it's a matter of choice.

Re: Lagos Indian School Where Nigerians Are Denied Admission by babasolution: 6:42pm On Apr 23

It's not about enrolling in the Indian school that is the big issue,the symbolism of an exclusive school for Indians in a blackman country says alot but people don't understand these things

I know the Lagos Indian Language School at Ilupeju where Indians send their kids. There is a reason it is called INDIAN LANGUAGE SCHOOL and not Indian School because the kids are taught in Indian language.

I hope you know the school was created to cater to the needs of the kids of the Indian community at Ilupeju? I hope you know the language of instruction there is not in English language?

They created that school to imbibe the Indian culture in their kids that were born here and lived all their lives here so they still have that touch with their home base: INDIA

It's not everything we should complain about and run to social media without doing any credible research. All this because data is so cheap these days, smh

oga, forget all this your grammar. No school in Nigeria should exclude Nigerians admission in their own country. When the school is not inside their embassy. Under no condition is that acceptable.

Nigerians are so tribalistic to accuse others of racism.

Both are not mutually exclusive, no foreigner under any guise should discriminate in your home country, if it's in their country it's a different thing.

Nigerian major tribes are dumb as fck

This was how Apartheid started in South Africa and we all saw the result. Imagine a foreigner come to your house and now set aside one toilet for his own people and banned you from entering.

That goes to show that a lot of Nigerians are dull

Re: Lagos Indian School Where Nigerians Are Denied Admission by litaninja(m): 8:36pm On Apr 23

What about your fellow countrymen who refuse to rent / lease houses to nigerians in that same ilupeju? Na indian language house?

Re: Lagos Indian School Where Nigerians Are Denied Admission by litaninja(m): 8:37pm On Apr 23

If they can't interact with other cultures, let them remain in their home country now. How will you carry and migrate somewhere, then say you can't interact. What's the point of moving there

Jogs1900:

You've said it all
.I know the school too.Ilupeju has been Indians fortress for decades..They even have 2 shrines there...Indians are conservative and they find it difficult to interact with other cultures..You can't see an Indian wife working in Nigeria.Most of the students in that school will not further their education in Nigeria...They will go to India for their tertiary education...

Re: Lagos Indian School Where Nigerians Are Denied Admission by litaninja(m): 8:39pm On Apr 23

No child is born speaking any particular language. Any child sent to a school with a foreign language used for instruction will pick it up within months.
There's no excuse for said exclusion.

jaxxy:
Yes there are schools strictly for foreign students. Not just Indian school, there also German and Lebanese schools and that's fine based on the reason the school was created.

it's not about whites or race bt strictly for the country's expatriate kids in a foreign country so the language barrier and syllabus isn't a problem.

I think it's done this way cos these kids are only here cos their parents work in the country temporarily and can leave back to their country at anytime. They must be able to sync with their home country schools seamlessly.

it's not only done in Nigeria bt anywhere there's a large community of foreigners and they see need for specific education systems.

They are not studying or planning to write our waec, neco or jamb exams they write their home country exams.

Re: Lagos Indian School Where Nigerians Are Denied Admission by litaninja(m): 8:41pm On Apr 23

This is untenable.

CheapHomes1:
there are lot of indians in ilupeju and i think palmgroove area. its understandable the purpose of the school which is to provide indian education to the children of indian nationals. indians are very cultural people and I believe the school does not just teach western education but indian values and culture to the kids so that they dont loose touch with what being an indian is all about. Nigerians might not understand

YOUR angle to the school situation exonerates the management of any wrongdoing because it's basically useless for the local who wouldn't understand a word should s/he enrol in.
Infact, there may, as a result, come up a legal case against them if any local had registered only to realize activities there are extremely tilted towards Indians language, culture and norms. Such parent/guardian would feel cheated and demand adjustment or refund because the ward/child won't get along in anything.

Wrong!
There are many Nigerians study Chinese at the Confucius Institute in UNILAG.
Same for French language schools.

What if there are Nigerian children whose parents want to have Indian-style education and language, should they be denied even in their country?

This sort of nonsense can only happen in Nigeria. Foreigners subduing, relegating, alienating and even exploiting you in your country.

There is always a senseless Nigerian defending rubbish whilst trying to sound smart. You are a foolish person.

Didn't you read where it was stated that to gain admission to the school, you must have an Indian passport as opposed to being fluent in Hindi? A Nigerian returnee from India won't be able to enroll his Hindi-speaking children in the school if he doesn't have an Indian passport. Doesn't this reek of racism? Do you think all Indians speak Hindi? There are Indians who do not speak Hindi but Malayalam, Urdu, etc. as their first language. The policy isn't just racist against Nigerians but against other Indians who do not speak Hindi.

English is our official language. It also has official language status in India. Why bring your kids to an English-speaking country and enroll them in a school where they are taught in Hindi? How are they supposed to learn English so they can interact with other Nigerians?

It's like taking your kids to the UK and enrolling them in a school where they are taught in Yoruba. How are they supposed to learn English to enable them to integrate with the host country?

That is how some Nigerians are defending the Chinese supermarket that bars Nigerian shoppers in Abuja. Are you guys cursed?

Re: Lagos Indian School Where Nigerians Are Denied Admission by litaninja(m): 2:33pm On Apr 24

There is no valid reason sir. The school needs to be open to all without discrimination of any sort. If its an indian language school, you send your ward there if you want them to imbibe the indian language, culture and curriculum.

If i go to an hausa market, i'm going to look for hausa related items or ingredients. I won't get there to ask for igbo spices.

Simple.

U seem to be confused. Its not a French or Indian language leaning school. It has its own curriculum which isn't for Nigeria. It is specific for kids from a particular country. Lebanese or British can't go there.

I don't know what Nigerians are crying about. Once the expatriates or foreign community leaves that school will be shut down cos it serves no purpose.

Re: Lagos Indian School Where Nigerians Are Denied Admission by rationalhuman(m): 2:57pm On Apr 24

And they do have.

AAADE:

Thanks my brother. We are just being hypocrite and shameless in this country. Why are we even pursuing Indian school when we have thousand of Nigerian school in our country.We are definitely telling them that they have standard above us.

Re: Lagos Indian School Where Nigerians Are Denied Admission by rationalhuman(m): 3:05pm On Apr 24

There are hundreds of schools in Canada, UAE, Saudi, Qatar and across middle east, Sri Lanka, uk and USA, Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda etc Hundreds, They prefer their own Set Schooling Standard system and no wonder they are reaping fruits from it.

The questions you should ask yourself is, does this happen in other countries or just in Africa?
And the answer is no, the Indians in Canada, uk and Us are 20 times more than the ones in Nigeria yet they did not do this over there. So why here?

Re: Lagos Indian School Where Nigerians Are Denied Admission by litaninja(m): 3:53pm On Apr 24

There's absolutely no confusion.
If i see an indian school in my home country and i take a fancy to having my child train there, indian language, curriculum, culture and all, then i can send them there. Anything otherwise, cannot be allowed.

We know exactly what it is. We also know where it is. In Nigeria. They cannot discriminate during admissions.

Simple.

The question is about discrimination. Do they reject admissions from other nationalities? This can never happen but only in Nigeria
