The principal of the Prestigious Normal College, Lagos, Mr.
Basil Okenna has described the ongoing legal war between the federal government
and the senate leadership as “playing on
our intelligence”.
The Principal finds it difficult to understand why the Senate
should be so distracted from carrying out their legislative duties with a court
case where the initial police report never included the principal officers as
charged.
This he said during the 2016 graduation ceremony of the
school, he agrees with the present government in tackling corruption to a zero
level, but believes it should be done with all fairness. He wants government to
look into the selective war against corruption as alleged by some of the people
especially the opposition.
He was equally taken aback that the change he voted for and
so much cherished initially, has suddenly turned to a worst case scenario as
parents now finds it so difficult to pay their wards school fees.
The school’s graduating head boy, Master Ojo Oluwapelumi Samuel
informed our news crew that given the opportunity as the President of the
Country, he will actually deal with corrupt politicians to pave way for economic
growth of the nation especially in the education sector. He decried the
situation where our leaders send their children to ivy league schools outside the
Country which makes them treat the educational sector here with levity and
reckless abandon.
He was referring to the recent social media reports on the
oversea graduation of top Nigerian leaders children.
The Head girl, Miss Chidera Ikeh Jennifer, agreed with the head boy but added that corruption has destroyed Nigeria and reduced our greatness.
