The current state of Nigeria education is very alarming. The educational sector needs revamp, the system is messed up, decaying and backward in every aspect. ASUU threatening strike, government yet to meet up with ASUU negotiation, no teachers and lecturer promotion for years, no salary increment. How do they want the teachers and lecturers to be comfortable teaching. Check out the last strike took almost 1year before it was called off. Reason the delay, time and frustration meted on students which is not proper hence students finding their way abroad to study making Nigeria to loose both manpower and resources to other nations of the world. And another thing is this, after finishing your higher education, getting a job is another prayer point waiting for answers. May God help us in this country.
The educational system in Nigeria is wholly dysfunctional, and I keep blaming our leaders because they have taken advantage of the underprivileged while their children are abroad enjoying the good and well-organized governments of other nations while their fathers the people we refer to as our leadersare here laughing at the expense of the underprivileged who will never have the opportunity to study abroad. Do you not recognize how they are all making investments in themselves?
The government is not proactive in educational matters in the country. They are less concerned in any thing education because they no feelings and sympathy for the less privileged. They are doing this forgetting that they were made by this same system they are neglecting now. They passed through the same process which made them who they are today. Some of them were product of public schools and scholarships from the same government they are piloting affairs of today. They are less concerned now because they have embezzled from the system that made them, they have sent their children abroad to study in the best schools in the world with quality and sound educational apparatus. They do not want the poor to be better than them because of the fear of revolution. So they always want to be at the top of everything but I assure them that their is always expiration date for a commodity.
