |

Truths9ja:Yes but unfortunately is not transformed into practicals such as industrialisation and job creation,they are mainly for financial gains as well as profit making. Ekiti state has many professors probably the highest in number but visit the state you wil be shocked their their are no manufacturing industries because their theoretical background were never translated into practical. |

This is very good but please as we establish universities let's also build industries and businesses where all the products of these universities can be gainfully employed after graduation. |

YourKarma: sulaak:It is wrong to use percentages to analyze data and statistics... the SW has a higher population than the SE so when you use percentages the result will wrongly show the SE with a higher position. if imo state population is 5,400,000 then that = 5,400,000 * 96% = 5,184,000 literates lagos state population is 22,000,000 then that = 22,000,000 * 96% = 21,120,000 literates from the above, can you tell which state has a higher number of literate people ![]() from the same chart you are using even Oyo state has more literates than Imo that is in 1st position. Oyo state population is 8,540,000 then that = 8,540,000 * 80% = 6,832,000 literates |

The list is bull crap. I know several states with private universities that are not listed there. For example, the American University of Nigeria, Yola is in Adamawa state. University of Mkar in Benue state. Or is it Birnham university in Nassarawa state? |

codemaniacs:If the SW is getting it wrong, let's call it out and fix the problem. The situation is not as bad as the North's and can be easily reversed with the introduction of free universal education and primary health care. |

sulaak:The only thing that can stop SW is war or pandemic or over-pricing due to foreign countries building schools in SW and setting $10,000 per term .. the private education infrastructure that SW have built and own is plenty for the SW to get it wrong. every part of the SW cannot get it right at the same time... this is the mistake people are also making with Nigeria because they expect all parts of Nigeria to get it right together which is impossible.. the parts of SW that are getting it wrong should be called out while the parts of SW that are getting it right should keep on improving. |
