As a career adviser to the youth, I usually tell them to select courses that offers the opportunity of seeking for employment outside the shores of Nigeria. Make no mistake about this, the Nigerian labor market is saturated and overflowing. Graduate unemployment has been projected to reach record high in the next five years except drastic economic reform is taken by the government. I will rather encourage my niece or sister to read nursing than going to waste his/ her time reading any course. I will prefer to read social work or community development and have opportunity to work with international development agencies and abroad as conflict has been projected to increase in the years to come. Those in the development sector and humanitarian assistance will have that opportunity. if you check recently, most NGOs have been advertising and recruiting people because of the violence. Finally, study course that you have chances of making first class or 2.1, even if the course looks stupid. With that, you can sit for graduate aptitude tests of some multinationals, seek for overseas scholarship as it has been shown that scholarship exists for almost all categories of courses as long as you have high GP. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

Onnasucs1: I used to get emotional just like him because truth is bitter. A passion that cannot put food on your table in this present Nigeria is useless. Just imagine Lawyers now earning 30k even corps members earn more than that. Doctors are now getting underpaid. I seriously feel like punching somebody! 5 Likes |

how about someone studying agricultural Economics and Agro business? |
Re: Do Not Study A Course Just Because You Like It. by Karleb(m): 10:09am On Nov 10, 2020 |
officialfestus: To be candid, this is a good course. Make sure you are not shy to go into agriculture when you graduate because the job you want might not come (early). |

I won't forget my lecturer that year telling us how ACCOUNTANCY EDUCATION is a double honor. In his words. "You can be a teacher or an accountant. The choice is yours". Yon need to see how we used to carry our shoulders as double honors. We even thought we had more opportunities than those that studied Accountancy major. Now see my life. Sometimes if I mention my course to some employers they will be like, is that accountancy or what? The painful aspect is that same set of lecturers are still there giving students orientation on how they will do exploits when they graduate in that field(like motivational speakers). Skill is the key in today's Nigeria. 6 Likes |

BiggyB242:I can agree with you only to the extent of the young lawyers coming up. When a lawyer is already made, a single case can fetch him the life savings of a civil servant. I know of several lawyers like that, a particular one told a story where he carelessly got involved in a case, that careless case eventually fetched him 30million. The legal profession requires Patience a d perseverance. The young lawyers aren't chasing for instant wealth but NAME, with the name, your signature alone go dey send alerts to your account.
