The Digest:
The Nigerian police in Lagos have invited a mother, Mary Udoka, after she posted a viral video criticising a nursery school English textbook for what she described as violent content with no moral value. The passage in question describes an old man punishing a dog by inserting a heated iron into its nose. Her lawyer said they would honour the invitation while questioning the police's involvement in the matter.
Key Points:
- The mother deleted her initial post after receiving threats and repeated calls.
- Formal petitions have been submitted to the Lagos State Government and NERDC.
- The Lagos State Government indicated the textbook was not approved for use in the state.
- The author defended the book, calling the criticism misleading and unfair.
- The passage contains grammatical inconsistencies and violent imagery.
The police have yet to explain the basis for inviting the mother.
