good. Teach them how to teach their pupils/students.

musaak: good. Teach them how to teach their pupils/students.

I guess you've never seen skirts, trousers and tracksuits that could drive you nuts. It's not what's worn; it's how you wear it. You can make a raincoat look indecent.

That is the most stupid crap I've ever heard. Other ppl are thinking of how to make education better and we're here focusing on clothes? Oh! And the commisoner is a woman?....kai! Have we covered issues like provision of books? Or other materials for teaching students? Who gives a crap about whether women wear trousers? How does that..........arghhh...u know what? This is why ppl think nigerians are stupid. And yes I'm a woman and proud to be one...thank God I live in a civilized place.
