THE EDUCATIONAL PHENOMENON

 
   Much education today is monumentally ineffective. All too often we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants.”--John W. Gardner

   1:We study the past to analyze the present and predict the future.
   Had the colonial masters knew that giving Africans the privileged to be educated will eventually fight back against them, I bet you, they would have never make that window open.


   2: When we our fathers have access to education during the colonialism epoch, subsequently they realized the evils of colonialism. And they, therefore, fought against it to the core.
  We can say COLONIALISM destroyed it's self.
 

 3:  I suggest if every Nigerian has access to a qualitative education, equivalent or better than that which our forefathers had, we will know and fight against the evils democracy--immunity to corruption. The Nigerian Universities are only producing graduates who add to the statistics of unemployment in the  country. Has anyone ever asked why?


 4:  I think Democracy is system that keeps you in power if your masses are uneducated, unemployed and live in abject poverty. I said so because democracy cannot thrive in poverty. The advance countries per income will never be compared to that of the developing or underdeveloped nation today. If you doubt? That's an assignment for thee.
 
  5: Education is very important and absolutely gigantic in combating corruption, unemployment, crime, malnutrition and all social catastrophes.
 

6:  Now what type of education do we really need?  The world is changing rapidly. Cars produced and used in the 19th and 20th centuries are obsolete today. The production method are obsolete too. They can no longer serve today's population.


 7:  On the same breadth, I say, the educational system we are running on in this country is only but applicable to our forefathers alone. The population of our fatherland had quadruple over time.
 

  8:  We need a reform in our educational sector. A reform that will address the growing appetite for unemployment that the current system has. We need a reform that will address unemployment in the country. A reform that will reduce crime rate, infant mortality, increase life expectancy. Address income inequality, modern day slavery and cyber crimes, kidnappings, piracy, ritual and fraud.
 

  9:  WE NEED A REFORM THAT WILL CREATE ZERO TOLERANCE FOR CRIME AND INHUMANITY PERPETUATED BY THE GOVERNMENT.

  Such is the Nigeria I usually dreamed of everyday of my life.
          The battle of corruption is a struggle for the world; the fate of liberty everywhere depend on it.
