I totally agree with seun, the problem our people have is FEAR, and this does not exist.I have worked before and today i enjoy the comfort of running my own business. I seriously think enterpreneural skills should be thought in our school this will help alot of graduate not only to graduate as job seekers but also as enterpreneurs.

The topic is actually kind of silly, really.
Age, education and even class of education is always a sieve applied in the job market anywhere in the world, not just Nigeria.
It is what it is. Employers cannot hire everybody. A job flipping burgers at the local Big Mac is not the same as a trainee position in Cap Gemini Ernest & Young.
My take is, if you want the good life, depending on what that is for you, you have to 'put out' for it. Nothing is really ever going to come to you if you don't go out and get it. For the worried old guys, try finishing school a little earlier, rather than playing away the first 4-10 post-secondary school years writing JAMB and WAEC. Unfortunately some people do finish early, with good grades, and the employers know it. A bit harsh, but then life itself is harsh.
On the guy who posted something about Cotonou, sorry man, I just had to laugh. Do they even have jobs there? I was in Ghana a while back, and Nigerian companies were obviously very dominant in their economy. That kind of got me thinking. Are we by any chance crying scarcity in the midst of plenty?

Peace.
