If 2y(5x-7y) -6y X +6 = 45 find
x.
Yesterday i was in the sitting room watching a
program called
China24 on CCTV NEWS, an
electric lamp
manufacturer was
interviewed together with his workers in his
factory. The workers are
kids between the ages or
12-18 the most
beautiful part of it was that
the kids can on their own manufacture same.
Now let's come down to
Nigeria.
Nigerian students are busy
searching for "x"
while students in the developed countries are
manufacturing things
for the development of
their country.
In Nigeria, our engineering
students spend nearly all their time solving
difficult equations and
searching for "x".
In Nigeria, students will be
asked to search for
"x" I do smile and ask myself how can we use
Algebra and simultaneous
equation to boost
the economy.
How can we use the located
"x" to solve the challenges facing us?
In Nigeria, teacher will draw a
circle having dots
in it on the chalk
board and tell the kids "this is
an Orange" imagine.
In Nigeria, a teacher will be in
the class room
using acid to change
litmus paper to red on the
chalk board. In fact, in Nigeria the best
place to mix acid with base is
on chalk board.
In Nigeria, a teacher will be in
the class
teaching rock and it types and expect the students to be
able to identify
them in real sense how
possible?
However, the above are some
of the reasons why at 50+ as an oil
producing country we are still
importing tooth-pick and
matches. Our brain
has been channel to the
fact that failure to go to school will end one up
as a domestic servant
of the educated ones which I
seriously disagree
with. We can't all be in the
class room at the same time and expect
us to catch up with the
developed countries, it
never done; we will
keep depending on them with
such barbaric idea.
Let those that are willing to
go into sport be on
the field or track not
in class room, Christiano
Ronaldo of Real Madrid FC was expelled from
school at the age of 14
and today he is a world
footballer.
Let take those that are good
in construction to factories or workshops
not class room. Let's take
away pen from our
engineering students
and send them out of class.
Let's take away pen from those that are willing
to take hoe, cutlass,
hammer, saw, screw driver
etc.
Our too much dependent on
pen is sending us backward.
To me, spending 5, 6 or more
years in tertiary
institution is nothing
but a total waste of time, 3
years is enough for engineering courses.
12 calender month is enough
for food related
courses and 3 or 4
years is enough to be a
lawyer. Imagine our youth spending 8years of
their lives in university
and still our Government
don't trust on their
expertise rather they travel
out of the country.. At this juncture, I will like to
call on the
government at all level to
look into this and find a
lasting solution to it.
Lastly our government should stop sending the
talented ones away
by sending them aboard for
training and failed to
establish/provide where
they will be discharging what they've learnt or the
skills they've acquired
upon their arrival. If
we can do this, I believe that
few years to come
Nigeria will be the greatest country of the world
while others will be
on the queue at our
back.
But before then, I remain my
humble self. God bless my father land
