Education helps countries grow economically since it is about getting knowledge and being able to apply it wisely to our lives and, at the same time, improving other people’s lives.
“Education is very important in modern society. One needs to learn about culture, history and other important aspects so that he/she would be able to contribute to the society. Education molds people into leaders not only with knowledge about (college) subjects, but it also shows them how to lead with emotions and true values. Educated people can easily differentiate between rights and wrongs, thus education helps to reduce crime rate. Bad events are happening around the world – only competent leaders can help guide us down a good and right path.
“Digital education helps connect with people and organizations around the world. Borders are no longer there. Being able to communicate and share opinions with people from other countries and cultures, widens horizons and helps us understand and appreciate each other”, Obidike said.
The industrial action taken by the Academic Union has stifled the academic activities of public universities since the month of February, several meetings that has witnessed dead ends shows unpreparedness of the government to return the students back to their lecture halls.
