State&Society
Last week, pictures of Katsina State governor Aminu Bello Masari went viral on social media. It was the occasion of his visit to Kayalwa Primary school and Government Day Secondary school Kofar Yandaka, all the two schools located within Katsina metropolis. The governor, though ostensibly for that purpose, seized the opportunity to directly interact with  teachers and students and see for himself the situation under which the teachers teach and the students learn. He made grand discoveries in the course. Some of the discoveries he seemed to have made were overcrowded classrooms, poor quality of teachers, fallen standard of teaching facilities, dilapidated infrastructure and so on and so forth.

REALITY NOT PROPAGANDA

Education is essential for a society to grow to its full potential. I have been following the dilemma happening in our education sector in Katsina State. My curiosities to delve further begin to raise some thought provoking questions regard the present Administration of RT. Hon Aminu Bello Masari Sincerity in solving the problems in education sector at a time when the proposed budget of Katsina State will soon become a law.

If I could remember vividly during his campaign, a committee of elites professional was formed to investigate and form a comprehensive report on the challenges, possible solutions to the problems in the education sector, but just of recent during his sudden unexpected visit to government schools across the state, Governor Aminu Bello Masari was shocked to see students sitting on the floor, classes overcrowded, Majority of students were absent. Masari was reported to have been displeased with the scary state/situation he met at the schools he visited.

The big question in Katsina education sector wouldn’t have been anything worse than the unwanted situation Masari encountered, which without no doubt further exposed the lack of credibility and sincerity of the final report submitted to Governor Masari by the same committee which HE the governor formed. So could it be the committee assigned with the responsibility to form a comprehensive report couldn’t find it worthy to include the above mentioned problems? OR the Governor couldn’t find the report worthy to spend time to go over it? (more…)

Time waits For No One

The political situation in Nigeria has come to a critical point where it is imperative for the leaders of all arms of government to unify themselves and put aside their differences for the interest of the nation and the masses they govern as leaders of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

The President has proven himself as person that is up to the task despite the impediments that come with old age and health issues. He has been able to restore stability by minimizing the security threats that has been devastating the country, especially in the north eastern part of the country and brought it to a minimum with the aid of his armed forces that have shown tremendous courage in fighting the insurgency that almost brought Nigeria to the brink of extinction and becoming a failed state. He has managed to create bilateral agreement with the international community that will enhance diplomatic relations with the so called developed countries in order to affiliate, interact and work together for Nigeria to be able to compete with new trend and systems of governments across the globe. The President has also been able to recover funds that have been looted from the country’s treasury by the corrupt officials of the past regime that contributed to the genocide that lead to the displacement of over 1.5 million citizens in Nigeria which has doubled the Rwandan genocide in the mid 90’s and decline of our nation’s social, economic, security and infrastructural facilities that were once the pride of not only the Federal Republic of Nigeria, but Africa as a whole. The new government being led by President Muhammadu Buhari is also doing his best to implement monetary policies which most Nigerians are eagerly waiting to see the results of the policy that has been put in place to achieve this particular endeavour to restore the value of the Naira.
