HOW A NATION IS COLLAPSED!
A lecturer in a South African University wrote an expressive message to his students at the doctorate, masters and bachelors level and placed it at the entrance of the college.
I believe that it resonates with us everywhere. More often than not we are not mindful of how the things we consider to be little could destroy our society.
He wrote, “Collapsing any Nation does not require use of Atomic bombs or the use of Long range missiles. But it requires lowering the quality of Education and allowing cheating in the exams by the students.
The patient dies in the hands of the doctor who passed his exams through cheating.
And the buildings collapse in the hands of an engineer who passed his exams through cheating.
And the money is lost in the hands of an accountant who passed his exams through cheating.
And humanity dies in the hands of a religious scholar who passed his exams through cheating.
And justice is lost in the hands of a judge who passed his exams through cheating.
And ignorance is rampant in the minds of children who are under the care of a teacher who passed exams through cheating.
The collapse of education is the collapse of the Nation”
Please permit me to add the following to the above;
Shoddy laws are made by the politician who passed exams through cheating.
Half or unverified information is given by the journalist who passed exams through cheating.
Unjustifiable/unpatriotic actions are supported by citizens who passed exams through cheating.
Substandard works are done by the public/civil servant who passed exams through cheating.
Half/subjective analysis is given by civil society organizations whose leaders passed exams through cheating.
Uninspiring leadership is given by the leader who passed exams through cheating.
Indeed, the collapse of Education is the collapse of the Nation.
