Media personality Joy Isi Bewaji wrote a post criticizing Nigeria's educational system and how it is no longer relevant in shaping children for today's world.
The thought-provoking post points out how Nigerian children are still taught things like how to lay tables in school, whereas, in America, a 13-year-old boy works in Google office and is well versed in subjects relating to technology. She went on to suggest that schools should teach children more practical things using real-life success and failure stories so they can learn what works and what doesn't in the real world.
The writer went further to address Nigerian youths who spend time on social media arguing about irrelevant things, like who slept with who and who did what, when their counterparts in other countries are breaking boundaries.
The post below will make you think and is a must-read.
