A lady has expressed shock after seeing that over 200 students in one of the Nigerian tertiary institutions had carryover in mathematics.
In a viral video on social media, the lady filmed over 200 students who, according to her, were those with carryover in mathematics.
Speaking in the video, she said: “omo see carryover students in mathematics. Them plenty ooh, accounting students, carry over choke.”
As she was recording the students, who were suspected to have gone to write exams or had just finished, one of her friends approached her. The friend happened to be one of the accounting students.
Jokingly, she said: “so you get carryover, see carryover face,” and they both laughed as the lady walked away.
The video has sparked numerous reactions, as many people are eager to know what could have caused such mass failure in the department.

Mercy wrote: “That’s not just a student problem, that’s a system failure. If 200+ students are carrying over the same course, then something is fundamentally wrong with the teaching method, evaluation, or support structure – not that all the students are suddenly dull.”
