The solution is for him to start employing graduates as drivers. A minimum of MSC. While he specifically trains them.

This is the foolish thought of Nigerian Graduate- ENTITLEMENT MENTALITY. Even driver job, they should employ them and train them. I swear, our graduate just want to sit on people's head because they are graduates.

Royal Triple Dee School, Ibeju-Lekki, Lagos State is one of the most expensive private schools in Baba-Adisa, Ibeju-Lekki. From the outside, it looked prestigious, with a neatly painted buildings, and packaging. Parents believed that it was the best place to give their children quality education, so they enrolled their wards there — despite the high school fees, numerous levies, and extra charges for things like WAEC and BECE registration.

The school’s director, Mrs. Omolola Lawal, is a woman known for her love of money. She insisted on increasing tuition fees every term, and collected additional payments under various names: technology levy, development levy, exam preparation fee, even sanitation fee. Yet, inside the school, the reality was disappointing. My son who was doing well in studies started dropping in his performance. No seriousness in that school. It pains me after paying N130,000 per term excluding exam levy etc. I got no return for my money. My son is in SS2 now. He can't even simple algebraic expression, because the school don't have a Maths teacher. So, it is one Mr. Aliyu they use as a cover up for any subject teacher that left, not considering he is not qualified to teach that subject. Maths is just one of it. Physics is zero, Further zero. Majority of the Senior Students are more of art than Science. Just imagine!

The Director Mrs Omolola Lawal has a bad record for owning salaries. Most teachers leaves the school after staying just a team. Some leave even before the end of that same term. Even with a peanut salary, she still cannot pay. Is it that she doesn't have money to pay? Honestly that's not the case. From what I heard is that she leaves and own a building in one of the most expensive estate in Ibeju-Lekki, BEACHWOO ESTATE.

When it came to WAEC and BECE examinations, Mrs. Omolola had one mission — to ensure that all her students passed, whether they studied or not. She would call private meetings with the school principals and exam coordinators and instruct them directly:
"Make sure they all pass. Do whatever it takes. We cannot afford failure."

What followed was organized malpractice. Answers to exam questions were written on sheets of paper and distributed to students during the exam. Teachers were assigned to help the students cheat, either by whispering answers or writing them on the board . Some external supervisors were bribed. It became a well-planned system of cheating, just immediately her school was given the license to conduct WAEC and BECE examination.

Some teachers who were uncomfortable with the system tried to speak up, but they were either ignored or forced to leave. Others simply kept quiet to protect their jobs. The school continued to operate like this, year after year, growing in numbers but not in value.

To the public, Royal Triple Dee School looked like a successful institution. But inside, it was a place where education was traded for profit, and morals were sacrificed for results on paper.
