Lagos State's Ex-Deputy Governor's intellectual 'fraud' of

The last Intellectual ‘Fraud’ Princess Sosan committed before leaving office (Part 1)

These book published in 2006 first recommends that teaching of moral values & entrepreneurship should be compulsory from primary 1 to tertiary levels. This recommendation is now the fulcrum of the new education curriculum   

The New Education Curriculum as the Power to Speak Out Against Cult of Bureaucrats Now

 Hurray!!! At last, I am vindicated!

The oracle has spoken. The new Revised Universal Basic Education Curriculum and the new Senior Secondary School Curriculum have spoken. The language is clear, germane and assertive: that Moral Education is now compulsory at par in rating with Mathematics and English. Yet this very idea pushed into implementation through a proposal of FREE capacity building workshop on paths and procedures to implementing character building in schools was, in my thinking, irrationally axed by the Lagos State bureaucracy and later stolen for rules of engagement speech by the then Deputy Governor, Princess Sarah Adebisi Sosan.

It however goes beyond this. Like besotted heartthrob, the institutions of Lagos State Government have continued to infringe on every material value I hold so scared for existential and human endeavors. For the existential is my right to dignity, freedom, security of life and access to shelter, which are constitutional mandates of State to make abundant for me as like for every citizen. But through a fault of rots in the State’s Office of the Public Defender (OPD), a syndicate of examination fraudster hold their heads high up to feel so good with impunity that pushed me to homelessness.

Incidentally however, this was only a direct supplementary consequence of intellectual fraud the lieutenant highest office of the State, Office of the Deputy Governor, also holding the portfolio of Commissioner for Education, had committed against me. Princess Sosan in these capacities, actually executed an action that flew out of my idea proposed to her, the office of the Deputy Governor and Ministry of Education, all of Lagos State Government official status.

I have ignored this infringement on my property, otherwise known to be criminal theft of intellectual idea, since its execution in 2010 because of my general indisposition that arose as a direct loss consequence of investment of my time and money on that project the Lagos bureaucrats attempted to thwart, only for the Deputy Governor to turn back and use the idea later without acknowledging me as the source.

However, I am forced to rise to this challenge of seeking my due when the content of the new Senior Secondary Curriculum and especially the Revised Universal Basic Education Curriculum simply appear to be a direct lifting of my idea from a research work conducted on self effort between 2003 and 2007. The idea is as published in my book: Education and Entrepreneurship is Ideal Arsenal in a Political Revolution; the Nigerian Anti-corruption Perspective as a case study, which the principal agents of both the State and Federal Government concerned directly accessed, particularly the case of the Deputy Governor.

The fact of the case:

Although the whole transactions leading to the idea stealing by the Lagos State ended at the front end; by which I mean the whole discussion on the capacity building project as I proposed it ended with the imperative preliminary actions of the civil servants. The Deputy Governor as the back end officer still takes responsibility as the ultimate decision maker.

In theme, the said published book compresses the findings of my, research work on how the Nigerian State gets to this sorry state of moral decadence, that keep pushing it to endless pit of perdition, into a conclusion that a revolutionary surgery is needed on the State.

With assessment of the new Republic under Chief Olusegun Obasanjo as upholding the rule of might to kill the power of the mind with political brigandage and banditry, the book concludes on political revolution as the required class of revolution. But to dissociate the path of the revolution being canvassed form the conventional violence associated with it, the book advocates moral rebirth in every facet of our lives to justify that both the ruler and the ruled are guilty of establishing the perversity.

Accordingly, as the book recommends, only a systemic framework of institutional building is required to reshape. The book then looks into all sectors connected with objective process of socialisation of norms to conclude that the immorality has actually established itself through the erosion of traditional values of education. And this in turn comes to be through progressive leadership assaults on education from the military rulers’ phobia for knowledge.

Conclusively, the book recommends, as a product of the research work, that the two parts of the primary goals of education being “character building and learning” need to be reinvented creatively into two inseparable twins.

The ad bill to schools for participation

And on the premise that “in principle, the art of business is the trick of manipulating money for reproductive purposes (while) politics understands money as the trick of gathering money in the name of revenue and spending in the name of project, the book says entrepreneurship as a concept of productivity is a pre-requisite institutional establishment to complement the re-invention of the social and family values in moral base. It conclusively argues from here that wealth generation out of politics that has come to dominate our social clime rides on the concept of consumerism, which it says to be the ideal gasoline for the “human vice of greediness and aggrandizement that drives accumulation of wealth”.

So in summary, the book in question – Education and Entrepreneurship as Ideal Arsenal in a Political Revolution, explaining the theory of the weaponry in chapter three says for Nigeria to get it right, there must be youth re-orientation towards positive values of education and entrepreneurship. And in time frame, the target youth must be a new generation in whom a socialisation process of positive norms must be embedded through the school curriculum as compulsory subject. And likewise in simultaneous complementary studies, the orientation must tilt the thinking of the youth to productivity, as the book concludes.

And what do the Revised UBE curriculum and the Senior Secondary School curriculum have in theme? And how did the Deputy Governor steal? Let’s take a break.
