aletheia: Ok Aletheia: Now I can see where you are headed and why you have also avoided the glaring implication of GEJ's words. For the last time (cos I think we are overbeating this), there is an inherent implication in GEJ's words when he said that his kids are in Nigeria. For your information, the children of most governors, deputy governors and not surprisingly, the VP and the president, who are still minors (or still in secondary school) are mostly in Nigeria. This is because they are actually safer in Nigeria (where they have the routine of security aides) tha,n in say, the UK where some junkie can come off the street and shoot them for some few dollars or pounds. So it is not a big deal really to say that your kids (minors) are all in Nigeria. But in trying to spin this for his political good, he is implying that his kids share the same circumstances as other ordinary Nigerian kids. He is trying to play his kids sojourn in Nigeria as a political card and in doing so has made that information fair game. I still want to know if his kids are attending public schools. If he is reposing so much confidence in the educational system that he has built over the past 12 years as DG, G, VP and P, then it is only reasonable that he send his kids to public schools. Again, I am even more concerned about their tertiary education. GEJ was a lecturer before luck (albeit ill-luck on the part of his former immediate bosses) brought him this far. Has he done enough for university education in Nigeria to mandate his own children to study in one of our 'great' universities? Again, by trying to use his kids as a political tool to whip emotional and psychological support, he has made the situation fair game and every scrutiny is in order. I must commend your civility too. I have noticed a lack of this in many posts and this is quite disturbing. |
