That is why we need educated Governors not some tout in Anambra state. What you said is true. We have very intelligent people in the East that if properly trained from childhood will make a drastic change in the Region.

This idea of building special science schools is something African countries should pursue vigorously. China has such arrangements where the best graduating students from different primary schools in science related courses are enrolled free of charge in special science colleges. They're highly trained and coached here with the authorities providing them with everything they need. This way , every gifted child is provided with an opportunity to access sophisticated education upto the tertiary levels with the help of state funding. You can see the amazing results today. I think we have to copy this in the East. We have a very highly pro education population, . We also have instances where gifted kids drop out of schools because of lack of adequate funding. If authorities can judiciously close this gap between enrollment, training and funding, lots of gifted kids who would have dropped out of school dey to funding will end up as solid professionals in the future.

Ishi agu is not an everyday dress for heavens sake! I'm all for the showcasing of our amazing culture but we should also realize that wearing a dress code for the right occasion is important in terms of preserving our culture. These days I see some wayward females sowing skirts with ishi agu materials. Many young boys use this revered material to sow their "fashionable" T shirt. Arù!

Exactly

bukatyne:


What is the Ishi agu material for?

Used for sowing dresses for "TITLED MEN" in igboland

Over here in the North,you will only see such large gathering of children in the form of Almajiri... or during election malpractice or bandits/Bokoharam recruitment centres

owobokiri:


Used for sowing dresses for "TITLED MEN" in igboland

So only titled men should wear ishi agu?

I would also assume that men can use it on their wedding day because it is a very special occasion?

Is there traditional everyday wear for Igbo men/boys? Do women/girls also have something they wear everyday?

A symbol of culture of the igbos have now turned into school uniform, uniform wen kids go take dey rub ground dey play ball..... Tell me why anyone would wanna take ipob serious after this stunt? I don't know who gives them this kind of advise sha but the person just wan run them down

Well Mr wickednuna we have never heard of you around here, so your opinion doesn't count

If you've read definitive book of body language,then you would know that those guys do not agree with whatever the person addressing them is saying

God bless Igbo nation. A nation with foresight and accomplishments in all human endeavour.

I always thought this attire was for festive occasions and quite expensive

Anambra state is the Igbo first born and leader

Just like Ile ife in osun is Yoruba first born

Kano is Hausa first born

Did 'Anambra state' is nigerian creation. Did nigeria exist before Igbo?

Commendable..its stylish,core African,now let the kids know their history,tell them how it happened.

Nice one coming from my villa

This story about Anambra state, a state created by one murderous Murtala Mohammed and amended by the likes of Babangida and Abacha, being the first son of Igbo land is so jejune and infuriating that most of us non Anambrarians seldom try to dignify this warped thinking with a response..

Nnamdi Kanu said it severally and anambra is the leading Igbo state in all ramifications

jimyjames:

Well Mr wickednuna we have never heard of you around here, so you opinion doesn't count

.. If it doesn't count u won't be replying me..... U just proved you are a fan of opinions thah doesn't count

WHOEVER INTRODUCED AFRICAN fabric as part of School Uniforms for our Secondary School children, should be commended.

Frankly speaking, I don't know if our beloved State would find another person in the mold of Prof. Kate Omenugha as the Commissioner for Basic Education in Anambra State.

This woman has introduced laudable, far-reaching and commendable policies that would stand the test of time.

Isi Agu to the best of my knowledge is not ment to be a skol uniform.

Poorly edited foto by a hungry blogger.
Check the heads of the students again

Omo! See pikins. With the rate at which people are giving birth, shey air go dey sufficient for us like this

The school should have a conventional school uniform.

But occasionally they can have CULTURAL WEEK within a school calendar which the student can be allowed to wear the native cloth.

It should not replaced the normal school uniform but it should be use to complement it and then promote the cultures of the Igbos and so on.

Omo! See population! But las las na 15k go be their teachers' takehome. Very heartless set of exploiters.

If other states in other region start this, Igbos ll start crying.

They always come up with tribal initiatives in their region but the moment other regions begin to initiate similar initiatives these bigots begin to scream blue murder.

They have never initiate anything possible in the history of this great country

Just imagine Hausa/Fulani begin to force students in their region to wear this below

And Yorubas begin to ask students in their region to wear their own tribal attire as shown below as uniforms in schools in the West

Just wait for it in few years, bookmark this page, you ll see how Igbos ll be crying here on Nairaland about how others Nigerians are treating Igbos.

Watch other Nigerians move on with their lives without complaining about what Igbos are doing in their region.
