Smart school that students don't have their own tablets. British school in Abuja is a definition of Smart school

greatiyk4u:
➜The first question here is what exactly do you understand by the term SMART SCHOOL?......Just to find out if you have a different meaning of the word

Smart has nothing to do with what we have there in the picture. Let's start there.

Also, studies have revealed that keeping electronics out of the classroom may greatly benefit students more than having them do their work on tech tools.

I get that the governor is trying, but the people and parents should also stand and do better to ensure the success of projects. Whoever designed that classroom didn't do the best job as far as smartness is concerned. We have so many examples of what the classroom ought to look like to take ideas from. Having it look like a big concrete box with colorful painted walls, benches, and a TV on one side does not make for a smart classroom.

I love the environment.

But the interior, I have my reservations.

Let those who are elected to lead, lead well.

Imagine having this man as President of Nigeria just for 4 years

Earlier today, I accompanied the Honourable Minister of Education, Dr. Maruf Olatunji Alausa, CON, as he commissioned the Ogbo Central Smart School in Ipupe, Ubakala, Umuahia South LGA. This is the first of 20 Smart Schools to be delivered across the 17 Local Government Areas and three senatorial districts of Abia State.

The future belongs to societies that invest in knowledge, innovation and technology. That is why we are transforming public education into a technology-driven system that prepares our children not just to earn certificates, but to compete, innovate and lead in a rapidly changing world.

Each Smart School is equipped with interactive learning boards, tablets for pupils, trained teachers, a sick bay, modern security systems and a learning environment that promotes creativity, excellence and character.

Yesterday, we launched the Manufacturing Technology (Manu-Tech) University Innovation Pod (UniPod) at Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, with the support of the Federal Government, TETFund and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). Today, we commissioned a Smart School. Together, these investments reaffirm our commitment to building human capital as the engine of sustainable economic growth.

We continue to dedicate 20% of our annual budget to education through improved infrastructure, teacher recruitment and retraining, and our policy of free and compulsory basic education. Every child in Abia deserves the opportunity to dream, excel and succeed.

I urge parents, guardians, community and religious leaders to join us in shaping children of character and protecting these public assets. Anyone found vandalising school infrastructure or extorting pupils or parents will face the full weight of the law.

I thank the Honourable Minister for honouring us with his presence, and commend the Honourable Commissioner for Education, Goodluck Chinedu Ubochi, and his team for their dedication to this transformative project.

Tomorrow is the reward for the investments we make today, and together, we are building a brighter future for every Abia child.

School more beautiful than the ones in Europe.

No be only recoating existing roads leading to the capital city and lighting them up this one sabi.

This man and Tinubu start work the same time

The man just dey fire

The other just dey interested in reelection and nothing else

ECONOMY 0
SECURITY -100
INFRASTRUCTURE - Only Wike and Umahi dey save am

And he is seeking reelection.. for what exactly?

Toscarel:
unlike that scam peter mba is running in enugu in the name of 260 smart schools.

May b you need to be reminded that this same Lord and Saviour of yours that is now showcasing one school out of twenty claimed to have built 48 smart schools with N43B?

The internet does not forget or perhaps some of you have short memory.

Please is Ebonyi state social media aides to the governor, aware of all this goodies happening in Enugu,Abia and Anambra states about it's annual budgets for education, so as to inform the governor of Ebonyi state to do something great in education.

A bricklayer is in charge of ebonyi so we are not expecting much from there.

Funny gov. Built one school and said 20. Where are the locations of the 20 self? Audio 20 schools. Meanwhile there if I upload pictures of roofless and chairles schools in same Abia, everyone would be shocked. Let him post pictures of all Abia govt schools before we believe him.

Angellucifer:
This one never smart reach ooo, make Una try give each pupil a smart tab or put a smart tab on each table for learning convenience.

They should stop all this kind of seat arrangement using heavy iron for a smart class.

A smart class is usually interactive, below is what smart class arrangements usually looks like.

Show us the ones from your state.

The problems with public facilities and infrastructures in Nigeria is lack of maintenance culture.For instance,small pothole would set in in a road the appropriate agency of government that supposed to have rushed in to do the quick fix would continue to be lackadaisical about it until it became huge problem which demanded more money.

Thank you Sir! Very many times politicians with a solid and not shady background in the private sector perform better than the ones with a background in the civil service and a shady past supposedly in the private sector like Abubkar Atiku.

Man preparing himself for presidency 😁😁😁

Kobojunkie:
What in the world is smart about that school? Is it the paint on the wall? The TV in front of the classroom? The painted desks? The books in the bookshelves in what someone will now tell me is maybe the school library? What?

Before the usual suspects come attacking me, I am not against your governor or your showering him with praises, as that is the norm with all sorts of Nigerians. I am just against the lies we tell about these things. 😒

Must be the first time i read and agreed with you.

colizee:

What? By putting a TV and iron chair in a room and calling it smart?

This is really shocking in 2026. Or are the pictures poorly taken?

The same applies to the schools your breed also hail as smart schools courtesy of Tinubu. So don't even pretend to be the same nonsense!

Macphenson:
Another bad day for Yarimo. Alex Ottis keep peppering Yarimo with giant strides in governance and administration. Yarimo is wishing his state governor is doing half of what Alex Otti is doing.

we wish alex otti well
but Obi cannot even be senator

I love this man's spirit. I wish soludo could leave pride and who aloft petty professor and learn from men who have done and are doing the work.

Meanwhile, we don't really know yet what a smart school look like. This is not a smart school but a class with television.

Some of you are so dumb..... celebrating mediocrity, this is what local government chairmen are doing in Lagos.

Tolu school complex which comprises of 36 schools were converted to smart school by a local government chairman and new 21 football pitches built.

Iworo-Ajido, Badagry smart school was build from scratch by a local government chairman in badagry, you people should stop this your mediocre attitude.

What was shown in this post is nothing close to what is known as a smart school.

Some private schools own by ordinary Nigeria is even better than this thing you people call smart school.

Why build 20 smart schools for a few children instead of building regular schools and employing enough teachers for the free education of all children?

Is Alex Ottin not supposed to be a smart guy
Is he a balablu bulaba clueless clown like Tinubu who has less than 5% schools owned by government in his progreThief Lagos after 27 years of stealing the 100 times growth in state budget from forever increasing tax burden?

Oma39:
Impressive, this is pure governance not politics like the president and kogi governor is doing.

calm down and answer this question honestly abia state generate how to the fed govt but gets more allocations like all other states governors the president is doing his own well and Alex otti is the good example of a good governor hold ur governors responsible not the president

Is this how you respond to questions?

To you the Omniscient, what' makes a school, a SMART ONE...

The study is from who, where, when and for who exactly?

It's been long we heard from that state. I have always looked out for good news from there since NYSC took me there and I discovered how good the people were.

The last time I heard about that state was the governor displaying dance moves.

What is going on there, Ndi Onicha Igboeze?
