Army day secondary school , Benin: I Almost Cried When I Visited My Old School by Agness7(op):
Yesterday was the first time I would be seeing my former secondary school in over two years since I relocated from my former area.
To say I was shocked with what is left of the school is an understatement, it was an eyesore.
No teachers, no chairs, I almost shed tears.
Bushes has almost taken over the school, major part of the roof has been ruined, all the buildings are dilapidated.
Students sits on bare floor to learn, and it's a shame I learnt there are no teachers in the school that parents now employ and pay teachers through community efforts.
What is edo state govt doing? We didn't vote you guys to destroy our system.

This is Army day secondary school, ramat park, benin city. I finished my secondary education here in 2014.
It's sad students now learn on bare floor shocked cry

What should we do now? Contribute money to renovate it? You should go ask the school board some questions. E no concern Nairaland. Itchy fingers.

This is what IPOB is fighting against. This is what bad leadership has reduced Nigeria to.

And the painful thing is that the fools among us who collect 30k from these bad politicians would come here to defend their masters and even tag this thing to party.

They will say it's PDP, as if PDP is different from APC. Akpabio was in PDP but now in APC. Edo governor was in APC but now in PDP. FFK is now in APC. So, what makes PDP different from APC?

The fools among us will see this wickedness and remain mute, except it has to do with Ipob or igbos

Are you sure this is a command school because Command schools are administered by NAECS Nigerian Army Educational corps and there is no way any command in Nigeria would be in this state,Commands are party FG and NA funded too so I’m sure it can’t be this bad,is this solely a public school or a NA command school?

I'm sure one Fulani general in charge of the command school is embezzling the money meant for the running of the school for their jihad mission.

I know we might blame the government but have you asked what really happened and why the teachers refused teaching??

They might still be expecting salaries

if not govt who should we blame? The parents that are now employing teachers and making chairs by themselves?
There are currently no teachers in edo schools, most secondary schools in edo state now has just one principal and two teachers each. No chairs in most schools too.

Why can't you fix the school?
Does not have to be at once but piece by piece you can do it if it's something you're passionate about. You only have X amount of time to live, and sometimes the things that pain use are calls for us to act which time is still available. May passed by and didn't care, but you stopped and cared, so why not go all the way.


Nigerian government has told you who they are for 60+ years. No need arguing with them anymore.

wow, most secondary schools don't have chairs in your state? Just hearing this for the first time. Obaseki has refused to employ teachers in edo state, the whole education system from primary to tertiary has been completely ruined by the governor.
Haven't you seen students going with plastic chairs to school??
I see them here in pH.. even the school I was posted to teach during service at enugu same thing..
Re: Army day secondary school , Benin: I Almost Cried When I Visited My Old School by Wahalaperson: 12:27am On Oct 21, 2021
OP, why are you complaining, are you new in edo state?
The devil and obaseki are in a collaborative mission to cause pain, sorrow and anguish to the people of edo state and till obaseki completely accomplish this I believe he will never rest.
Foolish and useless governor

this is new to me, since I was born in the late 80s till now I have never seen students going to school with personal chairs in edo state till obaseki became a governor, maybe it's normal in other states but it was never a thing till the useless governor came .

Corruption has eaten up the government deeply in such a way that even if you contribute money to fix it, they will pocket it.

This school is pure evidence that Nigeria is swiftly going backward.

Billions are being channeled to education with nothing to show for it.

The old men leading this country are the worst set of Nigerians.

There is nothing we can say. A country where our vote doesn't count.
If we protest, they'll send hoodlums.

If we stay calm they will create a new rule so as to trigger our anger yet again. If we vote...

They've shut the doors in all areas of kicking them out.
