Media personality and former big brother Naija housemate, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu has revealed what he would do when he becomes the president of Nigeria.
The father-of-two took to his Twitter page to speak on his next line of action as the President of Nigeria, if that will ever happen some day. He tweeted:
“Gotta make it illegal for parents to help their children with homework when I become President. Let me rest. Right after I ban ponmo.”
Ebuka Obi-Uchendu‘s tweet got several replies from his followers who agreed with him on the part of parents helping their children with home work.

@nkeobele wrote: How do you measure what the child has learnt? Homework may not be the best way to measure it but the standard way in our educational system. Education is a student -teacher – parent affair. How would you contribute to your child’s learning if you don’t know what he’s taught?
