Schools keep churning out millions of 'graduates' yearly, with millions more aspiring to gain admission. Majority hoping to secure non-existent jobs on graduation, fewer numbers hoping to make their marks as entrepreneurs in one of the most hostile and least rewarding business environment in the world.
It is well with our souls.
