Nigerian leaders and elites must recognize that a crime does not become legal because it is committed under the guise of democracy. So far, education has been neglected completely in Nigeria by the various governments to date. Institutions of learning, especially universities, are often closed due to teachers who go on strike because, in addition to being paid meager salaries, they are more often left unpaid for several months. Libraries are almost empty. Research is grossly neglected and under-funded.
Several universities have no access to the Internet.
Computers are miserably lacking in so many universities. Mr. President, I believe your record of achievement should be an example to emulate. This message should not be lost on Nigeria's political leadership. I humbly request that you share your remarkable record on education with the Nigerian political leadership. There has been increased access to technology, increased number of multimedia computers in the classroom, and technology training for teachers due to the creation of Technology Literacy Challenge Fund.
