100naira Rochas Salary To Students by Bobbyendy: 12:56pm On Nov 05, 2011 |
The Governor of Imo state. Rochas Okorocha on the 1st of November 2011 announced the commencement of payment of monthly salary to all primary and secondary school students in the state the salary according to him is for their upkeep. The primary school pupil will receive 100naira, while their secondary school counterpart will receive 120naira. Primary school monitors will receive 120naira while secondary school prefects will receive 150naira by virtue of their position. I don't know whether to laugh or applaud this move,what can they possibly do with this pls fellow nairalanders express your views. Please Seun can you put this on frontpage for a wider access |

It* |
Re: 100naira Rochas Salary To Students by Odunnu: 6:26am On Nov 06, 2011 |
What kinda school supplies? If thats what he's aiming at, why not buy the supplies and distribute every month? |
Re: 100naira Rochas Salary To Students by Nobody: 6:36am On Nov 06, 2011 |
It's a simple reinforcer. The amount of the money is not the focus, it's the earning of the money that counts. It's a simple psychology behavioral modification process to reinforce children to stay in school. It's like elementary school teachers distributing gummy bear candy to the best behaved kids in the class room. It's not much, but it makes you feel like you've done something to earn something. Parents will be like "So did you earn money this month?". A simple "No" or "Yes" will determine the child's effort at school on that certain month. It becomes a conditioned response. This will work better if Rochas only awards the outstanding students. But of course, one will have to define "outstanding" before the process begins. |

If it a reward system, its a different story, but its not. If he'd bought pens and exercise books and share in class every month, it'l be understandable, but N120? that will even distract the pupils. |
Re: 100naira Rochas Salary To Students by DonaldsN(m): 7:01am On Nov 06, 2011 |
Its really a good idea. But in a country like Nigeria, one day you'll hear students are on strike over unpaid salaries. |
Re: 100naira Rochas Salary To Students by Bobbyendy: 10:56am On Nov 06, 2011 |
The issue is really dicey but I know it surely has its advantage & disadvantage but what I can't still figure out is which of them outweigh the order especially if you want to look at the economic situation of the country. I think the money should have been increase considering the fact that its going to be monthly. |
Re: 100naira Rochas Salary To Students by Bobbyendy: 11:25am On Nov 06, 2011 |
Donalds N:hhahhahaahahahah can't stop laughing am just imagining how it will be couple with the striking workers |

This man shld be applauded. The 120 you see as nothing means a lot to public school students, you need to come down to their level to be able to understand the usefulness of a little. They could buy books and pencils it will even encourage saving. |
Re: 100naira Rochas Salary To Students by Nobody: 3:39pm On Nov 06, 2011 |
Odunnu: Yea, I guess you're right. But it adds up sha. No penny is too little a penny ![]() |

Re: 100naira Rochas Salary To Students by olayemi22(m): 8:06pm On Nov 09, 2011 |
it's really encouraging and motivating. This can leads to giving salary to anybody above age of 18+. If Rochas mean this things, Definately he become a president he will do more than this, It really encourage educatinon. Some might think, it is token amount of money buh bringing it to primary school level, it worth more than saving |
Re: 100naira Rochas Salary To Students by jidewin(m): 2:06pm On Dec 22, 2011 |
To me this is not a bad move,but its applied the wrong way. 1.Pupils should be sponsored and not paid.the monthly 'benefits'can be converted to setup world class research institutes to handle various medical and engineering progs,but aimed at "catching them young".I won't be surprised if at pry and second.school pupils who can develop alternative fuel energy could emerge.if rochas cab sponsor highly resourceful and intelligent "whizkids"hmmmmm the entire south east will go into competition and produce great human and material resources that make Nigeria proud, or BIAFRAN REPUBLIC a country of intellects. don't say I said so. |
