It appears that the educational facilities in Nigeria have become completely abandoned by the government.
In most cases, students are left to sleep in decrepit hostels and study in classrooms infested with reptiles, rodents, cockroaches, spiders and harsh elements.
Most of the facilities have no toilets or bathrooms and where they have, they are completely run down and littered with heaps of dry or decaying feases.
Woeful images of a typical Nigerian government school in the 21st century paints a grim reminder of Nigeria’s current education realities and level of attention given to them.
A community primary school in Etche local government area of Rivers state is said to be one of the few that still has a roofing walls albeit, crumbling.
The images of the classrooms where pupils daily undertake their studies show blocks piled into shapes of chairs and tables.
The roofs are also giving way and look like they have fallen off at different times. A sign that the government budgets have not been utilised for decades.
While the old students of this particular school may not have bothered to give it the needed attention, not that they are compelled to as budgets are annually allocated to it, the old boys of another school, built a 450-bed hostel for their alma mater.
The old students of CIC Enugu decided to take a little bit of their wealth home to build the “magnificent edifice” with all the hostel rooms en-suite.
They lament the poor handling of their old hostels which lacked locks, windows, and bathrooms but are glad they made an effort to donate the more befitting infrastructure.
