BOKO HARAM'S 'WESTERN EDUCATION' IS DEAD

In the west, the traditional educational system was designed during the industrial revolution, when the masses moved into urban areas to work in factories.

They created an effective method of training the following generations of factory workers. Children were instructed to memorize and regurgitate facts – to stop working when the bell rings – to sit in nice, neat rows of desks and ask for permission to move. It is no longer relevant in our modern culture.

Today, successful people work on projects not factory lines. They are rewarded for creating things rather than following orders. And, they are expected to adapt quickly to change within their profession, rather than working at the same job for 50 years. As we peek into the uncertain future of the 21st century.... So Boko Haram please explain the education you are rejecting because western education is not what we are getting here with the mediocre education system we have in Nigeria.
