10 Education Development Quotes From The Nigerian Education Summit



The Education Partnership Centre (TEP Centre) in partnership with Development Diaries, MacArthur Foundation and Every Nigerian Child Project, on Monday,  hosted the first Nigerian Education Summit (NES) at Protea Hotel, Ikoyi, Lagos.
The Nigerian Education Summit (NES) is an event that will be an annual convening of all those working to improve Nigeria’s education system, and for Nigerians to take stock and reflect on how far they have come in their goal to ensure that every Nigerian child has access to good quality education.
The summit had in attendance key stakeholders in the Nigerian education sector, including the Director, Centre for Learning Assessments International, Dr Sara Ruto who came all the way from Kenya to share her knowledge on conducting citizen-led assessment that will improve education quality through accountability.
Below are 10 quotes from the Nigerian Education Summit on ways to usher in the desired development in the Nigerian education sector.

1.       ‘The fastest way to grow social inequality is to refuse giving to others what education has given to you’ — Dr Oby Ezekwezili
2.       ‘The change we seek may require us to think differently about the purpose of education and how the burden of responsibility for educating Nigerian people at all levels, is shared and what form this takes.’ — Chairman, Nigerian Economic Summit Group, Mr Foluso Phillips
3.       Folusho Phillips.
4.       ‘Women and men in business can and ought to play a key role walking alongside and supporting those at the forefront of delivering the change we seek in Nigeria’s education sector.’ – Chairman, Nigerian Economic Summit Group, Mr Foluso Phillips.
5.       ‘We have to be accountable to each child in order to help develop the quality of education.’ - Director, Centre for Learning Assessments International, Dr Sara Ruto.
6.       ‘Education, at the end of the day is a Public-Private responsibility.’ — Managing Director of The Education Partnership Centre (TEP Centre), Dr Modupe Adefeso-Olateju
7.       ‘The best way to look at accountability in the education sector is not to generalise but to take individual ownership.’ — Senior Economic Advisor, Open Society Institute, Dr Oby Ezekwezili.
8.        ‘Citizens must hold politicians accountable on issues of education.’ - Director, Centre for Learning Assessments International, Dr Sara Ruto.
9.       ‘There is power in collectively. We need movements to improve the quality of education in Nigeria and indeed Africa.’ -  Director, Centre for Learning Assessments International, Dr Sara Ruto.

  2. Getting ex boyfriend back after a breakup,I’m extremely happy that will are living together again. Am Maria 21yr from England, my boyfriend of a 4yr just broke up with me and am 30 weeks pregnant.I have cried my self to sleep most of the nights and don’t seem to concentrate during lectures sometimes I stay awake almost all night thinking about him and start to cry all over again.Because of this I end up not having energy for my next day’s classes ,my attendance has dropped and am always in uni and on time.Generally he is a very nice guy ,he ended it because he said we were arguing a lot and not getting along.He is right we’ve been arguing during the pregnancy a lot .After the break up I kept ringing him and telling him I will change.I am in love with this guy and he is the best guy I have ever been with.I’m still hurt and in disbelief when he said he didn’t have any romantic feelings towards me anymore that hurt me faster than a lethal syringe.He texts me now and then mainly to check up on how am doing with the pregnancy,he is supportive with it but it’s not fair on me, him texting me as I just want to grieve the pain and not have any stress due to the pregnancy.i was really upset and i needed help, so i searched for help online and I came across a website that suggested that Dr Unity can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So, I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he told me what to do and i did it then he did a spell for me. 28 hours later, my bf came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my bf are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr Unity. If you have any problem contact Dr.Unity now and i guarantee you that he will help you.Email him at: Unityspelltemple@gmail.com ,you can also call him or add him on whats-app: +2348071622464.
