NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
Recently the Minister of Education SAM EGWU in an interview said that Nigeria Graduates are half-baked. He is just one of a long list of old sKools who brand Nigeria Graduates as "Half-Baked".
Are Nigeria graduates really half-baked?
Assuming we really are,ONE WHOM LIES BLAME?
1. THE BREAD i.e Nigeria Graduates?
2. THE OVEN, i.e the universities,Polytechnics, colleges, Primary & Secondary Schools?
3.THE BAKERY WORKERS/EMPLOYEES, i.e Professors, Lecturers, teachers,etc? or,
4. THE BAKERY, i.e the Nigerian Educational System.
WHAT ARE YOUR VIEWS????
WHAT IS THE WAY FORWARD?

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
Honestly my brother am not surprised the minister of education said that.
They know how the system had deteorated over the years and the annoying thing is that it shouldnt come from their generation cos they made it the way it is.
There can only be one way forward, increase funding and put people who have the capacity to run the sector there. Most importantly put machinaries in place to reduce corruption (am of the school that says corruption cannot be stopped, so we should stop fooling our selves and stop wasting money on anti graft blah blah blah).
it is well

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
HONESTLY, IT IS INDEED A VERY SERIOUS MATTER THAT NEEDS SERIOUS AND URGENT ATTENTION.FROM ALL INDICATIONS, NIGERIAN GRADUATES(ATLEAST ABOUT 20PERCENT ARE HALF BAKED.)IT IS VERY OBVIOUS THAT THE FAULT IS FROM OUR LEADERS AND OUR SCHOOLS.THESE DAYS ALL WHAT OUR LECTURERS WANT IS JUST MONEY, MONEY, MONEY WITHOUT GIVING MUCH ATTENTION TO WHAT THEY ARE REALLY THERE FOR AND IF DRASTIC SOLUTION IS NOT TAKEN AM AFRAID.MAY GOD HELP US.

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
I no blame the minister,cos He was opportune to enjoy everythin for free, even Scholarships to school abroad.
If the yeye man 'll find himself in school in this our generation where everythin as fallin apart, the minister 'll not even qualify to be called half baked but a rotten flour that should be discarded into the recyclin bin. Now the old fool and others who share similar view with him should burry their heads in shame,cos their generation has failed woefully. appology to 'kongi man'

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
just like him well i don't ve there time they can say anything they like. just like ASUU is on strike now
-
Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
The minister'd be ashame to even be a minister of a half-baked educational system, but rather he grabbed it with open hands. "him be half-baked minister".
-
Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
I am now fully convinced that our leaders are senseless nuts, what is egwu doing now to improve on what he met at Education Ministry?
-
Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
It is not the problem of our educational system, but the question of who can make a change.
-
Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
my people, i agree with all of you. so far mr egwu has not done anytin and i mean anything to improve the lots of the educational sector, instead he is a party to a govt bent on crumbling and destroying the little left of the system.
ABEG THIS COUNTRY NEEDS CHANGE!!!

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
i do not want to believe that Nigeria graduates are half baked.if "full baked" SAM EGWU with all his so called education could not deliver the dividends of democracy in his state,what type of education did he acquire,is he not worst than a "half baked" graduate?please the man should go and sit down as he has nothing to offer.ORCHMAN

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
I don't blame our leaders when they say all that. In spite of the re branding campaign, where was Dora coming back from when she was thoroughly searched at the airport in the US? Her son's graduation from Chicago University...If i'm president, all public officers would have their children in Nigerian Universities and also visit Nigerian hospitals or quit their jobs. If our leaders don't believe in the project called Nigeria, should we? Half baked graduate fire...what errant nonsense.
-
Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
Imagine, M.D of a bakery(Sam Egwu) admit that, his product/bread(Graduate) are "half baked". If i were him, i will resign (Gbam). What are his plans to correct the issues? What are his plans toward ASSU strike? And he have the mind to say that Nig. graduate are half baked. Ohiuki ! Ebhe !
-
Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
Can you imagine such comment from a man in such position. He must be out of his senses. We need a revolution in this God forsaken country. Lets embark on it as a total change
-
Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
Where are his kids schooling? Where did he obtain his first degree if he has one? Is that the manner to address such an issue as that? He needs to go to the school of etiquette. Who cares? His time will soon pass. Period. Nigerian graduates are good, just give them the right environment.

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
Well, for me the system is still producing,we are still in good shape, if it continues like this and we the have baked are turned to be the MDs and BAKERY Workers am afraid the system will be worse than what is obtained in the Somalia. The NIGERIA issue is not what we can be discussing on a view per point, I think what we need is to sit down and constructively design a master plan coup for these fathers to be burnt and or burried. Then we may start back like Ghana, then we will have Nigeria must go (Ghana must go) I think then the left overs might start to think on a better way to move everything forward. I am just tired of thier selfishness.They had best schools, free education, 3 square meals/day, free accomondation, transport and perfonal dignity of labour unlike now that my mother cant even pay for her house rent despite the fact that she s been teaching since 1977. call me we need a coup(Tommy)

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
I`m not suprised cos we also have a half-baked ministers,senators,professors and generally a half-baked govt
-
Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
I sincerely think that the minister is half baked too.A minister that cannot speak fluently without an Igbo accent flawing its statements.Education in Nigeria may have deteriorated to some extent,but we still have seasoned lecturers and some good graduates lamenting in the labour market,because of what Sam Egwu and its likes have offer Nigerians-tribalism,nepotism,favouritism at the expense of the most qualified.Let the minisre bring its so called children from abroad,and lets bring some brillant Nigerian graduates,if they will not floor its children.Its a shame on the part of the minister,if he is good enough,why can't he come to a consensus with ASUU before they embark on strike.Shame to you Sam Egwu.

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
Well, i can't really blame them. Let them run their mouths anyhow. I am not half-baked. That's my stand.

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
what happpened to few that are fully baked,is this the way to justifying their inability to provide jobs for our Graduates. May God help us

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
The minister 4 education & all d rest like him r hypocrites. They commercialtze education by permitting random establishment of private universities where the federal and state one r ill managed, wat do they expect? How many pple now can afford proper education. Our lecturers r paid peanuts while senators cart away billions monthly,how do we expect school staff to face d task of grooming sound scholars instead of finding ways to make ends meet. In some instances our graduates r actually sound its just that employers of labour have this thing 4 foreign degrees even when d degree holders don't practically perform better than home graduates. One could go on and on, the fact is that the sate of education in Nigeria today is the fault of the state which has failed to provide the relevant framework within which all other activities including education should thrive. Our leaders have exalted material values above intellectual values so the pay attantion to how much cash they can carry & not what they can actually contribute to d nation, hence they have evolved a blue print to murder intellectual emancipation of the pple.As a graduate I am fully baked, I don't know about u...

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
i am not suprised @ al that a sam egwu who dosen't know his left from his right is saying this when he is supposed 2b busy tackling the ASSU problem.the truth of the matter is that we don't have purposeful leaders 'cause the nigeria system of half baked.
-
Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
Dr Sam Egwu is an outright half-baked PERSONALITY! What has he done to improve the standard of Education in Ebonyi State? Even as the incumbent Minister of Education,his ONLY achievement would be a DOOM to our HIGHER EDUCATION through incessant strike actions as a result of non-payments of benefits,inadequate frastructural facilities amongst others, to OUR LECTURERS.

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
Yes, i agree we're 'half-baked', but i think he's forgetting that he also has the 'half-baked' gene in him too, coz i'm very sure he did his primary school in naija. Anyway, as the Edu. Minister, lets see the changes he's going to make in the baking process. If he fall his hands, then him mouth go close n na him shame go kash :-X! ???!

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
WE ARE NOT DISPUTING THE FACT, BUT WHO IS TO BLAME? THE SO CALLED LEADERS.
THE LEADERS SHOULD TRY AND BE FAIR TO NIGERIANS AND SHOW A GENUINE COMMITMENT TOWARD BUILDING A BETTER NIGERIA.
INFACT, NON OF THE NIGERIA LEADER HAVE A GENUINE INTEREST OF ORDINARY NIGERIAN AT HEART. EVEN THE MINISTER OF EDUCATION HIMSELF, HOW MANY OF HIS CHILDREN ARE SCHOOLING IN NIGERIAN UNIVERSITY?

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
the problem with these lousy opportunist in government, whom have forgotten their painful past when they start eating with both hands is that, they just come up in the public air and say this rubbish that they are made of.
are their chilldren better than any of us if given the same level playground. forget that coorupt politician minister, tyhey are the problem of our countries education system. ask him as a governor what value did he add to the sector, and even now as a minister what plans does he have.
keep this prophessy , he will end in handciffs like balogun, corrupt.
forgot the clown and let s talk how to make a living.
is his children a member of this job seeking site?
God bless you all

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
The same set of politicians have been ruling us for over 30 years, and if there is a problem with the system then they caused so he is not the right person to say that, because he should be ashamed that he has been in the system and his presence has not been felt, the problem is that we are putting round pegs in square holes, what qualifies him to be a minister of education? I don't let this things they say bother me, cause they keep listing problem without provering solution, so the little you have, you spend to develop urself. we the youths hold the change for this country, and soon we'll take it.

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
Like you suggested it's a multifaceted problem. From the graduate to the school, lecturers, down to administrators (govt. and governing councils of school) like him.
But i think it started with our rulers who REFUSED to see the school as a developing centre for the country's economy. Today what do we have, as a result of that,l ecturers selling 2-paged document as manuals/textbooks, undergraduates who can't spell their own name and are so specialized in COPYING wrong matric numbers of fellows in exam hall coming tops in results.
I remember a case where one of my lecturer said "if he doesn't sell those "manuals" is it groundnuts or pepper that he will sell in the school?"

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
Sam Egwu is indirectly telling nigeria*s that he is half baked and so he is not qualified to be a minister for education

Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
DON'T BLAME THE ABAKALIKI MAN THAT IS SURPOSED TO BE INSPETING A RICE FARM/MILL, WHO OUT OF THE FAVOUR OF SICK GOVERNMENT INCHARGE OF SICK COUNTRY, MANAGED TO GET TO THE SEAT.
HE SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF BECAUSE HE IS A DISAPPOINTMENT TO THE EDUCATION SECTOR. HE HAS NO PLAN FOR HIS MINISTRY AND HIS MINISTRY WILL NEVER WORK ACCORDING TO PLAN.
-
Re: NIGERIA GRADUATES- ''HALF-BAKED''?
IT IS NO NEWS TO ME NOR TO ANYONE, BUT HE SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF COMING ON AIR TO MAKE SUCH STATEMENT. IS HE NOT PARTY TO THOSE WHO DONT WANT ANYTHING TO WORK IN THIS COUNTRY, INFACT, HE SHOULD RESIGN HIS APPIONTMENT AS A MIN.
