The video clip, which went viral last week, captured a student named AbdulKabir AbdulKadir from Kasim Primary School in Agaie expressing anger over the state of the nation.
The student, in his motion during a debate, voiced opposition to compulsory voting in the country, expressing concern that the citizens’ votes have lost significance, citing corrupt leaders.
Reacting, the Niger State Ministry of Basic and Secondary Education in a statement signed by its spokesman, Jibrin Usman-Kodo frowned at the development.
According to the statement, the government is worried over the use of “vulgar and violent language” by the pupil. “The ministry observed with dismay the disturbing content of the video, where it was evident that the student had been coached to use violence and vulgar language in his presentation.
The Commissioner, has vowed to investigate the incident further and take appropriate disciplinary action against those responsible for coaching the student to use such language”, the statement added.
