The problem is the system...


Read today a topic at the front page how the young was sent a job invite from the school he graduated from... His master's degree.


Heard people say that the schools in the Europe will often give out your names to companies for employment.

In Nigeria, you're asked to go on a compulsory youth service and after that, you return to your father's house ...

If PHD holders can be applying for driver position in dangote industries then what's first class. The way Nigeria is at the moment without God and right connection, you degree is useless. It's just an ordinary A4 paper

Go to places like Minna, ekiti, ondo state you go see brilliant guys that made first class and second class upper with no job. Some even sit down in bet9ja shops from morning till evening.

I have even seen a master's degree holder doing cashier in a bet shop before in Abuja. He's the oldest amongst the cashier. Imagine ssce holders talking to him anyhow because of the situation of the country

Yes. In a bet9ja shop in kubwa Abuja. If not that the guy showed me proofs and pictures I would have doubted him.

How u wish the mods can push this topic to the front page. You go hear more shocking stories. When people are saying Nigeria is gone. I didn't really understand the really meaning of that statement until I graduated from the university 5years ago.

Yes it is, I have a first class currently working on my site as a Labourer. The day the person that brought him to my site told me about him, I started shedding tears.
Right now am even looking for job for him because its becoming increasingly difficult for me to behold a first class working as a Labourer on my site.

He also has to be creative and not just be looking for jobs. You see that Ojota chemical market in Lagos, he can comfortably earn his livelihood there if he is determined.

You think if people think this way, they wouldn't be in the position they are. That was why I asked if your career path had prospects the last time, because I was tired of people not being able to tie their passion to income generating careers.

He is probably brilliant but had no guidance growing up. I'm afraid that with his mindset, he will suffer more downfall. The art of making money is basically providing value that people can pay for, simple as abc. Your certificates don't matter in that regard, and when they actually do, it is because your certificate in that career path is what people are willing to pay for. You cannot pursue a career that your economy doesn't cater for, except you leave that economy.

Mine was income generating before I arrived the UK, even from my third year as an undergraduate working in a therapy practice. I remember our H.O.D back then telling us in our first year that if by our third year we are not already earning income from what we have been taught, we are just wasting our time! wink

I know that Ojota chemical market very well because it was my hood, guys who mix chemicals there are cashing out. There is a lady who trended recently (not naming her), she is a 2.1 graduate of chemistry from Unilag and she is into bespoke body cream, many celebs are her clients and she is earning very well.

She is definitely providing value, thats why she is making it. I am sure this 1st class graduate has been carrying his CV about without doing anything tangible since.

It's possible though if the first class graduate doesn't have sufficient information but it's very very rare honestly. Also I think depends on school. I don't think a first class graduate of unilag can drive Keke. He would have known about GRE and all foreign exams before graduation and a vast alumni network that would happily pay for all of that if the person is willing.

How many graduate trainee jobs has he applied to? How many job tests has he written? How many did he ace? How many interviews has he been involved in? Has he heard about GRE? Has he attempted GMAT in his life? How old is he presently?

Those are questions he needs to answer.

A Unilag First Class graduate becoming a Keke Rider? Not Possible, right?

In my School Delsu, Abraka, First Class Graduates had lots of Juicy and Lucrative offers upon Graduation. (Particularly during the administration of Emmanuel Uduaghan. Cant say for Okowa.)
Even UNIBEN First Class graduates are Big boys in Town!

So i find it hard to believe all those Keke and Okada stuffs.

First class graduates from most Federal and even State universities are retained as lecturers.

So it is very rarely possible to see such.

Yes, if you have First Class in senseless courses e.g. Philosophy, Sociology, Anthropology, Geography, e.t.c.

If you study any of the courses I listed above, and you are angry that I mentioned your useless course, and you cannot just ignore and lick your wounds in silence. If you quote me and throw abuses and curses, I will give you Fire for Fire. I am available and ready.

If it's First Class in Yoruba language, he will become a Babalawo and be doing Juju for Yahoo boys.

If it's First Class in Igbo language, he will become Dibia and be doing Juju for those who wants to traffic drugs abroad.

So, it's definitely First Class in some other useless courses that have turned to curses.
