Mathematics as a subject is feared
globally, not just in Nigeria says
Professor Sam Ale, a former
Director-General of the National
Mathematical Centre.
Ale said this in a recent interview
with Daily Trust in Abuja.
According to him, the fear of the
subject is not a Nigerian problem
because students all over the world
fear it..
“All over the world, there is apathy
towards mathematics because
people think the subject is
difficult,” Ale said.
“That’s a problem faced all over the
globe, not only in Nigeria.” Immediately you mention that you
are a mathematician, people will
refer to you as a terror.
“Majority of people don’t like the
subject and are scared of it.”
The Professor noted that only with
advancement in Mathematics can
the world progress.
“The advancement in the world is
together. I can make bold to say
that the world cannot advance
without advancement in
mathematics,” he added.
“Yes, it is a disease of many
students and people generally; but
truly, we need it to advance.”
He called on the government to pay
special attention to rural education,
noting that, “until educational
facilities are improved upon,
mathematics as a subject will not
thrive.” |
