If I accept all Igbo lies, then I wouldn't have been debating and antagonizing them here. Or are you not seeing my comments on this thread against them?


I don't understand what you are arguing here.
UI started out as a college of the University of London, while Yaba the first tertiary institution was just an ordinary college and people did not get a BSc from it. This was why staff and students were transferred from Yaba college to University of London's college in Ibadan.
Until 1963 did UI become a full fledged university of it's own.
What we are arguing about is a full fledged university and not a college of another university.


Prof Kenneth Dike who was the first VC of UI was the first Nigerian professor of History.
Prof Vincent Nwuga, first Nigerian prof of Physiotherapy.
HRH Prof Chike Edozien, first prof of Physiology.
Prof Eni Njoku, first prof of Botany
Prof Dennis Ugwuegbu, first prof of Psychology
e.t.c



This is the only point I may agree with you.

However, Igbos are not a minority in Rivers state. Igbo speaking tribes dominate 10- 12 of the 23 LGAs in the state.
In Delta state, they are about ⅓ of the population. The Urhobos are also within the same range, so there is no clear majority in the state, so we really cannot say Igbos are a minority in either Delta or Rivers state.
First of all, you are still not making any sense because the university college Ibadan awarded bachelor degrees but Yaba tech never award bachelors degrees or are saying people like Anichebe or Wole Soyinka never got a bachelors degree

The first university in Ghana today is university Ghana established same year as University of Ibadan with the name university college Gold-coast but Nkruma university of science & technology was established in 1955 (Five years before UNN).

However, University of Ghana is being reported in Ghana as the premier university in that country.

Hence, I don't understand why you should turn history on its head.

UNN was the first full fledged university in Nigeria. This is one lie that has been busted. UI is not the first university in Nigeria. However, it can be called the first tertiary institution in Nigeria.

Igbos also have many pioneer academic achievers. I have seen the list of pioneer academicians in Nigeria and Igbos were very many on that list too.

The list of Jamb & WAEC registration and results by states and individuals have seen Igbo states ahead of Yoruba states since the last few years. Even overall ranking of literacy rates of states by several bodies have seen Igbos to be higher.
Ekiti state was always claimed to have the highest number of professors in Nigeria, but Imo state has more as we have seen.

Please, I would like to see the registration figures for the last few years and see which Igbo states are ahead of Yoruba states in total registration numbers year in and out like you claim. Because apart from Imo which has the highest figures, 3 of the top 5 states are constantly from Yorubaland.
As for the one on results, let us see that too.

Your problem is simply because you have spent a whole lot of time with igbos you begin believe their lies.

First of all, University of Ibadan started in 1948 as university of college Ibadan but it was actually a degree awarding university. Yaba tech which was established much earlier was an institution which awarded certificates not university college Ibadan.. (Note: there's difference between the first indigenous university and first university in Nigeria)

Secondly, can you please list the igbo educational achievers you are talking about, especially the ones that put Yoruba's educational achievers in second position.

Thirdly, the igbos have only five state in which they absolutely dominate by population elsewhere they are minority, whereas Yorubas dominante 7 states and are strong minority in kogi state. Hence, it is not uncommon to find three of igbo states (Imo, Anambra and Abia) topping jamb admission on most occasions followed by the remaining seven seven Yoruba states (Oyo, Kwara, Osun, Lagos, Ekiti, Ondo and Ogun state) .


Please bring out this overall ranking by states by various bodies, let us break them down into actual figures.

Like I said earlier, massage the Egos of igbos all you want but please stick to the facts alone and not hearsay.

I actually have the real figures, but I am hopefully waiting for nowenuse to reply first.
