Can somebody tell me what a car is originally called in yoruba,ibo and hausa languages,the three major nigerian languages. Language is invention and creation,you create something,you name and others follow suit,just like a laptop computer,was there any name for it 30 years ago?i don't think so.It is about quest for the unknown. it is spiritual and whole. Those that pull the shot creates the language.you could be the one.

I think EDUCATION is very costly, Bad economy that make thins very hard is affecting studying generally. Poor pp can no longer avoid payment of school fees with qualities unless Public schools where teachers are teaching without care neither mind if the pupils really absorb what they are being taught.

Take for instance, the Rich pp children don't suffer for quality Education for they have money to spend to train up there children with good equipments and conducive environment.

God will Divinely intervain.

Prince that is one of the factors, you are right and that lies on the governement. They are many reasons for this "dilemma" and I agree that the kind of education given has alot to do with it.
You have teachers who barely passed English when they were in school who end up teaching English anyway. Such shouldnt be allowed to happen.

Rhino, some of them arent even fat  Sad

hmm my English teachers in high school used to "ta bon" so much that it is a wonder how i managed to speak and write good English. I guess it was something I happened to be good at, so no stress there.
they "ta bonned" so bad that i wonder if they even finished school. walai i'm sure they didn't possess the license to teach, they did ojoro.

yoruba teachers were the worst,  Grin with their H-factor and mispronounciation. God help u if u don't begin to speak like them at the end of the day. never will I send my 'shidren'  Tongue to a naija school o. even the so-called private schools are no better.
