When you underestimate education, you will produce working-class that will do poorly in application. Thus, they beg. And the world despise them for the disgrace self-inflicted. It all has a solution with EDUCATION. : ASUU Strike: Prostitution Will Increase Among Female Students– Sex Workers To FG by willahpih(m): 11:47am You see! A proustite is ,now, an adviser to the FG. But must the government be told before they know this. How can a country like Nigeria, that aspires to develop like other developed countries of the world, lay less emphasis on the education sector. Yes, I know what I'm saying. Nigeria puts government first in the list of national priority before education. Nigeria, I refer to here, should be taken as the constitution. Yes, our constitution gives higher priority to the government than education; ignoring or unobservant that it is education that man the government. Bad education breeds bad governance. So, it is obvious why we have poor governance in Nigeria. Just imagine how big our nation is, be it population or landmass, and then imagine how much we have spent on average as per education. Do the same imagination for government. Then, compare the two. What is your result?! You will see that education has little weight than government in Nigeria. Thus, we conclude , we have bad education. And from the implication, we have bad government. So for Nigeria to prosper, it has to learn how to spend and work more for education sector above all. Because once you have good education sector, you must definitely have good government by implication. Where is a country, whose students should be in school but are caused to proustite due to no activity brought about by the government in the sector, going? Things are in shambles here. We are trading our future by all this misappropriation, looting, e.t.c.. I pray for a better one Nigeria. Amen. 4 Likes 3 Shares |

Sadly, 99.9% of Nigerians are corrupt, the International airport is just another reflection of this. No news here, just another tale of woe. One thing I noticed here though, we are having a debate about the rampant and brazen corruption in our International airports, but a bunch of jokers are having a separate mundane discussion about airport trolleys. These days, it's hard to see a topic worth an intellectual debate on Nairaland, there will always be certain persons derailing it in an inglorious attempt to show off pettiness. 29 Likes 2 Shares |

erico2k2: 'Free as in air' is the situation at other airports not Stansted. Your grasp of English is poor. 'Free as in air' would entail no payment at all, at any point i.e. the system used at many other airports. A deposit is not 'free'. It's especially irritating when you're flying in from a country where you use Euros and thus have no pound coins on you. |

I have to login after a long while due to the seriousness of this matter. I have been viewing threads as a guest. It is very shameful that in our international airports such happen. Two weeks ago I traveled and returned from Singapore through Aminu Kano Intl Airport. I was to go from Abuja but resorted to Kano because I couldn't get a seat on Ethiopian via Abuja. what I experienced on my arrival at the airport was not only demeaning but disgraceful for a country that prides itself as the giant in Africa. The Custom officials in their manner less and untrained dispositions striped my baggage with bare hands flying my personal effects left right and center. one lady was busy admiring some stuffs I bought as gift items for friends. imagine that! I had to shout at them angrily to the extent that their oga called me out trying to apologize. That was after I had identified myself as a federal employee who was coming from an international training. It was so embarrassing considering the extent nations had advanced in their immigration operandi. At Singapore, I was cleared without speaking to anyone on departure. The process was fully automated. slot in your passport and imprint your tumb for biometric capturing and the passage is cleared for you. I have been to many international airports abroad but I have never seen such disdainful practice. 25 Likes 4 Shares |

[quote author=ifyalways post=59348743] I'm yet to see an international airport where trolleys are free. There are many international airports where you don't pay for trolleys. Let me cite India which closer to us in the development index of nations. At the Indira Ghandi international airport, you don't pay for trolleys. There are many more examples. 1 Like |
