Kslib: Handi work is better,but some of us prefer going to school rather,cos we are scared of taking the risk, forgetting that most successful people are risk takers... In ur theory that's if I'm nt wrong, d level of unemployment is caused bcuz youths in naija r nt ready to take d 1st steps bcuz of uncertainty? |

Very good thread. I'll say HANDY WORK is skill for life and job for life whereas degree is also good. I've seen lots of people in UK dropping City job for handy work, it's the best form of job, everything goes round you, make 100% of profit unlike degree or working for someone. I must say I regret not learning BRICK LAYING, MECHANICS & many more handy trade before leaving Nigeria rather than wasting many yrs on bloody JAMB before gaining admission to UNILAG. Our society is full of mess and no regards for trades but they play important ROLE in the society and having the MOST SENSELESS LEADERS ON THE PLANET do not help as they are clueless in all area. Pls Observe your society and learn a trade that's need all the time. Some of the WHITE BOSSES DO NOT ATTEND UNIVERSITY but they control over 500-1000 worker in my office they are well paid, even a bus driver is respected in the society. 1 Like |

kevoh: I hate this kind of dumb comparison. None is better than the other. It's like a laptop, take away the keyboard and you definitely can not work alone with just the monitor or take away the monitor same thing happens you can't work alone with the keyboard. It is more of a symbiotic relationship. The point is... D high level of unemployed graduates( d future docs, engineers, accountants... Etc) out there.... That's d issue... |

Don't end up as just statistics with JAMB. Do you (or anyone you know) wants to study BSc. Accounting or BSc. Business Administration? Will you ( or he/she) want to become a Chartered Accountant while studying for your (his/her) degree? Are you (he/she) desirous of acquiring practical Business Management experience? If your answer is YES to all these questions, visit www.ggacollege.org. The only requirement is 5 O' Level credits. Share this information freely. |

Many people tend to mistake ones passage through institutions of higher learning as being "educated", whereas it is not, one can pass through formal institutions of higher learning and yet not informed . An uninformed person is an illiterate ; informed person is educated . One way to become informed is through self-education . Note : formal education can only make you a living ; self-education will make you fortune . However , I'm a proponent of sound basic ( primary to secondary level )formal schooling/education. 1 Like |
