A prominent pastor in Port Harcourt, Pastor Akeem Idoniboye, has ignited a call for a major overhaul of Nigeria’s education curriculum, slamming the continued use of materials dating back to the 1980s.
Delivering a sermon titled “Power of Ability” at the Glorious Destiny Family Church, Idoniboye decried the lack of progress, stating, “The problem we are having is that what was taught in our schools in the 1980s are the things still being taught today. Nothing has changed. Our curriculum needs to be reworked.”
The cleric said that one’s ability determines what you are entitled to and entrusted with, pointing out that there are dimensions you will never enter if you don’t do things well because life respects competence.
Idoniboye said: “Ability determines what you are given and what you are entrusted with. Every reward is often based on your capacity. There is a place for capacity.
“Ability is to build competence. People respect competence. There are dimensions you will never enter if you don’t do things well. Life respects competence.”
He stated that the level of ability could be raised through learning, positive exposure, association and faith.
