This life no balance at all

Re: Senate Seeks Extension Of Free Education To Senior Secondary Schools. by nextstep(m): 5:21pm On Jul 22, 2020
Normally this is a good thing, but this is not what Nigeria needs right now.

Even now, free primary education is not that good. That same budget will now be spread even more thinly. We barely have functioning government universities/polys (which are heavily subsidized). If there is money, please use it for grants or low-interest loans for entrepreneurs - that's what will drive the economy.

At any rate, it appears senators are just looking for the next sector to run down as they siphon funds... undecided

It may surprise you to know that some of the people behind the high cost of education in Nigeria are actually products of scholarships. Kudos to Rochas Okorocha.

You're right.

But will Buhari sign it into law without borrowing more money than what the future generation can't pay?

North hates western education... Let's wait and see how it goes. grin

where is free universal basic education here in Nigeria in which pupils in primary schools and students in junior secondary schools are still paying school fees
Re: Senate Seeks Extension Of Free Education To Senior Secondary Schools. by airminem(f): 5:30pm On Jul 22, 2020
They should also extend palliatives to the secondary schools through school feeding scheme.

Correct analysis smiley

FG that can't properly fund its Basic education up to Junior school. Can't fund tertiary institutions or healthcare and their workers...

They should not just water everything down to become worse than what it is presently because even now qualitative education is virtually non existent in this country.
Re: Senate Seeks Extension Of Free Education To Senior Secondary Schools. by HeavenlyHolines(m): 5:36pm On Jul 22, 2020
I laugh when Nigerians talk about free education in this 21st century. They should lend about Finland educational system because it's this same free education that crumble educational system in government secondary schools where you will find hundreds of students in a class and outdated curriculum and teachers.

Free education is the begining of our problems in this country.

them never provided quality education when you are paying not to talk of when it is made free. Okorocha is the grand commander of free education in Imo state but non of his children benefited from his nice gesture to Imo people.

This is crazy ...free education got us to this useless point we are

This is the awolowo policy we adopted that brought us the low quality of graduates

Education is never for everyone that's the sad reality ....it's better to have one well educated graduate to having 10 half baked graduate

Make education expensive then mandate multinational to train smart people which certain level of scores and if they maintain it

Imagine if we paid 200k as school fees to government per term ...we won't all take rubbish quality na ...

In terms of education I'm with Zik ...people should pay to get educated , communities should come together to train the best brains they have ...our output would be bigger in the long run
It's secondary not tertiary institutions 0oo. U mean communities should come together to train the best brain to secondary schools?
Free basic education has increased Nigeria's literacy level.

I hope it is not another audio tins. They should also build more secondary schools. In my area we have just two public secondary schools and private secondary are more than 10. Proposing free education for secondary schools is good but not good enough

Wit dt ur submission, I beg 2 differ, u're simply on ur own!

Who are d pple 2 pay 4 d expensive education u're suggesting?

Is it d already critically immiserated masses?

Or don't u think if they so do in a poverty-stricken Nation as Nig, education wil automatically bcom d birthright of d well-to-dos?

And most of d rich pple's children ain't as brainy as d poor pple's children! Think abt dt already!

At d end of d day, d brains of those poor children dt wld hv benefited d Nation massively in d future, if developed, wil then get atrophied or wasted away!

Or, how wld u even define Social Justice within d context of pple's govt if d commoners can't access qualitative & functional education provided by d govt?

Since they can't run a world class secondary school, would u rather prefer they use all they have to run a half way world class secondary for 20% leaving 80% in illiteracy? Half bread they said is better than none. It's the same half baked educational system that u graduated from. I'm not sure ur parent could afford the world class secondary sch you're talking about.
If not for free universal free basic education, most Nigerians can't read nor write.
Let's worry about our literacy level first b4 we worry about world class standard, we'll eventually get there some day.
