EDUCATION IN MY HOME: WHAT A MISPLACED PRIORITY

Image
Mine is a home with misplaced priority, A home that minority enjoy at the expenses of majority. Where education is of no concern. Where the selfish law makers decides the faith of the home. But do they still remember that education remain the key? Do they still remember that for every Home to be developed it must attend certain level of education? Lenin named illiteracy as enemy number one but in my home it appears to be at the button of the ladder. Education in my home has already got negative connotation by those who will promote it. This resulted in the poor becoming poorer and the rich becoming more richer by the day. It has already been hegemonically planned that for you to attain certain level you must have certain qualification, but as a poor citizen, how can you gain the required certificate?? You don't have the financial support to study in private nursery or primary school nor secondary, talkless of tertiary institution or perhaps moving abroa...

DO YOU KNOW OF SUNSHINE JOURNALISM ??

Saeed Kamalu bako Many Nigerian government that came and gone constantly accused the media of being unpatriotic. Saying they focus more on the negative reports about the country, thus feeding the international media with negative connotation on the country and the possible angle to depict Nigeria negatively. Sunshine journalism is when media portrayals of a society is always in good aspect (positively), optimistic, etc. This make the media to go with the hide of those with discretionary spending power. This also make the role of the media of being the defender and upholder of public interest be relegated to the background and  capitalist takes over which will make the media supportive to only it's market and shareholders. Mondli Makhanya, SANEF chairman, said African media need to tell African stories with a great quality but in free environment " A free media is good for your brand and it's future and development" he said. Most of the people are of the opin...

MY FINAL SEMESTER,THE BEGINNING AND THE END OF MY CAREER.

Image
Saeed Kamalu Bako. It was around 5pm, the sun was almost going down and Kamal was sitting in his room off campus. Kamal since his 100 level always lived off campus with the justification that people in the hostel were not good to live with and he is a type that talk less. Thinking about his preparation of graduating now that it is the final semester, Thinking about how all his friends wanted him to mingle with them socially and how he resisted and Maryam has always been on his neck on asking him about going to a party together but the response was always negative, so many girls also have tried on several occasions but haven't succeeded. Kamal planned his life on the path of school before relationship, to the extend that he has no girlfriend and just stick to his books. Just at the moment he was thinking, another thought came over "why will I finish, knowing only one way, why won't I try the other just for this short period of time? After all, I am graduating th...

WHY CAN'T THEY FEEL IT??? I wish I could live to see my kids. I wish i can tell them a story. I wish the title of my first pulished book will be the biography of a man. A man that is one in a million. I call him my leader. He is one of a kind, a true definition of sacrifice for brotherhood. A man whose story will be motivational. A man whose story may earn me my first literary award. A man who "propagandocracy" of the propagandists cause him no harm. A man who Excel in adminitrative excellence. Who am I talking about? My wish is to write on AHMED MININ NAGYA Not only U13 nor MACOSA, not only social science nor ABU but the world of leadership must recognize man of your calibre. I can't say you are rich but you are influential, your out look make them think otherwise. Can I say they are jelous? Or are they  wishing to be like you? Let them know that time will come when boys will be men, let them know that they must strive harder to follow the foot print....

DEAR OUR MOTHER (NIGERIA)

Image
DEAR OUR MOTHER ( NIGERIA ) Saeed Kamalu Bako Your effort of making us one is nearly been jeopardized. You gave birth to so many households, 3 of which are the giants; the North, the West and the East. Who were then showered with blessings, and you also taught them how to know their differences and shun them. But time has come when the difference has been notified and the center can no longer hold. There are now factions, all claiming to be the ones maintaining the survival of the home. The North claiming with their population, vast land for agriculture to feed the nation and some mineral resources, the East with the black goal who also claims the country depends on, and of course the West claiming they have the industries, cocoa and other resources. The Middle Belt trying to create a faction from the north. Could that be because the majority of the Northern population are Muslims? If there will be a division, where will they be? The West, East or stand on t...

ALMAJIRI SYSTEM AND THE FALLING OF THE NORTHERN FAMILY

ALMAJIRI SYSTEM AND THE FALLING OF THE NORTHERN FAMILY By Saeed Kamalu Bako The almajiri system of education as practise today in the northern Nigeria is a completely bastardized system compared to the form and conditions under which the system was operating and its output during the pre colonial period. The system just take another dimension as the result of the British invasion to colonized the northern Nigerian territories and took control of the state treasury. With loss of support from the government and the helpless emirs, the almajiri system thus collapsed like a pile of cards. The responsibility of the Almajiri was then taken over by the local scholars who deemed it a moral and religious duty to educate these pupil for the sake of Allah. Although there was scarsity of funds and over whelming number of pupil to cater for, the system continued to flourish with the support of the immediate community and begging was still not a norm. Instead, they restor...
