This math teacher, Anthony Iwegbu, walked up to me today to tell me that he is the first in his lineage to have gone abroad. He said that bringing him to Rome, all expenses paid, will change his life forever as a teacher.

At first I didn’t believe it, but I’m happy that his effort as a teacher has made that possible for him.

I really love to see our teachers excel. They have been neglected for so long.

This is one reason why Nigeria's public policies are always flawed.

With no disrespect to Dr. Joe himself, but policies shouldn't be based on individual ideas or what a group of elites considered progressive or "the brightest way of doing things".

It should be based on collected data, survey, democratic inputs and feedback from the populace. People sitting in an air conditioner filled room can't just assume what is best for the mass population in the country.

It's a monopolisation of abstract and pedestrian knowledge that no single human being or a group of politically privileged human beings can know.

On NYSC reforms, what's the data that show that the current system isn't working? And if any, where's the data that indicate that the new system will solve the identified problem? What research was carried? Where's the democratic input from the people who are currently in the system (the corp members)? Where's the feedback mechanism that made this new approach justifiable?

Without any of this, we just propose ideas that sound and look good on paper only for it to become adversely inapplicable to those who the ideas directly affected.

The same way I asked Mr. Oyedele then what data was driving his tax reform bill, and the proposed increment in VAT and CGT in the bill, only to have the host and the co-host kick me out of the space.

Our intellectual and political elites must be humble enough to know that not all ideas in their head are made of gold.

Else, we continue to fix what necessarily isn't broken.
