In our society today bullying has been one of the social vices that has not been properly tackled and it has eaten so deep that its now incurable. Bullying comes in different forms from-business, religious, societal educational etc. but today i will be discussing on the bullies in the education sector.
Educational bullies are those lecturers and school management that tends to victimise students in different higher learning institutions across the nation, these bullies are inevitable as they are the ones at he helm of affairs in there various departments, facullties and the school at large.
In Nigeria today there is no student that has not been bullied in one way or the other weather tentionally or unintentionally,we all suffer from this delima. Rights of students are been infringed upon as lecturers impose their rules on students as it goes contrary to the rules and regulation of the school yet, they are not called to order because of their personal affiliation. Student will be forced to buy textbooks even if its against the school rules to sell personal books which are not in the school curriculum.
Lecturers ask for money so that student will be given good grades,if not no matter how good a student is if not failing the student, they will b given the poorest of grades,if students decides to protest they are tagged rebels.
Female students are been assaulted sexaully yet nothing is been done, one incident that happened in my second year, we were to write an examamination that monday morning but the lecturer is nowhere to be found several calls were put to him but to no avail not until one of my coursemates a girls just tried calling him it went through after she had finished introducing herself he insulted her and made us to come to school on a friday 4pm to write that examination thats after a forth night. After the examination he invited her to his office she thought it was a normal lecturer to student advice but it turns out to be a sex plea from the lectureer and it turns to be a most but she refused all attempt and ran out of his office, before she left he promised to punish her.
We the students knows that she is one of the brightest but behold the result she failed that particular course.
She reported the matter but nobody listened to her all she got was that she is just been dramatic that she should just rewrite that examination, every effort from her had a negative reply that she is trying to indict the lecturer that was how she failed that particular course because of a lecturer and a school system that practices bullism.
These bullies in this sector of our society has brought about the downfall of our educational system as student don't have the right to say, to good grades as they are been compelled to the will of their lecturers. If this worm that is eating our system is not dewormed then our education will continue to go down the drain.
nothing will be done its like pouring water on a duck.
