It still doesn't translate to a prosperous Nigeria. Nigeria is a failed state.

God willing, we will close down the 2.3% gap in SE
Re: School Attendance By Geo Political Zone (Children 5-14 Years) by owobokiri(m): 12:54pm On Jan 22
As expected!
The surprise here is that it is not 100% with the South East, and I strongly feel that this needs to be investigated. Who and who are not sending their kids to school in the east? Such irresponsible parents should be identified, arrested, tried and jailed..
Keys thrown away!

That said, it must be pointed out that the South East region of the country that has been margunalised, ostracised and discriminated in the civil service, the army, the police, the banking sector, the oil sector, the telecommunications sector , etc, is still the only region that sacrifices everything for education.

You see thousands of graduates struggling without jobs in the Eastern part of the country, as federal government investments, projects and largesse are concentrated elsewhere. This should have been enough to demoralise the people, but alas, they're trouncing the favored ones in all fields apart from rampant kleptomania..

Is Jaah not wonderfull!?

South East una no try ooo, who are you guys leaving the less than 3% gap for? Close it joor!





My governor Abiodun are other South West governors rarely care about the education of our children, but we try sha at least we still pass Northerners.

That’s because in Nigeria the part not interested in education and sending their kids to school has cornered power and control at the centre and is ruling over the part that’s interested in education and sending their kids to school! Basically we’re confronted with a situation in which the tail is wagging the dog! Absurd, innit!?

What's the point of emphasis on schooling when there is no adequate space to practice the skills?
Re: School Attendance By Geo Political Zone (Children 5-14 Years) by Jamiubond009(m): 1:52pm On Jan 22
The south east should do more .100 percent or nothing

How is the South-East discriminated in the federal civil service?
Re: School Attendance By Geo Political Zone (Children 5-14 Years) by Tenses:
It's a big shame on SE that 2.3% of our children aged 5-14 don't attend school. We need to do more and make it 0% out of school children by 2030.
Re: School Attendance By Geo Political Zone (Children 5-14 Years) by ChiefOloye(m): 1:55pm On Jan 22
Igbos will applaud this as being accurate now, but let South West be No 1. on the list, like that of internally generated revenue data, they will dispute it and call it agbadorians or gbegiri data.
Re: School Attendance By Geo Political Zone (Children 5-14 Years) by TheStoriesOfMan: 1:55pm On Jan 22
This is a correct and up-to-date statistics. God bless you.

The SE will make number of ALL primary and secondary school attendance to be 100% before 2027.

God bless Funsho Williams
God bless Ayo Balogun
God bless Tor Tiv
God bless Akor Adams
God bless Rochas Okorocha.

Fake statistics without known source.
Of course gala and fsn yogo hawkers dey attend class inside ojota traffic and those learning how to retail adulterated drugs and fake Chinese chargers are learning physics and chemistry inside 4x4 cubicle shops.
Dey deceive your unborn generations
Re: School Attendance By Geo Political Zone (Children 5-14 Years) by MorataFC: 2:04pm On Jan 22
Let's see age 5 to 21

I hope those who are hailing the stats will not shout foul play when age 5 to 21 is out

Exactly true! Nigeria is far better than most African countries. Many of those complaining don’t travel. Travelling is education on its own.

Just this morning, employment rates in Africa was published here. They all rejected the good figures from Nigeria. Because it won’t serve Obi and Atiku election next year.

The figures for the North are even impressive . I thought they are way lower than that lipsrsealed lipsrsealed. We just need better leadership in Nigeria.

God bless only Nigerians that are egalitarian in belief, behaviour and practice.
Re: School Attendance By Geo Political Zone (Children 5-14 Years) by muykem: 2:16pm On Jan 22
I don't understand. You are giving percentage without figure. This is very wrong and misleading eg a region with 85% of 10m has done more than 90% of 2m.

Despite being educated, they keep electing lunatics as leaders.
Re: School Attendance By Geo Political Zone (Children 5-14 Years) by Image123(m): 2:18pm On Jan 22
Education that translates to control from Sokoto prisons and large scale tribal smallgotry is not worth it.
