 *Ahmed Joda, an elder statesman and former Permanent Secretary in the Federal Ministry of Education, writes from Yola, Adamawa State* 8th SEPTEMBER, 2020    AHMED JODA I read on one of the social media platforms an open letter to Malam Adamu Adamu, the Honorable Minister of Education by our Ambassador in Mexico, to which I think I should make a contribution that may interest the minister in addressing the issues at stake. In February 1971, almost 50 years ago, I became the Permanent Secretary Federal Ministry of Education. When I entered the office, I found two files on the table.

LEADERS AND HEIRS ACADEMY SCHOOL FOR FUTURE LEADERS Children in the UK finish secondary at 16/17. Children in the US and Canada finish secondary school at 17/18... a few of them 19. The British children would still go ahead and graduate by 21/22. The Americans and Canadians will still go ahead and graduate at 22/23/24. Or a few years more for courses of more than 5 years.
