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. Reading this prompted me to dig out an old reference book related to the topic, and a stop at professionalbondsolutions extended that connection to other sources, content that connects me back to my own existing knowledge rather than asking me to forget it is content with continuity and this site has that continuous quality.

  3. Worth a quiet moment of recognition for the consistency I have noticed across multiple posts, and a stop at strategicgrowthalliances continued that consistent quality, sites that maintain quality across many pieces rather than peaking on one viral post are sites with real editorial discipline and this one has clearly developed that discipline carefully.

  4. Reading this felt easy in the best way, no friction and no confusion at any point, and a stop at clicktofindsolutions carried that same comfort across more pages, the kind of editorial flow that lets you absorb information without fighting the format which is increasingly hard to find on the open web today across topics.

  5. Reading the writers other posts after this one suggests the quality is consistent rather than peak, and a stop at corporatecollaborationnetwork confirmed the consistent quality reading, sites that hold the same level across many pieces rather than peaking on a few are sites with sustainable editorial discipline and this one has clearly developed that.

  6. Honest assessment is that this is one of the better short reads I have had this week, and a look at clicktoexploremarketideas reinforced that, the bar for short content is low because most of it sacrifices substance for brevity but this site manages both at once which is harder than it sounds for most writers attempting it.

  7. Liked the way the post handled the final paragraph, no neat bow but no abrupt cutoff either, and a stop at longtermcorporateconnections continued that thoughtful ending pattern, endings are hard and most blog writers either over engineer them or skip them entirely and this site has clearly figured out a sustainable middle approach.

  8. Spent a few minutes here and came away with a clearer picture of the topic, the writing keeps things simple without dumbing them down, and after a stop at reliablecorporatealliances the rest of the points lined up neatly which is something I appreciate when I am short on time and need answers fast.

  9. Came across this through a roundabout path and now it is on my regular rotation, and a stop at sustainablegrowthpartners sealed that decision, the open web still produces serendipitous discoveries when you let the citations and references guide you rather than relying purely on algorithmic feeds for new content recommendations always.

  10. Reading this prompted me to subscribe to my first newsletter in months, and a stop at everydayonlinepurchase confirmed the subscribe was the right call, content that earns a newsletter signup is content that has cleared a higher trust bar than a casual visit and this site has clearly earned that level of commitment from me.

  11. Solid value for anyone willing to read carefully, and a look at globalenterprisealliances extends that value across the rest of the site, this is the kind of place that rewards return visits rather than offering everything in a single splashy post and then leaving readers nothing to come back for later which is unfortunately common.

  12. Decided to read more before commenting and the more I read the more I wanted to say something, and a stop at cohesionbond pushed that impulse further, when content provokes the urge to participate rather than just consume it is doing something quite specific and worth recognising clearly when it happens during reading.

  14. Closed several other tabs to focus on this one as I read, and a stop at buildmomentumonline held my undivided attention the same way, content that earns full focus in an attention environment full of competing pulls is content doing something genuinely well and the team behind it deserves recognition for that achievement consistently.

  15. Now thinking about how to apply some of this to a project I have been planning, and a look at globalcommercialalliances added more material for the planning, content that connects to my actual creative work rather than just being interesting in the abstract is the kind that earns priority placement in my reading rotation consistently going forward.

  16. Came across this and immediately thought of a friend who would enjoy it, and a stop at toptenufabetgames also reminded me of someone, content that triggers the urge to share is content that has earned my recommendation and this site has earned multiple from me already across different conversations during the week.

  17. Honestly thank you to whoever wrote this because it scratched an itch I had not quite been able to articulate, and a stop at wildthistlemarket kept that satisfying feeling going, the kind of writing that meets unspoken needs is special and this site clearly has writers who understand their readers more than most do today.

  18. Picked a friend mentally as the audience for this and decided to send the link, and a look at mindfulwellnesshq confirmed the send was the right choice, choosing whom to share content with is a small act of curation that I take more seriously than the public sharing most platforms encourage these days online.

  19. Took longer than expected to finish because I kept stopping to think, and a stop at secureecommercebuying did the same to me, content that provokes thought rather than just delivering information is in a different category and the team here is clearly working at that higher level rather than just cranking out posts.

  20. Genuinely good work, the kind that holds up over multiple readings without losing its appeal, and a stop at everydayonlinepurchase kept that going, definitely a site I will be returning to and probably mentioning to others who work in or care about this particular area of interest today and in coming weeks.

  21. Closed the laptop after this and let the ideas settle for a few hours, and a stop at clicktoexploreinnovations similarly rewarded reflective time, content that benefits from sitting with rather than racing past is the kind I want more of and the kind that this site appears to consistently produce week after week here.

  22. Reading this on a phone at a coffee shop and finding it perfectly suited to that context, and a stop at reliabledealshoppingplace continued the comfortable mobile experience, content that works across reading conditions without compromising on substance is increasingly important and this site has clearly thought about the whole reader experience here.

  23. Took a screenshot of one section to come back to later, and a stop at discovernewmarketangles prompted another saved tab, the urge to capture and revisit specific pieces of content is something I rarely feel but when I do it tells me the work is worth more than the average passing read for sure.

  24. Reading this between two meetings turned out to be the highlight of the morning, and a stop at discoverstrategicoptions continued that highlight quality, content that outshines the structured parts of a working day is doing something well beyond ordinary and this site has produced multiple such highlights for me already this week alone.

  26. A memorable post for me on a topic I had thought I was tired of, and a look at reliablepurchasehub suggested the same site can refresh other tired topics, sites that can revive my interest in subjects I had written off as exhausted are doing rare work and this one is clearly doing that for me today.

  28. Now thinking about this site as a small example of what good independent writing looks like, and a stop at futurefocusedalliances continued that exemplary status, the few sites that serve as good examples are sites worth holding up in conversations about quality and this one has earned that exemplary placement through patient consistent effort over time.

  29. Reading this between meetings turned out to be the most useful thing I did all afternoon, and a stop at growwithinformedchoices kept that productivity feeling going, content can sometimes outperform actual work in terms of what gets accomplished mentally and this site managed that today which is genuinely a high bar to clear consistently.

  30. Now adding this site to a small mental group of recommendations I keep ready for specific kinds of inquiries, and a stop at professionalcollaborationhub extended the recommendation readiness, content that I can confidently point friends and colleagues toward in specific contexts is content with real social utility and this site has that utility clearly.

  31. Now thinking about whether the writer might publish a longer form work I would buy, and a look at clickforgrowthinsights suggested the same depth would translate, content that makes me want to pay for related work in other formats is content that has earned commercial trust as well as attention trust and this site has both clearly.

  32. Without comparing too aggressively to other sources this one stands out for the right reasons, and a look at dailyshoppingpoint continued that distinctive quality, content that distinguishes itself through substance rather than style tricks is content with lasting differentiation and this site has clearly chosen substance based differentiation as its core editorial strategy.

  33. Reading this prompted me to dig out an old reference book related to the topic, and a stop at discoverprofessionalinsights extended that connection to other sources, content that connects me back to my own existing knowledge rather than asking me to forget it is content with continuity and this site has that continuous quality.

  34. Grateful for posts like this one, they remind me there are still places online run by people who care about quality, and a look at digitalbuyingexperience reflected the same standards, you can tell the difference between content made for readers and content made just for search engines today and this is the former.

  35. Honest take is that I will probably forget most of what I read online today but this post is one I will remember, and a stop at urbanretailshoppingzone kept that same memorable quality going, certain writing leaves a residue in the mind in a way most content simply does not manage.

  36. Ended up here on a wandering afternoon and was glad I stayed for the read, and a stop at longtermpartnershipnetwork extended the wandering into a proper exploration of the site, the kind of place that rewards aimless clicking with something genuinely interesting rather than the shallow content that mostly populates the modern open web.

  37. Now recognising that this site has earned a place in the small group of resources I treat as authoritative, and a stop at modernonlineshoppinghub confirmed that placement, the difference between resources I trust and resources I just consume is real and this site has clearly moved into the trusted category through consistent quality over time.

  38. Reading carefully here has reminded me what reading carefully feels like, and a look at trustedcommercialbonds extended that reminder, the experience of careful reading versus skimming is different in ways I had partially forgotten and this site has clearly refreshed my memory of what attention feels like when content rewards it consistently.

  39. Thanks for a post that does not try to be funny when it is not the moment for it, and a stop at buildsmarterdecisions maintained the same appropriate seriousness, knowing when humour helps and when it just signals desperation for engagement is a sign of editorial maturity that many blogs have not developed yet.

  40. Thanks for the moderate length, neither so short it skips substance nor so long it bloats, and a stop at modegenerlshub hit the same balance, the right length is one of the hardest things to calibrate in blog writing and I appreciate when a team has clearly thought about it rather than defaulting.

  41. Useful enough to recommend to several people I know who would appreciate it, and a stop at topufabetgames added more material I will pass along too, the kind of writing that earns word of mouth is the kind that actually delivers on its promises which is what this site does without any drama or fanfare attached.

  42. Polished and informative without feeling overproduced, that is the sweet spot, and a look at collectiveanchor hit it again, you can tell when a site has been built with care versus thrown together for the sake of having something to put online and this is clearly the former approach taken by the team.

  43. Compared to the usual results for this kind of search this site stands well above the average, and a quick visit to securecommercialalliances kept the standard high, you can tell within seconds whether a site is going to waste your time or actually deliver and this one clearly delivers without any false starts.

  44. The examples really helped me grasp the points faster than abstract descriptions would have, and a stop at modernonlinepurchase added a few more practical illustrations that drove the message home, the kind of writing that knows its readers learn better through concrete situations rather than vague generalities is rare and worth recognising clearly.

  45. Even just sampling a few posts the consistency is what stands out, and a look at nextlevelshoppingexperience confirmed the broader pattern, sites where every piece I sample lives up to the standard set by the others are sites with serious quality control and this one has clearly invested in whatever editorial process produces that consistency reliably.

  46. Now noticing that the post did not mention the writer at all, focus stayed on the topic, and a look at securecommercialalliances continued that author absent quality, content that disappears the writer to focus on the substance is a particular kind of generosity and this site has clearly chosen the substance over the personality consistently.

  47. Skipped the comments section but might come back to read it, and a stop at customerfirstshoppinghub hinted at a quality reader community, sites where the comments are worth reading separately from the post are increasingly rare and signal a particular kind of audience that has grown around the editorial vision over time gradually.

  48. Over the course of reading several posts here a pattern of quality has emerged, and a stop at longtermstrategicalliances confirmed the pattern, the difference between sites that hit quality occasionally and sites that hit it consistently is huge and this site has clearly demonstrated the consistent kind through what I have read this morning.
