I love what the governors of those two states did.Schools have turned that graduation ceremony into another way of extorting money from parents. Parents pay heavily for this event. As i write this,i am a victim of this intentional act from the proprietor of the school my children attend. Soon other states will enact same law in their various states abolishing that exploitation act . It's so annoying, after you register your child or children with huge amount of money yet at the end of the term you are expected to pay another huge amount of money again for the end of term graduation party.
Indeed those state governors have done good for their state, instead of the parents to be thinking and planning of how to sponsor their children to higher education or spend those money to the poor people they end up spending unnecessarily on graduation ceremonies. So these are some of aspects our government should look into and take necessary measures.
Normally graduation wey I know before na if children Dey commot for primary 6 and if dem Dey commot for ss3 na him I know say dem Dey do graduation. But now even jss3 Dey do graduation now, if children dey go from nursery to primary class dem Dey do graduation, all this things na rubbish, something wey no get use. schools Dey use am chop money from parents, and they are using that to even disturb the society also. Seriously I like the ban, and it’s going to be nice if all states in the country bans it also.
And now as they are doing so, most especially in both government primary and secondary schools if the government didn't ban it, in future the teachers will be focusing only on how to make money with all these types of ceremonies instead of them to focus on their educational activities. And It's among the problems we're facing in our nation, many people graduate and they don't know anything so now as they are making money with unmeasurable promotion and graduations every where, how you think say upcoming generations should have good quality education.
