General misconception is that University Education is for all classes of people, however every developed country only consider Universities for people who can use the knowledge to payback student loan, or get schorlarship and work for government, monotechnics, polytechnics and colleges are generally for all class

solmusdesigns:




Good one,

but i prefer standardized paid and subsidized education like Covenant University or robust schorlarship scheme for deserving serious students only

Free Education is what untimately destroyed Nigerian education system


...

HeyCorleone:


Abi?
Why should you help the poor? Why not just build expensive schools with supposed quality of education just so poor people would not be able to attend? .

If you check tuition fees of colleges across the world ranked close to Covenant especially in southafrica and India then you would understand Covenants 1million tuition ($3000) is still subsidised with winners church tithe payers money.. even with the infrastructure on ground tuition fees cant recoup such investment

HeyCorleone:


So because of that, we shouldn't have free schools for poor people to attend? Because your reasoning is baffling.

Even with the 'subsidty', how many people can afford Covenant without breaking a sweat?

Oga google the meaning of scholarship

and lets have the talk

TheGoodJoe:


The bolded is what makes Apostle Chibuzor special when you consider he is also housing lots free, providing free medicare, carrying industrial training all free. He is amazing and unbelievable.

HeyCorleone:


How many people do you want to give scholarships to?

Such effort, like the one done by this school, should be commended. You say Free education destroyed Nigeria, but so many people are able to fend for themselves because of same free education. What most people need is a platform. Standard or not. Just give them a means to gain a little knowledge, and it would impart on their lives.

I don't even get your beef. Is anyone forcing you to bring your kids to the school? Who honestly cares what you prefer?

solmusdesigns:


I clear stated the poor can apply for scholarship, so long you aint a dullard

HeyCorleone:


You are focusing too much on universities.

What this man opened was a basic education centre, either primary or secondary. Why compare it to Covenant if you aren't just looking for unnecessary talks?

How many other MOGs have free secondary schools?

That is the context here.

I agree with your submission, completely.

The logic is, the people you are providing education for aren't all millionaires. Perhaps a smarter move would have been building "cheaper schools with a relatively lesser standard.....without compromising the basics of education.." Like this, a larger chunk if the population would benefit.

But I understand Mr. Oyedepo has a target, that is, making Covenant one of the top schools at the international level. This, too, is a good objective. This entails investing heavily in science and agriculture. It entails bringing world class teachers, professors, researchers et al. This costs money. Some huge money.

I am a strong critic of the Nigerian church but even in criticism, we must be truthful to ourselves. Covenant is doing well for itself. It can't achieve this height if it were entirely free. This is an unbiased truth.

You'd agree with me that the Apostle, at the moment, does not have a "world standard school.." (for lack of a better term). I don't think the reason is because he can't afford it. Perhaps the reason is because of the financial capacity of a greater percentage of his church - and the populace.

You mentioned housing. This, too, is another beautiful achievement of this gentleman. But recall that building houses is a one-time-expense project. Unlike running a school or a hospital where you'd need to pay your staff monthly.

I've also read that he has a hospital. I think it's free too.

In all, our religious leaders can do better. And at this pace, I think one day, soon, we would get there.

Scholarship for all deserving student not Free tuition fees for all.. its common sense

Horlardorjah:
mad man freeze will not see this oh

Imagine an estate where poor people, rehabilitated criminals and sex workers are housed and fed FOR FREE as they pick up the pieces of their lives?
-
My brother and friend Apostle Chibuzor Chinyere has made this possible with the newly commissioned OPM free estate.

This is what church money should be used for, this is what the church should do.

And for the sake of your souls, I will most gladly spend my money and myself. If I love you more, will you love me less?

[15] That evening the disciples came to him and said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds away so they can go to the villages and buy food for themselves.” [16] But Jesus said, “That isn’t necessary—you feed them.
