I love this thread.

The dullards those days are really doing good 2day.

When i was with d bank, i was an account officer to one who can't even fill the withdrawal booklet then.

Eziokwu, seriousness have caused more harm o.

Those dullards are really established.(Any way na way).

Those that became professionals, u'll be wondering how they came to attain such level.

Never underestimate any one. Help can come from any side.

The reason why the so called dullards seem to be doing better is simple. They discovered they weren't academiclly sound and followed their passion on time. They made out time to develop their skills, whether legit ot not. They polished their psychomotor skills nd are sportsmen today, they developed their singing skills and are musicians today ndwhile we were burning 5 yrs in uni, some learnt business within that period and were settled.

Whereas, the bookworms always believe that the system will help them as soon as they graduate. They believe so much in their 1st class and 2.1 and don't see the need lerning aa skill. I once read on niraland that those turning to entrepreneurship are doing so out of joblessness. Upon graduation they are surprised to see that there are few jobs out there and they manage the one they see.

Academic excellence pays but one must also think outside the box. Mark zuckerber, bill gates ... Are intelligent. Thry only made out time to develop the skills thry have

Go to school, study hard but be street wise and open to learning new things, don't be stuck to your degrees

Unfortunately, Nigeria Education is not a true test of how smart or dull you are. If you had asked about crammers I would have used Nigeria Education to judge. The reason why some best student in Nigeria class don't do well after school is that the school system has killed their 1. Creativity Skills 2. Decision Making Skills 3. Analytical skills. All subjects/courses thought should be structured in this way but so unfortunately we don't have it yet. that's why most firm goes abroad finding graduates that has those 3 skills, even as an entrepreneur you need those skills to survive. that's why Bill Gates could come up with Microsoft (creativity skill), analyse the feasibility and viability(Analytical skill), then drop out since he is convinced on his idea(Decision making Skill), same applies to Mark, Steve and all great men. Even firms recruit base on that because they need to keep improving that's why most investment banks will keep watching out for MBA certificate from abroad.

We need to do something different, our style of education was useful in the INDUSTRIAL AGE (1960-1995), but we're now in INFORMATION AGE. that's why there's that wide range of unemployment in the country. I have a dream of becoming the Minister of Education.... SO HELP ME GOD.

Hian! No let me shed tears this night ooo. The dullest student in my class then was so dull that is was a crime to sit down beside him in class. The teachers would regard you as "birds of the same feather flocking together".

Our educational system is fvcked mehn! Not everyone is good in cramming all those long definitions and finding x and y wey we no loss.

Bottom line, his father was a welder so he naturally worked in the workshop. He managed to gain admission in the then petroluen training institute, effurun where he got an ond in under-water welding. Now he is a top under-water welder for an oil and gas pipeline installation firm. That guy is seriously balling mehn!

We still dey find DX and Dy like say our life depends on it.

I was among the dullard in our classroom back in the days. I always took the position of second to the last, and the reason why I didn't take the last position was because the grand undisputed dullard was a mental disturbed girl, I felt for her them.
Fast forward to this day (2 June 2017) I'm now the most overachiever and the envy of everyone, they all couldn't believe their eyes when ever they bumped into me during shopping.
This shows that the most intelligent and hard worker don't always become successful... Majority of them Eggheads /book heads and the over Sabi students during my secondary school days are now class room teachers and daycare workers with peanuts for salary, what a pity!
President Buhari, Dino Malaye and Donald Trump are few living proofs you don't need to be the most intelligent to be successful wink
you ve not told us what u do and HOW. leave story!

i wasn't a dullard i know myself, but while in sec schl then, the best position i took then was the 4th position in JSS3, the other positions were second to last, i even repeated SS1, many of my class mates then always look down on me, i never do things perfect, some of them will boldly call me an OLODO. but thank God for today, thank God for what He is doing in my life and what He will still do in my life..
