The North needs to step up, there’s a lot more they can achieve if educated. I read somewhere El Rufai insinuating that the British deliberately came up with scheme to keep the North uneducated, it’s been more than 60yrs since the British left, what has the north been doing since then to correct that?

A southern dominated top, and a Northern dominated bottom

I wanted to be bothered, but I discovered that most northern governors/elders are more bothered with 2023 and RUGA

Ramanto:
WAEC is no longer an exam. You can easily google answers a few minutes to the exam and everything will pop up. I'm not trying to discredit the top performers, but the exam is a very poor yardstick for measuring excellence.
