Many Nigerian Graduates Work As Drivers, Cooks In Dubai’ by oluwadanie1(m): 6:38am On Oct 16, 2014

The Allied Congress Party of Nigeria has called on the
Federal Government to make the economy very attractive
through job creation, saying such would discourage the
emigration of youths to Dubai, where he said many Nigerian
graduates had turned to drivers and cooks.

The National Chairman of ACPN, Chief Olu Okunriboye,
stated this in an interview with our correspondent after the
party’s National Executive Council meeting held in Abuja.
The ACPN was formed by the late Chief Abubakar Olusola
Saraki, the renowned late godfather of Kwara politics.
Okunriboye said, “What we need to do is proper planning;
good and qualitative education and good medical facilities.

Nigeria has a lot to do. Many Nigerians now go to Malaysia,
Singapore, China and Japan for greener pastures. Dubai
was not a strong country, but a small island before. They
don’t have oil but today they have too much money.
Everybody go to Dubai and when you get there, we don’t
pay in Naira.

“Now, many Nigerians have turned to drivers and cooks in
Dubai to the extent that the advertisement was placed in
the newspapers. I am not saying that driving or cooking is
not good. We have a grade and level. They are all graduates
and they were pushed to that level because of
unemployment. There is nothing wrong with that. If
Nigerians now could go to become drivers and cooks,
tomorrow, they will become conditions lesser.”

I agree thet pay might look high but at the end of the day savings might not be much considering the standard of living is very high in Dubai. After paying for rent, transportation and other living expenses, you are left with nothing.
