Labour Party’s presidential candidate Peter Obi has said he would exploit the quranic proficiency of northern Nigerian schoolchildren to give them a career pathway built on skills.
At a televised dialogue underway on Arise TV, Mr Obi said northern children’s ability to master the Islamic holy book indicated they would be able to master skills to hike out of poverty.

“If they can learn Quran, it means they are intelligent,” Mr Obi, a former governor of Anambra, said as part of a broad response on tackling education. “I will meet them where they are learning Quran” and let them know they can have skills.

“What we need to do, other than increased investment in education, is also to have increased inspection across state and local government,” Mr Obi said.

Education in northern Nigeria has lagged behind the rest of the country for decades, with a substantial majority of the country’s out-of-school children being from the region, per UNICEF estimates.

Mr Obi has repeatedly suggested that education in Nigeria could play a major role in piloting the country out of endemic poverty and deprivation. If elected at the upcoming presidential election, he said he would earmark 10 percent of federal budgetary provisions to education, a feat never before achieved in the country’s 62 years of self-government.

If they can master the Quran it means they are intelligent! Can you believe this coming out of a presidential candidate?
Quran or no Quran what makes you think they are different from their counters from anywhere in the world?
Do you think intelligence is shared geographically?
This candidate is too slow for my liking.

MERE POLITICAL MANIPULATING STATEMENT TO WOO NORTHERN MUSLIMS , I'M NOT SURE THEY ARE THAT DUMB EXCEPT THEY PROOF ME WRONG .

SWATMan:


You jump into any thread where Obi's name is mentioned to comment by pretending to sound intelligent but end up showing that you lack content. Your intellectually dumb posts are mostly ethno-emotionally pedaled for any discerning mind to notice. Please focus on laundering the image of your mentor instead of posting senseless comments on PO's issues.

ElSudani:


What is the correlation? Why must their ability to learn the Quran even come up. Isn't it a common knowledge by now that the reason the north is lagging behind is because of lack of adequate funding for education?
Why must their ability to learn even come up?
Obi is too dumb.

StrongandMighty:

God forbid that I should argue with you! Your daftness stinks!
Tufiakwa!

Greatkenny2:

Imbecilee, lack of education in the north has little or nothing to do with funding… it’s about willingness, value, commitment… if they can learn the Quran they can learn a skill comfortably… they should prioritize basic education and not Islamic schools…Jonathan built and funded some schools in the north, go to the schools today they’re all closed and poorly maintained….
