Abstract

History is the mother of other subjects. It grows as a very wide subject that teaches humankind by guiding leaders, instructors, and other citizens. To miss this subject at school has many sad effects. Some need notice. First, citizens grow up ignorant about their long past. Second, that error weakens rulers. It does not allow then to know useful facts. Third, without historical Knowledge and its knowing, other educations remain at the best, half-baked and, at the worst, empty-minded. Fourth, since “histories” make people wise, wisdom, is their best fruit. They cannot be ignored without bringing social ruin or death. Fifth, love-of-nation, often called nationalism, arises from history and historified schooling. Its absence makes unity hard to achieve in Nigeria; denies citizens local information; and punishes them with drift, waste, unpatriotism, and of course, greed in government.
