Just like it was in the 60’s, Igbos have regained their rightful position in education and other areas..

It's becoming a normal standard in the south east for atlest a post basic education for all and a first degree for those who can afford it and does who have the intelligence capacity. Also thanks to the free education policies from some of the state government.

This is not correct people from sophisticated region should be leading

Fulani keh !? Abeg talk another thing. Like, you mean to tell me that Fulanis are more "literate" than the Igalas, Urobos, Efiks, etc?A huge joke...

I know how this thread go be...... I am out.

The 70%+ for the first tribe is too low.

We want every child, man and woman in anaigbo to be EDUCATED .

We should strive to make it 100% before 2030.

A task that must be done.

7 Hausa — 42.0% | 22.7%
8 Kanuri — 40.8% | 21.7%
9 Fulani — 26.2% | 13.8%

This is a tragedy capable of destroying us all.

What is the population of Edo tribe , abi is it Edo State

Plot it against religious subsidy rate in all regions.

Fulanis may not be exposed to western education, but they have been taught that Nigeria is their territory. They believe that Nigeria belongs to them. Even though they are not indigenous people of Nigeria. And they are politically more advanced than most graduates of political science through the Housa radio transmission.

Igbos leading in every Human Development Index.

On Ibibio women I totally agree with the stastic. If you have dealt with Ibibio women you will notice they are highly intelligent.

I did not see ikwerre hereooo

Literacy is the ability to speak and write in one language.

Someone who only understands Hausa, can write in Hausa but doesn't understand a word of English, is that person an illiterate?

out to where? Talk your own.

I thought they said Yorubas are the most educated?

The kind of propaganda we were fed by those traditional media in this country can only be judged in Heaven. They said Igbos are only selling spare parts at Ladipo.

They said Ekiti state has the highest number of Professors in Nigeria yet the record shows it is Imo state.

Stay there make pynt dey wear you, oga.
They are occupying government offices across the country and encouraging their people to go to school because getting job is not that difficult for them. They don't write recruitment test like you and I. If the inequality that exist in government establishments today is allowed to continues, fulanis would achieve their aim of subjugating the rest of Nigeria. It's gradual. They also have their footsoldiers in the name of bandits and what have you.
