The Niger State government has announced its intention to take disciplinary measures against teachers of a primary school pupil caught in a viral video using vulgar language during a school debate.
Naija News reports that the student who identified himself as AbdulKabir AbdulKadir of Kasim Primary School could be heard praying for lightning to strike leaders causing untold hardship for Nigerians.
The pupil who was opposing mandatory voting in Nigeria said the votes of the people no longer count due to the country’s corrupt judicial system, electoral officials, and use of force by security agencies to rig elections for ruling parties.
The pupil berated President Bola Tinubu for pushing the country into untold hardship despite his charisma.
Reacting to the viral video, the Niger State Commissioner of Basic and Secondary Education, Hadiza Mohammed, insisted that such action is not acceptable and also goes against the values of respect and decorum.
The commissioner stated this via a statement issued by the spokesman of the ministry, Jibrin Usman-Kodo.
The statement read: “The Niger State Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education has expressed deep concern over the recent incident involving the use of vulgar and violent language in a school debate by a pupil.
“The reaction of the ministry is rooted on a video circulating on social media, showing a primary school pupil using inappropriate language during a debate competition in one of the schools in Niger State.
