ERADICATING ILLITERACY IN AFRICA.

Education is the bedrock of any civilization !!!

Knowledge is power!!!

Illiteracy is a disease!!!  

                                                                    

Beloved, it is divinely decreed that churches, mosques & other worship centers in Nigeria, who fail to register students between the ages of 6 & 70 years, (who earnestly desire education but can not afford it) on or before Sunday 30th of June 2019 face the consequence of being blacklisted & permanently sealed up. A word is enough for the wise.  

Beloved, Felicitations to all our Muslim Brethren  on the successful completion of the Ramadan. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER and ILLITERACY IS A DISEASE. It is hereby decreed that all Nigerians between the ages of 6 & 70 who desire education, but cannot afford  it, should register at their nearest church or mosque on or before 30th June 2019 ,  & await further directives.

20 years in retrospect, the cost of running Democracy in Nigeria, does not justify our present situation today. As a matter of urgency, a 'think tank' of not more than 70 people should be chosen (on merit) to replace the unproductive legislative arm of Government & the funds saved thereon should be channeled into providing education in the chosen areas of interest for those between the ages of 6 & 70 years who desire but cannot afford it

In the light of the above, all Africans  between the ages of six  (6) and seventy (70)  years must be given the opportunity of education in their areas of interest.

A very high percentage of elders on the continent are uneducated because they lack the resources and opportunity to go to school at an earlier age.

A high percentage of the youths too are exposed to half – baked education because many  of them are uninterested in going to school as societal values passed down by the ruling political elite (especially in Nigeria) does not encourage education.

Those who are willing to improve on their education among the youths lack the resources to do so. Unfortunately many of the teachers in the schools are not well trained hence they cannot impart knowledge on the students since you cannot give what you don’t have.

This is why the Nigerian society is saddled with millions of half – baked graduates roaming the streets in search of non-existent jobs.

There has to be a revolution in the educational system in Nigeria and by extension Africa. We must make education not only compulsory but affordable and desirable to the average African.

Professionals and some key players in the educational sector are already focusing on steps for the Overhauling of the Educational Sector in Africa starting with Nigeria.

An Educational curriculum that will make Africa, the Center of Excellence and a Mecca of Knowledge and Education as in the earlier days of Howard University ( the most prominent black University in the world) is already being worked on to provide for a way forward.

A situation where products of our educational system cannot compete favorably with their peers in other parts of the world has to change.

Through the Backing, Favor and Grace of Olodumare, we are now the Superior race and we must lead the world in every sphere of life, most especially in education.

ARISE AFRICA ( THE SLEEPING GIANTS)

WAKE UP FROM YOUR SLUMBER

 LET US TEACH HUMANITY  A LESSON IN EDUCATION.

Very Truly Yours.
