The State of Nigeria education.

[sokani]

The state of Nigerian education is nothing to write home about and the major cause is our politicians. The don't care about the common man's child as they can afford whatever amount to send their wards to the best private schools and universities anywhere in the country and abroad. So if ASUU strikes for 2 years they don't give a damn as long as they are not affected in any way, they are good with it. Most of our public school are not conducive for learning as some students lack the necessary basic materials like chairs, desks, to sit and write on while in some part of the country they don't have classrooms but sit under tress. Education is the bedrock of every society and our government needs to do more to improve our learning environment and come up with a better welfare packages for our teachers and lecturers.

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 leaders—are 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.

Our politicians have really failed in all aspects of governance in Nigeria simply because none of their children is here with us they only came to Nigeria for vacation and left after small period of time, even the teachers and lecturers are being less paid even the small token they are giving them I'm not being paid on time, this has really affected our educational system I pray God will bring a revolution in Nigeria.

I was told by my father that those days, as soon as you are done with your youth service, you automatically get employed by the government or any company in your district but these days the story is not the same. Gone are the days when such  juicy opportunity are given free of charge to citizens, if you must get it that way, you must fight your way through or if at all you have a godfather in politics to sign for you then you are good to go. After years of education, money spent to aquire your school degree through learning and lots more, you end up roaming around the streets in search of greener pastures. This is a big error. Even the academic system itself is on the verge of collapsing, being neglected by the government and poorly funded. As OP has stated truly " May God help us"
