One thing I noticed while studying countries with some of the world's best public education systems is this:
In Germany, many public office holders confidently enroll their children in public schools because they trust the system.
In Nigeria, most public office holders enroll their children in private schools or in schools abroad while the public schools they oversee continue to deteriorate.
That has to stop.
You cannot build a world-class public education system when the people responsible for it have no personal stake in its success.
Imagine the speed of reform if every governor, commissioner, local government chairman, legislator, and senior public official knew their own children would sit in those same classrooms, learn from those same teachers, and use those same facilities.
Nothing creates accountability faster than shared consequences.
A bond that can never be broken.❤️
