jawalis:Exactly. Degrees defer from degrees. Islamic studies and Fine Arts or Theatre Arts in a society like ours where hunger has created a robust food market and so much land has made agriculture attractive is like a waste. Go to the schools and you see a huge accounting dept or law dept. What happens to all the emerging fields that are key to basics human needs like health, transport, communication, food and commerce? |

Teejeybaba: I have come to realize that education is just a means to an end. It's like a vehicle to take you from point A to B, that is to say, what you become in life is more dependent on your natural abilities, what you were able to learn (not the certificate o), what relationships you make, and how you apply all of the above. There's overemphasis on formal education in Nigeria, people go to school without considering what they're good at, and how they intend to apply the knowledge afterwards. This is what leads to the non-application, and the attendant feeling of unfulfillment even for people who are lucky enough to be employed, that is not to downplay the terrible labour market, but I still believe that if many people go to school with the right purpose and mindset, unemployment will be a lot lower. As to whether to go to a polytechnic, or even learn a trade, it still boils down to ones talents, and inclination. I have this mate in secondary school that went to a polytechnic to study building technology, also went outside the school system to learn it practically, and started building houses for people right off the bat. He's doing better than most of us today (but depends on what gives one satisfaction). My advice to younger ones is to imagine the end from the beginning, what will I do with this degree, is it the best fit for me? Ask questions from older and more experienced people where you have to...and don't take any course they give you, just because you have to go to school. So many courses being offered in Nigerian universities, ought to have been extinct 10years ago. 1 Like |

Teejeybaba: It is. Don’t be fooled. If you have no degree, the world won’t be open to you. The Nigerians in Canada today, UK etc are there because of their degrees. And even more a good result is important too. EDUCATION IS KEY!! |

It's supposed to be a waste or just something personal. But shallow people turned it into an employment requirement. Skills and experience should be the valuable thing, not degree |

CodeTemplar:Unfortunately, Nigeria is a religious country bereft of morals and humanity. Thus, those who studied Islamic religion and theology are more employed than any other field in Nigeria. Check out the thousands of "reverends "and shieks out there. |

If you want to further your study after you took waec/neco Find a good School abroad even if it in Ghana or South Africa our system of Education here Is pretty poor and to find a job abroad with Nigeria degree will be very tough. Nowadays, recruiters do not care about what you had in your CGPA be it 5.0 or 2.0 the most important thing to them how skilful you were. Most Nigeria students who graduated with first-class are just bookworm they read for the exam they do not read to acquire skill, not all though, it is not their fault, however, It is the way Education is organised in Nigeria. We have many graduates who still went to learn a skill related to the Course they major in University. |

My advice to the young ones, your degree may be useless but your academic brilliance will prove most important. Do not be a dullard , brush up on your writing skills, math skills, technical skills, science , networking skills and so forth. You will never know when your skills will be needed and you have to earn a salary or find work at home or outside naija. 3 Likes 1 Share |

CodeTemplar: Na by connection. Oga Patami with his degree and zero working experience is a minister today. On the other hand you are correct because, most of the courser we are studying in sch are all outdated and irrelevant in our world. Another thing Nigerian youths should know is that, getting a job is a journey not a destination. One day you will be retired or fired and you might come back to square one. I wish everyone good luck. |

If you spend time to getting a degree and stay in Nigeria, it is a complete waste of your time. For the females, who mostly have sex for grades, it is much easier. Stay in Nigeria and hustle or get your degree and use it to exit Nigeria. 1 Like |
