Vickho:ASUU didnt do this to you sir. FG Should be blamed for constructing Railway from Iran to Dubai instead of paying even half of the money to ASUU. Lecturers are poorly paid that’s why they force all those textbook, sorting, etc on us (students). They rarely drive Good cars, own luxury houses etc yet dem dey come school everyday, dey lecture Bsc, Msc, PGd, ND, HND, et all. Take more than 2 lectures at each Edu stage everyday. Make Musa try bring Money Abeg, if nah my papa i no for gree because for this safe country some people are heavily paid for just doing nothing. Just come and seat, as you dey stand up dey go 3-8 million. I support ASUU anytime, mek FG look their matter abeg. 1 Like |

Johnchrix: expect you are not leaving in Nigeria, everything you typed is complete trash and you shouldn't be allowing this nonsense out of your brain.. it will make people think you are stupid. what knowledge and enlightenment does school give with their outdating low self-esteem curriculum? '...he should be empowering people..', with what exactly? do higher gift graduate funds after graduation? where do you him to get the fund to build a business and start employing and empowering people within a short time after graduation ? '..Little capital, massive return..' come, listen to me, you very stupid.. |

What will be will be. Meanwhile, you can save some time by starting your professional Examinations now. Study well right away. Perhaps by the time you are finishing the degree programme, you will also be a qualified Chartered Accountant. This is best course for you. Do not waste your time on frivolities. Burn the midnight oil! |

Harrykn:I don't think the struggle is mainly for the money. The bone of contention and the main aim of the strike is the payment platform (from IPPIS to ASUU recommended UTAS) and also renegotiation of the 2009 memorandum |

Vickho:The Federal Government is not trying at all sir. This is a very simple issue to negotiate but no, they won’t. Instead more loans, attend international meetings, wait for Tinubu’s downfall, build rail from terror zone to a very peaceful state.

My 4 years turn 6, project work i bin stop @ Empirical concept n till today God knows that I haven’t even opened the file. Everybody is doing anyhow, everywhere is so blindfolded.

JooEeL: Dissolution is a long term solution. So you expect students to sit,fold their arms and wait for dissolution? Give us a short term solution that can get us out of this mess while working towards dissolution.If not,you've just said nothing! |

Take things easy bro. I finished school at 20, service at 21 and I didnt get a job until I was 25. Its not really about how early you finish school the most important thing is knowing the right thing at the right time. School won't even teach you or prepare you for the outside world. Just brace up and be close to God. Nigeria is a wilderness for the less privileged. You'll be fine irrespective, worry less. 2 Likes |

Your focus now should be becoming the most marketable accounting graduate you can be. This is 100% within your control. 1. Ensure you finish with a first class 2. Certification: Writing ICAN should be a no-brainer for you. If you have the finances, write CFA instead. This would give you a soft landing into investment banking which does not have rigid age restrictions. 3. Internship: You also need to complete 1-2 internships before you graduate. This ASUU strike period is a good time to start hunting for internships. To secure internships, try sending cold emails selling yourself to recruiters/HR rep in your target companies. Linkedin should be your friend to get these contacts. Most companies emails follow this pattern - firstname.lastname@companyname.com. 4. Sharpen your technical skills - you need to master MS powerpoint & excel. There are free Youtube courses for this. 5. Move to Lagos (another no brainer). Ensure you "work" your NYSC location to Lagos and your NYSC posting to a reasonable company in Lagos so you do not waste another extra year. 6. Get close to God, you need Him on your side. These things work based on leverage. Being on a first class track + writing certification + technical skills makes you attractive for undergrad internship recruiters. A first class grad + ICAN/CFA + Undergrad internships + technical skills makes you more attractive for premium Graduate roles despite your age. When you are in Lagos, you are closest to the best opportunities and you have young, smart, like-minded graduates who will put you on your toes. Stop worrying and get to work. If you do all these things I mentioned, even village people cannot stop you. Alternatively, you can pivot to tech. Replace learning programing languages with the certification I listed up there. Then rinse and repeat. Goodluck! 2 Likes |

2braithe: It is short-term solutions since 1990 that has brought us to where we are today. Small manageable but ultimately useless short-term solutions is why ASUU has struck more than 20 times in the last 20 years. If you are from Yoruba land, go and ask your parents what education was like when Yoruba was at least in its regional government and see what we achieved. There were no useless strikes. School was affordable and free for the most part. In fact, Awolowo's education policy had Yoruba well-to-do volunteering in many ways. Many gave out their buildings and lands for free education. This was our trajectory until One Nigeria dislodged us. Many of the Oduduwa institutions built within that period: OAU, UI etc. are still the remaining citadels holding out its glory still -- albeit fading. Long and short, the time for that long-term solution is now! |
