Op,with the way the "church" business/economy is booming in Nigeria,I find it quite hard to believe that you are trying to discourage the "sons of man" from going to study CRK as first degree. Or don't you see how some of our clerics and "ministers" are living opulently and ostentatiously? Please extricate CRK from that list with immediate effect.

I cant believe that the sole purpose of getting a degree is to get a job that is ridiculous. A biochemist should be able to mass produce plantain sucker through his biochemostry study

Nigeria is one of the few countries in the world where if you fail to study a professional course, you are as good as unemployed. Year in, year out, as the professional courses get inundated by a large population who are determined to make something good out of their lives.

There are several courses in Nigeria in which obtaining a first degree is a good as useless because your chances of getting employed are very limited by what you can be able to offer to the society.
Please Note that this is strictly the writer's opinion and observation.

1. MICROBIOLOGY:
The moment you start this course, they will try by all means to tell you about how you are relevant in every aspect of human existence on earth. You will be informed about how you can possibly make a career out of it and even solve the problems of the society. You will keep hearing such beautiful and wonderful things until you are about to leave the university. With this course, a first degree is totally useless as your chances of getting employed are minimal. By having a higher degree, you can increase your chances of being gainfully employed.

2. BIOCHEMISTRY
This is similar to its brother stated in one above. They are both birds of the same feather who naturally flock together. Your undergraduate degree is as good as useless.

3. PSYCHOLOGY
Although googling this discipline may reveal some mouth watering opportunities for the graduate, I have a bad news for you, an undergraduate degree is totally useless.

4. RELIGIOUS STUDIES

5. BIOLOGY

Feel free to include yours,
copied from www.palmchatnow.com
You forget to add Engineering, Medicine and Surgery, Pharmacy, Economics, ICT, Law, Accounting etc. What make the courses you mentioned useless with first degree? So, a course is useless if after studying it (how well you studied it does not even matter) you failed to he a job. Must everyone graduate be employed by someone? Why not look at what you can do with the acquired knowledge and skills.
