Min Of Education, Wike Asks Teachers To Educate Students On Non-violence by mukina2: 11:06am On Feb 28, 2012
Teachers should educate students on non-violent alternatives to managing conflict, Minister of State for Education, Barrister Nyesom Wike, said in Abuja yesterday.

Barrister Wike who spoke at the 2011 edition of the Annual School Award Ceremony of the International Foundation on Peace and Co-operation, said it is only when children imbibed the values of peace that they would see themselves as agents of peace.

“It is through education that non-violent means of promoting peace will be achieved and this is why the Government of Nigeria is doing everything possible to ensure that there is access and equity in the education sector,” said the minister who was represented by the Permanent Secretary of the Federal Ministry of Education, Professor Nicholas Damachi.

The Peace and Cooperation Foundation is an international organization which has been in existence for over 30 years. It engages students in competition on topics on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).

I see nothing new here afterall UNN has introduced that about 4 yrs ago (am sure some other schools too). Its either the Education Minister is ignorant of that or he is talking of Primary and Secondary schools.

Oga minister, stop invloving yourself in hankypanky politics. Advice your co ministers to do the right thing. Tell Mr President to ensure sanity in the government and put the right things that will make the poor man happy and see if there will be violence.

By looting the treasury, over personal aggrandisement, and politicking the oil and gas sector, you must be ready to face violence and even death.
