In recent times, negative remarks like “if you still dey school for Naija better stop that rubbish” have surfaced, discouraging students from pursuing their education. While frustrations with Nigeria’s education system are valid, such statements overlook the undeniable value of education in shaping one’s future. Schools in Nigeria face challenges like strikes and poor infrastructure, but they still provide opportunities for growth, knowledge, and development.
Leaving school due to these difficulties can limit one’s options, but with education, students can unlock doors to better career prospects and personal advancement. Instead of abandoning education, the focus should be on improving the system and making it more conducive for learning. In the long run, education remains one of the most empowering tools anyone can have.
