Some years ago, your father calls you and your siblings for a family meeting and says,” I want to produce a medical doctor, a lawyer, an engineer and a priest”. In your mind, he’s just joking.

When it’s time for UTME you realize he’s serious, as he fills in one of those courses for you. You’re just not interested. What kind of rough play is this?

You write UTME and post-UTME and you get admitted into the university at first attempt. “Maybe this is a sign that this course is actually for me”, you think

Meanwhile, there’s this other course you’ve always wanted to apply for, but you’ve been told it doesn’t pay. You even want to work on your musical talents and sharpen some other skills you have, but you’ve been severally discouraged

You finally give up and decide to go for the course your father chose for you

First year first semester examination was like this

Then you realize this course was truly not meant for you.
You muster all the courage to go home and tell your people you’re no longer doing again.

You’ve accumulated a lot of carry overs, but your final year class must be different. You have to pass by whatever means possible. You finally achieve your goal.

How you leave the campus after passing your degree exams. Thank God it is all over

It’s time to step out into the REAL WORLD.

It is then you realize that in the real world, countless number of people studied the same course as you did. Now, you have to compete for few available jobs

Every job interview you attend is just like this

You finally decide to go work for free at a nearby company, in order to boost your CV, until a job comes.

However, reality dawns on you. All the handouts you crammed in school just to pass exams have fled from your brain. The other courses you sorted is also not helping matters. You seem not to know what to do, despite bragging that you’re a graduate.

Two weeks later, you finally get a job. You’re performing better at this new job, but you’re just not happy. You work your head off, but you’re paid peanuts. You start remembering your service year and realize you were much better off then

You have finally made your decision: it’s time to pursue your dreams instead of satisfying other people’s ambition.

You start a new season of hardwork, but this time around, you’re happy knowing you’re doing what you really wanted to do in life.


Sooner or later, you’re going to be like this

the plain truth is because of the
1. Low education standards
2. Insufficient employment slots.

take engineering for electrical engineering & mechanical engineering as example.
Here in Nigerian federal universities,many of these courses in the above stated disciplines need to be re-updated.
Imagine using theories,machines and equipment of over 50 years ago to learn at this present point in time.You will so so be irrelevant,

even the lecturers themselves are not standard enough. in many ivy-league schools e.g MIT,Harvard,Oxford.
Many of their lecturers are professionals in the discipline they lecture. for example,their engineering lecturers are indeed professional and certified engineers. they practice the course as they lecture,peradventure there are upgrades or advancements,they quickly include that in the course content.

that is why many graduates take several skill based and practical hands on course after graduation e.g website development,photography,make-up etc.

only God will save us in this country.

maybe a change of interest or discovery of passion may make somebody not practice the course they did in school.but this is like 1.8%.
