Something about this post reeks of inferiority complex.

You are indirectly trying to say Nigeria educational standard is inferior. You are indirectly saying having a British teacher is better than having a Nigerian.

I won't be surprised if their tuition fees are in British pounds.

Our ancestors were forced to pick up the English language and the ways of the whiteman. But today, we are the ones even paying to do so.
They are using the British curriculum so,it'makes sense to use British teachers who ed through that system and has been practicing it and not a Nigerian.

Multi national establishments in Nigeria came with their key staffs while employing others here.
That doesn't means that their host is inferior

Do they recognize the language of your ancestors internationally,how many books did they wrote with your ancestors language.what meaningful education do your ancestors have or ed out to you.

They took you from the primitive state your ancestors were to a more advanced state, through education.

The Blackman(Africans) would have languish in eternal primitivity, poverty and lack

Why is Nigeria so foolish. Don't you guys understand that this is modern day slavery. The British will come teach you then give one way ticket to escape Nigeria free of charge, you sit down and smile that you've made it. My dear brother you are a slave. These guys have designed necessary technique to take everything that you have.

The British brought Christianity but you've not learnt anything since then. Ask yourself how many countries are bringing there school program into Nigeria. Is it not clear to you all that you are still being colonised?

So expensive, when is not that they will format their brains and pour all the syllabus there and they will become the most intelligent. What we need is technical school that is standard and of world class, Nigeria need to be productive, manufacturing and technology savvy men

All these are in pursuit of money! The best education for your children are in missionary schools. The funny part is that they are cheap in relative to what they offer! Take a look at top performing schools in the country right now.
I agreed with you, missionary school. Despite being a Muslim, I went to one. It was one of the best school around, most students clear their WAEC inc. Mathematics and English. C&S Movement, U.M.C.A & Baptist. Then private school like Goshen & Adesoye college & Roemichs, but they are expensive

You don’t tell people to shut the f up for expressing their opinion, how will they get to learn if they shut up? our traditional family vocational education system is more rewarding because it’s occupational based , compared to the adopted British system that only teach you to be diplomatic and tricky , we used to have family of fishermen, family of black smith, family of farmers, family of traders, family of house molders and herders, with these occupations reflecting in the family names, e.g Odewale , Agbede, Agbekoya, Ayan who raise their kids in line with these skill from childhood , all the British education system has dismantled to hand you the “ 8AM -4PM Yes Sir, slavery mentality

But

I still prefer the German , Japanese and the Chinese system which are practical oriented

How many Nigerians engineer has British education system produced that are useful to Nigeria, continuous promotion of the British education systems is Neocolonialism

I feel so sorry for you. No wonder your forefathers were deceived so easily. You have a brain but you don't use it. Go back and check the underlining word..

Simple reason is money and retaining international students. Nigerian parents are reconsidering their schools in the UK based on visa and travel cost, and the madness invading British youth.

If the people are not interested in having their commonwealth used to hire teachers for the free education of all children in quality public schools, they should blame themselves for opening up their asses to be violated.

Why would they come to a country with the highest number of children out of school and even those in school are in private establishments that are hardly supervised by the state and local governments?

You are very myopic

When the British was around, did you have 24/7 electricity?
did you have inter city rail transport asides the rail system for their selfish interest?
Did you have quality education without religious requirements?

During the Biafra civil war, the whole world witnessed an unprecedented level of technological innovation among the igbos.
if the Nigerian state had jettisoned marginalization, and keyed into their idea, in the spirit of the 3R, you would have been far more developed now.


Selfish development is No development
