After 52 years of independence, the question of nation-building still continues unabeted.

The education sector as an agent of change has seemed to be incapable of promoting nation-building. This article argues that such an enduring problem is attributable to at least three major factors, namely a narrow syllabus band, a flawed teaching and learning method, as well as an over-emphasis on examination.

description This article aims to examine the importance of history and history subject as a tool for strengthening the nation-building process and attaining the objectives of the national education policy. After 52 years of independence, the question of nation-building still continues unabeted.

At the same time, there are also disputes over the history syllabus in schools. All these problems occurred as a result of the country’s failure in cultivating nationalism and patriotism among the people. The question is: why has this continued to happen?
