Death of Education

The education system in Nigeria as we all know it, is not doing so well especially in a remote and local areas in the country. In areas where is populated by the higher class or the bourgeois, we can say that they have low or no education problems for their children and this is because they have the power to sponsor their children into the best schools in the country and can take their children to school abroad.

But the pitiful side of education system is the part where the education of the less privileged children comes into discussion. The children in ghetto areas, villages and remote areas. Children of those poor citizens who have to go out everyday to work for a payment in order to feed themselves and their families for the day.

Families have to work harder than everyday and save more than they can afford if they want to sponsor their children to school or cater and tackle for some other necessary urgent and emergency situations which may arise.

Happy Friday to everyone on this platform, wishing a blessed day and a happy weekend in advance.

These people are the most vulnerable victims of corruption, bad governance and poverty. They are the victims of unemployment, illiteracy and injustice. Few rich people in the country are willing to give a crap about the well being, education and fair treatment of these poor souls in the country and fewer are able to provide and help them out of their situation. And sadly greater number of people just prefer to just sit down and watch these people drawn in there dire conditions.

Now the educational system or schools in Nigeria doesn't at all favour the poor communities. Most public schools are only populated by the poor citizens in the country who cannot afford private schools for their children, and as for there maintenance, they only get what they get.

Governments that is suppose to take absolute care and maintenance of them and provide all necessary materials and equipments for the academic success of the public School students are not doing much. They don't even remember to check on the activities of the school until election times and time for their campaigns. So sad and unfortunate.

There was a time when students spend two to three years preparing for their SSCE exams but now all that is history. Students now wait hours in the exam halls hands folded waiting for their teachers to come write the exams for them. What is the cause of all this and what is the solution.

Students now leave secondary schools with empty head and a fake certificate that they can not defend. And then they somehow through illegal ways go through universities. Some luckily get to graduate and some got exposed in the middle of their programs, some after they have graduated. But no matter what the case is, if care is not taken in reforming the system, then that is how the education system will keep producing unqualified graduates. God Bless.
