WE CAN BE BETTER





It really started way back (1914) when Britain purposely lied to themselves and to the few they were able to deceive about creating a nation
Its 103 years now and we are still trying to define "one nation"
People actually think Nigeria is 57.
No, that’s our "supposed" independence anniversary
As for one Nigeria?
There was never One Nigeria
We are not ONE (this is the truth, some amongst us know but shockingly want to deny)
The British came and met separate autonomous entity with distinct historical background
But they chose to join two opposing fragment of magnets,
It can't join, naturally! But they used a magnet of deception which will in no time lose it strength because the fragments remains opposite sides.
What were they thinking when they did this?;they were not actually thinking to begin with.
They just had to do things according to how easy it was for them.
they are referred to as "Great Britain" but actually that is just a facade to cover their weaknesses.
They actually were a result of opposite fragments also through several "Acts of Union" that joined them together ( Act Of Union;1532-1545 that combined Welsh with Britain(Act of Union 1707 that combined Scotland with Britain) ( Act Of union 1800 passed by both parliament of Britain and Ireland to form united kingdom) hence, England(English land)
However, It is not surprising to me that SCOTLAND was asking for INDEPENDENCE.
Although, GREAT BRITAIN they are referred to, but ONE BRITAIN they are not because if you ever need a case study for "Same but different "? The varieties of English you will find in Britain is the right case.
So much for a "UNITED" KINGDOM right?
This method doesn't seem to work well with people who never had things in common.
Taking India as an example who even happen to at least have few things in common: several entities have broken away from them because of clash of opinion(s) (PAKISTAN, BANGLADESH, NEPAL...now they are currently dealing with Kashmir as does Nigeria with Biafra)
But Nigeria! (a kind of mistake unknown to science yet)
In Nigeria, we owe more of our allegiance to our root(Ethnicity)  not the Country .
We don't even have similar tongues within a tribe.
If anybody does something extra ordinary,
People will be like:
It was a Yoruba Man who did this
It was an Igbo man who did that
An Hausa was the one that designed greatest car
We all want to promote our tribes/ETHNICITY, that is where our "NATIONALISM” lies (in what we had naturally) And not a forcefully imposed entity called Nigeria
And as long as we are not from the same root, we don't want to see others doing it better than us
In Nigeria,
We are like Crabs in a basket
The Reason we are not Leaving The Spot Called
"Developing Country " In Fact if Care is not taken, we will be reverted back to "Under developed"
That is if that is not our situation already.
Unlike other Underdeveloped Countries who has now attained the position of a "Developed " Country
Then there is the issue of...
BIGOTRY: THE reason Behind All ATROCITIES. Who is a Bigot? A Bigot is one who Is Obstinately or Intolerantly devoted to his or her own Opinion or prejudices i.e. A person who is strongly partial to one's own Group, Race, Religion or Politics and is intolerant of those who differ and This Is not the definition Of a social animal.
So, Is There a Sector where people don't make noise about "Superiority"? Ok You telling someone: My race is better than yours, My Tribe is Better than yours, My School is Better than yours, My State is better than yours, My Religion is better than yours, My State Education is better than yours, My Language is better than yours, My People are more influential than yours, my people are braver than yours .Oh kay; why don't you get all these "my my Noise" together and feed yourself alone with it because the person you telling feels the same way about His/herself So when telling them, what were u expecting? An "Oh! You know you are right🤔" Because where is the sense in imposing opinion!? Which you alone share? |I don't understand, you expect that person not to say something clashing with your opinion? And when they defend what they believe in, you feel offended? Where is your sense of reasoning to remember that every individual has an innate devotion to what they hold DEAR (Nationalism)You feel you are better. Check within yourself, does your way of thinking  make you better? You feel your Clan are mostly good, and No bad .
 And the next is all bad and No good? Well, am Sorry that am not Sorry to inform you that The Clan in Question feels the same way about you. You feel the world or a Nation is doomed without your people, others also Believe their people are great. Hence: (Clash of opinions) "Every Mansion has a servant entrance" Therefore every Living Entity has a strong Point and where they lack and whichever faction you belong to is not an exception (There is a reason humans are referred to as social animal but in a case where you think the world is doomed without your people that's the juncture where you lose the humanity in you and become a mere animal" There should Be a part in a Bigot's Brain that should tell him that, this world is a World of Varieties and their own opinion is just a particle of sand out of Thousands  Beach Sand.
And
TO THE TWO FORCES CLAIMING 561 INTELLIGENCE QUOTIENT IN NIGERIA
INTELLECT IS NOT ETHNIC/RELIGION INDUCED
First Professor Of History>Kenneth onwuka Dike
First Professor of Mathematics >Chike Obi
First Professor of Law-Taslim Olawale Elias
First Professor of Medicine>Adebayo O. Ogunlesi
(No one is all-knowing or dumb after all)
If u feel your tribesmen is the most important, I will like to tell you once again
There is a Servant entrance in every Mansion.
If there wasn't, a Particular Clan will be Bagging  all the Honors
But Alas! The achievement was for Them not your tribe/Religion
They were not thinking about You and your Insensitive sentiments when they were sitting for those exams
The Question is;
What Extraordinary thing have "YOU" done?
Isn't your Tribe suppose to be a Direct Descendant of Einstein and Polymath?
But you are not even up to an half inch of those examples of great people you are boasting of in your tribe,Does that mean You are the Other Useless Percent of that Tribe Intelligence you are so PROUD about?
SO...
Calm down
And be humble
 What's that Slang again? (Everybody Na king for im. Lane)The world would have been a better place if everyone is minding their own businesses, keeping there "MyMynoise" to Their selves instead of trying to shove it down another's throat " A person can keep his saliva in his mouth just to reach where he can spit it out, but u don't expect him to keep yours in his mouth for a second" You Should know "you alone Sells and Buy your "Opinion".
Another common sense quote says "No man is an island of knowledge " but Bigots don't know this simply because they have moved from Evolution Of being a social and Higher animal To Mere animal (not even all mere animals acts irrationally and think of their selves only but all Bigots do)
In Nigeria we don't copy things rightly, we go upside down in all our adaptations
THE POLITICAL SYSTEM:
Our Federal system is so rigid, it makes me wonder
If our colonial master is practicing it the same way
(which they are not)
 Presidential system which was copied from United States of America?
We are not doing it right(the u.s government has the Vice President also as the senate president, Nigeria has "vice president, senate president, deputy senate" all offices occupied by different individuals, hence extra expenses
Election?: total sham , People are either voting For Tribe or Religion and not the Ideology and benefits The party Will bring.
Our Electoral Culture has been Devoured By Primordial Ties Towards the individual even if we know deep down that he/she may not be capable.
The "Let My Person Sha be there" Mantra is always going on in our heads.
Then The fight of Population and Marginalisation starts
Election in Nigeria is a Moment to show legal Hatred towards others who have different ideologies from you,ideas such as (Religion,Tribe,Ethnicity etc)
An Avenue To go Violent and Radical
Why don't we leave all this Western Induced System and Cut our Yam in Line with the size our Mouth can take and not the size that will tear it up
Constitution : Our Constitution is not even going in line with our system of government, most of its provisions are just theories and not practicable.
It's provisions screams "Unitary system" while
We are SUPPOSINGLY practicing Federalism
The constitution is a product of men in khaki(Military)
So how does that show the interest of the populace
The biggest lie in the preamble? "We the people.."
How many people? It seems few military men can now represent and know the needs and want of the people.
Our Constitution is just a legal book but not legitimate
EDUCATION : Which was Chipped into our system from the Western World?
Nigeria is not doing it right!
The education system in the UK is divided into four main parts, primary education, secondary education, further education and higher education. Children in the UK have to legally attend primary and secondary education which runs from about 5 years old until the student is 16 years old.

The education system in the UK is also split into "key stages" which breaks down as follows:

Key Stage 1: 5 to 7 years old
Key Stage 2: 7 to 11 years old
Key Stage 3: 11 to 14 years old
Key Stage 4: 14 to 16 years old
Generally key stages 1 and 2 will be undertaken at primary school and at 11 years old a student will move onto secondary school and finish key stages 3 and 4.

Students are assessed at the end of each stage. The most important assessment occurs at age 16 when students pursue their GCSE's or General Certificate of Secondary Education. Once students complete their GCSE's they have the choice to go onto further education and then potential higher education, or finish school and go into the working world.

My overview of the education system in the UK is divided into five main sections:
Primary Education
Primary education begins in the UK at age 5 and continues until age 11, comprising key stages one and two under the UK educational system. Please visit the British Council page for more information on primary education.

Secondary Education
From age 11 to 16, students will enter secondary school for key stages three and four and to start their move towards taking the GCSE's - learn more about secondary education in the UK and what it will involve. Primary and secondary education is mandatory in the UK; after age 16, education is optional.
Potentials are considered everything doesn't lie on CGPA unlike Nigeria who see education as the ultimate heavenly goal therefore it defines the students worthiness
Likewise, Scotland similar situation
Home schooling is even regarded as part of educational stages

Further Education
Once a student finishes secondary education they have the option to extend into further education to take their A-Levels, GNVQ's, BTEC's or other such qualifications. UK students planning to go to college or university must complete further education.

Higher Education
Probably the most important subject area on this site, this explains more about the higher education system in the UK and how it works for international students. Most international students will enter directly into the UK higher education system, after completing their home country’s equivalent to the UK’s “further education

Education in Finland
Education in Finland is an education system with no tuition fees and with fully subsidised meals served to full-time students. The present education system in Finland consists of daycare programmes (for babies and toddlers) and a one-year "pre-school" (or kindergarten for six-year-olds); a nine-year compulsory basic comprehensive school (starting at age seven and ending at the age of sixteen); post-compulsory secondary general academic and vocational education; higher education (University and University of applied sciences); and adult (lifelong, continuing) education. The Finnish strategy for achieving equality and excellence in education has been based on constructing a publicly funded comprehensive school system without selecting, tracking, or streaming students during their common basic education.Part of the strategy has been to spread the school network so that pupils have a school near their homes whenever possible or, if this is not feasible, e.g. in rural areas, to provide free transportation to more widely dispersed schools. Inclusive special education within the classroom and instructional efforts to minimize low achievement are also typical of Nordic educational systems.
After their nine-year basic education in a comprehensive school, students at the age of 16 may choose to continue their secondary education in either an academic track (lukio) or a vocational track (ammattikoulu), both of which usually take three years and give a qualification to continue to tertiary education. Tertiary education is divided into university and polytechnic (ammattikorkeakoulu, also known as "university of applied sciences") systems. Universities award licentiate- and doctoral-level degrees. Formerly, only university graduates could obtain higher (postgraduate) degrees, however, since the implementation of the Bologna process, all bachelor's degree holders can now qualify for further academic studies. There are 17 universities and 27 universities of applied sciences in the country.
DAYCARE
In Finland, high quality daycare and nursery-kindergarten are considered critical for developing the cooperation and communication skills necessary to prepare young children for lifelong education, as well as formal learning of reading and mathematics. This preparatory period lasts until the age of 7.
To foster a culture of reading, parents of newborn babies are given three books - one for each parent, and a baby book for the child - as part of the "maternity package". According to Finnish child development specialist Eeva Hujala, "Early education is the first and most critical stage of lifelong learning. Neurological research has shown that 90% of brain growth occurs during the first five years of life, and 85% of the nerve paths develop before starting school (NB: at the age of seven in Finland). "Care" in this context is synonymous with upbringing and is seen as a cooperative endeavor between parents and society to prepare children physically (eating properly, keeping clean) and mentally (communication, social awareness, empathy, and self-reflection) before beginning more formal learning at age seven. The idea is that before seven they learn best through play, so by the time they finally get to school they are keen to start learning.
Early childhood education is not mandatory in Finland, but is used by almost everyone. “We see it as the right of the child to have daycare and pre-school,” explained Eeva Penttilä, of Helsinki’s Education Department. “It’s not a place where you dump your child when you’re working. It’s a place for your child to play and learn and make friends. Good parents put their children in daycare. It’s not related to socioeconomic class”.
SYSTEM
Schools up to the university level are almost exclusively funded and administered by the municipalities of Finland (local government). There are few private schools. The founding of a new private comprehensive school requires a decision by the Council of State. When founded, private schools are given a state grant comparable to that given to a municipal school of the same size. However, even in private schools, the use of tuition fees is strictly prohibited, and selective admission is prohibited, as well: private schools must admit all its pupils on the same basis as the corresponding municipal school. In addition, private schools are required to give their students all the education and social benefits that are offered to the students of municipal schools. Because of this, existing private schools are mostly faith-based or Steiner schools, which are comprehensive by definition.

Teachers, who are fully unionized, follow state curriculum guidelines but are accorded a great deal of autonomy as to methods of instruction and are even allowed to choose their own textbooks.

Classes are small, seldom more than twenty pupils.From the outset pupils are expected to learn two languages in addition to the language of the school (usually Finnish or Swedish), and students in grades one through nine spend from four to eleven periods each week taking classes in art, music, cooking, carpentry, metalwork, and textiles. Small classes, insisted upon by the teachers' union,appear to be associated with student achievement, especially in science. Inside the school, the atmosphere is relaxed and informal, and the buildings are so clean that students often wear socks and no shoes. Outdoor activities are stressed, even in the coldest weather; and homework is minimal to leave room for extra-curricular activities.In addition to taking music in school, for example, many students attend the numerous state-subsidized specialized music schools after class where for a small fee they learn to play an instrument as a hobby and study basic solfège and music theory using methods originated in Hungary by Kodály and further developed by the Hungarian-born Finn Csaba Szilvay and others.

Reading for pleasure is actively encouraged (Finland publishes more children's books than any other country). Television stations show foreign programs in the original languages with subtitles, so that in Finland children even read while watching TV.

During the first years of comprehensive school, grading may be limited to verbal assessments rather than formal grades. The start of numerical grading is decided locally. Most commonly, pupils are issued a report card twice a year: at the ends of the autumn and spring terms. There are no high-stakes tests.

Grades are awarded on a scale from 4 to 10. In individual exams, but not on school year report or basic education certificate, it is also possible to divide the scale further with '½', which represents a half grade, and '+' and '–', which represent one-fourth a grade better or worse. For example, the order is "9 < 9+ < 9½ < 10– < 10". The grade '10+' can also be awarded for a perfect performance with extra effort by the student.

If a comprehensive school pupil receives a grade of 4 for a particular subject at the end of the spring term, they must show that they have improved in the subject by sitting a separate examination at the end of summer term. If the pupil receives multiple failing grades, they may have to repeat the entire year, though it is considered far preferable to provide a struggling student with extra help and tutoring. In the rare case where a student needs to repeat, the decision is made by the teachers and the headmaster after interviewing the pupil and the parents.

Comprehensive school students enjoy a number of social entitlements, such as school health care and a free lunch every day, which covers about a third of the daily nutritional need.In addition, pupils are entitled to receive free books and materials and free school trips (or even housing) in the event that they have a long or arduous trip to school.

The focus for kindergarten students is to “learn how to learn”, Ms. Penttilä said. Instead of formal instruction in reading and math there are lessons on nature, animals, and the “circle of life” and a focus on materials- based learning.
Upper secondary education begins at 16 or 17 and lasts three to four years (roughly corresponding to the last two years of American high school plus what in the USA would be a two-year Community or Junior College). It is not compulsory. Finnish upper secondary students may choose whether to undergo occupational training to develop vocational competence and/or to prepare them for a polytechnic institute or to enter an academic upper school focusing on preparation for university studies and post-graduate professional degrees in fields such as law, medicine, science, education, and the humanities. Admissions to academic upper schools are based on GPA, and in some cases academic tests and interviews. For example, during the year 2007, 51% of the age group were enrolled in the academic upper school.

The system, however, is not rigid and vocational school graduates may formally qualify for a university of applied sciences or, in some cases, university education; conversely, academic secondary school graduates may enroll in vocational education programs. It is also possible to attend both vocational and academic secondary schools at the same time. Tuition is free, and vocational and academic students are entitled to school health care and a free lunch. However, they must buy their own books and materials.

Upon graduation, vocational school graduates receive a vocational school certificate. Academic upper secondary school graduates receive both secondary school certification and undergo a nationally graded matriculation examination (Finnish: Ylioppilastutkinto). This was originally the entrance examination to the University of Helsinki, and its high prestige survives to this day. Students in special programs may receive a vocational school certificate and take the matriculation examination (kaksoistutkinto) or all of the three certifications (kolmoistutkinto). Approximately 83% of the upper academic school students, or 42% of the age group, complete the matriculation examination.

Polytechnic institutes require school certification for admission, whereas the matriculation examination is more important in university admissions. However, some tertiary education programs have their own admission examinations, and many use a mixture of both.
ADVANCED CURRICULA
In relation to mathematics, the second national language and foreign languages, a student can choose to study a curriculum from different levels of difficulty. Students choose their relevant levels at the beginning of school, when selecting appropriate courses, and at the end of school, when registering for the matriculation exam in order to receive the relevant exam paper. These two choices are not directly linked, but students generally keep the level the same for the matriculation exam. One common exception to this rule of thumb occurs when a student has barely completed a higher level course and is unsure of their performance in the matriculation exam. In those cases, a student may elect to take an easier exam.

In mathematics, the advanced level is in practice a prerequisite for the more competitive university science programs, such as those of the universities of technology, other university mathematical science programs, and medicine.In mathematics, 20% of the matriculation examinees take the advanced level.The nationwide matriculation exam together with entirely percentile-based grading provides an easy way to objectively classify each student based on their mathematical ability, regardless of the year when the exam was taken. For example, assuming that the best mathematical students are selected first to the upper academic school and then to the advanced mathematics curriculum, the students achieving laudatur would comprise the mathematically best 0.4% of the age group, comparable to 800 SAT mathematics section. The percentile equality does not, however, mean that the absolute level of a laudatur student in the advanced mathematics in Finland is equal to that of an 800 SAT student in the USA, due to differences in the mean quality of the population.


In poland:
A university in particular " tischner European university "
This institution's strategy is close to that of Finland’s way
In examination, students are allowed to write on what they know that was not asked in the examination questions
60% attention is given to practical aspect and student's personal understanding of a course
Not just theory! Theory!! Theory!!! And mindless memorization of our lecturer's textbook
It is not by coincidence that a character who was designed to be a chronic mindless MEMORIZER (Chatur) in the Bollywood MOVIE (3 idiots) was said to have spent his primary and secondary life education in Africa(what were they trying to pass along?)
Examination hall arrangement:
More often than not students are allowed normally, they even want to test how intelligent a student can be to refurbish what he/she has copied.
Some courses allow the use of textbook during the examination
Let's come down to our dear "forcefully imposed on us country" (reason why we are doing everything aggressively)
The competition starts from year 1(jelosimi=Let the house rest) known as Kindergarten for formal purpose(s), that's were the PRESSURE starts from because grading comences
Home Schooling Happens only when it involves
Brutal Home work from the teacher.
HIGHER EDUCATION
There are Several  forms of Pre-HigherLevel Entrance  Examinations, it's like each body is in a
Personal competition, a competition where the consideration of the students writing them are not likely considered
Cruel marking scheme with un-dedicated Markers
Who are only interested in the money and Hotel Treatment
Any gesture as little as turning necks rewards 20marks DEDUCTION (so much for the country that loves each other and The Education Planners that tells us "You are like our Children" , whose most child are
Not even schooling in Nigeria and if by chance they are, it will surely be a school exclusively for their cabal.
ENCOURAGEMENT AND MEASUREMENT OF
CAPABILITY :
Students intelligence are restricted to the six questions the examiner is going to ask in fact question one might be bagging 150 marks.
Maybe the student's strength is actually located in the part of the syllabus the lecturer didn't even touch in the questions
Then that student automatically becomes a dullard(?)
That's not the end,
Our law course here in Lagos state university (lasu) for example is five (5) good years! Plus law school =six (6) years
Almost all the years the student is suppose to be building his or her potential(s)
Then after graduation a Nigerian employer will be asking a student of 26 years for 30 years of experience
  has the student been studying since he/ she was a zygote?
No doubt, the employer(s) is indirectly telling us "Nigerian youth(s) are unemployable after almost fourteen years of leaving our lives pursuing the societal DUTY (education)
The secret of the developed country is their undivided attention towards education.
Any developed country you can think of, education is surely their power point and that's the sector in which Nigeria is crude about.
We need to do things right
We need to apply systems that best suit us, and if we want to adapt, we need to do it correctly
It is So Saddening When Nigerian Lecturers Happily Tell Their Student "To get into University Of Ibadan is Harder than Harvard"
Why does it have to be so? (This Origin of Western Education is not even Nigeria)
Must their Be Hardship just to Prove Success when one can Simply Do things which are meant to be simple in a simple way
So if it was hard for "Them" during their era
must it be Hard for the rest of the generation ?
in that case, students are left with seeing hardship as a measurement for success or even as one of the good criteria to spot a good university
a situation where students starts having arguments like ‘’mtcheew! see this one, na U.I hard pass’’, ‘’come to LASU if you think U.I is hard’’
Then There is The Issue Of a State having just 2 or 3 Universities whereby a university will be having
61,000 students.
How do we expect Lecturers to mark scripts with optimum scrutiny and attention? When he has about 2000 Theory Scripts to mark?
Imagine a Situation where a State has 40 Universities? And Entrance Mode is not made to be a Draculian Task? Where all that is required is the adequate capabilty and percentage and where students are only about 10,000? Where Lecturers aren't bombarded with scripts .
But in a situation where they are bombarded with it,they have no choice than to Play with a student's Life when Laziness sets in
(This a "DREAM" I hope can come true in my lifetime.
If not during my schooling time, at least for those coming behind me) because NIGERIAN EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM is a curse I wouldn’t want to place on anyone.
the only set of people who are going to be bias about this obvious truth are the 1% that either didn’t school in Nigeria or those who gained scholarship out of the incompetence of the system because I don’t believe in ‘’ONE’’ over all best student in a university;the rests are what? back up singers? at least we hear of  news where students that graduates with lower grades in Nigeria gets the upper hands abroad
PROFESSOR WOLE SOYINKA is the popular example of that. this routine has been injurious to The Nigerian development as individual’s intelligence and capabilities is based on his/her academic profile in which one of his/her low marks might have been a mistake on the lecturer’s part and those who their academic profile pronounced a guru might have been sheer luck(not all situations but at least 6 out of 10)
I Feel An Individual's "INTELLIGENCE " shouldn't be Based on "WESTERN EDUCATION " to a very LARGE extent as Nigeria Treats it
In fact, according to UNESCO : “Youth” is best understood as a period of transition from the dependence of childhood to adulthood’s independence and awareness of our interdependence as members of a community. Youth is a more fluid category than a fixed age-group.

However, age is the easiest way to define this group, particularly in relation to education and employment. Therefore “youth” is often indicated as a person between the age where he/she may leave compulsory education, and the age at which he/she finds his/her first employment
It seems despite our "INDEPENDENCE " we are still enslaved by their "SOFT POWER".
It is not by magic that, According to us Anybody who doesn't have a WESTERN EDUCATION Is automatically an ILLITERATE , Many People Who Claim "We don't Build Our Culture" Have already been enslaved By this Ideology Unconsciously
"An individual can sure smoke his/her garri with a ruler, no one will blame him/her or scold such individual, but the individual will know optimum satisfaction when he/she uses the right TOOL (spoon)"
We can see from various education system of these westerners that formal education is a PLUS= we know there is an intelligence in there we cherish TRY including a formal education , but here in Nigeria, it is MUST= to hell with your inner intelligence, you've not seen the four corners of a university equals you are worthless
Students in Nigeria are treated like PRESSURE COOKER who are expected to act like PROGRAMMED ROBOT
(anything you know outside the SYLLABUS is your own cup of tea, just give me back the marking scheme and you are a SCHOLAR)
Then after a Nigerian "Youth" must have gone through the pain of performing his/her societal duty
(Western Education) , there is now the ultimate crime of comparing him/her to an Hoodlum
Because whenever a political fight erupts the "Supposed" elders blames the "Youth" and it gets
Me wondering what is their definition of YOUTH?
The ones who chants "Baba oh! Behind politicians and sleeps in the streets smoking marijuana? Or the ones who are under Pressure to write the next impromptu test and doesn't even have time for campaigning for their freedom let aside a politician?
Why do they(the supposed elders) keep interchangeably translating the meaning of Hoodlum for the Ideal Youth?
Maybe  they needed to point fingers to clear their own faults?
Or maybe  most of them are just Kleptocrats and not democrats? Who needs to
Find an excuse as to why they think the leadership of nigeria is their inherited title or birthright
We all should amend and help Each other
Instead of dragging each other down in all aspects
(because, I FEEL the way the Nigerian education is being practiced, it is designed to waste the potentials of the YOUTHS and delay their PROGRESS)
Because if we don't help each other, nobody will do it for us.
Not even the several Foreign relations we involve in because those are just GAME THEORY (and this connotes both parties doing things for their own interest)
Western Education didn't originate from Nigeria,
and if we want to COPY then we have to do it RIGHT
ECONOMY:
A Nigerian's Greatest Opportunity to make money is any slight economic crisis, as at present :Recession is The reason Why "Ewedu" is Costly.
That shouldn't even be a problem again right? People are living fine with that kind of situation already
But in a situation where if we don't see "Made in China" on a product then that product isn't  valid
We the people have rendered the productive minds we have in nigeria Hopeless and worthless so they have no choice but to become a Duplicate of High rank Company so as to sell their ideas
This situation gave birth to "Toomy hillfinger" in place of Tommy Hilfigher, "Pamu" in place of Puma"
NokLa in place of Nokia, Nika in place of "Nike
"Adibas" in place of Adidas,In reality we all buy this products thinking it is the actually producer,we were captivated by its perfection and beauty until we realize the difference.
Then what comes next? "Disappointment "
We have forgotten the effort and Intelligence used in Creating these products, If they had given it their Brand name; would you have patronized?
The case of Economy Starts from The People
Because Normally a States Politics and Economy are seen as Separate entities which only need each other's help To grow.
But, What makes up both? (The People)If Nigeria wants to survive another century then we need a strategy!
When I say strategy, rule revolution out! For that to happen we need unity/willingness/goal and plan among people who are organizing it, we don't have all this as at present in Nigeria
Of cause, there are people who want a state of their own and there are people within those who are seeking freedom who doesn't want the secession to happen and we all know an enemy to a progress from the inside always lead to a downfall of a plan over and over, so if by any form of chance we want the survival of nigeria
 I Edu Ziyadah  Oluwafunmilola will suggest Regionalism/True Definition of Federalism! Where each entity(region) in nigeria grow at its own pace with its own resources, with the form of government that suits each region(monarchy ,confederalism ,parliamentary any form),then if any of them wish to help the other at their own will with their own agreements, let it be.
A country Where each NATION (person) in this farce called a nigeria won't be confused as to where their allegiance lies (either with the country or Ethnicity)
Where each nation will realize everybody is created side by side and that there is no ultimate superior, where they will all realize where they lack and where their strength lies, so nations who have pride can lower their ego and ask for help with humbleness.
(Now that is the real ordained definition of "unity in diversity")
Not a situation where people who don't even have to quarter of contribution in the nations development will be bagging the highest reward because of population then the real contributors will be lagging because of paucity of population (The cruelty called democracy and federalism)even the people who created Nigeria isn't practicing this form of federalism!

ABSTRACT
The British have gone have gone,and left a Ticking Time Bomb Called Nigeria In our Hands.
They have joined opposing forces who are seeing each other as PEST, ENEMIES, HINDRANCE and we all by any means want to break away from this forced marriage.
All these is only being human
We are frustrated
I am frustrated
And humans do the unimaginable to curb frustration.
In The world We are, and in a case of opposing forces One calls himself the good and tags the other The bad ,Then the supposed bad also tags The Supposed Good "The Bad" Then who is the good and the bad?
Only Those who want to be a judge in their own case will tag theirselves the victim and the other The Oppressor
Remember: Reaction doesn't happen before Action
The Latter comes first
If Yorubas says they were neutral in the 1967 civil war
Well Igbos has a counter opinion
If Igbos Tagged there selves The Victims
