Crime › Youths Protest Against Indiscriminate Arrests In Ondo by nathpope(op): 10:48pm On Jan 14, 2016 |
Some youths in Owo local government area of Ondo State yesterday staged a peaceful protest against what they described as indiscriminate arrests, extortion of money and harassment of the residents by men of the State Police Special Anti- Cultism Squad. The aggrieved youths, who gathered as early as 8 a.m, marched to the palace of Olowo of Owo, Oba Folagbade Olateru-Olagbegi (III), singing anti- government songs. They carried placards with inscriptions such as “We need help, not hurt”, Anti-Cultist squad are scammers, not security agents”, “no more innocent arrest in our land”, among others. The State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Mr. Femi Joseph denied the allegations. Joseph explained that some of the residents attempted to prevent the police from ar resting a suspected cultist in the town. He added that the police eventually arrested the suspect and he had been charged to court. He, however, urged the people to report any police officer found extorting money from them. http://dailypost.ng/2016/01/14/youths-protest-against-indiscriminate-arrests-in-ondo/

musicwriter: Yes, I will write something on that in future as I said. Indeed, it will be very inspiring.
In a nutshell.......
After several other past events.
I studied HISTORY and GEOGRAPHY in secondary school without a teacher, because we didn't have a teacher for the two subjects in our community school. But, I've been reading these subjects independently even before I entered secondary school.
On choosing subjects for WAEC, I listed the two subjects among my chosen course. But, because my subjects were different from every other student, our school principal saw it and called me to his office. On getting there he asked me why I included HISTORY and GEOGRAPHY. Well, I told him there were my best subjects. Then, he asked me; do you mean you've been running a parallel curriculum in this school?. Of which I answered YES.
He refused that I enter the two subjects for WAEC. He said I should resubmit my WAEC subjects without HISTORY and GEOGRAPHY (in hindsight I can see he thought he wanted to help me do the right thing).
But, I refused. I told him that I've been studying those subjects for too long, even before I entered secondary school. I told him repeatedly "HISTORY and GEOGRAPHY are my best subjects". He thought I was out of my mind. Actually, everybody thought I was out of my mind.
He then decided to test me. Later that day he came to our class and he told the whole class what was happening and that he was going to ask me some questions in the presence of my classmates. If I get the answers correct I will write HISTORY and GEOGRAPHY in my WAEC. And if I fail his questions I'll not take them.
First, using an atlas he drew a map of Eurasia (parts of Europe and Asia) and told me to point at "India, Sri Lanka, and Russia". Which I did gallantly in a Flash!. He asked me a couple of other questions on GEOGRAPHY, and I answered all of them without fail. Actually, I've been longing for someone to ask me such questions over the years. But, there was nobody to help me. That was the first and only day a teacher ever wrote "GEOGRAPHY" in a chalk board for me.
Long story short, I shocked the school principal. The man was so shocked about my knowledge of GEOGRAPHY and HISTORY such that he later came to our house that evening to inform my father that whatever he do he must send me to university. Henceforth, he began to address me as Mr. Geography, of which I was proud to answer.
I later sat for GEOGRAPHY for WAEC and got credit C5. I was the only student in the examination hall that day, no expos, just me and the question paper. History was dropped because according to the school principal I couldn't convince him I would do it alone. That was his assumption, but it wasn't correct. I would've still credited HISTORY, if he allowed me.
I don't want to write longer. This may actually be put in a book to inspire others as you said. I'm a living proof you can study anything you want on your own. As a matter of fact, in the process I discovered how to learn, how to teach, how to get a student conceptualize a topic, how to create knowledge, how to decolonize the minds of Africans. As I speak I've discovered a new subject called "unlearn" because everything we've learned in life is not always true. Unlearn will help address most of the world's problem like racism which started off as ignorance in Europe. This's a whole new story on it's own.
Let's leave it for another day. me likey ur story... Same way I taught myself English Literature in secondary school..(a commecrcial student 4dat matter). I think I'ld lyk to learn ur ''unlearn'' lemme knw whn u publish ur story.. Like I said b4...''me likey ur story'' |
