@Outstrip. I felt exactly the way you felt but that led me to take a major decision to be involved in the future of our current students.
All blame should not be dumped at the doorstep of the current students and teachers.
The current crop of uninspired teachers were the disgruntled students of a few years ago who read EDUCATION because they could not get into their first choice course. Also all the years of ASUU strikes have taken its toll on the quality of graduates produced. it is sad no one is pointing accusing fingers at ASUU for the role they played in destroying the future of the Nigerian graduate through incessant strikes and archaic teaching methods. How can a lecturer dictate the same course note for 10 years ? These crop of teachers have been joined by the graduates who roamed the streets seeking an oil company / bank job and only turned to teaching as a last resort. So you can see we have institutionalized problems already. Now how do these hapless teachers motivate a bunch of students who are daily bombarded with stuff on TV / Radio glorifying the easy route to success? BBA etc.
I seriously doubt if there are any training / refresher courses that teachers MUST attend after a certain number of years.
Are schools inspected regularly? I dare to say even if we have an inspection and grading system for schools, it would be abused with inspectors demanding and collecting bribes before grading schools accordingly.
Coupled with this is an inept and inefficient government who seem to prefer a total annihilation of the educational sector.
Two years ago I started Protege Leadership Academy ( www.protegeleadershipacademy.org ) after one of my visits to Nigeria to conduct a recruitment exercise for a British company. The quality of CV's I received from graduates made me weep.
The average Nigerian is the smartest person in the whole world.
Currently Nigerian girls are topping in the sciences in the UK ( girls category ). This used to be the exclusive preserve of Chinese girls. So I believe there's nothing inherently wrong with the ordinary Nigerian student. He is just a victim of his environment.
People let us join hands. What can you do? Every little help is required. I travel to Nigeria to hold a Young Leaders Academy programme to build leadership capacity in the current generation. I collect books from British Schools and donate them in Nigeria and Ghana. There's a lot we can do. Return to your secondary school and mentor someone today.

In summary, I have learned that it is always better to spend more on others and less on ourselves. Giving is the beginning of blessing and peace. Was I not protected because of this pastor’s acts of giving? Let us therefore reach out in compassion and generosity to our fellow man and do the good we can to change the bad we see.
