The shocker is when companies put an age limit of 25 or 26 years for entry level despite being a fresh graduate

When you go nysc come back you will be looking at affidavit with one kain eye

It's like when jamb mess you up year after year your chances get smaller by each year

THAT'S VERY GOOD BUT I WILL ADVISE THOSE PREPARING TO WRITE NECO 2018 TO USE WWW.EXPOKEY.NET .

I PAID THERE FOR MY YOUNGER BROTHER WAEC RUNS THIS YEAR AND THEY ARE REALLY DELIVERING ACCURATE ANSWER TO HIM AT THE RIGHT TIME.

I, MYSELF USE WWW.EXPOKEY.NET FOR MY JAMB LAST YEAR AND I SCORED 271, I AM ALREADY A STUDENT OF FUTO.

SO I ADVISED BOTH DEALERS AND CANDIDATES TO PAY AT WWW.EXPOKEY.NET FOR THEIR RUNS IN ORDER TO GET ACCURATE ANSWER IN THEIR NECO EXAM
this is our problem in the country.

Exactly, at what age did he graduate from secondary school and wrote jamb 6 times and still went to varsity and spend how many years there. That age is not true or he lied about writing jamb six times.

i wrote Jamb 5 times and graduated at age 25.

Did my first utme in ss2 at age 16, scored 198. My results were withheld in subsequent attempts until my last Utme in 2006 at age 20, scored 247, admitted to the university nov same year.

mind you, i spent 5 years in the university with B.tech Hon.

[quote author=Nnamdiojukwu post=67008230]And the guy is 26yrs??
Hmmmmm.
Take away six yrs of jamb,six years of primary school,four years in the university, six years in secondary school.

-6-6-6-4=-22
when did he started primary school?
You are correct! I'm currently 28 years old. I graduated in 2017 when I was 27. It was a typographical error. I didn't proof read the news before it was published so it was my fault not the publisher. The error occurred when 18/02/1992 was written instead of 18/02/1990 which is my date of birth. Again, the fault was entirely mine not the publisher and I'm very sorry for that. All other details are correct. I took UTME in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011, 2012 and 2013. For five years, I was not offered admission to study any course. It was my sixth year that I was offered Applied Chemistry. I have my declaration of age, primary school certificate, WAEC result and international passport having 18/02/1990 as my date of birth so I will never lie about my age. Thank you all for your comments. I am your friend, Simon Godwin Idoko.

he wrote jamb six times and spent four years in school. that's approximately ten years. he's 26. 26-10 = 16. that means he left secondary school at 16 which is very possible. many children graduate from secondary school at 16.

Unfortunately, he listened to people on the course to study and not what he really desires. I'm happy he finished with a first class, but the age discrimination in the labour market is a problem to his lofty ambitions.

Since he desires to be a lecturer, he should register for the GRE, score not less than 330 and apply to top schools abroad. Preferably top 15 in his field.

And yes, it's possible for him to have written UTME 6 times. Probably finished secondary school at 15.

AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF SIMON GODWIN IDOKO
I was born on the 18th of February, 1990 in Udaburu, Owukpa, Ogbadibo Local Government Area, Benue State to the family of Chief Simon Omonu Idoko. I started my primary education at Avotec Nursery and Primary School, Eporo, Ondo State in 1995. In 1998, I transferred to L.G.E.A. Primary School, Udaburu, Owukpa where I obtained my First School Leaving Certificate in July, 2001. I started my secondary education at Government Secondary School, Ugbugbu, Owukpa in September, 2001 but spent only JSS 1 there. I transferred to Government Day Secondary School, Eupi, Otukpo in September, 2002 where I spent only JSS 2 and JSS 3. In September 2004, I continued my senior secondary school education at Wesley High School, Otukpo where I graduated in 2007. After five years of struggling to gain a university admission to study Medicine and Surgery which was not successful, I got admission to study Applied Chemistry at Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto in December, 2013 after my sixth time of taking JAMB UTME. I started my university education in January, 2014 and graduated in December, 2017 with a first class degree in Applied Chemistry.
