Security expert and lawyer Dr. Ody Ajike has criticized former U.S. President Donald Trump, accusing him of undervaluing other nations with his immigration policies.

In an interview with The Sun, Ajike acknowledged that every country has the right to regulate immigration but argued that Trump often makes decisions without considering the facts.

“Trump thrives on authoritarian populism, a growing global trend that leads to repressive policies and disregards collective decision-making,” he said. Ajike also expressed concerns about Trump’s approach, stating that the former president has a distorted view of reality.

“We still don’t know what he hopes to achieve with this immigration policy. No country exists in isolation,” he added.

He further criticized Trump for treating other nations as inferior while overlooking the complexities of American society, which, according to him, is built on inequalities and exploitative labor structures. “Other countries will focus on strengthening what matters to them,” Ajike concluded.

The Ministry of Education has clarified that Minister Tunji Alausa only proposed a shift to a 12-year basic education system and not an immediate policy change. The plan, which aims to phase out the Junior and Senior Secondary School system, is still under review.

According to the ministry, the proposal will not take effect right away. A final decision will only be made after thorough discussions and evaluations.

In a statement signed by Director of Press Folasade Boriowo, the ministry emphasized that the National Council on Education (NCE) must assess the proposal before any implementation.

“At the Extraordinary National Council on Education Meeting held on February 6, 2025, in Abuja, Minister of Education Dr. Maruf Olatunji Alausa presented the idea for discussion, not as an immediate policy shift,” the statement read.

The proposal suggests transitioning to 12 years of compulsory education while keeping the current 6-3-3 structure. However, this plan is still open to further consultation and deliberation.
