No child should be put under pressure, no child should be humiliated and made to suffer for wanting a better life. I\u2019ve often wondered why flogging students who can\u2019t pay or chasing them back home or in some cases publishing their names or calling them out on assembly ground is necessary, what point are you trying to prove? Embarrass their parents? Damage their self esteem, make them a laughing stock amongst their peers??? Of what use is this act exactly? Oh you flog or send them home so their parents can feel bad and embarrassed till they find the money right?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is the child\u2019s offense? Do they have a source of livelihood? Why do they have to suffer? Did they ask to be born?? It has been happening from time in memorial and I think it\u2019s time we spoke against it. Why dehumanize them? Why embarrass them? Why flog them when they clearly can\u2019t work to afford the school fees? Why??! I understand schools need money, I understand that some of these schools are not government owned and need funding to stay open but this is a shame, we must do something about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What happened to dialogue with the parents? What happened to working out a payment plan???? This young princess is the leader of tomorrow and her bravery and enthusiasm broke me, that should encourage them to nurture her and not break her down. Even if we find her confidence funny, her self esteem is being bruised by the school authorities who believe they have to flog her cos her parents can\u2019t pay them to teach her. Sad ? ???<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pls let\u2019s join hands in saving the situation, pls anyone who can connect with her family or any school interested in giving her a scholarship, let\u2019s stop this barbaric act it\u2019s disgusting&#8221;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Toke Makinwa questions the rationale behind beating students for late school fees After the viral video of a young girl that was sent home for not paying her school fees, Toke Makinwa responded like this: &#8220;I am so sick to my stomach watching this.
