This Is The Reality In Nigeria Today

Many of us are complaining of decline in Nigerian education but look at the crux of the matter:

Rewards in entertainment
MTN project fame: N7.5m + SUV;
Etisalat Nigerian Idol: N5m + multimillion Naira Contract
Glo naija sings: N5m + SUV
Gulder ultimate search: N10m plus endorsements;
Footballers earn millions of dollars
Politicians with SSCE earns millions

Rewards in education:
COWBELL Mathematics competition: just N100k
Spelling Bee: just N50k
School Scrabble: just N25k
CoolFM spelling game: just a goodie bag filled with Amila drink

Also, considering the fact that teachers and lecturers earn far less compared to what politicians earn. Then tell yourself the truth, why will the youths not neglect education for entertainment? By Wale Olajumoke
