Inasmuch as I respect you sir and that you are my country man, you lack sympathy and common sense sir....


Your lots benefited from British curriculum education which was mostly government sponsored or on common scholarships....


What do you expect?

Your lots destroyed the scheme, as you weren't a politician, you aided and abetted them.

You were a lawyer to Obasonjo who was another recipient of Nigerians benevolence and gullibility....


You guys ruined everything so don't compare

Simplyleo:
I agree.

Because ipob illiterates also claim they are graduates.

Imagine, graduates taking instructions from a fugitive hiding in a slum and end up swimming in gutters.

If I can't differentiate between transitive and intransitive verb, can you differentiate between Purine and Pyrimidine?


Bullshit!

I'm not blame him at all. The opportunist old stupid man that mocking the wokerholic innocent Nigerian Youths.

His generation destroyed Nigeria and scattered everything. Go to his home country in Ekiti and see
the properties this man own. Ask him where he got all the money from.

Before Afe became attorney General of federation he was a nobody he stolen our wealth and you still have guts to mocking us. Till date this man couldn't account for 5billion that disappeared from federation account during his tenure.

I wonder what English got to do with quality life ... Even in America there are many whites that couldn't write a good sentences even Trump also committing errors
most time.

A Mexican would leaved Mexico to America someone that couldn't even speak English or write English language but he will still find a good job and sending money to his country. America and other western country provides an opportunity for everyone regardless of Tribe, Ethnicity, religious, and Language barrier. Can the same thing be said about Nigeria.

I just don't know what this generation done to this old fool.

zsamorano:
you're confirm mumu...can't u see, u just make mistakes too. Honestly, the guy you quoted is far more brilliant than u.

Karleb:


Guy, don't feel bad.

Unless you're studying Geology, it shouldn't be your concern.

While I was in school, I was too busy battling with Protein, Nucleic Acids, Lipids and the likes to even think of nonsense like that. I was also into other fields during my free time.

[b]Focus on your field. [/b]Don't listen to one old man with prepared speech.

Saig:
English is just a language and not a measure for intelligence. What we should be concerned about is why we have faculties of engineering in our Universities, yet, give every single contract of any meaningful construction to the Chinese or Berger

His generation destroyed nigeria.

Tobest94:
I’ve a friend schooling in Korea, they don’t speak English at his school but native language.. So I’ve a question for y’all.. Are they not educated over there because they don’t speak English?

Angelfrost:


Blames... Blames... Blames... Wake up to the reality of today sir.

Education, good education is even far more accessible now than it was then. How??! The internet.

Instead of young people to maximize the internet and sundry resources to better their intellect, they rather pursue nefarious and mundane things.

Yes, our elders messed up with respect to building good legacies, but how well have your peers pushed to break barriers of ignorance?!! Everything good can never come easy.

1Sharon:


Exactly what the man is saying. A true rounded education is knowing a little bit about everything and not knowing ALOT about one specific thing.

Nigerians tend to know alot about a specific discipline and not much else.

1Sharon:


English is the 1st language and lingua franca of Nigerians, not the same for a knowledge in biology.

Bagehot:


It's not about speaking English . . . Years back, when I used to interview graduates for entry-level positions, I used to ask questions as basic as 'What is 10% of NGN25,000?' just to tell you how bad it was, those who floundered were in the majority. It was so rampant, that the recruitment people were always stunned at how many people they dropped off without even asking tough questions - just basic 'what is a 5% of NGN14,000'. If you don't like Babalola, would you at least listen to Soyinka . . .

How will knowing the difference between transitive and intransitive verb help me buy cheap Christmas chicken in the market?

There are graduates who do not know the difference between Tropics of Cancer and Tropics of Capricorn. There are those who do not know Magellan line, that is, the line that divides the earth into two.

There are many graduates who do not know the distance between the earth and where the rain starts to fall. There are also those who do not know why we have day and night or the difference between Neap or High Tide or the fact that what is called heaven consists of billions of stars and different planets.

HigherEd:


Lol what is this

English proficiency isn't education. It is just one out of many very useful languages.
If you aren't a journalist, editor or an english academic, it is perfectly understandable that your knowledge of the language is common and not exceptionally professional. Just be able to write and communicate effectively without gaffing.

If I am not wrong, folks studying language still study adjectives, adverbs into their postgraduate levels.

As for geography. Perhaps I was taught about tropics of cancer, capricorn in secondary school, and my brain has simply relegated that information or it wasn't relatable enough to remember. But I find it funny the suggestion that inability to remember some topic in geography makes my entire education 'dangerous'.

If I rolled out an on the spot test in SSCE Biology, many of today's lecturers (including the OP) who aren't within the sciences would fail it woefully. And accessors would still agree I never crossed into higher education biology with the test.

Remember your father and possibly your grandfather belong to that generation.
invariably your father/Grandfather was also part of those destroyers

RedPanthar:
They will attack you for this truth the same way the minister of education was attacked for saying too many graduates can't write short sentences without lots of grammatical blunders.... Anyway, I'll only laugh.. Make dem no cum for me
