Baba lacks wisdom.

Peter Obi would have used out of school children instead of Almajiris their is just something off about it.

This and many more is the reason I have decided to align with the candidate of the people (Peter Obi).

I want a president that would listen to my pleas tomorrow not a president that would ask me to shut up.

I like how he said he would have a commission to find a solution

Almajiri issues can only be solved by Northerners, any attempt to create solutions without the inputs of the people won't work

The question here is,
Is almajri a menace to the northerners?
Is it a problem to the elites of the North?

Deception of the age.
What their leaders have refused to tackle is what you want to tackle.

She this baba dey whine us niiii. For the fact that you said you will tackle it, you have offended some people in the north. Cos almjiri is their heritage . Even Jonathan that built them schools was not appreciated.

You condemned GEJ’s efforts and after streams of rambling you could still proffer nothing different. What exactly is economic empowerment without education? What metrics are used to check/ track economic empowerment of a people?

I am yet to see a race so enmeshed in self hate ….. Tueh
One of the first things Gej pursued after gaining power was stopping the dredging of river Niger, because we'll, it's going to give the north some economic leverage, and his SS elite were against it (Edwin Clark).

Another thing, he overlooked the BH menace to start building so called almajiri schools, an average northerner considers it a very late intervention and whcih will do little to change what was in ground.

Major thing he failed to do, provide avenues for the north to explore it's resources and empowering the people economically, whatever intervention the govt does so long as endemic poverty and lack of economic activities are entrenched, it's paying lip service to the so called reforms.

Everything that GEJ was doing is now wat u are planning to do
God help ur gullible praise singers
U knew GEJ was doing the right thing but u joined hand to stop him and put the country on a standstill for 8yrs because u want to be president
God will never allow that happen
Under Gej, the north was a Killin field, much worse than it currently is.

"And based on the inability of the party to present a credible candidate for Nigerians is another reason why I took my decision as a concerned Nigerian. On this note, I resolved to resign my appointment as a member of the committee.”

Almost all northern states and even Abuja have IDP camps now
Farmers are chased away from their farms everyday.
Insecurity was only in the NE(zamfara and borno) then but now it has spread to NW(kaduna, sokoto etc), NC(benue, abuja, kogi, jos, Niger, Nassarawa) and theb the SE.
Even kaduna state gov El Rufai have said it countless times

Thank you for this Tinubu, Almajiris are one of the biggest problems we face now. This man knows the problem. Almajiris are the raw recruits of bandits, bokoharam and Iswap. God bless Nigeria.

As far as 2023 presidential election of the fed rep of Nigeria is concerned, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Asiwaju of Nigeria, the Jagaban of Africa, has no opponent.

I have never had confidence in the victory of any candidate in any election the way I have for the great Yekini Ogunlere Amoda of Iragbiji.

February is just few weeks from today, obituarists will learn the most bitter lesson of their miserable lives.

Many people down south don't know the history of Almajirci and how it came to be, how it was abused and what led to those abuses, Gej probably made the same mistake - in a typical Southerner's mind, it's shouldn't be there in first place.

To a northerner, its a system that worked well before certain factors led to its abuse -mostly economic and to some extent cultural, address those factors (esp economic), the people keep getting enlightened and the system would be transformed.

Right now, the Almajirci system is a insult on the north, right management of it would turn it to a spectacular system where people are made.

So, major thing, economic empowerment of the region, education should also be improved (Western and Islamic) over a long time and converting those almajiri schools into boarding schools like incorporating both Western and Islamic education. (Long term).

Immediate measure: clusters of these schools, taking off the kids off the streets and providing them with education, plus economic empowerment of the region and engaging stakeholders (scholars) to enlighten and disseminate information.

Without economic empowerment, most of these things will always come to naught.
Thought Buhari empowered you people for 8 years by placing hausas and fulanis in all juicy positions? what else do you want? GEJ did all you mentioned above but because of hatred, APC dismantled all he put in place.

The Almajiri problem will persist as long as a typical northerner values Islamic education above western education. There is no much difference between an average muslim up north and Boko haram members.
Re: Tinubu Pledges To Tackle Almajiri Problem In The North by reiddecuti: 7:25am On Jan 04, 2023
The Northern elite don't want that. Goodluck Jonathan tried it and the North ganged up against him.

Tinubu saying he will address the almajiri issue will be the biggest fraud, insincerity and scamming of the century.

Can you give specific ways/interventions on economic empowerment of the region?

Has almajiri become a problem now? I thought the Islam support it.

Nigerian politicians still hasn't fully understand the issue of Almajiri in the North. It is extremely difficult to abolish or even handled. Because it is a very old system of education since the dawn of Islam in the Northern Nigerian. It is an established institution for the purpose of gaining Islamic knowledge and discipline to enable a child grow and survive and become invulnerable to the harsh world. Millions of children are into it and several millions passed through it and millions will go through it. You will see Almajiri in every city and every village no matter small or remote in the North. I don't think it something politicians can handle. It is something akin to ideology in the minds of parents who send there children into it Nowadays the system seems to be become bastardized and corrupted version like everything else in Nigeria. If they can clean the system again fine. I think Babangida failed on this. Jonathan failed too for the so called Almajiri schools he established are like any other formal school because Almajiri system doesn't fit any formal or modern system. Almajiri system still strive. I myself did not agree with Almajiri system but this is the fact.
You understand the thing.
It's an ideology problem which is one of the greatest problems to tackle.
Only the poor northerners can proffer the solutions,the elites can only support them. Unfortunately, the solutions the poor will provide will dig a deep hole in the government's purse. They will want government to fund these almajiri mallams while the parents keep birthing the children. They simply want to shy away from responsibilities of parenting using seeking Islamic knowledge as an excuse. They feign ignorance of the fundamental obligations on parents as enshrined in Islam.

Preaching parenthood in Islam is the single most effective solution to the menace. In Islam It's a grave sin to born and not properly raise. This is what the mallams tend to downplay to the parents since they use the kids to their advantage (begging, political value etc)

There are poor people everywhere and if they need to beg, it'll be the parents doing the begging or at worst, with the kids. Not leaving preschoolers to fend for themselves. I have been moved to tears at the experiences of these kids, whose only sin was being born unlucky.

The middle class is almost non existent in the North. It's either you're rich or poor and education is that most effective bridge between those classes. A good number of the poor people embrace almajiri, the rest who don't, the government schools are grossly non functional. I have been in a state capital in the North where primary schools run shift due to lack of facilities. Like, some batch of children would go in the morning, some in the afternoon. A local said as a kid, the term he was grouped to the afternoon session, he wouldn't go because he would have been exhausted in the afternoon to start going to school. Think of what happens in the rural areas if this is obtainable in the capital.

Functional basic education is arguably the best the government can do to give the poor the opportunity to ascend the social ladder. Most Northern state governments aren't doing enough in this sector and it's from schools that these poor children can be aware of the duties of government and citizens, then demand their rights from the government.
