Not just because of problem of education in Nigeria, but because of the system of education handed down to Africa by white people, which doesn't allow us think outside the box.

We're trained to vilify anything we create, to consider our creation as inferior, to exalt white people. That's what the colonial masters told us to do. We were trained to believe the only thing we should consider valuable is what white people consider valuable.

The only reason we're even talking about this woman now is because white people thinks she's valuable. If white people didn't say so, we will all call her a useless illiterate.

Unfortunately, we're going to continue that way until we discard the colonial education handed down to us and create our own version of what education should be.
Why Didnt We Create Our Education B4 The Arrival Of Europeans?

Of course, we had our system of learning, but all our institutions were subverted and European system superimposed on it. We had our own nations, languages, religion, cities, government, etc. Everything was subverted and a new identify imposed on us.

The first university in the world was in Fez, Morocco, here in Africa,not in Europe. See Guinness world records, oldest university in the world http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/oldest-university

There were another university in Timbuktu, Mali (Sankore university) and another in Cairo, Egypt (Al-Azar univerity). These two universities still predate most European universities.

And they weren't even the oldest in Africa, but it's the one officially recognized. Over 3,000 years before Jesus was born, there was already a university in Sudan, where Europeans like Pythagoras, Plato, etc learned Mathematics and Geometry. Europeans, Asians, Arabs, everybody studied in Africa long time before our fall.

That's why I made it clear in my original post the system of education must be changed. The type of education that makes you permanently consider yourself inferior even with facts showing we had school before Europeans, that type of education is indoctrination. You've condemned yourself to eternal inferiority and there're millions like you out there, even in government. That's why we will never move forward. I' am not saying more than that, cause where you are now requires writing a book to bring you to light.

Europeans didn't just conquer Africa alone, but also Asia, the Americas. See why Europeans were able to conquer Africa and the rest of the world http://www.africason.com/2017/09/why-europeans-were-able-to-conquer.html

I' am writing a book specifically for people like you- the victims of the fake education we inherited. I have to do it because this continent can never move forward, if our schools keep producing people that hate themselves.

Just for your information, the ancient Moroccans and Egyptians that civilized Europeans were blacks. There was a time white people didn't live anywhere in Africa.

There's no country in Asia that wasn't colonized by Europeans, except Japan, Korea, Nepal, Thailand. Still, they suffered partial colonialism. It was their age of global thievery and no country was left totally untouched.

I' am sorry, if you feel offended. But, since you know Trump hates you; why do you hate yourself?
