Do you know the school system is designed to make the average citizen slaves to the government.
Education is an act of acquiring knowledge or skills that will impact all aspects of your life. This is to say education is not all about acquiring certificate from an institution or college. It is acquiring knowledge from someone or somewhere. Everyone is educated in different aspects of life.
Every year there is an increase in aspirants into the different colleges and institutions in the country. This is so because acquiring a certificate from a known university in Nigeria has been implanted as the only way to be relevant in the society. Those who choose a different part rather than going to universities are either critized or seen as not serious in life. This most times has forced those who have gained admission into these institutions to go any means in acquiring a certificate and at the long run forgetting the essence of education.
The government has used education as a leverage on it's citizens, they use is it as a hold over youth who are aspiring to go into the work force to earn a living. The government make education so hard for it's citizens to delay you in one spot. First you have to write WAEC, JAMB, then POST UTME and then when you are through with higher institution, you go for NYSC and then at the end of the day some of these youth come out looking for job with a first class result, that is after taking 5-6 years of their lives(this is when there is no strike from University staffs). The government would not be able to take the all youth coming into the workforce so what can be done to hold them down. They use a difficult education system to tie the youth down so your attention is shifted to only graduating with a good certificate rather than being successful in life, making the youths think they can't achieve success without a certificate in hand.
The government has drafted the school system in a way that they would never teach you how to make money on your own, they will actually teach you how to help the government make more money. Because that's what the government wants. They teach you what they want you to know an so you hardly see schools teaching there students to be great investors or goal chasers but how to be answerable to the government for 35 years and at the end nothing to show.
Every great and richest men all thought out of what the government wanted, they became innovative and chased after it more than they wanted. To be successful in reality, the Nigerian students have to start thinking more than just obtaining a certificate but how can you actually bring food to your table after your education in institutions. The Education system is just a curtain that may cover some youth after some few years and after some time, you come into a clear reality of what is ahead.
The government needs the citizens to always be where they want and most times try to divert their attention and it is now revealed the government has nothing to offer the Nigeria youths and so they are using this plot called getting a degree to enter into the workforce. You find out that most of the men who actually know major field of work or business are not degree holders. Because the workforce will keep rejecting graduates with good certificate but would only take those with great ideas. It's not about what degree's you have, it's actually about what you have to offer. Realise your stance today and decide where you would be few years From now.
Schools, actually the governments, worldwide already do that since generations. They brainwash and tell you what to believe, when to demonstrate, sign a protest. If you refuse you are kicked out of school...
It is the reason too why so many countries are in trouble. There are no people with handcraft skills left and they are needed.
