While I agree with some of the stated information, I cannot help but say that some of them are anecdotal.

I've been involved in a number of research projects, and I must say, we (Nigerians) are doing our best.

The last research project I volunteered on was on the study of insectivorous bats across different elevations on Afi and Obudu mountains in Cross River State.

My lecturer, who came from the USA won a number of research grants, and I must say, I've never ever in my life, seen the kind of equipments she bought upon Her arrival in Nigeria.

At the end of the project, we discovered that the population and/or diversity of bats on the mountain decreases as we ascend. Some of the findings will be published sooner rather than later (as the one shared is just a slice of the project).

But the big question is will our policy makers adhere to the suggestions and comments made in the article(s)?

If all of these are not tackled - by waking the government and policy makers from their dogmatic slumber, I'm afraid some folks will keep assuming that researchers (although not all) are squandering the research grants received.

Cheers


Publish it, then we’ll know you did your work and that it’s the government that’s lacking.

Every one wants to blame the asinine government.

Brother,

We have published a number of articles on the control of insect pests using alternative resources other than synthetic insecticides (raid et al) but our policy makers are seemingly not interested in indigenous innovations.

Consequently, I'm not just putting blames on the government, and I'm sure to an extent, that you can categorically validate and/or testify to the lackadaisical attitude of the government as regards to the utilization of indigenous creativity and innovation.

If you knew how drudgery research work can be, you'll even recommend for an all expenses paid holiday abroad for the lecturer to go chill after the conclusion of a research project.

There is nothing scary about research work unless one never had passion for it in the first place!
I hope you understand that drudgery and scary are not the same?

Just listen to yourself undecided

If u are tired of being a lecturer, why don't you quit?
Is this the way 'they do' in de developed world?

Lazy and corrupt minded people everywhere.
How can this country be better for goodness sake?

Nonsense.
Give us the same conditions they have in those your so-called developed worlds and see if you'll be saying same shit again.

Philip Emegwali comes to mind...

Illiterate dolts that educated you. I hope you understand that you are a product of your education?

You are not different from the SSANU President who went on strike for insufficient remuneration, but is now protesting in Abuja against academic staff...
