CAN WE HONOUR THEM AND DISPLAY ALWAYS THE VALUE THEY PLANTED IN US, OUR DEAR TEACHERS?

COVID 19, Pandemic has unveiled new normal, and if you like to add, new abnormal. Among the things it unveiled are lock down and forced school holiday; that continued after lock down was lifted, in Nigeria. The forced school break is revealing the unprepared, ill-equipped and weak capacity of families, in the hallowed call of taking care of children of school going age. The rising incidences of rape and other forms of crime against, and perpetrated by children of school going age are common knowledge.

Very quickly, let me point out that this piece is not about the rising spate and incidences of crime. Peoples outcry against increasing cases of banditry, kidnap, armed robbery, murder and others are already in the public domain. What the people await is what and how the law enforcement agencies will exterminate or curtail drastically the already very bad situation. Before then, the lawful thing the commoner is expected to do is to volunteer what the authorities have always tagged relevant information. Whatever it means, remains subject of major debate that may never end anytime soon. I say this aware that in most cases, it is not the exhibit, or the crime that is relevant, but the personality of the criminal or the reporter.
