Wake up, Fellow Nigerians
HOW THE ABSENCE OF CREATIVITY IN NIGERIA HAS MANIFESTED ITSELF IN NATIONAL LIFE SINCE THE DEPARTURE OF THE COLONIALISTS
As observed in many of my writings since 1989, this national malaise is due to the type of educational system the British colonialists left Africa with on their departure from the shores of Africa – learning by rote, just learning how to read and write. Thus, Nigeria’s educational system and by extension, the African educational system lacks aims and objectives – lacks purpose, focus and devoid of any philosophical and ideological foundations.
