Jokes apart, this was a mode of teaching when I was young—this was how people became converts to Islam or Christianity. This was how we learned elementary magic. This was how we learned and created stories.
Street education was part of how many of us grew up before a generation came that was driven to schools in cars.
The first thing I will teach CAO in the motor park is how to fight! And he will later beg me for "conk incantation" to turn into thin air.

Simple response: It's obvious you have not met Falola. The entire park will be in an uproar. I am talking of what i have seen sir.
Seriously now, i like the idea of motor park lectures. And the emergence of Gramsci's organic intellectual able to manoeuvre between the parks and the classrooms. Indeed, the motor parks are classrooms!

Adeshina,
Seriously, does Falola have the capacity to interact at the motor parks? I doubt it.
If he does, that would be fantastic! Motor park lectures are overdue in Nigeria.
CAO.
