While I would agree with you that the states always had the power to introduce the teaching of history on their own, and I believe some still do at that level....you have to be very aware of the fact that there has been a huge upswing in a massive propaganda brainwashing attempt to "rewrite" history mainly from the view of Northern muslims with twisted ulterior motives. They do not even need secular schools teaching secular subjects to brainwash them. Every week in their Islamic mosques they indoctrinate their footsoldiers with concentrated lies about the real histories of mainly Christian areas of the Middle Belt who were never conquered by precolonial jihadists--but only fell to British colonial rule. They try to justify their constant bloodshed and attacks on indigenous non-muslim groups by REWRITING the real history of particular places with bold faced shameless lies.

As for the issue of security...you also know as well that state Governors being in charge of security might as well be some type of sham right? Their powers to curb incursions is almost always limited by actions at the Federal level.

The Military structure of the entire country needs to be totally overhauled and reconstituted as it has become an easy tool for whoever is in charge to abuse. The title "Commander-in-Chief" of a supposed Nigerian nation only exists to aggressively push for the self-centered interests of the individual's ethnic/religious group without any real checks and balances--even if that Head of State would covertly support terrorists--and simultaneously pretend to support the military at the same time..

Now how about ensuring that the Governor has the power to actually dictate to the Police and the Military in their domain about an urgent security issue without the need to consult a God-forsaken "abuja" for once? Of course, blocking that reality will only lead to the eventual formations of State owned Para-Military forces to match the functions and purpose of the military in such cases where Fulani Terrorists attack villages near an army cantonment near Jos....but they just watched, waiting for orders from Abuja. Yet they were very very quick to respond against the Jos natives when there was a counter-attack against the marauding Muslim murderers.

Ancient History. Modern contemporary history...all need to be taught in all fairness and truth since it merely records the evils and abuses of mostly people in power and those who idolize them.

No doubt Nigeria needs to be restructured, he even with current structure, the states can do a lot to alleviate the plight of their people. If you know how much our governors collect from Abuja in the name of allocation and security votes and how little they do with it, you’d cry. Also, if a governor is nkt corrupt and truly works for his people and have his people solidly behind him, Abuja will be cautious with that governor.
About the current structure, these governors don’t respect the constitution or rule of law in the governance of their respective states (they are lawless -mini emperors), but once it comes to taking radical steps to actually benefit their people, they point to the constitution as tying their hands. If I am governor, I’d damn that evil constitution (as they usually do when it benefits them and their cronies) and Abuja and ARM a well formed vigilante to fight Fulani herdsmen that are killing my people (after all they have armed thugs already that do the dirty jobs for them). I won’t wait for Abuja to give me permission to defend my people against the marauding barbarians.

Hateful insecure ipob miscreants with low self esteem and their dumb Niger delta sidekicks will not sleep this night. At least the noise of awa oyel go reduce. I'm happy for the north

illuminutty:
North will soon lead the dissolution of this bad marriage called Nigeria. I trust my northern brothers. They have agriculture and now oil, they can confidently kick southern Nigerian goodbye. The only thing that have kept them to this contraption is oil.

BEING RUNNING MATE TO IPOBI OR ANY IBO IS AN EMBARRASSMENT AND INSULT TO ANY FULANI OF SIGNIFICANCE.
FULANI ASKED DATTI TO SACRIFICE HIMSELF FOR THAT PURPOSE SO AS TO HIDE THE LARGER FULANI GRAND SCHEME TO DOMINATE NIGERIA FOREVER.

I will even go back to primary school after all the knowledge is already there its the money the knowledge will get us we seek and 300m for that dare is good business

Lovenorth:

And what would it be their share for doing that, and from who? Remember they are all pursuing their personal interest

savcy:
If oil is the principal exchange commodity of the country, and the assumption is that the value of our currency is tied to the price per barrel of oil, how come the Naira plummets in value arbitrarily, and without explanation, all when the price of oil is high? What sort of economy are we operating? A country that celebrates BLACK MARKET fx rates to the detriment of her OFFICIAL fx rates cannot be taken seriously. We're still joking with our fiscal policy with the BDCs still around. Redesign notes, raid BDC offices... All will amount to nothing on the long run. When all is said and done, and the dust settles the hydra headed demon called the BDCs would again rear up their ugly head and wreak financial havoc. Jokers!

there are some factors you need to consider about the purchasing power of currency you are using beer and food as comparison. for beer we have a lot of beer manufacturing companies in Nigeria and the agricultural products they used to produce beer is locally available that is why it is very cheap.. there Re many places in Nigeria today that you will spend up to 3000k for a complete meal before you can satisfy I am not talking about local food vendor and the price of food meal is not the same in every region in Nigeria.. in north is very cheap because they are extensively into farming in south west it is fair in the south east is not that bad then go to south south it is very bad.. so you cannot tell me our currency has a powerful purchasing power with this present economy situation compare to 2015 abi are you not in Nigeria again what we used to buy 1k is not like 5k
