 Readers’ Comments By Prof MK Othman After some months of not publishing the readers' comments because of a series of events happening in Nigeria in a quick session, I must share some of the comments today. Still, due to space limitations, only very few can appear. However, all comments are essential, and readers can access such comments on my FB (mkothman@yahoo.co.uk), Twitter (@mkothman1), Blog (www.deepthoughtwithmkothman.blogspot.com), and Instagram (profmkothman) Handles. Happy reading    School System in Nigeria: Education without Character? Prof, this is a well-written piece. Unfortunately, Education is now in a sorry state.

With the possible exception of Maiduguri town, no town or village is safe in Borno state. There are several “no-go” areas in Borno, Adamawa, and Yobe states. From 2011 to date, about 37,500 people were killed and 2.5 million displaced people in the Chad Basin and the entire northeast (https://www.cfr.org/global-conflict-tracker/conflict/boko-haram-nigeria) Among the high-profile

ABU@60: Giant, Still Briskly Walking in the Right Direction

 ABU@60: Giant, Still Briskly Walking in the Right Direction By Prof. M. K. Othman On Tuesday, 4th October 2022, my Alma Matter, my means of livelihood, Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) Zaria was 60 years. As we fondly call it, the great ABU has transformed from a regional citadel of learning to the most cosmopolitan, diverse, nationalist breeding ground for the intelligentsia. Thanks to its founding fathers who had a clear vision of how knowledge could conquer the world without firing a shot.  Their vision made them realize achieving excellence in education requires merit, hard work, and dedication. There should be no room for nepotism, racism, tribalism, and religious inclination. This vision became the central pillar on which ABU was built. 60 years later, this academic octopus has lived up to its founding fathers’ vision and expectations. ABU is no doubt an icon of nation-building considering its giant contributions since its establishment. The University with two campuses, occupying
