I pity you that is what you get when you want to be more western than the westerners. You were given a syllabus but because you want to be preach same sex marriage you went overboard.

Same sex marriage or union is a offence in Nigeria punishable by imprisonment. In some culture it is punishable by death.

You did not even limit your foolishness to lagos where you can get away with it cos people will think you will get over your dementia easily but you took it to Zaria.

A word of advise for you; Read between the lines and your interactions with those folks, Quit that job; take cover and change environment.

Learn from history so you can go far in life.

Stop preaching and teaching young minds same sex nonsense; you are indeed very lucky that non of the parents assaulted you .

taiwoawoniyi:
Your article was great. An awesome read.
Please paragraph to help our eyes.

I feel whenever you're in Rome, you should act like a Roman.
The north is a volatile place; introducing LGBTQ was kinda a stretch, because of their overly religious practices.

Thank God you didn't spark a riot tho.

fr3do:
The OP is out of touch with reality, this is Nigeria, obey the laws, respect the values.
We more pressing issues in the country.

calgaryFriend:

How is he out of touch, he taught what was in the syllabus.
You should not shy away from the fact that Ops post highlights how religion is keeping the North backward.

A female student stood up to defined marriage as a "union between a man and a woman". I asked the entire class to clap for her, given her very bold attempt. But to their bewilderment, I told the class that she was wrong after they were done clapping. Some of them even protested; inquiring why I adjuged her to be wrong.

dominique:


Stop trying to defend the indefensible and read the write up properly


The young girl gave the textbook definition of marriage and he told her she was wrong then went on to confuse the young minds with same sex marriage which is of no concern to them. He went off syllabus, confused young children and now he's trying to make it look like the northerners are intolerant because he's trying to "enlighten" them. Who sent him? I'm in Lagos, if any of my kids teachers fill my children's head with such garbage, I'll be in their school the next day to give him/her the lashing of their lives.

calgaryFriend:

... But the insinuation that he could have been assaulted shows how babaric the north is.

Boringdraw1:
first get the children before making all this noise(empty threat), you thing it that easy.

dominique:


He was not assaulted was he? Some Southerners could have assaulted him if their kids come home to tell them that they're being taught about same sex marriage. Is it not in the same south that gays are striped naked, beaten up and paraded on the street? That's not barbaric? We lynch petty thieves down south while the Northerners hand thieves over to the police. Let's remove the logs from our eyes before removing the specs from the eyes of others. The op wants to make the northerners look uncivilized but he failed woefully

The bolded shows that you are just an hypocrite.
The majority of Nigerians are savages and babaric but Northerners take that to a whole new level...

Boringdraw1:
Fabricated lies. Can someone run nysc and masters concurrently? NO

ugonology:
On all grounds and from every perception...you were wrong!
1)You went overboard in teaching outside the syllabus (although slightly) on a topic that is both socio-culturally and constitutionally illegal in Nigeria.

2) You raped the minds of those kid by exposing them to dark knowledge that they should never have been exposed to at this stage of their lifes. kids always want to try and experiment on new things, they are easily swayed by new concepts and ideologies (its like teaching them about abortion and its benefits or teaching a primary 6 pupil the uses of a condom and how to get one) they are too young and will most likely abuse such information.

3) it's not about religion or region, any responsible parent will be concerned that their young kids are being exposed to such sensitive topics as same sex marriage at a tender and fragile age, it's only important(if necessary) for them to know these things at the senior secondary levels or within the concrete walls of a higher institution.

Lastly, Am Igbo and a Christian, born and breed in Zaria...i will not tolerate such from any teacher myself because this is what has plunged the western world into identity crisis! You find a man telling you he thinks he ought to have been a woman or how his sex organs do not define his sexuality. It all starts from an early intimacy with these dark and absurd ideologies...and in no distant time their minds become impregnated with strange foreign vices! It's awkward and against all our religious and cultural norms and values.

Well, Am running a masters degree in ABU too, zaria is not as extremist as you are painting it. Hit me up, maybe I will show you around, and wash away your zunubi' with a few holy bottles

hab1234:
The op is not serious, how can you expose jss1 pupils to a criminal act. The principal should have reported you to the police...some people are writing nonsense,expose communism in an American school, and see what will happen.

It is clear you haven't lived in the North. I currently live in Zaria. They will lynch you for urinating close to their prayer ground. For the 4 years I have lived here, I have watched 3 thieves beaten to death, two thieves hands caught off based on sharia judgment, and I have seen a child rapist walk free. You think you know this people, then you are joking.

abdulazeez1002:
Why would a sane man urinate close to someone prayer ground Do you even think before you type.
No religious person would take it lightly with you. it's animals that can do such.

The thieves that are killed rarely in the North are those that steal bikes. And it's because they always kill the bike riders to carry their bike

I grew up in Zaria. In my whole life I have never heard someone hand was cut off. Not even in Zaria but in the entire North.


One of the greatest past time in Nigeria is blame game. We always want to blame something for our problems, especially things we don't understand, things we despise and whatever our clique for the moment swings towards for the blame game.

If the North is that bad as you are trying to paint it, why haven't you gone back to your homeland

Thats no fiction Musa, my ppriend.
Thats the reality of the system of education here in the North. Learn to tell yourself the truth even for once although your eyes have been covered by the things you deem unquestionable
