Nigeria having the most number of her citizens schooling abroad isn't an achievement,but shows the rot in our educational system...And as we speak the body governing the tertiary institutions are still on strike. The same thing also goes in the health sector,where we have people that would have been saved,but die due to either negligence or poor facilities. Funny enough Nigeria is amongst the top 3 richest nations with mineral resources...So what is really our problem,why are we always getting it wrong since independence? I think everybody that have stolen from the nation deserves to die along with their family 35 Likes 4 Shares |
