The fact of the matter is that possession of a university degree does not in tself guarantee employment and this applies all over the world. In the majority of cases, we in Nigeria tend to feel that having a university degree earns you the right to have a job however all it does is to give you is a competitive edge over those who don't have a degree. You should also remember that generally, the prospective employer will also consider other attributes such as being a team player, interpersonal skills, self motivation etc. before selecting the right candidate.
I don't agree therefore with the notion that the government should refund any fees paid to obtain a degree in the event of unemployment particularly since neither the government nor the academic institution entered into a contractual agreement with the student that employment would be guaranteed on successful completion of the course.

If you have been unemployed 10 years after your graduation, then the issue is you and not the government, check yourself out, check your association, drop the title, and get your hands dirty. This is one thing if nothing at all that going to a foreign country has thought most Nigerians. It is not your degree, but your determination.
GAMECHANGE, with u all the way

why not propose also that all secondary school students who can't proceed to higher institutions should be given their fees back. Stupid!
Why should you go to school and wanna depend on another person for your living. we are no more in the iindustrialisedage where you get work even before finishing, you are in a global world where information rules.Your skills,experience and informations is your strenght. you sure wont make sense if your life is tied to it. The poster is even better than you |

If the project is actually accepted, I forsee;
some working class people;
the retired old cargo;
people on self employment;
on queue to collect such money.
There is to real fact or database that can prove the real unemployment rate in Naija.

Ultimately, It is the job of the Government to care for its citizens. So I really do not see the absurdity of this idea. Maybe the repayment of tuition sounds a bit bogus however, If the government compensate unemployed graduates; that would be ideal.

I read somewhere that the youth unemployment stands at a mind-boggling 72%.
If that's the case, government need to do something.

The Govt did not force you to go to school so why should they pay up. Going to college is not by force.
There are people who go through college in Nigeria and can't solve basic algebra questions. Some can't even write/speak proper english enough for them to pass an interview or create a good resume.
80% of the people who claim they graduated and remained unemployed for 10yrs probably shouldn't have gone to the university in the first place.
Most of them go to school and study ridiculous majors and expect to get employment in a Nigerian economy that is not diverse.
Some choose to do nothing until they get a job at the "oil companiess"

our schools are not 21st century compliant!
if you keep waiting for govt and job givers you are a big time loser.
lets get it clear, the advanced societies have series of entreprising people that boosts their economy.
they even give much to the recieve.
GRADUATES must go and find jobs themselves, after all no one begged them to go to school.

lets tell ouselves the truth, what is the cost of education?
is there any alternative?
what do we stand to achieve in life?
anyone who can answer these questions will not be much bugged in life where ever you are!
we have to look elsewhere for solutions against just getting employed.
the so called illitrates will be taking advantage of any unemployed graduate.
look for what to do and grow there in.

What happens after you've been reimbursed and you get a job? Do you 'reimburse' government?
What happens if you become unemployed again through no fault of yours? Another reimbursement?
While it must be frustrating being unemployed, (not only for graduates, afterall having a university degree doesn't necessarily mean you should take precedence over those that do not), the best government can do is create a conducive atmosphere for investments so that jobs enough jobs are created. We know that's not totally feasible, but hey, we are talking about the ideal situation right?

On a lighter note?
What of those of us who went to school when fees were just about 180 naira?
It means someone like me is entitled to a reimbursement of N900.
Hardly recompense for unemployment, I would say.
