Thank you, Professor Oha, but I say: Shut down Nollywood, now!!! Well, at least, for six months, to start with.

The pupil who has provided this answer is definitely not "stupid;" he has simply offered a perspective which does not deserve an unfair reception. OK, the pupil could be said to have some language problems -- especially that of communicating with a restricted code that is not privileged in that classroom context. If the teacher could consider the pupil's cultural and learning circumstances, he or she would not be labeling the pupil as "stupid." I see a problem of teacher not comprehending the pupil in this case, which is worse than the pupil not having a fuller cognitive grasp of food poisoning.Thanks for sharing this textual evidence of teacher-pupil relationship in what must be the Nigerian context.-- Obododimma Oha.
