Common sense should tell you that the south-west hosts the largest number of miscreants. the miscreants from alaigbo,the almajiri from the north coupled with the fools we already have here. its common sense. the gala sellers don't go to school so its only natural the population of school attendees is low but yet it's still in contention for the top spot |

Aareonakakanfo: Lol! When you buy JAMB form( that is if you schooled in Nigeria, as I am beginning to doubt if you schooled here) you fill your state of Origin, not state of residence. Look at the number of applicants from Lagos state in that stat, it's small, even though we know Lagos is quite a populous state. That was so because, Only few people in Lagos are Lagos natives. they all filled in their state of Origins when they registered for JAMB, and not their state of residence. 2 Likes |

Re: Education Statistics in Nigeria (Who is Going to School ?) by scholes0(m): 1:23am On Aug 20, 2015 |
Aareonakakanfo: it is psychological. I think in Nigeria, some Igbos always feel the need to measure up to Yorubas and others. Hence the reason why they mis-attribute a lot of their misfortune to others, and like you said, this "Us vs Them" attitude you talked about. |
Re: Education Statistics in Nigeria (Who is Going to School ?) by Tkester: 2:07am On Aug 20, 2015 |
scholes0: Stop deceiving yourself, Igbos don't feel any need to measure up wih yorubas, what makes you think Igbos are not ahead of yorubas in any measurable human index. We can go on bean counting, just mention any field of endeavor you think yorubas are conversant with, and lets measure the numbers to see if Igbos are not far ahead of yorubas. One thing I know is that the Igbo tribe will remain the leaders of every human field of endeavor in Nigeria. We lead and others follow! 2 Likes |
