Enrol your children in schools or go to jail – Senate bill

Enrol your children in schools or go to jail – Senate bill

The Senate has passed for first reading a bill that recommends a fine of N50,000 to parents who default in providing their children with primary and secondary school education.

The Red Chamber also recommended free meals for every child in the country.

The bill proposed by Senator Orji Kalu titled, ‘Compulsory free Universal Basic Education Act 2004, Section 2’ states that every government in Nigeria shall provide free, compulsory and universal basic education for every child of primary and junior secondary school age.”

The act further states that “Every parent shall ensure that his child or ward attends and completes his primary school education and junior secondary school education by endeavouring to send the child to primary and junior secondary schools.”

“The Act further states that stakeholders in education in a local government area shall ensure that every parent or person who has the care and custody of a child performs the duty imposed on him under section 2(2) of this Act.”

The act further noted that a parent who contravenes the earlier prescription should be liable, on the first conviction, to be reprimanded.

“On a second conviction, a fine of N2,000 or imprisonment for a term of one month or both; and on subsequent conviction, to a fine of N5,000 or imprisonment for a term of two months or to both.”

The Senate, however, in its amendment, proposed N50,000 fines, instead of the N5,000 previously stated in the Act.

It stated, “A person who receives or obtains any fee contrary to the provisions of subsection (1) of this section commits an offence and is liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding N10,000 or imprisonment for a term of three months or to both.

“Every parent shall ensure that his child receives full-time education suitable to his age, ability and aptitude by regular attendance at schools.”

However, the Senate proposes, N100,000 in replacement of the N10,000.

The Senate proposed, “Section 3(2) of the Principal Act is amended by deleting N10,000 and inserting N100,000.”

Responding to this development, the Programme Coordinator for Basic Education at Reform Education, Nigeria, Ayodamola Oluwatoyin, in an interview with reporters, noted that while the move by the lawmakers seems commendable, there should be an investigation into the additional charges by the public schools across the country.

  1. Now adding this to a short list of sites I would defend in a conversation about the modern web, and a look at coremerge reinforced that defence list, the few sites that serve as evidence the web can still produce good things are precious and this one has clearly joined that small list of exemplary sites.

  2. Took a few notes from this post, the points are easy to remember without needing to come back and check, and a look at everoakmarket added a couple more, the kind of place that sticks in the memory long after the browser tab has been closed for the day which says a lot really.

  3. Now considering whether the post would translate well into a different form, and a look at bondedpartnerships suggested similar versatility, content that could move into other media without losing its substance is content that has been built around ideas rather than around format and this site reads as idea first throughout posts.

  4. Picked up on several small touches that suggest a careful editor, and a look at midtownmeadow suggested the same hand at work across the broader site, editorial consistency at a granular level is one of the strongest signs that an operation is serious rather than just hobbyist and this site reads as serious throughout.

  5. Беттеры, отзовитесь кто откуда. То вообще доступ к аккаунту без причин закрывают, Искал реально долго, перепробовал кучу сомнительных вариантов до тех пор, не наткнулся на сервис, который работает стабильно и честно, начиная от удобного интерфейса и заканчивая официальной лицензией.

  7. Now planning to write about the topic myself eventually using this post as a reference, and a look at nextclicker would also serve in that future piece, content that becomes raw material for my own writing rather than just informing my reading is content with multiplicative value and this site is generating that multiplicative effect.

  8. Halfway through reading I knew this would be one to bookmark, and a look at thinkmoveadvance confirmed that early intuition, when bookmark intent forms before finishing a post you know the writing has cleared a quality bar that most content fails to clear and this site has cleared it on multiple visits already.

  9. Halfway through I knew I would finish the post, and a stop at bondedlinkage also held me through to the end, content that signals its quality early and then sustains it is content with real internal consistency and this site has clearly figured out how to maintain quality from opening sentence through to closing thought.

  10. Felt the post had been quietly polished rather than aggressively styled, and a look at startbuildingclarity confirmed the same understated polish, sites whose quality reveals itself slowly rather than announcing itself loudly are the kind I trust more deeply because the trust is not based on first impressions of marketing but actual substance.

  11. Worth marking the moment when reading this clicked into something useful for my own work, and a look at bondedcapitalflow extended that practical click, content that connects to my actual life rather than just being interesting is content with the highest kind of value and this site is generating that connection at a high rate.

  12. Skipped the social share buttons but might come back to actually use one later, and a stop at corebridgebond extended that share urge, content that triggers genuine sharing impulses rather than performative ones is content that has actually moved me and not many posts in a typical week do that for me actually.

  13. Appreciate the thoughtful approach, the writer clearly took time to make this readable for someone who is not already an expert, and a look at bondfirm kept that going nicely, easy on the eyes and easy on the brain which is always a winning combination when reading on a busy day.

  14. Decent post that improved my afternoon a small amount, and a look at northshorefinds added a bit more to that, sometimes the small wins online add up over time and a useful site like this one is the kind of place that contributes consistently to those small wins for me lately across many different topics I follow.

  15. A welcome reminder that thoughtful writing still happens online, and a look at mistspireemporium extended that reassurance, the modern web makes it easy to forget that careful writing exists and finding sites that practice it is a small antidote to the cynicism that builds up from too much exposure to algorithmic content.

  16. Liked the natural conversational tone throughout, never stiff and never overly casual either, and a stop at digitalbuyingzone kept that comfortable middle ground going, finding a tone that respects the reader without becoming distant or overly familiar is harder than it sounds and this site nails that balance consistently across many different pieces.

  17. A quiet piece that did not try to compete on volume, and a look at coastlinecraftco maintained that selective approach, sites that publish less but better are increasingly rare in an environment that rewards volume and this one has clearly chosen quality cadence over quantity which is a brave editorial decision in current conditions.

  18. Now considering carefully how to share this site with the right audience rather than broadcasting widely, and a look at modernbuyingstore extended that careful sharing impulse, content worth sharing carefully rather than spamming is content that has earned a higher kind of recommendation and this site has earned that careful shareability throughout pieces.

  20. Skipped the comments to avoid spoilers and came back later to find them genuinely worth reading, and a stop at optimumbond extended that surprised respect, when the discussion below a post matches the quality of the post itself you have found something special and this site appears to attract that kind of audience.

  21. Thanks for the breakdown, it gave me a clearer picture of something I had been confused about for a while now, and a stop at crocboard closed the remaining gaps in my understanding nicely, no need to hunt around twenty other articles to put the pieces together which is a real time saver.

  22. Reading this brought back an idea I had set aside months ago, and a stop at opalcrestoutlet added more substance to that idea, content that revives dormant projects in my own thinking is content with serious creative value and this site is contributing to my own work in ways I had not expected when first clicking through.

  23. Worth a slow read rather than the fast scan I usually default to, and a look at northwaybond earned the same slower pace from me, content that resets my reading speed downward is content with substance worth absorbing and this site has produced that effect on me multiple times now over the last week here.

  24. Reading this on a difficult day was a small bright spot, and a stop at wildstoneatelier extended that brightness, content that improves a hard day is content that has earned a particular kind of place in my reading habits and this site is occupying that uplifting role for me today which I appreciate clearly.

  25. Just wanted to drop a quick note saying this was a useful read on a topic I have been circling, no fluff, and a stop at provenbond added a few extra points that fit the same simple style which makes the whole site feel coherent rather than thrown together by many different writers with different goals.

  26. Skimmed first and then went back to read carefully, and the careful read paid off in places I had missed, and a stop at buyingsolutionshub got the same treatment, the rare site whose content rewards a second pass is content I want more of in my regular rotation rather than disposable single read articles.

  27. I came here looking for a quick answer and ended up reading the whole post because it was actually interesting, and after starfalltrading I had a much fuller picture, no stress and no confusion just a clear walk through the topic that made everything fall into place without much effort.

  28. Now I want to find more sites like this but I suspect they are rare, and a look at clearpathbond extended that thought, the few sites that meet this quality bar are precious specifically because they are rare and finding others like them is one of the ongoing projects of careful internet curation across the years.

  29. Clean writing, easy to read, and never tries too hard to impress, that combination is harder to find than people think, and after my time on clickfactor I am sure this site treats its readers well, no flashy tricks just useful content done right which is honestly all I want online.

  30. Now wondering how the writers calibrated the level of detail so well, and a stop at longtermcapital continued the same calibration, the right level of detail is one of the harder editorial calls in any piece and this site has clearly developed an instinct for it through what I assume is years of careful practice publicly.

  31. A piece that brought a sense of order to a topic I had been finding chaotic, and a look at directunity continued that organising effect, content that imposes useful structure on messy subjects is doing genuine intellectual work and this site is providing that organisational function across multiple posts I have read recently here.

  32. Reading more of the archives is now on my plan for the weekend, and a stop at bondedkeystone confirmed the archive worth the time, the rare archive worth a dedicated reading session rather than just casual sampling is the rare archive of serious work and this site has clearly produced enough of that work to warrant the deeper exploration.

  34. Glad I gave this fifteen minutes rather than the usual three minute skim, and a look at wildlanternmarket earned the same investment, time spent on quality content is rarely wasted but the reverse is also true and learning which sites deserve which kind of attention is part of being a careful online reader.

  35. Reading this in segments because the day was busy, and the post survived the fragmented attention well, and a stop at bridgeworth held up similarly under interrupted reading, content that can withstand modern distracted reading patterns rather than requiring a perfect block of focused time is increasingly the kind I prefer.

  36. Thanks for laying this out in a way that someone newer to the topic can follow, and a stop at willowtideboutique kept that accessibility going, writing that meets readers at different experience levels without condescending is hard to do well and the writers here have clearly thought about who they are writing for.

  37. Pleasant surprise, the post delivered more than the headline promised, and a stop at clicksource continued that pattern of under promising and over delivering, the rarest combination on the modern web where most content does the opposite by promising the world and delivering thin recycled summaries instead each time you click on something interesting.
