I also agree that the home videos and unfettered access to the internet has had an impact on the lives of the youth. The problem is there's little that can be done in that regard now. The boarding house system would have been able to reduce the exposure and effect but now most schools are day schools with large virtually uncontrollable population. When I visited my Alma mater with a view towards deciding on a befitting project by my set, I couldn't help crying. I still feel sad cos a school that has produced many great silent achievers is now of a low standard. Even scholarship exam organised for them resulted in a disappointing result. I tire! At least I credit Tinubu for returning some schools back to the original owners. It has brought back the competitive sprit back to Lagos schools in a way. Of course the public schools are still a long way off but they're still better than other Odua states. Let's hope there's a comprehensive plan to reorientate our people and pay serious attention to education. Sudden wealth syndrome is not our style. Baba Ijebu gambling mentality isn't good for us. Oun to a ko ba fara sise fun ki tojo... Ise loogun ise.... Ile ti a fi ito mo, iri ni o wo. I wonder if they still read those motivating Yoruba poems. 5 Likes |

9jacrip: The Northerners are sitting on everyone's destiny. Just basically like putting excessive load on a canoe - it's only a matter of time before the whole thing sinks. Then you've got all those smaller "ethnic groups" that keep trying to claime new opportunistic identities, rather than align with the bigger groups they share a lot of similarities with. Those groups are also holding everyone down, and they're also part of the reason why it'll be difficult to restructure the country. You would also see that they're loudest proponents of the one-Nigeria quagmire cos they'd rather be messed up within Nigeria, so they can protect their new found fame - than get a better deal elsewhere. The whole madness is just nauseating, really. Yorubas just need to go after Yoruba interests and leave the rest to stay perambulating in circles like the London Eye. We don't owe none of these folks anything - and our destinies aren't aligned. 2 Likes |
