I opened the topic and just didn't know when to start after reading all stories. Lost mum in May, while mourning hubby got a sack letter this was after i left my teaching job due to distance from my new apartment to school. I wake up every morning and just wish I had stayed asleep because nothing seems to be working.

Tried getting another teaching job in the new area but nothing so far. It hasn't been easy at all. I smile each as if everything is alright, hoping tomorrow will be better but deep inside i am broken. Hubby rarely talks or smile. Just goes out to hussle comes back and pretend to be sleeping meanwhile he is silently crying.

I pray for a better tomorrow

It has not been easy at all. Sometimes I remember all the struggles through school and feel like ending it, the burden and pressure from siblings no be here making me to have little to invest in making myself more employable. I actually have passion for graphic designing and freelancing but my laptop got stolen just before Covid-19 lockdown, something that would have lessen my burden a whole lot.

[s]I have computer skill also including phone repair but I tell it's still difficult to cope with 5 kids this day,imagine finishing 300 naira garri with my family once,things are very difficult,no food is cheap now,infact if committing suicide we provide money for my wife and children I don't mind killing myself only that my death will put my wife and children in more poverty[/s]

The last people I will ever want to pity In the world are Nigerian Men, Most especially the "Not To Do Well Married Ones" You people disgust me a lot, Most of you guys loves PUSSY too much and are living a Reckless, Non-Planned, Indecent and Directionessless Life......

Been without a job since March. Life has been really tough. My wife is 7months pregnant. Thought about having an abortion for her at 5months but was scared of loosing her. She's not the fit type, so I have to spend more time with her at home.

You Nigerian Black Men loves Pvssy too much, "Small Breakthrough and Success" like this then Next Is Pvssy and Marriage and start littering everywhere with babies like Pigs. I am a high value man with abundance of resources but I'm never thinking of procreating In Shiiithole. This Is the worst place In the world.....

How's that a mumu question now? Why would he be having sex recklessly when he can barely feed himself and wife. He doesn't have money to buy condom but can stupidly have sex raw and now he's expecting another child. That is total foolishness, don't you think. How much does it cost to partake in family planning, eh?

A broke man has no right to have an erection ever!

I don't know why black people like you never think of tomorrow, rather you'd be begging, praying and hoping on God to come down from heaven to feed you.

People who have just two kids, do you think they don't like sex as well or they don't want more kids? In this current situation, someone earning less than N1m a month shouldn't have more than 2 kids if he wants to live a good life.

In my office, the least earner has got only two kids and the highest earner has just four and he earns more than N2m a month. Do you think he doesn't have sex every day? Seek knowledge first before any other thing. Know this and know peace.

You get time advising deluded zombies......

Well, after my masters degree in 2017, came back to Lagos to search for job, I could not find none. I took up a teaching job that paid me 20k per month while doing some home lessons around the neighborhoods.

Meanwhile I could not rent an apartment of my own, I was squatting with a brother of mine. I worked in this school for some years and then lockdown came, I became jobless and hungry.

Somehow, as a result of the benevolence of close family members, I was able to survive 2020. This year a family member got me a car which I use to do Uber now. And that is how have been surviving.


Life is really hard for unemployed in this country. And even a large numbers of those who are employed are under employed and can hardly take care of themselves.
May God save us in this country

Same way I thought.
But u have to be very creative,dogged and strong. I thank God after my NYSC in 2009/2010 I saved every dime I realised in Kebbi state and got a bank job and the story today has indeed changed.

Just start planning how u are going to work out ur ways...and pls,try not go back home to stay with ur parents after service except they have a job for u,if not,start your life from where u are. All the best.
You are lucky Sir,many graduate until they graduate there eyes open that's after service

Hmm, well for me, honestly, getting job is really not easy in Nigeria here. Currently, I am running my PG program and one day I took an inventory of my skills and found out, all through my UG days, I rarely built any skills.

I searched for skills that will be relevant in years to come and also matched my degree (Mathematics and a Lil of statistics), and to my surprise I stumbled on data science. Before now, I had a friend during service who was on my neck to develop a skill that's global and that could get me remote jobs irrespective of my location, but I never took it really serious. As at then, the guy has already worked with so many firms outside of Nigeria but that was not enough to motivate.

But as time began to roll by with the whole issue of jobs in Nigeria, mehn, I had to give myself brain o. So I looked out for online course on data science and luckily after monitoring Data Science Nigeria for three years, I have applied for their program which is starting on Monday. I chose not to get into any full time job at the moment (just home lesson) as my thesis have started and I've decided to give myself till the end of the year to learn and build portfolios before man go grad from MSc come dey carry CV upandan.


So for everyone out there who's looking for job, got families to take care of, mehn, I understand ooo, may the Lord make way for you and us all. And for young chap out there, especially UGs, please, don't just waste your time in school without learning any relevant skills especially for future of work skills. It's very important. Covid 19 has exposed how that most jobs might need go remote now and with the advent of Artificial Intelligence, skills are very much needed to meet up with this.

May God help us all.
But you studied mathematics you can easily grab a job
