last i checked the NNPC was an Nigerian 'indigenous' coy, one run and sustained by tax payers money and yet has denied graduates of Nigeria owned polytechnics offer / ability to work for same. recently i heard of the recruitment exercise and decided to apply as an experienced hire only to observe the form was customized with no option for 'HND'. not that i felt bad about being an HND graduate even though i av my MSc. but the thought of neglect and denial that has met graduates of polytechnic. As someone who once worked 'industrial attachment' with NNPC, it isn't news that HND guys were highly discriminated.

i do not intend to write epistle, my point is "if the govt would not give job to graduates of its own schools then the schools should be scrapped, let there be no polytechnics again"! haba!

U sure hv a point...

@oxristo, thought i was alone in the line of thought, more than 20views and no comment, guess they were university graduates (joking).

I get ur point and I agree with it,there shldnt be such discrimination,graduates shld be placed equally

HND should be scrapped

@Don Tim. Lol, u'r nt alone. M nt a poly graduate bt I like bein objectiv in my viewz n hate bias/sentiment wif passion. D fact is dat, until we jettison dis mentality of layin emphasis on 'kpali' @d expence of productivity(wot u've got 2offer), we'll stil b far 4rm getin it ryt as a nation. Most disheartin is d fact dat it obtains evn in d govt circles 2.
