Memoirs of a Nigerian minister of education professor Aliu Babatunde Fafunwa.
This volume is a partial attempt to complete my memoir entitled Up And On: A Nigerian Teachers Odyssey which was published in 1990 and which covered most of my earlier life till I retired as a university' teacher in 1979. One of the major reasons for writing this book is to narrate my experience as a Federal Minister of Education, highlighting my successes, partial successes, failures and partial failures. It is hoped that this will provide an insight into the running of Government agencies with lessons to be learnt from my modest achievements and my mistakes.Thoughts on leaving academia; University councils and vice-chancellorship saga; Mother tongue; Think-tank; unexpected call to duty; Inside the federal ministry of education; Establishment of six FME parastatals; ASUU, NASU, NUT and Others; The longe commission and the change of school year; The proposed nine-year compulsory education that failed and mathematics; Incentive rehabilitation of 450 old secondary schools; Mass illiteracy: Shame of a nation; Some unpleasant tasks; World bank loans; Some Nigerian contributions to UNESCO; TOKTEN: BRAINGAIN
