In the unemployed population, some are actually very brilliant, they went through the university and or polytechnic but may because of some issues, they couldn't get their certificate and couldn't go for NYSC.

These ones are there in the economy struggling to survive. They don't just seat back lazying around. They try to start something but it's impossible for many of them who doesn't have any means of financing there business ideas.

What can be done to assist these ones?
I feel these corporate organisations should start looking out for potentials and not just certificates. Truth been told, some certificates hold no water. Some are bought either with cash or kind. And when they get on the job... They can't just perform.

It has got to be WHAT CAN YOU Do? and not What Certificate do you have?

I don't know if this post of mine mean anything to someone. I just woke up, writing proposals to companies about my business. I've been doing this for like 6years but yet to get something concrete because I can seem to make enough money to really brand this business of mine. If I had a job, it could have helped me save up some money to do this.

If you look me up here on Nairaland, you will see all that I've tried my hands on.

If you are in the same shoes as me, please join the discussion.
