Jokerman: The fact that you don't understand why is not strange. What is unity school in the first place? It's a school that represents unity i.e one school where you meet people from all parts of Nigeria. So if every state must be in every unity school, and all states are given the same number of slots, say 20. If 20million students apply from Anambra but only 15 students applied from Yobe, You get the difference in cutoff points. That's means for any student from Anambra has a 1 in million or 0.0001% chance to get admission and a person from Yobe has a 130% chance to get the same admission. The way to apply that percentage is the cut off marks. It's the same reason that the Jamb cutoff for MBBS is higher than Zoology or why your 350 in Jamb from Anambra doesn't automatically qualify you for admission in all Federal universities. While Anambra students queue up in millions to get a chance to go to a unity school, the slots for people of Yobe is not even filled. This unfilled slots defeats the aim of unity school. So they want Yobe students to be there, hence the almost zero cut off mark. You can't say let us then give Anambra all the slots because they have more brains, that means some unity schools will have only Anambra, Imo, Enugu, Ebonyi and Abia state students only. That school now fails as a unity school, it is now a southeast Unity school. How many Hausa/Fulani do you think will allow his daughter go to a unity school 3 states away? In the north, parents are begged even at this time and age to send children to school. What do you expect? These things are made with reasons. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Why Is There No Uniform Cut Of Marks For Unity Schools In Nigeria? by DIVINEEVIDENCE: 4:52pm On Apr 27 |
StOla: And your idea of unity is to give admission to a student who failed 98 questions out of 100 while denying the one who got 86 questions correctly? An example of unity is what obtains in the NYSC, where Igbo is posted to Fulani communities and Yoruba to Itsekiri. Unity schools should operate in that same sense by shipping students to different states to intermingle and develop a broader world view. This admission quota is pure marginalisation. I should think the idea of educationally less disadvantaged states should be a long-term project of shaping up the education quota of bereft states to match up with their sharper counterparts. If after 50 plus years an average student in Kebbi would find it difficult to score up to 50% in general subjects then the system should be scrapped. It is clearly unworkable. 2 Likes |

This is just one area of the numerous anomalies in the Nigerian project! One country, they say, but different oprressive policies for some. The system of different policies in cut-off marks was introduced long time ago to address what was termed "educationally disadvantaged states" to enable them catch up with the rest of the country. However, after so many years, this unpalatable situation has become the birthright of those States. , Today, someone from Yobe State has more say in the affairs of the country than someone from say Imo State or Delta State after having graduated with a weak cut-off mark because of the skewed system. This internal apartheid system is discriminatory, oppressive, wicked and against the principles of equity and natural justice. This has to stop at some point in time! @hotseat 1 Like |

That is because it's a unity school and they want every state to be represented to foster unity They didn't tell you brilliance is the first criteria There are other schools whose admission are based on brilliance go to those ones It's the same way they had affirmative action in the US for minorities |
Re: Why Is There No Uniform Cut Of Marks For Unity Schools In Nigeria? by adanny01(m): 5:04pm On Apr 27 |
DIVINEEVIDENCE: The idea of unity school is to have people from 36 states and FCT, in one school. It is not to have 500 students from Anambra and none from Yobe. The quota is not because Anambra people have brains and Yobe people don't. The problem is Yobe people don't have the zeal or interest based on cultural and religious issues. You have less of them even wanting to go to school not to talk about going to a Unity school far from home. Do you know that initially, you only go to a unity school totally out of your zone. Now people from Kano are sent to Kaduna. They have even relaxed it to encourage some areas. |

Brendaniel: The motive of creating Unity schools is number 1 equal representation of all state If a class will be made up of 30 students from Benue then it's no longer a Unity school There are thousands of schools based on academic excellence You cannot use FG money that belong to all states to promote an institution that doesn't cater to every citizen |

Segzy19: You people need to understand that we have the worst of us running this country now. For countries run by reasonable people, they know how to identify people's strengths and deploy them in areas where they can function well. For instance, Northern Nigeria is doing so well in agriculture. A serious country would have developed that industry so well that we can produce sufficient food to sustain us and export cash crops to the rest of the world. Doing this will increase our FX earnings, utilize the massive arable lands of the north, build huge ranches in collaboration with the private sector and employ tens of thousands of herders and farmers from the north. Everyone must NOT excel in academics.... But then, no worries.... people like us are coming... Let's make enough money to give the thieves running this country now a run for their money first.... |
