Include Internet as subject in schools, don charges FG

An educationist and former Resident Electoral Commissioner of INEC in Anambra state, Professor Chukwuemeka Onukaogu, has called for the inclusion of internet as a separate subject in schools.

Onukaogu, who spoke during a book presentation, said teaching internet as a separate subject in schools will equip students for the circular society.

 “We need to expose our children on what to encounter in the society, the use of the social media and others.

“We have to warn them of the uncouth languages people use in the social media and also help them to avoid such languages.

“Internet should be taught as a subject in schools. Internet literacy should be made a vital part of our education,” Onukaugu said in his review.

Anambra state governor, Chief Willie Obiano, represented by the Head of Service Harry Uduh, said the book was worthy of being owned by every adult who makes use of the internet in Africa, promising that the government of the state would distribute copies to schools and libraries for use by people of the state
