@TheVictorOkafor Let me not talk about the horrible reign of Unai Emery or the referee injustices that Wenger faced. I tell people Arteta has changed our lives but some just don't get it.
@TheVictorOkafor Unfortunately for me, I experienced all these things and more.
1. Playing Stoke at the Brittania
2. Man city gave us 5 ... 1
3. Chelsea gave us 6 ... 1 at Wenger's 1000th game.
4. Monaco knocking us out of thr UCL, infact we couldn't cross the round 16 for several years.

I found a prayer in Isaiah 45:2–3 this morning. Lord, go before me into places I cannot enter by myself. Straighten what has been difficult, break through what has stood in my way, and make a way where I cannot yet see one. For the things concerning my life that I have no idea how to solve, I ask You to handle what is beyond my reach. Open doors I cannot open. Bring the right people into my path. Give me access to what You have prepared for me, even in places I never thought to look.
And when You begin to do these things, help me recognize that it was You. Let me not become so focused on the method that I miss the miracle.

This is not about Arewa's poor JAMB results. The number of registered candidates should worry us more.
Kano (17.5 million) is about three times as populous as Benue (6 million). Yet, the number of candidates who sat for the 2026 JAMB in Benue (99k) far exceeds the number in Kano.
If that doesn't scare you, look at Sokoto, Kebbi, and Zamfara, which had only 17.4k, 17.7k, and 15.6k candidates, respectively. Each of these states has a population roughly comparable to that of Benue.
The total number of students who sat for the 2026 JAMB in all three states (SOKEZA) was just 51k, approximately half the number in Benue alone.
In other words, for every one person in Sokoto, Kebbi, or Zamfara who sat for the 2026 JAMB, there were roughly six people in Benue who wrote the same exam.
What is going on? Is this okay?
