How many years are they ?please list them?

Iroyin Yoruba...more than 150 years.
Alabukun.....more than 100 years.
Tribune....Almost 90 years
Etc.

blueAgent:
Abeg give examples?

Iroyin Yoruba,Alabukun,Tribune,Wema bank,Odua investment etc.

tegrianonigltd:
Read na, research, he restructured the education system and it worked, gave them to the owners, worked on them, and today Anambra is an educational hub.

Stop stressing yourself with these delusions.
If he built any school,he would have commissioned it like he did for Hero Beer.
He handed 5 billion to them for embezzlement including himself using proxy,I suppose.

Kobojunkie:
If you think he is wrong, provide a meaningful counter. I am interested in learning the facts here.

Igbos always say that they lead in WAEC for about a decade now which is a lie taken from their Ipob stats that did not emanate from WAEC.
WAEC is international.They had never ranked states.

franchasofficia:
Yorubas are not so good in managing the economy. They are good in certain areas such as legal matters, activism, musical arts, etc but not in trade and economic matters. Igbos are the best in trade and economic matters. If Nigeria wants to maximize it's potentials, then they must study each tribe and group and focus on exploiting the best in them.


Obasanjo and Goodluck's regimes flourished economically because they made Igbo technocrats the pillars of their regimes' economic team and policy formations.

lol
Ignorance at its peak.
Yorubas have businesses that are more than 100,90,80 years and still existing and counting.
Igbos do not even have a single business that is up to 35 years because they always crumble them with laziness and incompetence.


Yorubas have multibillion dollars businesses abroad.Igbos have none.
They are not business savvy as the Yorubas.

There are many other examples and this is why Nigerians readily support Yorubas everytime if a genuine and capable leader is sought.

Kobojunkie:
Question: how did you folks arrive at this claim?

lol
Please ask them o

Brendaniel:
Who?

Obi or what else did he do in Education?
Or is it by owing teachers and shutting the schools down for months?

Brendaniel:
There is nothing in the screenshot you posted to back up your claim, sorry ehn! try again later....

He hung his argument on being better in WAEC which. WAEC has debunked

tegrianonigltd:
This same Obi? Who handed money through out his tenure to rebuilding of schools? He gave the owners of build, improved the education sector. Una political lies sha. Jonathan build enough, he was insulted, he was humiliated, his wife too. Is building of school ever it. It’s politics of hate, and ignorance.

Just to embezzle 5 billion naira.
They always start humongous project and afterwards, leave the project
Did he build any school?
No,such an ....... head.

Brendaniel:
And Goodluck Jonathan that built schools all over the north for Almajiri's, what did the north and the south west championed by the very Tinubu Reno is supporting use to pay him back?

They kicked him out, this tells you that all these attacks are just out of hatred, secondly if after all what Peter Obi did in education(whether he built schools or not) for Anambra and Anambra became the leading state in education then what is now the justification for someone who built more schools only for the state to end up retrogressing in education.

It means one was doing something right and the other was doing something wrong, it is in Nigeria I know governments to show infrastructures that does not add value to the people as an achievement....

What matters most is, did education improve under Peter Obi better than Tinubu in both states?

If the answer is yes, then Peter Obi out performed Tinubu in education, even if Tinubu built 200 schools, if the 200 schools did not improve the educational performance in the state like someone who did not even build 1 school in his own state but achieved more educational performance, what then did the 200 additionally built schools achieve over the one who did not add any?

These are some of the reasons we have projects in Nigeria that are yet to achieve any major positive development in the country..

That's why I keep using the statement that says, when some governments major on the minor and minor on the major and achieve little or nothing with very huge costs

Anambra further retrogressed in Education during that time until date.
There has never been a time Anambra bettered Lagos in Education.
Your lies have been busted by WAEC.

Antivirus92:
They have....
They have.....
They have....


No proof, just empty claims.
Waec didn't confirm that they are fake.
These stats come out every year after each waec examination. Neco and jamb also release theirs.

But I know that u need to be happy. News like this breaks u down and makes u Moody.
It's good , create your own happiness

lol

Yorubas don't do fakeys.
They are realists.


Here is a list of the youngest PhD holders in Nigeria.
The oldest is just 26.

1. Dr. Olabisi Adeyemi, 26



This young intellectual earned her PhD in Botany from the University of Lagos. Though she had maintained a track record of academic success right from her secondary school, she acknowledged that having a PhD at her age, and the record of being the best graduating PhD student, did not come easy.

south east students being best in jamb, waec and neco are all handwork of Obi.
How much more delusional could you be?
Are you also going to deny that south east has been producing best students in all these examinations for donkey years now?
Quit whinning my friend, it will do u no good

Nobody will believe fake statistics now.
WAEC has confirmed they are all fake.
Do you believe in fake things?
Why I have my reservation is because,it is still the Yorubas that are shining in reality.

They have more than 5 youngest PhD holders in the world.
Igbos have none
They have more than 6 geniuses who scored perfect 5.0 cgp in the worlf.
Igbos have none.
They have 3 times the professors Igbos have.
They have highest number of lawyers,doctors,Engineers etc.

You still want me to believe in the fake WAEC data that were probably produced in your bedroom?

grandstar:
The true value of the Naira sits between 1,300-1,400 based on present fundamentals. Anything stronger will harm the economy. It seems Tinubu is more perturbed about a loss of face over a dwindling Naira than accepting reality.

The nation needs to reinvent it. The dependence on crude oil sales for the bulk of the countryš forex is a scourge and needs to end.

The focus now should be an "export or perish" mantra. The desperate clinging to a strong Naira policy will adversely affect exports growth.

The government's goal should be to triple exports within 10 years, the majority being non-oil.

It can only achieve this by deregulating the price of petrol which will induce massive investment into the downstream sector of the economy which has for long suffered a dearth of investment due to the subsidizing of fuel.

Next, should be the deregulation of electricity prices. Let's Discos charge cost reflective tariffs, so huge investments will flood into power generation and distribution to ensure ample power supply for new factories and businesses popping up.

Next should be the lowering of companies tax to less than 20%. Low corporate taxes have positive transformative economic as they lead to a surge in investments, both foreign and local boosting economic growth to the heavens. It's what many Central European countries in the EU have long implemented and with superb results.

More reforms are needed but this should be a start.

Naira will appreciate drastically soon.
Things will get cheaper when it does.
We want two digits not three for succour to come to the downtrodden.

RealTrump:
Saudi also defined their currency but unlike you, their reserve is $1.5T. According to nairametrics, CBN is burned $2B in approximately 1 month, in how many weeks will we finish a paltry reserve of $32B?

Mind you, they have collected plenty debt against that reserve, they still collected $2B days ago.

Sadly for your type, Propaganda can't be used to bring down the dollar.

lol
Is nairametrics CBN?
The reserve went down because of FX backlogs including airline backlogs settled.
Abi the about $12 billion obligation paid were taken from nairametrics yansh?
Cardoso had already debunked the lie.

I remember that Obasanjo left 65 billion dollars but Jonathan left 30 billion dollars for Buhari,What did they defend with $35 billion of Nigerian reserve even with the gigantic,humongous FX Nigeria was making.

My joy is a couple of things are getting cheaper.
I was surprise to hear yesterday that a derica of rice..maybe Nigerian...that was selling for #1200 now sells for #900.
Nobody told me,I saw it myself at Mile 12.

1 kg of gas was sold at Ogudu for #1200 yesterday.
Diesel price has gone down exponentially.
It will trickle down and enemies of Nigeria and the people will be shamed.
This is what the masses need.

If it is not fake,then well beaten.
Nodody takes all.
You win some,you lose some.
But when it is fake,which has always been 90%
of the claims of SE people,then there is cause for alarm.
For WAEC,the institution has continually said that they have never ranked states because they are international.
This ranking may have been funded by some of SE politicians to gain a cheap political point.
It could even be Obi because he claimed that Anambra came to be better and topping in WAEC due to his good work in Education.
He was alluding to the fake statistics from Ipob bureau of statistics.

lol
Fake people.
Fake news.
Fake data.
Fake millionaires.
Fake projects
Don't know why dem no dey shame.

It could be another fake Ipob data just like the fake WAEC data.
If it is not from JAMB,it should be disregarded.

Data from where?
Fake Ipob data.

SE and fraud are like 1&2.

According to the NUC website which can be accessed seamlessly by any interested researcher,there is now a shift and a takeover by the Northerners as the Igbos are pushed off the sidewalk of Professorship into the 3rd position in the rank of who has the higher number of Professors between the two educational gladiators.

SW still continues to be the stallion and champion of Education in Nigeria as the number of their Professors is almost triple that of the Igbos according to the Directory of full Professors in Nigerian Universities.

All authentic stats show Yorubas to be leading.

Look at graphs and data the trend has been there for years

Yes,it has all been fake being pushed out by some fraudulent Igbos.
WAEC is not only a Nigerian institution and it wouldn't rate one nation's state and leave the others.
Igbos always like to cut corners fraudulently.

NEWSWAEC disowns report rating Abia best in WASSCEPublished on October 12, 2023By Francis Ugwu


The West African Examinations Council, WAEC, has disassociated itself from a publication which claimed that Abia State was rated as the best-performing State in the 2023 West African Senior School Certificate Examination, WASSCE, for school candidates in Nigeria.


This was contained in a disclaimer issued on Thursday by the Council’s Public Affairs Department signed by Moyosola Adesina, Ag. Head Public Affairs, saying the claim was far from the truth.

WAEC further warned that any media circulating the wrong information should be disregarded.


According to the statement, mischievous platforms, which feed on controversies, were trying unsuccessfully to drag the Council into the political arena and bring its good name to disrepute.

The statement read: “The attention of the West African Examinations Council has been drawn to a social media post stating that Abia State, has been rated as the best-performing State in the WASSCE for School Candidates, 2023, in Nigeria.

“This is far from the truth. The Council completely and totally disassociates itself from the publication.


“For the avoidance of doubt, The West African Examinations Council DOES NOT RANK the PERFORMANCE of States in its examination. This we have always stated.

“Thus, any media circulating this wrong information should be disregarded. They are mischievous platforms that trend on controversies, and their intention is purely political. They are trying unsuccessfully to drag the Council into the political arena and bring its good name to disrepute with the intention to cause disharmony among the states competing for superiority!

“Furthermore, the Council has not decided on the best candidate(s) for WASSCE for School Candidates, 2023. Any report to the contrary should be disregarded.

education is not about passing waec.
If two people goes to one, and one graduates with first class and the other with third class.
10yrs later, the first class is now working in a company owned and managed by the third class graduate. Who would u say is more educated?
Personally I think the igbos and Yorubas are the most educated in Nigeria

True but Yorubas are more educated.
This is the reason Igbos including their leaders who could have been the ones arranging and pushing all these fake stats(as they say for almost a decade now) to show that they are leading.
With all their free for all fraud in WAEC,Yorubas still lead.
Igbos are just lazy and incompetent,reason they process fake stats just to claim to have caught up with the ever progressive Yorubas.

All the 5 SE states are in the top 10.

States with heavy indigenous Igbo population are in the top 10 i.e Rivers, Delta

State with heavy Igbo migrant population is in the top 10 i.e Lagos

It will take a million years before you can come close to Yorubas in Education.
Continue with your Aba Umuahia Fake stats.
Since the inception of WAEC, WAEC has never,never ranked states because they are international.
It is Igbos usual Ipob made stats they usual use to cover their laziness and incompetence.
Yorubas still lead in Education.
Fake stats in the mud

Take care of the smaller platforms too.

Nigeria is projected to slip to the fourth largest
economy in Africa in 2024, behind South Africa,
Egypt, and Algeria, according to IMF forecasts
for April 2024.
Nigeria which has held the title of “Africa’s
largest economy” since the GDP rebasing in
2013 is projected to have a total GDP of $253
billion in 2024, primarily due to the devaluation
of the Naira.
According to IMF forecasts, South Africa will be
Africa’s largest economy with a GDP of $373
billion, followed by Egypt with $348 billion, and
Algeria with $267 billion.
Recall that in 2023, it was projected that South
Africa will overtake Nigeria as the largest
economy in Africa.

Based on IMF’s estimates, Nigeria’s GDP in US
Dollars declined from $477 billion in 2022, to
$375 billion in 2023, it is estimated to drop to
$253 billion in 2024.

However, in the Naira, the
GDP improved from N202.4 trillion in 2022 to
N234.4 trillion in 2023. For 2024, the GDP is
projected to hit N296.4 trillion.
Recommended reading: IMF sees Nigeria’s
inflation dropping to 26.3% this year
What you should know
According to IMF data, Nigeria was the largest
economy in Africa in 2022, however, a
devaluation of the Naira caused Nigeria to drop
to third place in 2023, behind Egypt with a GDP
of $394 billion and South Africa with a GDP of
$378 billion.
In 2024, the devaluation of the Nigerian Naira
and the Egyptian Pounds will see Nigeria and
Egypt’s fortunes decline, with South Africa
taking the reins as Africa’s largest economy.
Since President Bola Tinubu took over as
President in 2023, the official exchange rate of
the Nigerian Naira has plunged by over 55%,
leaving a significant dent in the GDP
computation of the country. Meanwhile, in
Egypt, economic reforms since March 2024
have caused the Egyptian Pounds to decline by
almost 40% in just over a month. In South
Africa, the Rand has devalued by a slim 4% in
2024.
IMF estimates that Nigeria’s GDP will grow by
3.34% in 2024, up from the 2.86% growth rate
posted in 2023. South Africa’s GDP is estimated
to grow by 0.9% in 2024, from 2023’s 0.6%
GDP growth rate.
Egypt’s GDP is projected to grow at 3.0% in
2024, a decline from its 2023’s GDP growth rate
of 3.76.

Buhari initially had either a Fulani or Yoruba olodo going for the job. But when his fellow terrorists whispered to him that this was not an agbado-level exercise, he had no option but to drag out an Igbo person, in the person of Ngozi okonjo Iweala to go for the job.
He knew no Yoruba or Fulani could match the Japanese, British and other European aspirants for that position.

I suppose the constant top places of SE states in the WAEC, JAMB and other examinations was a supporting argument. These lists have the top Igbo states listed before Lagos comes in, and the only reason Lagos shows up in the top 10 is because there is a huge number of Igbos in Lagos, otherwise Lagos would head back down the list where Yoruba states abound.

lol

I was talking about a Yoruba woman inventor but you still brought in fraud.
You are not even ashame.
Are you Mmesoma's father?

Yorubas have more than 5 youngest PhD holders in the world.

Yorubas have 3 times the professors Igbos have and you no shame.
Hausas have overtaken Igbos in the number of professors.That is what should concern you.
You should cover your face in shame Mr Mmesoma.
