Western education is alien to us and when it came people began to look down on the indigenous education.

"People started looking down on them, calling them vernacular. At the time, if you were caught in schools speaking the local language, you would be punished."

Another problem has been policy implementation, which has been our bane. We need people who are competent and capable to get education policies implemented faithfully and professionally.
