KADUNA TEACHER'S SAGA,WHO IS TO BLAME?
For about a week now the news of what happened in kaduna state has been trending on social media, radio stations,television stations,nes papers,media outlets,etc.
The kaduna state government decided to test primiry school teachers using primary 4 curriculum, the result was disastrous as we all know.
The question is WHO IS AT FAULT?
The teachers or the government?

Father of the Worlds smartest family in Britain, Nigerian-born Prof. Chris Imafidon has admonished the federal government to seek new and practical ways to indulge digital wizards popularly called ‘Yahoo-Yahoo,” saying that the usual resort to profiling and punishing these internet fraudsters is not the best way to deal with it.

Imafidon who spoke in Abuja at a conference titled “The Nigerian Child; The Genius” organized by Arete Copious Services Limited in alliance with Africa House London, Rotary and Diamond Clubs Asokoro, Imafidon advised the government to invest more in human development and that governments at all levels must seek newer and practical ways to redirect the creative energies of these youths into more productive ventures.

He said, “What Nigeria needs is not social mobility; it is survival. Why do you build a house as if you were living in a prison and vote so much money for security, so much money for guns? And they said they are trying to protect themselves? From who? Or do you use half of that money to educate people that would have been armed robbers and then give yourself security? We can not have so much money for security. I have never heard of Chinese importing armed robbers to Nigeria, they are our biological children. Some are cultists, but were they born cultists?

The Americans have Rugby, a very ‘physical’ sport. They created it for their youths to be able to deploy their energy in sports. A University in America made $1.5 billion dollars in a year from Rugby competition. Give me the so-called ‘yahoo-yahoo’ boys. You do not need to take them for any deliverance. These are the people that create viruses and anti-viruses. They create life-saving apps,” he continued.

“So, you don’t need security Mr Governor. I don’t care where you govern. You don’t need a private jet because you are a governor of seven local government areas. I have a privilege being an adviser to a woman, who is the Head of State of 52 nations; she doesn’t have a private jet”. So, What you need is a little bit of education, if you have an education you will know that you are the Father-in-Chief of every child in that state, you will see every child as your own biological child and you will be interested in those children achieving their dreams. So, get your so-called budget for security and secure your life by giving education to all”, he stated. Imafidon said since Nigeria cannot afford ignorance, she must do everything to ensure that her citizens afford quality education,” he admonished.

Nigerian-born Helen Grant of the United Kingdom Parliament advised parents and educationists on the effective ways to raise geniuses even within the scope of limited resources.

THE GREAT IFE!!!!!

Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) is a federal government[1] owned and operated Nigerian university. The university is in the ancient city of Ile-Ife, Osun State, Nigeria. The university was founded in 1961 and classes commenced in October 1962 as the University of Ife by the regional government of Western Nigeria, led by late chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola, and was renamed Obafemi Awolowo University on 12 May 1987 in honour of Chief Obafemi Awolowo (1909–1987), first premier of the Western Region of Nigeria, whose brainchild the university was. The decision to establish the University of Ife (popularly referred to as "Great Ife" by the ruling Action Group party of the Western Region of Nigeria was in protest at the recommendations of the Ashley Report.The first Nigerian university was established in 1948 at Ibadan, in the western region as an external college of the university of London. However, the needs of Nigeria (then a British colony) far outstripped the productivity of the only university. In particular the University College at Ibadan had no faculty of engineering or technology, no law school, no pharmacy school or management training abilities. The Ashby commission, set up by the British, was to review tertiary education needs of the soon-to-be-independent nation of Nigeria.
In February 1966, Lt-Col Francis Adekunle Fajuyi, the Visitor of the University of Ife and the first Military Governor of the Western Region, appointed Professor Hezekiah Oluwasanmi as the new Vice-Chancellor, and a Chief TT Solaru as the pro-chancellor and gave them money and marching orders, to relocate to the permanent campus by October 1966. Fajuyi was killed in the military mutiny of July 1966 at Ibadan, and did not witness the movement he orchestrated. Fajuyi Hall, a residential hall for undergraduate male students was named to honor his contributions in perpetuity.

Ife started the first Faculty of Pharmacy in West Africa, the first Department of Chemical Engineering and the first Electronics component in addition to Electrical Engineering. Its medical school started with an integrated curriculum and community orientation (which was later adopted by the World Health Organization) and a compulsory baccalaureate (BSc honours) before entrance to the clinical school, but this was later jettisoned.
The Great Ife as popularly known has produced exceptional graduants making the country pround in their various endavours all around the world.
