musty, i graduated over 9years now. You know the type of country we live in. Rather than have things improve, it deteriorates - that's the problem we face as Nigerians. During my time, not everything was smooth with the school. I learnt alot from FGCU - I developed my adaptation skills there. As i de so, i fit live on top MOON self and i met my best friends there.

He brought bones to the classroom. He was very generous with bones.

One afternoon, a middle aged man walked into SS 2E, he introduced himself as the new Further Maths and Mathematics Teacher. “Good afternoon class, my name is Olusesi, I will be teaching you Mathematics and further Mathematics”.

Prior to his appointment, our Further Mathematics teacher was Corper Tolu – a National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member.

Corper Tolu introduced us to the “good” side of further mathematics; she solves simple further mathematics problems as examples and ensured our class work and examinations were easy. At a point, she assigned her duties to our fellow colleagues (Halilu Yusuf, Annafi Azeez and Ikuku Aboko) – they were the best mathematicians in the class.

During her time as Further Mathematics teacher, my Maths notebook was “decorated” with excellent marks. I once scored 97% out of 100 as the final cumulative score at the end of a term – that was how good life was during Corper Tolu’s reign.

On his first lesson, Mr Olusesi weighed our understanding of Mathematics and further mathematics. The result of his assessment revealed that we had a shallow knowledge of the subject. He found this revelation disturbing.

He saw it as his responsibility to turn our fortunes around in Mathematics, Further Mathematics. He came up with a rescue formula – BONE THEORY. He demystified mathematics; he always had two methods for every topic, a short method which is appropriate for objective tests and the standard approach for theoretical examinations.

Unlike many teachers, he solves simple, difficult exercises as class examples and “serves” difficult questions (BONES) as class work and assignment. By serving us bones; he prepared us for our final examinations.

On many occasion, he exhausts his class period and engaged our free periods too. Sometimes, he organized a 30 minutes lecture after school hours – at no additional cost to us. Other teachers who organized extra-mural lessons did it at a fee.

I am glad writing this testimonial about a living legend. He was never late for his lessons and never came to the class with a note book or text book. Yet he solves many exercises and leaves us with assignments at the end of every lesson. This reveals how hard he prepared for his lessons and reveals his mastery of the subject.

He never used a cane, raised his voice at anyone nor utters an abusive word in the class room. You will be right to say he was a soft teacher; yet he had a firm control over his class. He was highly revered by his students. For me, he was more of a mentor than a teacher.

The final examinations, WAEC, conducted by the West Africa Examination Council Examination body turned out to be...... continue reading http://knowbase.appswheel.com/meet-the-man-who-taught-me-how-to-chew-bones/

What is the distance between Yesterday and Tomorrow? Leave your answer as a comment to this article (State your unit of measurement and why).

You have a reward for reading this article if you are one of the first 5 persons to send in the most creative answer or contribution to the question above.

Fine Arts used to be one of my favourite subjects in Junior Secondary School; I looked forward to the class which normally held at the Fine Arts lab. The subject was taught by Mr. Osayi, a middle aged soft spoken teacher who had a good mastery of his subject. The approach he employed in teaching the subject made me fall in love with his class and the subject.

Just yesterday, I ran my mind back on some of the moments I had in the Fine Art lab. It was a worthwhile exercise as it births the article you are running your eyes through and the lessons this writing hold.

I recalled these terms motif, mosaic, tonal value, perspective drawing. It was interesting to know I could still define them as were taught 13 years ago. Also, I recalled a particular session on the Composition of a Drawing. Lines he said (Mr. Osayi) are a major component of drawings and defined a Line as the distance between two points. Examples of lines include:

Dash
Dotted
Hidden
Zig-Zag
Continuous
etc

I concluded the recollection with the memory of the 2000/2001 Junior WAEC (West African Examination Council) Fine art examination. One of the questions in the practical section read; Make a side view drawing of the person seated by your side. I looked to my left and right. To my right was Samuel Ebune, to my left was Amara Onyejekwe (Now Mrs. Onyia). I had no second thought at whose side view to draw - Amara (the beautiful daughter of my Home Economics teacher). The only “regrets” I had was not showing her the beautiful drawing I made. For the records, I made an “A” in the examination.

Now you wonder what lesson my flash back holds. Did you know that continue reading http://knowbase.appswheel.com/motivational-piece-the-distance-between-two-points/

There are three arms of government, the Executive, the Judiciary and the Legislative arms. A brief description of their functions is provided below.

The Executives: The Nigerian Executive is headed by the President followed by the Vice president. The executive carries out the government policies. They execute and maintain the constitution of the federation.

The Legislature: The Nigeria National house of assembly consists of (360) House of representative members and 109 Senators, (3) from each of the 36 states and the FCT (Federal Capital Territory). The Law makers have the power to make laws for the peace, order and good government of the Nigerian people and the Federal Republic of Nigeria. They serve as a watch dog to both the executive and judiciary arms of the Nigeria government.

The Judiciary: The functions of the Nigerian Judiciary include, interpret the law and defend the Nigerian constitution, acts as a watchdog against excesses of the legislature and the executives.

A common definition for democracy is, “a government of the people, for the people and by the people”. You will observe that “PEOPLE” stands out in this definition. Therefore, it will not be wrong to say that the Government (The Executive, Judiciary and Legislative arms) exist for the people.

Since the return of democracy to Nigeria in 1999, have these arms of government worked in unison to really serve the people?

If you agree that the arms of government should not exist in isolation, and are a mechanism whose operation is meant to create a healthy, conducive and safe environment for her citizens, tell me how our arms of government have fared in Nigeria?

What is the fate of millions of half-baked graduates who are turned out of our Universities yearly? Many of these graduates are products of the so-called federal Universities. Presently, tertiary education is at a halt in Nigeria.

What is democracy to young children in Sokoto, Niger delta, Kogi and others in various towns, villages in Nigeria whose classrooms are under trees, dilapidated buildings?

What is democracy to young infants who die at child birth owing to lack of basic medical facilities?

What is democracy to the average income earner who cannot afford to travel abroad for medical checkup?

Our leaders know how “good” our tertiary institutions are; that is why majority of them send their children abroad for higher education. The same applies to health care. Some of them even travel abroad to buy panadol.

We have witness the executive, legislature and even the judiciary turn the law on its head; at the detriment of the masses. The “people” who are said to be the Subject of government, have turned spectators. Is that the best we can do – look on and watch the unborn generation robbed of a safe, prosperous Nigeria?

A fourth arm of government is important in a democracy like ours. I called it the governed arm. By this, I refer to Nigeria citizens not holding any political office or appointment. Amongst other functions, the governed arm shall:

1. Know their fundamental human right as enshrined in the Nigeria constitution.

2. Participate actively during elections and ensure to vote credible aspirants irrespective of tribe, religion. Non-participation should be considered a crime and breach of our common interest.

3. See Nigeria as one entity.

4. Call their representatives to account and be concerned about their representation.

5. Not succumb to the ploy of greedy politicians who may want to use them as political assassins or thugs.

6. Have a stake in the development of their immediate community.

I call upon fellow Nigerians to see the need to be concerned about our Nation; we must be concerned about the activities of our leaders and ensure that their policies, actions and representation promote the sustainability of the society.

I call upon the media to beam their search lights on government programmes, policies with emphasis on their implementation. As a National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) volunteer member of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) group in Emure-Ekiti, Nigeria. I remember the efforts made by the president of the group at the local government and state levels to effect the release of treated mosquitoes net for distribution in the rural areas. All his efforts were to no avail. Yet the mosquitoes nets were available but those who were in charge of the distribution preferred to distribute them amongst their kinsmen, sell or leave them to rot in their offices.

Abraham Lincoln said, “think of what you can do for your country, and not what your country can do for you”. At the moment, we can only adapt this saying to fit our Nigeria system. “Think of what you can do for your country; and continue reading http://knowbase.appswheel.com/democracy-in-nigeria-introducing-the-fourth-arm-of-government/

Recent statistics about carriers in Nigeria are very staggering. Experts claim that four in 10 Nigerians may be carriers. This is most prevalent in rural areas where people have no access to medical care. In the urban area, ignorance is very high.

A government of the people, for the people and by the people. I learnt that in primary school and its one of those (very few I must confess) perfectly intact fragments of my childhood memories that remain. I’m not going to insult anyone’s intelligence by implying this is because it stirred an ideological notion in me or resonated with a hitherto unworded truth deep inside me. To be honest it just had a nice ring to it.

As recently as four years ago, very few in the outside world could have predicted the events that unfolded in parts of Arab Africa and the Middle East. I seriously doubt that more than a handful of people living there could have. Tunisia. Yemen. Libya. Egypt. Syria. The Arab Spring.

The Egyptian people fought for Egypt’s right to democracy. The unique course of their struggle and victory are a story for another day. There was violence, yes, but because of the actions of some parties the revolution was comparatively peaceful. The details of that story are public knowledge.

Some people see a lot of bad in what the Egyptian people managed to achieve in their most recent “revolution”. For a fledgling democracy it sets a dangerous precedent. I did not border my last statement with “Some say” or “They say” because I also believe it is true. I do not discredit the demerits of their actions or pretend that there may not be consequences. Overriding all of this however, is what I believe they have achieved.

The Egyptian people have demonstrated to the entire world, a glimpse of something that our apparently-almost-universally-loved maxim was referring to. The sentence defines the concept of democracy which intends to empower the people- the masses if you like. It seeks to place the direction of a state in the control of the population by their choosing from their number who holds the steering wheel. It is flawed in that it is what it is. A concept. A system. A static solution to a dynamic issue. Imperfect. The Egyptian people refused to earn freedom from a dictator only to be imprisoned by a system… a concept.

I am aware that we could go a lot of routes from here. I could point out that there will always be opposition and incumbent in any government. We could begin a discourse on the importance of protecting the rule of existing law in preventing a fall into anarchy. Reprimand the military for the not being more responsible in the aftermath of their bloodless coup and for their role the resulting sad loss of lives. Maybe even cite example upon example of numerous oppressive dictatorships that started out as innocent Messianic interventions by the military. However, I want to end this by emphasizing two things. continue reading http://knowbase.appswheel.com/something-greater-than-democracy-the-egyptian-class-of-2013/

“FREED BY PATRIOTISM; RE-ENSLAVED BY GREED”, I hope the title of this reflection delivers my Independence message to my fellow countrymen.

The sign of victory that the independence held in 1960 has turned a sign of defeat 53 years on. Sometimes, I am forced to imagine Nigeria as a better country if it administration was left to the colonial masters up till the late 70s.

The mess we find ourselves as a nation is attributable to the failure of leadership. Leadership fueled by Greed. Critical studies of Nigeria as a nation show that it has never been united and the leadership has never had a common front, goal.

The power sector remains a quick example of how our leaders never had a common front. Successive administrations have come up with their vague goals. These Goals have never been achieved; from Obasanjo’s NEEDS, to Ya’aduas SEVEN POINT Agenda and now President Jonathan's Transformation agenda.

How does one explain that the present political office holders have their tenure expire in 2015, yet (for many) their primary focus is how to succeed themselves in 2015? Our leaders have become our greatest oppressors. A quick analysis of the various sectors, Agriculture, Health, Education, Technology, Power shows that nothing is working at the moment.

The follower-ship is not left out of the blame; the “I don’t care” attitude put up by many Nigerians is not helping matters. We forget that we are part of Government. Citizens who earn their living through sycophancy and as political thugs are not doing the nation any good.

At the moment we have a democracy, that is “a government of the leaders, by the leaders, for the leaders”.

Our only hope as a people is a change of attitude; leaders and followers alike must let go of greed, religious bigotry, nepotism and work towards a common goal. The goal of creating the Nigeria of our dreams, the Nigeria that Anthony Enahoro and other great Nationalist moved the motion of Independence for over 53 years ago.

God, save Nigeria!
