Education from a mirror: the Nigerian perspective

Nigeria, experiences a meager development in its educational system--a lack of management and cultural policy to ignite the minds of students who patronize the schools built for learning.
There have been sequel improvements, which contributed to the development of moral values and increase in employment. But it has not been efficient, because the notions set therein can not raise anything when commissioned for a long period.
"Education is God's given leverage to man, which is the ability to know, and to be acquainted with a literal kind of knowledge." If it's therefore as defined, then the purpose of education is to "know." On the basis of formal learning, most schools in Nigeria do not display the right conduct; hence, there's a decrease in the criteria of getting to fulfill the ultimate purpose of learning.
Education promotes change, influences attitude, and creates extensive socio-economic opportunities between global and individual parties. But despite the resolution we embrace annually, there's still a huge loss in fundamental education, and its ability to restore a unanimous growth in the streets of Nigeria.
When a community official, a policy maker, or the Federal government makes a budget to enhance and educate young girls and women in rural communities; the reality of what happens next is the renovation of classrooms.... These measures are profound, but of what importance is renovation, when the school can not guarantee a job in the end.

If education is the key to success, then, what's the role of a school?

In Nigeria, a general myth connote a downgrade with youths who possess no qualification, in terms of education--thus, youths from rural communities struggle to obtain quality education; with a "No Job," as an end result. the Nigerian economy and its policy have lost is her inability to "truly" define what Education is, and how it will, in due course, Influence, Develop and Elevate her current erratic situation to a level of satisfaction and understanding.
The problem is not a starting point, it is sustaining what has been built from its primordial source. I believe the main purpose of going to school is not only to get a degree, it is to get "knowledge." And once this concept is defined, its application can be utilized in both rural and urban communities to make change, and influence the lives of  masses.

Education: the future of tomorrow.

Education as the future of tomorrow, begins with procreation.
Procreation, deals with re-birth. A remaking of a previously existing fact, a new concept given birth to. Pro-creating education defines its true policy; it is thus, a renovation of its old tenets with a present defined concept. Procreation, affects Policy: the attitude at which a present educational system runs; how it affects the people who patronize schools; and how education can tremendously transform the agenda of a given economy. Re-organizing an educational system means, re-energizing its current status, which is infused in the quality of decisions made. Also, in procreation, the Environmental value or standard of a country, a community or group is influenced. The environment is where education began. It is education's rightful foundation. Procreation affects these areas with new policies and themes on how the environment should see itself in-line with education, and promote schooling. When an eccentric decision is made on education; which sets a mutual understanding between the school and the environment; faults are laid, and the basic aim of this agenda becomes a bygone story. Thus, procreation should begin by setting new ideas and thoughts towards "Fundamental Educational-Growth," with the right concepts and measures, geared first, towards the development of self, and increase in learning.
