PoliticalWitch: Yes you are making erroneous arguments. Only you believe it takes 50% of tax revenue to fund public schools. It doesn't anywhere. Yes you have to raise taxes but they dont need to be over 15% tax to GDP. The OECD average is 36. That pays for the services you see. 1 Like

PoliticalWitch: The reason why Nigeria can't fund education is because they don't collect enough taxes. They don't even have correct statistics on the population Go and read what bill gates said about Nigeria. If education is not free, your society will become more criminal, no way for any upward economic mobility. 2 Likes |

Nigsrdumb: And if the quality of free education is poor...won't you still have the same old criminal issues. Either taxes rise...or subsidies are cut elsewhere. Facts is facts. |

GavelSlam: And our tax rate is 0-24%. Plus our revenue from oil is about what the UAE earns from oil...and the UAE has eleven million people. The government could remove fuel subsides and use the money to guarantee free education...but since it is poltically unpopular.... |

PoliticalWitch: Money is not the only reason why public schools are bad , it's the curriculum that needs to change. Maybe some sensible cosmetic changes in the school buildings. |

PoliticalWitch: u not being logical with this argument... u can't compare the system in a developed nation to a developing nation... compare Nigeria to another developing or emerging nation.... the first pathway towards economic prosperity is improved education attainment for majority of the population.... The above cannot be achieved by imposing school levies on students and their parents- those who can't afford it will simply stay away.... and the purpose will be defeated... travel to the north of this country and check whether those guys will be willing to pay for any entry fees as a requirement to send their wards to school... the rot in our education system isn't becos its free, its simply because the govt doesn't care.... what we need is change of attitude from govt to see education as a means to social and economic upward mobility irrespective of school fees.... many state govt universities are now as expensive as private ones, yet the rot remain...... most developing nations with low tax rate also offers free basic education to its citizens- even those without oil or proorer than Nigeria. |

PoliticalWitch:well we can argue on subsidies.... I'll understand, but not on education.... one of the key step Nigeria needs to take at this time, in order to lift millions out of poverty is free and compulsory practical basic education for its citizens especially for those below the poverty level..... My guy, education is key..... u need to visit far east nations and see the validity in the above phrase... 1 Like |

PoliticalWitch: The states and local governments can fund public schools themselves. They just need to collect the tax revenue necessary. The FG already does enough for states really. It's said 81% of Nigerians dont pay taxes. That's one issue that need to be addressed. Notice how most states dont collect 1% of GDP. I'm petty sure they could cover most of their own expenses with 5% tax to GDP. The monthly allocation would just be a bonus. 1 Like

PoliticalWitch: this is hyper sense. You know one thing I know about Africans is lack of long term effect. Public as at today, many of the teachers will not allow there children school there. Many politicians will not because of the low quality. If we want free edu. quality must give way for quantity. 3 Likes |

If education should be free then Nigerians are not suppose to pay for jamb and utme. Even the people who introduced us to education said “if you think education is expensive, try ignorance.” You see, they knew education comes at a price. It is valuable. It’s difficult to see serious students in Public schools. Not impossible, just difficult. 1 Like |

PoliticalWitch:where does Nigeria get $10b to spend on health? Check your figures I'm sure it's not more than $1b maximum $2b it's not a question of rich, we dont pay enough taxes....and i wouldnt want to pay for politicians to steal. 80-90% of govt revenue comes from oil and all we get from Oil in a year is about $25-30B |

SIRTee15:education can be free buh surely not compulsory. Human development is the right thing to look on to, this is one thing africa is the way it is. Learn to develop a child instead of forcing him to school. Imagine all those european footballers being forced to school instead of putting them up in football academy instead. Just imagine the unemployment saga they'd be suffering. School isn't the only place we learn. Africa is really not doing well when it comes to human development. |
