Japa or Wapa

Japa is a Nigerian slang term that has gained widespread usage among Nigerian youths and in popular culture. The term is used to describe the act of escaping, fleeing, or disappearing quickly from a situation, often in a hasty and urgent manner. While a larger percentage of the populace seeks for refuge in other countries, they forget that there is need to make our society Wapa (a term originated in the Yoruba language which means better)

The naggings and cry to leave the country for a better place of solace is becoming more amplified as the day goes by, especially in Nigeria, which can be ascribed to the situations of insecurities, the economical down slide, farmer-herder violence, armed banditry and boko haram insurgency.

Despite the fact that the government has been taking commendable steps towards tackling this paralytic circumstances, a greater responsibility still lies in our hands as citizens to support whatever the government is offering us. 

In adapting to the current political climate in Nigeria ranging from the situation of an unstable economy to situation of insecurities as afore mentioned, we have taken measurable steps to making quality education affordable for all.

Part of the measures we have in place are conduction of trainings for our tutors for quality delivery of services- either in-person or on-line-, educating our parents on the need to always identify our tutors by requesting for their Identification card on occasion when the vest isn’t applied, running online classes also makes it possible for Internally displaced persons to still enjoy quality education services wherever they are especially with the application of 21st century tools available.

Adjusting to the current political climate isn’t a rack of the brain for us. As the government puts formidable plans in place, we also take our moves to making the society a fit for all.
