I think every student who graduates with a First Class from any Nigerian university should have 100% of their school fees refunded, plus a ₦1 million excellence bonus.
I came across a similar incentive model in the Netherlands, and it made me think.
Imagine the message it would send: Hard work pays. Excellence is rewarded.
Instead of only celebrating academic success with certificates, why not attach real value to it?
It could fundamentally change how many students approach their education.
Please watch this video of the interview done with Monsignor (professor) Obiora Francis Ike.
He is a Roman Catholic priest, a scholar and human rights activist.
Professor Obiora is the founder of the Switzerland based Catholic institute for development justice and peace.
The Catholic priests are not slowing down and I’m absolutely loving it.
Yesterday, my mum got ordained as a Deaconess in the Redeemed Christian Church of God.
Exactly 30 years ago she performed Hajj as a Muslim, but today she is not just a born again Christian, she is also a Deaconess.
Her story is inspiring and a fulfillment of the Biblical saying: "for the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all mankind".
