If only Herodotus,
the father of history were alive to hear that the Nigerian government sometime
last year deleted as it were, the subject – History from the school curriculum,
he would have cried like a baby for the shame and heartbreak this would have
brought him. But how can any well meaning society or leadership decide to do
that; it simply means you have equally refused to learn from history, and all
to your own peril. This is certainly ill advised, except of course there is
something they are trying to hide from you and I – how sorry. O Herodotus, will
thou still rest in peace at the dawning of this mire and odium oozing from our
time and milieu!?
