Education / Japa: Be Wary Of Western Exploitative Education As Route To ‘japa’, Ex-vc Warns by emwhyz(m): 10:07pm On Sep 07, 2023
Culled from: https://thenationonlineng.net/japa-be-wary-of-wwestern-exploitative-education-as-route-to-japa-ex-vc-warns-youths/

The former vice-chancellor of Ajayi Crowther University, Abeokuta, Ogun state, Professor Dapo Asaju has advised Nigerian youths to be wary of Western exploitative education used to entice them to leave the country.

Asaju, while delivering a convocation lecture at Redeemer’s University, Ede, Osun state on Wednesday, September 6, which was tagged ‘Transformative Economy and Japa Syndrome in Nigeria’ opined that japa is self-exportation which is synonymous with self-slavery.

He said: “The first slavery of Africans was when they were forcefully shipped across the Atlantic by white slate traders who enslaved them like animals, the second wave of slavery was during the period of colonialism, following the Berlin conference of 1845 and the third is which is worst form is when African country has come of age to extent that they have started to train their indigenous professionals and educated elite but who are forced by unpleasant circumstances to willing and cheaply sell themselves to serve western countries; many, for pittance doing menial jobs.”

“On another hand are exploitative educational enticement of Africans who are encouraged to pay terribly high fees to obtain a Master’s Degree from British Universities just because they would have the opportunity to do some hours of menial jobs and stay as residents after some years. They pay N16 million per year to earn a Master’s Degree.”

Asaju added that he resisted the pressure mounted on him to establish the College of Medicine during his tenure as VC because the majority of Colleges of Medicine in Nigeria heavily funded with taxpayers’ money ended up producing doctors and nurses for international societies.

He advised that Nigerians should be wary of paying heavily to schools in the Western world, saying that certificates acquired outside Nigeria are not superior to certificates from Nigerian varsities

Crime / Man Arrested For ‘switching Lanes’ Details ‘organised Crime’ By Police, LASTMA A by emwhyz(m): 9:26am On Oct 14, 2022
Man Arrested for ‘Switching Lanes’ Details ‘Organised Crime’ by Police, LASTMA at Oshodi Office
Published 13th Oct, 2022

By Sodeeq Atanda


Olu Abiodun, a Lagos State resident, has narrated how a group of policemen led by one Taiwo Ogunbodede, an inspector, extorted N12,000 from him after accusing him of ‘wrongfully changing lanes’ along Ikorodu road on October 6.

Abiodun told FIJ that he had simply made use of the interchange that links motorists to Ikorodu road from the flyover at Anthony Bus Stop when the police officers ordered him to stop and forcefully entered his vehicle.

“I was driving my Mitsubishi car along Anthony area on October 6 and when I descended from the flyover, I joined the traffic and then the ramp that connects motorists to Ikorodu road in order to come back to Yaba,” Abiodun said.


“Suddenly, one police officer, whose name I would later know to be Inspector Taiwo Ogunbodede, also popularly called ‘Enilolobo’, ordered me to stop and forcefully entered my car.

“He then ordered me to stop my car at gunpoint and seized my car key.

“I asked him my offence; he replied by saying “I joined the traffic immediately under the flyover”.

“Bemused, I asked him if what he had just said was a joke, but he said he was serious about it. He also added that the government had now “made my offence an offence”.

Abiodun said he would later discover that Ogunbodede and the other officers who answer to him were a police unit attached to the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) office in Oshodi.

“As I was speaking with him, he passed my car key to another officer who drove my car to their LASTMA office in Oshodi. I had to take a ride to their office and while I was going, he gave me his personal phone line to call him when I got to their Oshodi office so as to negotiate my fine with him,” Abiodun said.

Abiodun said when he got to LASTMA’s Oshodi office, he met tens of hundreds of victims with similar stories in front of their gate.

“It was boldly written on LASTMA’s entrance gate that videoing, taking pictures and phone calls are not allowed,” the motorist said.



“Eventually, Ogunbodede asked me to talk to one officer inside their office. When I met the officer I was referred to, he wrote N12,000 on a small piece of paper and asked me to go and give the cash to another officer before my car could be released.

“When I eventually got my car back and was about leaving their premises, the officer at the gate collected the piece of paper from me and tore it immediately. I observed that the crime these LASTMA and police officers perpetrate in this state is so organised that it makes it difficult for victims to get justice.”

When FIJ called Taiwo Ogunbodede on his phone line, he demanded to know how this reporter got his number.

He also denied the allegation and challenged Abiodun to come to his office and prove all he had said.

“How did you get my number? I only give my phone number to people I know and it could be possible that I gave my number to him (Abiodun) on passionate grounds,” Ogunbodede said.

“As an inspector, I cannot be so foolish to give my number to the person I arrested because of N12,000. How much is it? If he is sure of his claim he should come to me and prove it.”

Joshmodest:

A violent man , cut the leg of his wife , and you are here talking about saints , Atrocities , rapture yadda yadda yadda ...
Where are the saints that want to leave , to make this world worse than what it is currently ?
The hope of an unknown world to come that you speak highly of , is the reason we let evil abound on earth , in our petite minds we think the world is meant to be evil and there's a place where good shall abound and we shall reign there ..without doing our little quota to make this world we see and know of its existence better ...
I know some people find your comments inspiring and all , but if you must bring religion and prayers into everything ...restrict your unintelligent comments to the religion section or better still open a church in your corridor ..
Peace !


The same way you have fair right to hearing and to hold opinion so also he/she. Why don't you just exercise a bit of tolerance without you attacking others. If not you would become the type of person that people refer to as bigot, extremist, religion intolerant person.

Unless he lives in a mansion and needs extensive wheeling to get round the house, I'm sure he'd rather have the 8million naira in cash.

This wheelchair is not foldable, not easily liftable and what's more is that it would further expose him to thieves.

The only advantage would be that it provides back and leg massage. But I doubt it provides such.

Anyway kudos to the airforce for remembering him.
