Meet Lady With Bsc In Maths And Masters In Actuarial Science Who Sells Food by faith2kool(f): 6:56am On Jan 14, 2022
Doris Obenewaa a First Degree holder in mathematics and a Masters holder in Actuarial Science has resorted to selling food due to unemployment.

Narrating her story in an interview, Doris indicates that she holds a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics after which she went ahead to study for an MSc in Actuarial Science, both at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology.

She added that during her first year in Akwamuman SHS in Akosombo where she studied General Science, the brilliant young lady lost her mother and in the first year after SHS, her father suffered a terrible stroke.

She resorted to studying Mathematics and barely had any support from anyone as she had to virtually do everything for herself and rely on the kindness of some strangers throughout her four-year school period.

After national service, Doris was offered a 3-month contract and then moved to a contracting company (ESCO company limited) within Goldfields with a role as a Data Analyst.

In less than a year, she was able to gather enough money and enrolled for her Masters in Actuarial Science in KNUST as a distance learning student.

But after a month of starting school, my contract was terminated for the reason that my schooling was taking most of my attention,” Doris recalls.

All of Doris’ savings were exhausted and she never got any other job, for which reason she had to resort to the sales of hair products and then moved on to start cooking, which was always her hobby.

“I loved to cook, garnish & post on my social media page. So I had people admiring my work and encouraging me to start my own food business. In January 2020, she heeded to the advice & invested the little savings I made from my hair product business to start OB’s Kitchen,” Doris narrates.

Speaking of her future aspiration, Doris intends to grow OB’s kitchen into a big restaurant with branches all over Ghana. However, she still seeks a corporate job as she desires to put her studies into use and also pursue a PhD.

Nice one. I wish you more success.
In whatever you do, get certified and acquire a skill. Both are vital.

Don't listen to those that pay more attention to one. The two go hand in hand. Ciao.

Isn't it better for her?

This is one major problem with our tertiary institutional system.. students wasting their precious time with stupid and irrelevant courses. How does one apply actuarial science or mathematics in a failed system like Nigeria?

I have one in my area then, this one got so frustrated that she became so unkept and can be mistaken for a mad woman. The situation of Nigeria is very terrible.

Parents invest all they have on their children hoping they will make a living off it someday, but in the end our politicians have eaten the Future... If you are a thief or a Yahoo boys and you choose to dupe poor Nigerian masses instead of politicians, na 3 feet grave them go put you this year

Our educational system never provided any value, people just waste their time and resources with hope that something tangible would become of them thereof but in the end, Emeka wey serve him master for 4 years and Uche wey go school for fours, Las Las Emeka has learnt value which equals to money while Uche has not only dispointed his parents because the school failed to instill value, Uche is also depressed, frustrated and disappointed at life with a touch of ulcer resulting from many days, mornings and evenings on staying hungry, using the little cash to sort lecturers with hope, just with hope say something fit happen but Las Las Uche wey do computer science no fit touch mouse. May God not allow our children to drink of that tea called PoverTea!

Good for her. There are so many people like her too.
Just like me, I studied physics at the University of Lagos(unilag), but today I am fashion designer/stylist.. Having a degree and craft skill is actually a plus because it would make one stands out among those that are not educated among one's competitors/colleagues in the biz...

This is exactly what I did. Infact, on the day of my last paper, I wore a deep brown native attire so that no soul would sign on me. I quietly fled home afterwards and prayed.
