The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has withdrawn recognition for 113 secondary schools nationwide, as punishment for examination malpractices. Also, results of 30, 654 candidates, who sat for the May/June 2012 West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) have been cancelled. According to Saturday Sun findings, WAEC has also cancelled individual subject results of 83, 745 candidates, released the results of 1, 549 and barred for two years 3, 321 candidates from sitting for the council examination over misconduct during the school exam, in line with the rules and regulations guiding the conduct of the examination.
The cancelled results were among the 112, 000 results of candidates withheld for their involvement in examination malpractice out of 1, 695, 878 candidates that sat for the May/June 2012 WASSCE. Only 38.81 per cent (649, 156) of the total candidates that sat for the May/June 2012 WASSCE obtained five credits in English Language, Mathematics and three other subjects, thus were qualified for admissions into universities and polytechnics.
The Nigeria Examinations Committee (NEC) of the council took the far-reaching decisions in Lagos after it deliberated on evidences (exhibits) produced by the council, which were seized from some candidates involved in examination malpractice. Other decisions taken by NEC include recommendation for sanctions against 97 supervisors/principals/other examination personnel identified and reported to their various state ministries of education, while 21 supervisors also indicted were blacklisted.
The WAEC committee also recommended that 465 secondary schools be warned for aiding and abetting examination malpractice during the 2012 May/June WASSCE, granted clemency to eight candidates even as the certificates of 12 others were withdrawn after they asked for restitution. The NEC, which was chaired by the Director of Basic and Secondary Education), Ministry of Education, Abuja, directed that the allegations against 930 candidates be further investigated, while their results are withheld.
Also, the council withdrew the recognition of six schools and commended one staff. A breakdown of schools sanctioned nationwide revealed that majority came from the South-South, followed by those from the North, South East and South West. Government-owned schools top the list of those involved in exam fraud. The NEC recommendation shows that recognition for 21 schools were withdrawn for two years. Also, recognition for 43 others were withdrawn, along side the principals of the schools.
Saturday Sun learnt that the council has communicated the decisions of NEC to the state ministries of education, which is expected to take action against the schools and principals indicted by WAEC.

Pupils and members of staff of the Methodist High School, Ilesa, Osun State, were left in awe last Saturday when old students of the school presented facilities and infrastructure worth N35m to their alma mater.
The presentation was the highlight of events to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the school’s establishment.
Joy was clearly written on the face of the principal, Mr. Daramola Oluwole, as dignitaries arrived the premises of the school to inaugurate the newly refurbished six blocks of building consisting 37 classrooms, school hall, principal’s office and the main gate now housing a security post.
The historic occasion was made more colourful by the presence of some prominent Nigerians, which included the Owa Obokun, Oba Gabriel Adekunle Aromolaran II and the state’s Deputy Governor of the State of Osun, Otunba (Mrs.)Titi Laoye-Tomori.
Before the intervention, many of the classrooms in the school had almost completely collapsed, making learning for pupils a Herculean task. According to Oluwole, many of the pupils had been sent home because of leaking roof on a few occasions.
“If you had visited this school before it was fixed by the old pupils, you never could have believed what your eyes would see. Learning was very difficult for the pupils and even teachers found it hard to discharge their duties in classrooms with almost no roof.
“But the new look of the entire school has brought renewed energy into not just the pupils but the teachers who are willing to give the best of their abilities,” he said.
The rebuilt blocks of classrooms were fitted with new doors, windows, ceilings, roof and were also given a new painting.
According to the President of the Old Students Association, Mr. Dideolu Falobi, the entire project which was fully funded by the alumni of the institution, cost about N35m.
He said it was their own way of giving back to the school that laid the foundation for the success many of them now enjoy today.
“For many of us, this is where it all started. The Methodist High School, Ilesa, is where we were put on the right track as young boys and girls and prepared for the journey ahead.
“We thought of many things to do for the school but we realised that nothing would count more than rebuilding the learning environment itself because we found out that no meaningful academic exercise can take place under such place.
“The future of the present crop of pupils of the school means a lot to us including those that would still pass through this institution and that is why we have tasked ourselves even in this difficult period of cash crunch to also lay the foundation for many generations to come. We are extremely proud of this,” he said.
Speaking at the event, a former student and current Vice-Chancellor of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, Osun State, Prof. Bamitale Omole, said the day marked the beginning of a new and prosperous era for the school. Apart from having the potential to improve the academic performance of pupils, he said the new infrastructure would also provide an atmosphere conducive for quality mental development.
While commending the efforts of the old students in transforming the school, Laoye-Tomori pledged government’s support for the education sector in the state.

My People:Here is an example below of how ALUMNI can change the face of their SECONDARY SCHOOL - Methodist High School, Ilesa:If the state or federal government were to institute an an annual revolving multi-billion-naira ALUMNI-MATCHING FUND - one-third to be spent in secondary schools, and two-thirds in universities - whereby for every one-naira spent by alumni, the federal government would add one- or two-naira until all the funds are EXHAUSTED in a given year, you will see many alumni fall over themselves to chip in.And there you would have it.Bolaji AlukoOLD

He has been an ardent follower of President Buhari for many years and it is for this reason many see Adamu as anti-PDP.

And you think Prof Aluko or Abba will not be a substantial upgrade on this gentleman as minister of education?"I truly wish that folks like you and Abba Gumel will get an opportunity to run Nigeria's education policy at the highest levels." - Joe the PandererI do NOT!These two gentlemen have excellent apex education, but it doesn't follow that - on the strength of that alone - they are the best in their field among Nigerians, even though, for Abba Gumel, I cannot imagine another better Nigerian (or any other person I know) mathematician who is. The quy is just phenomenal in his field judging just from his work on the mathematics of HIV pandemics, a disciple I was, myself, very involved in and, indeed, was on the US National Institutes of Health (Laboratory of Tumor Cell Biology under Dr. Robert Gallo) team that discovered HIV in fall of 1984 in cooperation with Dr. Luc Montagnier's Pastuer Institute in France.Bolaji is a different story because his professional reputation is only self-verifying, even though he is the best political bric-a-brac blogger I know!Google both and you'd see what I mean.Even if they are the best in their field, their contribution should be limited only to curriculum development in their fields since their qualification and professional experience cannot include the needs of other disciplines, like music , art, religion, and philosophy or administrator skills.The qualification to lead an education system requires a different set of skills, just as the administrator of a hospital or health care system requires a skill set that is completely different from those that make the best surgeons or diagnosticians.Therefore, as far as qualification to lead any educational system is concerned, Bolaji wouldn't qualify to be a chair of the Montgomery County (local government) - the local county in the US that he lived in before he found a way to relocate to Otouke - Board of Education because his qualification as a lecturer in chemical engineering hardly qualifies him to do so. hat alone wouldn't even qualify him to be the principal of his local high school!This is clearly demonstrated in his recommendation to improve school curriculum for Nigerian schools in which the only things he emphasized are things that help you make a good living (scientist; science education and mathematics) and a good politician (civics and history), with no mention of philosophy and sociology - the bane of liberal arts education (which he never benefitted from) and is the mental infrastructure of an educated mind and good public citizenry.More importantly, you (Joe Attueyi) are no way qualified to know the qualifications of the best person to lead public education policy in Nigeria because we are not talking about fishing in Ajegunle creek!Most of the problems in the Third World countries derives from the the selection of those to lead them in different aspects of societal leadership because they are not based on qualification and the matching of those qualification to the skill sets needed for the positions they are appointed to. They are based just on who they know and who they claim they are.The result is that, after their appointments, they are constantly improvising because they really don't have the skill sets to allow them to perform as they should in their positions.A person with a high school general science eduation is better in a position that requires science knowledge than a Harvard or Oxford graduate of history or even economics that has never had any science education; Nigerians just focus on he Ph.D and what the charlatan (or their admirers and promoters) claims!Nigeria will work well if round pegs are put in round holes and square pegs left in square holes.StevekMitchellville, MarylandThe most dangerous trend in the world today is the growing awareness of the common man - Zbigniew Brzezinsky 1978A wise man proportions his beliefs with evidence - David Hume

Of the 235 Nigerians jailed in Thailand for illicit drugs, 200 hail from Anambra State. That is why the state, in conjunction with National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) is fighting to reverse the trend.
NWANOSIKE ONU reports
Banned drugs are wreaking havoc in Anambra State. The government and the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) are battling to tackle the problem.
There may be some success in the war against Indian hemp but harder drugs such as cocaine and heroin seem to be proving tougher to contain. Two hundred of the 235 Nigerians in Thailand’s jails hail from the state, said Governor Willie Obiano at a forum organised to fashion out new ways to stop the illicit business.
Obiano was represented at the event by the Secretary to the State Government Prof Solo Chukwu-lobelu, who noted that some communities in the state had become havens for drug addicts.
This is frightening, he said, and must stop.
At the forum, stakeholders agreed that the fight against doing trafficking and abuse should be continuous adding that all hands must be on deck.
They spoke at the Prof. Dora Akunyili Women Development Centre in Awka, the state capital. They regretted the agency’s lack of resources to effectively to crush the illicit drug business.
The theme of the lecture was “Curbing Abuse and Trafficking in Illicit Drug in Nigeria, how far, how well”. Dr. Kabir Mato of the Department of Political Science and International Relations, University of Abuja was the guest lecturer.
In a paper, he advocated that states and local governments should provide more money for the NDLEA in order to effectively tackle the menace.
He said, “This support could come in form of logistics and monetary support in a coordinated manner, that would assist in confronting drug cartels, because such cartels are often financially very strong and willing to deploy huge resources to deal with any opposition as may come from the agency.”
He also said state and local governments should maintain and enforce drinking age limits and constantly monitor retailers for compliance as well as stop selling alcohol to drunks.
“State and local governments should enforce legal requirement for installation of ignition interlocks in the vehicles of those convicted of drug use and abuse-impaired driving,” he said. “State and local governments should strengthen and monitor prescription drug programmes and facilitate controlled drug disposal programmes, including policies allowing pharmacies to accept unwanted drugs.”
The state commander of NDLEA Mr. Sule Momodu said the aim of the lecture was to partner with communities and local government areas to see how to end the menace in the state.
He said in 2015 the command convicted 30 suspects, adding that the huge challenge was for the agency and the government to re-strategise.
Momodu asked, “If cannabis sativa challenge is reducing, why are heroin and cocaine on the increase in the state?” He said there was need to address the situation.
He thanked Governor Obiano for helping the agency in the state, adding that the governor had been in the forefront of NDLEA activities in the state.
It was suggested that building rehab centers might be necessary given the prevalence of the use and effects of prohibited drugs in the state, but Obiano said the state would want to be the first in the zone to do so. He would rather get Anambra residents off such drugs than herd them into rehab institutions.

Now that you're thinking let me heap more live coals on your head. Of the 25,006 students in Ogun that passed, half of them are Igbo. And of the over 68,000 that passed in Lagos, above 34,000 of them are Igbo. When I was taking the exam in Lagos, I was counted as a Lagosian.

The analysis of the performance of states in the 2015 West African Senior School Certificate Examination has emerged with south east states again topping the chart with their candidates obtaining the most credits in at least five subjects, including English Language and Mathematics.
Abia state topped the chart with 33, 762 of its 52, 801 candidates getting five credits and above including Mathematics and English thereby securing 63.94 per cent. Anambra followed with 61.18 per cent as 28, 379 out of 46, 385 candidates performed well.
Interestingly, candidate obtained five credits and above, including English and Mathematics from four federal government colleges meaning none of the candidates from the school are likely to secure university admission. The schools are: Federal Government Girls’ College, Bajoga, Gombe State; FGGC, Bauchi; FGGC Gboko, and the Federal Science and Technical College, Kafanchan.
Edo state came third with 38, 052 of its 62, 327 candidate getting five credits and above while Rivers, Imo, Lagos, Bayelsa, Delta, Enugu and Ebonyi rounding up the top ten in the performance ranking.
Only 646 candidates from the 14, 784 that wrote the exam in Yobe got five credits and above the thereby coming last with 4.27 per cent. Northern states occupied the rear positions with nine northern states in the last ten positions. They are Adamawa, Osun, Sokoto, Bauchi, Kebbi, Katsina, Gombe, Jigawa, Zamfara and Yobe. Lagos with 68, 173 out of 141, 963 candidates that sat for the examination placed sixth on the rankings.
The analysis showed that 1,590. 284 candidates sat for the examination in which only 562, 413 candidates obtained credits in five subjects and above including English Language and Mathematics while 1,029,871 representing 64.63 per cent failed to obtain admission requirement to the nation’s universities.
See the ranking below:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nd'igbo and school enrollment By Chinedu Anekwe Sept 2002 In the 10th of July, the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) released the results of the 2002 Universities Matriculation Examination (U.M.E.). According to JAMB Registrar, Prof. Bello Salim, 1,007,326 had completed and returned their admission forms to the Board out of which 975,060 candidates sat for the examination. Giving a breakdown of the entries, Prof. Salim said Imo State presented the highest number of 95,984 or 9.84 per cent of the total entry. Delta State is the runner-up with 80,448 or 8.25 per cent while Anambra State came third with 64,296 or 6.59 per cent. Edo, Ogun and Ondo had 61,897 (6.37 per cent), 54,272(5.6 per cent) and 46,592 (4.7 per cent) applicants respectively, to occupy the third to sixth positions. States with the lowest number of applicants for UME included Borno with 4,358 , Taraba with 2,934 , Katsina 2,530 , Kebbi 2,438 (0.24 per cent), Zamfara 2,169 (0.22 per cent) and Yobe having 1,178 (0.12 per cent). The entries of Imo and Anambra States alone amounted to a total of 160,280 or 16.43 per cent of the total entry, with the remaining 34 states and the F.C.T. making do with the remaining 83.27 per cent. It should be noted, for the sake of emphasis, that Imo and Anambra States are in South-East Nigeria while Igbos make up about a quarter of the population of Delta State and Rivers State. Igbos in Delta State can be found in Agbor, Anioma, Asaba, Ibuzo, Ndokwa, Ogwashi Uku,Okpanam, Oshimili, etc. For long, there has been this erroneous notion created in the Nigerian media that the quest for intellectual improvement by sons and daughters of Igboland has been poor in recent times. However, statistics from JAMB and the West African Examinations Council (WAEC) as regards the registration of candidates from different states of the federation points to the contrary. The trend as regards the registration of JAMB students in the last five years has shown that the Igbo rank tops. In 2001 U.M.E. entries, according to states of origin, Imo State equally took the first position. It is equally noteworthy that the first position for the 2002 U.M.E. JAMB examination went to John Uchenna Efidi of Ebonyi State who scored 326. Chike Collins-Gregory Ndive from Anambra State came second with a score of 325 while Henry Tolulope Jibodu and Ashimuyi Babatunde Durojaiye (both of Lagos State) jointly took the third position by scoring 319.

My people,During the last census, it was obvious that awusa's have a hidden agenda when they shut down the inclusion on state of origin as one of the question. It was also very painful that some of our purpoted wise ones did not see this as a way of decimating igbo numbers, hence the call for a total boycot of the census. However, when it came to counting awusa women in purdah, it was agreed that the enumerators dare not enter the hidden rooms to count how many wives an awusa man has, but would rather take the word of the husband as to how many wives they have.Also, when the religion of folks were removed, it helped bolster awusa argument that there are more moslems than Christians.Nija is a mess and unless we all seek the total restructuring of that hell hole, we will always complain after the fact.

Date: Friday, February 11, 2011, 6:13 PMAll road the presidency of Nigeria runs through Northwest and Southwest, 50% of the voters are from these two regions of the country.The comments below, on the lowest registered voter count for ndi Igbo renews the pain and agony of the latest census reports showing the South East as the list in population, far behind the South South. The refusal of OBJ and his administration to allow Nigerians to indicate their state of origin on the census forms while not allowing them the option to become indigenes of their resident states in Nigeria is a classic example of Igbo suppression and hostile gerrymandering. The perspectives of the sad reality of the South East minority status presented in the comments by Inno Uzuh and Agumba Law (see below) offer some hope that all is not lost. In deed the Igbo pattern of migration for economic enhancement of self and family has put other ethnicities in Nigeria at a political disadvantage, if only the Igbo can respond with unity, to the tacit rejection of their cultural acceptance of one Nigeria, by their competitors. A single Igbo candidate for Nigeria's presidency will be the only candidate for that position easily meeting the requirement of 25 % in 2/3rds of the 36 states. This South East advantage can not be neutralized as long as Nigeria remains one nation, even with the most hostile policies put in place in every state to minimize Igbo success and progress in competitive private and public opportunities.Ndi Igbo just need to work on strategies to maneuver the anti Igbo economic and political policies installed through undemocatic channels in Nigeria. The greatest Igbo challenge in overcoming this new and recent reality of the Igbo being a political minority in Nigeria is the difficulty in post civil war South East to forge a common and unified strategy in their pursuit of regional or zonal interests in Nigeria. The other ethnic groups in Nigeria have since learnt that you can not easily crush the Igbo and their zeal to succeed.Joe Eto.Inno Uzuh @Elomba perspective:I truly feel your pain concerning the low voter registration recorded in igbo land. The truth is that a majority of our igbo men and women are domiciled outside igbo land. It's simple socioeconomic reality. That was why most people insisted that state of origin should be included in the census data in order to truly get a picture of the ethnic population of the constitution of Nigeria. Of course this suggestion was short down by the powers that be for a purpose. Truth is..when the votes for the presidential elections are counted, believe me , the effect of our population will be felt.Agumba Law:Let other tribes not gloat at the registration figures. 40% of Lagos Residents are Ndigbo..ditto in Kano, Jos and other places...No matter where they are domiciled, on election day,Ndigbo could still vote their interests.On the surface it would look as if Igbo have problem especially when taken from the point of view of Idowu BoboMr. Elombah's dire prediction was based on the publication of the registered voters by zone by our Independent National Election Commission which was published as follows:"…Ndigbo Nwere Problem!!!..." (Translation: the Igbo have problem)

Several things stand out from this analysis:
- NW (21%) of the population has 28% of registered voters 7 points higher than her share of population.
- NW registration (61%) is 20 points higher than the national average of 45.7%.
- SW with 19.7% of the population has 23.4 % of registered voters or 5 points higher than her share of the population.
- SW registered 54% of it citizens compared to the national average of 45.7% or 10 points above national average.
- SS and SE have the lowest registration percentage except for NE and considerably lower than their share of the population.
Compared with other data from the Nigerian government the oddity of the registration exercises become more apparent. Take a look at college enrollment table.This is just a one minute analysis of the published results. We shall look at the details as the registration exercise results are published. The State numbers would highlight where the most fraud was compiled as would city and constituency reports.
- The 2 zones with the highest percentage of college youths (SE 34% of all Nigerian college students and SS 25%) have the lowest number of registered voters. In other words college education is an impediment to participation in politics or access to political information. In no other place in the world has this phenomenon been observed.
- NW with a mere 5.3% of college enrollment has almost a 2:1advantage over SS in registration 61%:38%. Their youth have more access to political information than SS or are more politically aware.
- NC which has the highest level of college education in the North has the lowest level of registration for this election.
Areas of further research:Mr. Elombah and his Igbo compatriots would serve Nigeria better by purring into the statistics and proving them fraudulent. It will be much better than throwing up hands and saying that: "Ndiigbo nwere nsogbu." What Ndiigbo nwere is opportunity to unmask fraudulent practices in Nigerian polity.
- Comparison with prior registrations
- Comparison with the prior voting numbers
- The state registration currently with the amended voter registration in the rerun elections in Anambra, Ekiti and other states.
- Tax collection from the states such as number of payee
One can lie with statistics but such lies are often revealed by statistics.

Please don't stretch anything I say. I just want to heap it on the tribalist, Afis, who see ethnicity in everything in Nigeria. I hope the live coals I have on his head is burning him. I am not from Abia. Neither am I from Anambra. I am a Nigerian. The WAEC result is a national shame. With respect to what you wrote below, it is a universal phenomenon. I remember George Bush Jr once saying that even "C" students end up becoming POTUS.

Quote from below:
And another reason not to celebrate or gloat over the WAEC results in Nigeria is the following that was shared with me a few months ago:
"The brightest students in high school in Nigeria will end up attending universities and become professors, physicians, engineers, lawyers, nurses, bankers, etc.
The second tier of bright students will become entrepreneurs and administrators in the public and private sectors of the economy and occupy positions in which they would be the bosses responsible for the hiring and firing of the brightest of their classmates who have become professionals and professors.
Some of the third tier of Nigerian students on the academic scale would be those who either failed WAEC completely or failed to make the WAEC benchmark, but nevertheless manage to become rich politicians who will rule over the first and second tier of students who were much brighter than they were in primary and high schools and other former classmates who have entered less financially rewarding but nevertheless important vocations such as artisanship, mechanics, bricklayers etc.."
And who says democracy is a perfect form of government when it allows the near morons in the society to rule over those who are much brighter than they are!"--Ola

Please don't stretch anything I say. I just want to heap it on the tribalist, Afis, who see ethnicity in everything in Nigeria. I hope the live coals I have on his head is burning him. I am not from Abia. Neither am I from Anambra. I am a Nigerian. The WAEC result is a national shame. With respect to what you wrote below, it is a universal phenomenon. I remember George Bush Jr once saying that even "C" students end up becoming POTUS.

Wait a minute, 38,052 passed in Edo, 5,000 more than Abia, but it came third having 10,000 passed more than a state which has 28,379 (Anambra), if you bean counted the numbers!And this is the kicker: 68,173 STUDENTS PASSED IN LAGOS, AND IT CAME 6th.More students passed in Lagos more than the whole 53,000 that took the exam in Abia!I wonder what is the noise here?How high are the differences in the actual students that passed without throwing some "fools paradise" percentages?Out of over 1,000,000 students in Nigeria, about 500,000 passed in Nigeria as a whole. And Joe Attueyi the fake pastor and fake Nationalist, with another fake Nationalist called Vin Otuonye, are happy about Abia and Anambra.Who are they kidding?
UNQUOTEMay your tribe of thinkers increase tremendously! Of those who failed, some tried to cheat, and they would even have failed more. Of those who passed, quite a number of them would NOT have done so if they had not used "miracle centers."So, we should be concerned at:(1) the number who failed; both nationwide (1,029,871 failed out of 1,590,284 total candidates) and on a state-wise basis (eg, in my Ekiti State, 12,379 failed out of 21,333 total candidates), they are SIMPLY too many, and is a national crisis. We should always remember that some of the candidates who passed or failed in other states MAY be indigenes of Ekiti or other states.(2) of those who passed, where do they go next? Every year, our universities and tertiary institutes can only absorb 400,000 out of 1.5 million that take JAMB every year - and many of those absorbed are not into courses of their choice, but just want to get into university by any means necessary.So chest-beating over these numbers is egregiously jejune.....

Shaking his headSouth-eastern states lead as WASSCE releases 2015 May/June results
States in the South-eastern part of Nigeria have retained their lead as details of the May/June 2015 West African Senior School Certificate Examination results were made public on Thursday.
The region is leading in the performance chart of candidates who obtained credits in at least five subjects, including English Language and Mathematics. Abia State topped the chart with 33,762 of its 52,801 candidates.
In four Federal Government colleges, no candidate obtained five credits and above, including English and Mathematics.
The schools are the Federal Government Girls’ College, Bajoga, Gombe State; FGGC, Bauchi; FGGC Gboko, and the Federal Science and Technical College, Kafanchan.
To ensure university admission in the country, a student must obtain credits in five subjects and above, including English Language and Mathematics.

I have seen the overall performance of each state and the aggregatenumber school leaver passes produced by each of them .I like to congratulate the government of Lagos state for coming first withover 67000 passes even though they aren't the first in percentage term.I also like to congratulate the Edo state government for coming second,Kaduna state for coming third, Abia for being 4th and Rivers for being 5th .It's unfortunate seeing some former " frontline " states like Oyo and Osun atthe bottom of the ladder and hope the low passes would be thoroughlyinvestigated .

While I thank those that did well in the just released WASC examinations, I must point out that all 5 Igbo States made the top 10 and 8 out of the top 10 are from Eastern Nigeria. Ekiti came first for core Yoruba states at the 11th position. Kudos to the performing Governor Fayose. But where does all this lead to in Nigeria. Right now we have a President without WASC from Kastina which is number 33 on the list. Supreme court Justice from Gombe at 34. Vice President from Osun 29th position and so on. How does the scores reflect on the National equation.

PS: I remind everyone about my Education Template. We have ALWAYS to address each of these eleven items below HOLISTICALLY at each level of education:- students- academic staff- non-academic staff- curriculum- teaching and learning facilities- living and recreational facilities- finances- governance structures- community relations- standards, quality control, examinations and accreditation- post-graduation opportunities

There is nothing you wrote below that was not apparent before the fact to any student of public policyIn addition to yours below, one thing that has worked is the return of confiscated schools to their previous owners/ old students association. Just imagine that St Charles is returned to its previous proprietors. It's old students like Ayo will rally round to return old school to its old glory. This will not only relieve the state of some of its burden but will indirectly tax some of the citizens to give back to society through rebuilding their alma materSince Gregs was handed back to the Catholic mission, the old boys have spent in excess of N100 Million revamping its infrastructure and standards. States should borrow successful ideas from each other
You wrote:The most marginalized zones in Nigeria are the NW, NC and the NE. These zones need a "Marshall Plan"in the form of additional socio-economic stimuli or else they would continue to deter the socio-economic progress in the restof Nigeria.
My own suggestion is a 'marshal plan' for education nationally. Free , compulsory , quality education for every Nigerian child up to at least JS3. Compulsory in the sense that if your child is found begging or selling akara or not in school it will be a crime committed by the parent or guardianIf we have to tax fuel N10 per liter and tax every house higher than a bungalow and tax every car bigger than 1.2 liter engine and put 100% levy on private jets etc to fund it so be it. In one generation we will drastically reduce illiteracy. And who knows, may produce our own Bill Gates etcJoe
