ejanla077:Yeah, I do and can't contemplate same in a different language. But here you are struggling with English language, just a language, a non logical subject. |

WarHorse1: Lovely experience there! So you see how backward reasoning keeps us down. The principal does not understand his role in the school which is to facilitate learning. He was just fulfilling unproductive bureacracy. This reminds me of 3 idiots film: "This is a college not a pressure cooker". |

hero2000: German and Mandarin are global languages! German is spoken by at least 3 countries. Mandarin is spoken by 1 billion plus people. Are you not tired of all the tribalism you see around you? That is the biggest contribution our multiplicity of languages has brought us! Nothing but tribalism! 1 Like |

This is unnecessary and will cause confusion. It is better if everyone speaks one language. |

zionmade1: How old are you? I am very sure you were not near earth in the 70s. Common Entrance was big deal then. Besides this was a pilot scheme. So it was natural to test it in primary school before advancing to Secondary school. Also, what I would love to know(which you should also be interested in) is how these pupils taught in local languages fared in their studies in secondary school. Did this local language learning foundation give an edge over other students OR were they at a disadvantage? |

PaztorAYO: Your comment shows you are well read and exposed. A big problem with your post is: The current system works well. Does it REALLY work well for us-Africans, Nigerians? Maybe it works well for Europe and the West but I doubt it works well for us. |

Zenithpeak: Your line of reasoning is like a man whose child has leukemia and says, 'look let us give child quality education. Education is the most important thing. When he is well educated we can now treat his Leukemia'. The child might be dead before he gets the quality education. Even if he doesn't die, where is the health required for gaining useful education? |

ejanla077: Thank you!. And that's the question everybody against this policy should answer. If we can understand science in a foreign language, how much more in our own language? That's a good question. Its a pity many years of slavery and colonialism won't just let us understand English isn't our language and that we will be better off studying in our native languages. When and if this policy implemented you'll see intelligence and academic excellence unleashed all over Nigeria, and hopefully Africa. It happened in Britain itself that gave us English. 1 Like 1 Share |

I really wish this policy is begun. At least, maybe as a pilot scheme in some schools and let us see the outcome. Then I hope the abortive tendency of government policies won't happen to this one too. Corruption destroys the best of ideas! |

hero2000: What you failed to realise is that, the PROBLEM OF NIGERIA IS NOT THE LANGUAGE OF TEACHING but a deliberate attempt of some people to keep enriching themselves at the expense of others. What is the essence of a brilliant graduate without job or an avenue to to utilise his knowledge? Language of study cannot solve the problem of this nation. If we make our local languages the bedrock of our educational atmosphere and the culture of impunity is still there, we are coming back to square one UNDER DEVELOPED COUNTRY. |

zionmade1: And those scholars fell from heaven? Pls, if you're not into languages, just talk a walk. It's obvious you're ignorant of the nexus between someone's native language and knowledge. Just forget it. |
