Those that served in the North knows you can get assaulted by a child's parents for not allowing their children leave the class once it's time to farm and they come at random.

The culture there has illiteracy as its foundation and this makes most northerners socially awkward to those from the south.

The key thing about Almajiri schools why it was a waste of time is that unless the people buy into the idea and change the cultural mindset, they will find it insulting and reject it. How many times have you seen Northern elders defend Almajiri system as their culture and religious way of life

Ordinary telling people to give birth to kids they can cater for is a sensitive topic as they will tell you God takes care of children. To even get people to take polio vaccine its war. There was a time Northern Nigeria was the only place polio was thriving and I was at the forefront cos I was involved in a UNICEF project to vaccinate people. Take vaccine to protct your child should be the easiest thing to get people onboard with yet it was an issue

A people who started a terror organzation and named it "Western Education is a sin" those are the ones you built Almajiri schools for? Dey play my people

Until the North decides to change many things we are just wasting our time

But there are schools there.

Is it Igbo and Yoruba children that are attending GSS Koko?

Theflint1:
We'd never know the level of success the initiative would have achieved because it was frustrated, abandoned and ultimately amounted to nothing.

Bill Gates has been investing in polio vaccination for as long as I can remember, I'm sure the success they achieved in the first couple of years can't be compared to the success the program has enjoyed decades later. You keep pointing at the cultural problem the North has, the alternative can't be complete abandonment until they all come around and say we love western education or love vaccines.

The way Bill Gates would measure success in Microsoft would be very different from the way he'd measure success in his NGO initiatives, two very different things.

The children of the top and middle class attend those schools, the children of the poor are sent to almajiri schools even if GSS koko is totally free

Oga, the poor ones attend there. That was my PPA, and we don't teach on Fridays because it is a market day, and they have to take their harvests to sell

Almajiri school failing is purely political, and not a waste of resources.

The schools there are burdened, but somehow, building more schools is a waste of money. How?

Even if you suggest they learn a trade or vocation, isn't reading and writing necessary?

So who are the children enrolled in Almajiri schools? You think anyone close to middle class will send his own kids to Almajiri ?

Do you even know who an Almajiri is?

Read what Amoto94 wrote. All gej did was throw school buildings at a cultural problem. Bill gates has also spent billions on polio vaccines but the north is still one of the world's last polio reservoirs.

If no leaders are ready to teach that western education of any form is a gateway to a better life. And that a better life is desirable (since as Muslims we are taught that this world is a trial and a short test for a much longer hereafter) then any investment in western education for the northern masses is dead on arrival

Especially in a place that celebrates Islam as a way of life and all that.

.....Zamfara Governor spent ₦19 Billions on Canteen/Kitchen Equipment. Well, according to Mr. Theflint1, PDP ain't an Evil, so no qualm. He spent it wisely.

If Sanusi a core northern elite believes an Almajari being able to read and write in Arabic is enough, where does that leave southerners who believe otherwise?

APC at the center is evil and has failed, an experiment gone awry, we need course correct. Some states might be better served with APC in charge, but then again, doesn't that help APC maintain their grip at the center...an interesting dilemma.

I don start to buy and will keep buying as the market falls. It will either turn out to be a very stupid decision and I lose all the money or my ticket out of the rat race.

Bought some Popcat and real which Danny has been shilling as well.
