Imagine, a Doctorate degree holder at 17 and our own mumu government is telling our kids to wait until 18 before entering the higher institution. Missed placed priority of a government. 1 Like |

89green: Did you read the part that said she was old-schooled.... It means she didnt attend your regular school. It is also not possible in her country if she attended a normal school. You Nigerians are so keen at destroying the image of your country that you dont mind throwing your brains away to do so 2 Likes 1 Share |

Theoarhics: Where has that ever happened. People are actually leaving Nairaland for their mental health reading from stupid people like you is something that can actually destroy any intelligent person..... We have 14 and 15 year olds in our universities. When and where has the national assembly ever talked about 18years being the entery age for universities. People are graduating at age 18..... So my quetion is are you just being stupid? Because the article clearly said she was home schooled meaning she didnt attend the for 4 walls of a school untill she went to college... So again is your brain functioning? |
