Abstract
Apparently, our schools and universities produce a lot of educated youths. However, there seems to be a mismatch of the content of the education and the stage at which we are in terms of economic modernisation, and the very content of our economy. Perhaps our schools’ curricula should be re-examined and redone to calibrate them accordingly and with prospects which are natural in the part of the globe in which we are situated, and let them arise from our time-tested indigenous approaches to the main issues of the moment.
Key words: Youth, education, folk orientations, development, natural resources according to locales.
