SOME UNIVERSITY GRADUATES WILL HAVE A FEW CHALLENGES WITH THIS PRIMARY 4 WORK

 

 

“This is Primary 4 work ooooo! I can bet my last Naira that some University graduates will have a few challenges with these words! And the same people who we call primary school teachers, in some states, have not come across these words before talk less of use them when they teach! That is the state of our education in Nigeria!” - So were the words of the diversified Atunyota Alleluya Akporobomere, popularly known as Alibaba, this morning on his Instagram page regarding the image.

I had told some people on many occasions, where I witnessed a private high school teacher who cannot pronounce the word 'CHAUFFEUR' at an open conference where he was urged to read some quiz questions to students, and another of the same category who would always use the word 'MIX' in place of the word 'MINCE'. How much more blunders can we expect from the students when they go around in their communication. Are these not the same people who proceed to the higher institutions with the knowledge of what they had been taught in school? That is just what education has become in Nigeria Schools. Only a few, which are almost unaffordable to the majority give qualitative education.

However, I am always of the opinion that education is not only attainable in the school, much more, quality education. The best form of education and growth, which I have seen, tried and experienced, is the Personal Education/Growth. No matter how poor or excellent your teacher may be, you will never grow beyond him except you're committed to learning beyond his teachings. I feel uncomfortable within myself, when I see graduates who are not able to speak 80% fluent English and when you try to trace the root of their problem, they bring excuses of poor location, poor school education, poor background etc.

From my last post titled, "A DISEASE THAT KILLS MORE THAN CANCER", I quoted Bishop Oyedepo, where he said, "IT IS POOR STUDENTS WHO BLAME THEIR FAILURE ON TEACHERS". Therefore, wake up, be committed to self-learning and development; not every public speaker or people of public influence had the best educational platform as you may think; many of them were just addicted to continuous learning and development. Very good examples are Richard Branson of Virgin Group and Nigeria's Nike Davies-Okundaye of Nike Arts Gallery, which is arguably the largest of its kind in West Africa; these two, never experiencing University Education yet, have both lectured on few occasions at the prestigious Harvard University; all due to tireless commitment to self development.

ARE YOU STILL BLAMING SOMEONE OR SOMETHING FOR YOUR SITUATION?

BETTER WAKE UP!
