Oma307:

bro I investigated a school in my nearest community who is benefiting from the feeding program and I asked pupils about the feeding and the response is that it has been more than two weeks that the woman have come to the school

olaoreawofele:
There will always be instances of failure and corruption induced sabotage in a system like ours. These cases should be reported to the authorities. It is just like contractors who collect fees and refuse to execute roads etc. Nevertheless, the school feeding programme is a good one. The pupils, who are the target of the feeding programme, deserve the welfare of the state. The elite had looted since the dawn of the first republic leaving the citizens wallowing in poverty. Simple acts of kindness shown at the elementary schools will go a long way to build trust, hope, loyalty, and dedication in the mind of the pupils. Maybe they will turn out to be more worthy citizens of this nation than the yahoo generations and slay mamas of this era.

Just my thinking bro.

You mean feeding school children is better than having a conducive learn environment with well paid qualified teachers?

lexy2014:


Y shouldn't u tell me? How would I no d schools were d school feeding programme is taking place? Aren't u d one who made this statement? U mean u don't have any information to back up ur claim?

Koolking:
Niger NLC? Trivial.

If you check, well the man is PDP. They have a way of belittle projects for the downtrodden without commensurate solutions. Nigeria is not only for the elites.

After 16 woeful years, you still pay minds to PDP and cohorts, it means you are jobless and corrupt.

somehow:



I made a claim or asked you a question?

lexy2014:


Y shouldn't u tell me? How would I no d schools were d school feeding programme is taking place?

lexy2014:


That's y I asked u this in return:

yrex01:
This program is the best way to lure student to school in north. In my compound @minna all the kids don't Skip school again bcoz of d food.
Whereas they dont take school serious until this program comes up.

This NLC cef go get sense.
D previous gov we no feed school, how many school dey renovate?
Some pipu just hate to see d poor happy, that's it.

somehow:
You said they should use the money to renovate the schools and i asked if these schools aren't being renovated. It's for you to answer if they are not being renovated, not you asking me if they are.

You started the renovation talk, not me. got it?

lexy2014:


Can u produce where I stated d above?

lexy2014:


After luring them to school, d kids sit on d floor, are served food on pieces of paper& hardly learn anything. I doubt if most d "lured" kids even have writing materials

I responded to both yours and that of another person.

Both of you spoke with concluding tones.

You claimed these children sit on the floors and served food on pieces of paper and hardly learn. Can you show us proof to these assertions

Elliot2:
NLC is mad. There are thousands of poor pupils out there who don't see food to eat talk less of a good meal. And so those meals provided by the govt is one act of saving them from the untold sufferings. I saw things while serving in Kogi State; it was so bad that I spent d least #500 everyday buying food n snacks for the kids. And in turn, the kids became happier and eager to learn when I taught. We can only sue for transparency and sincerity on the part of the govt in executing d policy.

saintini:
The Niger state government or local government where those schools are located have responsibility to provide teachers, infrastructure and learning aids for the school.
If they don't want the school feeding program they should with the permission of the parents ask the FG to discontinue the programme. This should free up funds for other states that will gladly embrace it .

somehow:


How come Western countries serve food in their various schools? Can't they just eat at home?

Are schools not being renovated? Did the school feeding stop renovation?

soulpeppersoup:


How many of those schools have a teacher handling more classes and subjects than required as is the case in your Nigeria?

How many of such schools parade dirty, unattractive classrooms like your Nigerian's?

Do you even know why private schools are having upper hand in admitting more students than public schools all over the country.

School feed program is a useless and corrupt program. It's a waste of our collective resources.

It's a display of lack of critical thinking to solving Nigerian problem.

If school feeding program can't reduce the number of pupil going for private schools, it's a useless program.

soulpeppersoup:


The writer of the report said the fund should have been used to develop infrastructure in the educational sector. Are you more knowledgeable than those principals managing those schools?

Abeg shift!

lexy2014:


How do d things I said now equate to renovation? Or does renovation have another meaning?

Sirjamo:
NLC Chairman that's always dinning at expensive restaurants will not know the impact of the school feeding program.

The children's parents are in the best position to assess the program, not an elite whose children are probably living and schooling in America.

somehow:


In a vain country where everyone wants to prove that they are better than their neighbor, you don't expect private schools not to boom even though most of the products aren't that far away from their counterpart in productivity.

The program is to lure those who can't afford even public education to schools, not those forming big men attending private schools even with outright dull kids.

Some of u just come online to show how ignorant u r. Is it the duty of the FG to develop the infrastructure of schs owned by the state, is it the duty of d FG to provide teachers for these state and local govt owned schs......y not channel ur grievance to those who budget money for these things and yet do nothing.

Let me tell u something I know, I was teaching in a govt primary sch way back, govt released funds to build a befitting structure for the school, I saw d plan it was supposed to be a two story building, guess what these guys did, the supervisor, contractor did d foundation to support what was on the plan, but when they were about to finish the ground floor, they changed their mind and roofed it. Tht is how tht sch remains til today. They ate the remaining money and nothing was done. Left for someone like u, u will blame buhari and his sch feeding program.....god is watching u oh

somehow:
Not having chairs to sit on or plates to serve pupils with would be under what please if not renovation?
