These are some of the pupils of Obafemi Owode Local Government Primary School in Abeokuta, the OgunState capital. This dilapidated classroom ranks as the worst class rooms to study. It is dangerous learning environment for children.

This is one funny thing about nigeria! Every single day you put on your radio or tv you here millions and trillions of naira, yet we still have schools without roofs even in state capitals. It's really appalling, and one wonders if this school is not under a ministry, what the comissioner responsible is thinking...It's sad because after all the noise and argument over budget implementation, when you go down to the grassroots you see things like this...and then you wonder again: what is really the purpose of governance....Is it to attend world summits, to host foreign govt officials, or what, cause in Nigeria these are the issues that make headlines. No one stops to wonder what future these children- these young innocent Nigeians- have studying under a roofless classrooms without even enough seats. Where is our hope?
