Mathew 6:24 (NIV): "No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other...."

let me be honest with you, postgraduate studies is a task that is best performed without distractions or extra stress that comes with having a job. I personally turned down several job offers so that I can concentrate on my postgraduate studies.

if there's a part time programme for your course, then go for it, but if there isn't I suggest you choose either you job or MSC programme. you can't conveniently run a full time programme and keep a 9am-5pm job. one will suffer. since you teach in Lagos, I suggest you try unilag instead of unn unless you have a job at nsukka waiting for you. cheers.
