As if they ever score high marks in the first place.mtchewww. meanwhile ministry of education will always use quota system to ensure they get admission with their low scores first and edge southern and eastern candidates that even did much more better

Once we restructure, each region will do as they please. North can reduce cut off to 2 if they please.

Werey dey disguise... 2023 is around the corner, Godfather of bigotry want to start patronising Southerners 😁

This useless man is talking too much.

Nigerians would say, you Demarket the north just to gain acceptance by the other regions . This version is old. Please don’t drive this route.

Mtcheeew! Make Northern youths lazy, yet they more likely to be appoint into evey top office of Federal Agencies

Quota system results

Right. If it's an identified problem, what have those in government since 1999 done to remedy this?

For the very first time u speak what is sensible, Dts Good U can do better

No sir, the education you give them makes them. Improve the system and see. Lazy teachers, lazy students.

If the cut off is same as South, then every Northern Youth won't go to school. That's the beauty of federalism, each region would develop at her own pace. Formal education is not a do or die. Basic education is necessary & important. Cut off dealt more to the South than North.

No , it makes them astute . Just like another educational equalisation policy. El Rufai is now playing the good man as 2023 beckons. ' Selfish northerners opposing restructuring' 'Oh , low cut off mark in exams makes the northern youth lazy' Hey man see through this veil .

First time you ever said something worth listening to elrufai

So you guys know the truth

Absolutely true

2023 politicking.

ayemojubar Quota Governor. Mek we hear word. Na today you notice Quota system?.

No sir! You are wrong!

Good morning elrufai Good morning North

Udonminit!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Lol, mind games!! Like he will stop quota system if he becomes whatever. Never forget he paid Killers after tweeting this 👇👇

See werey wey dey disguise Yes you! elrufai

Anything for presidential seat. Rubbish

ayemojubar It’s not even about low utme una do dey sabi go school

Did they tell you they want to be hard working.....

You say?

elrufai u are now following the path of your friend SanusiLamidoS when he warned the north against quota system which is what is bedeviling that region since independence but they see it as a lee way to get to the top. but the backlash will soon be obvious.

Na now u just dey know abi...

If the same way El Rufai says the truth sometimes is the same way he walk his talk, he would have be one if the best technocrats in this country.

Same with unity schools cutoff. Why will somebody score 2/200 and get into secondary school? Like why?

Really there is absolutely no basis for low cut off mark for a region, it's actually an insult to the region. Give everyone a level playing field.

But that has been the escape route for them over the years. Why work hard when you know quota syst favours you.

Of course

Close ur dwarf mouth

2023 is around the corner.

Always on point with the truth

Them swear for this man

We'll pad their scores to make them hardworking.
