My brother, the educational system in private universities are as good as they get

How can one explain a 2.1 graduate in any field not getting a job is it the same all over the world ? why Nigeria ?

Our universities are not as bad as they seem but things need to be done

answer = bad economy

So Nigeria is in dire need of expatriates to fill various vacancies because our system of education is so flawed that we can't produce enough technocrats?.

The bad economy has a role play but the truth is that thousands if not millions of expatriates are occupying juicy positions because of our poor educational system. How many computer science graduates can write a simple book keeping application or even excell macros, how many of our accountancy graduates can put peach tree or sage to a professional use. An engineering once complained that he made 2.1 with out being able to differenciate between a spanner and a screw driver. Our biochemistry graduates can not produce ordinary body lotion, the litany of woes are endless. Now add to it the fact that most graduates study what is entirely unneeded by the nigerian economy such as music,philosophy,religious studies, pol sc, sociology,soil sc, archeology etc. Off course the graduates would not equally tell u what grade of result they graduated with. The truth is that as high as 50-70% of all graduates from nigerian schools graduate with a third class or worse that's why many banks and companies keep firing staffs with fake credentials. Needless to say many never graduate at all. I would stop here for now

on DECEMBER 3, 2011 · in NEWS

Lagos – Chief Ernest Shonekan, former Head of Interim Government, on Saturday urged Nigeria Undergraduate Exhibition of Art (NUXART) to pay greater attention to works of art.

Shonekan, who made the call at the 9th NUXART in Lagos, said that art could enable them become entrepreneurs.

The theme of the exhibition is “Youth: Catalyst for National Transformation.“

He said that although he was not an artist but had passion for the works of art and always appreciated them.

“It is this passion for art that gets me enthused. Works of art is an intimate part of our culture and it helps a great deal to preserve the culture they represent.

“It is important for undergraduates to take the works of art seriously because it helps in revealing the sophistication of past civilizations,“ he said.
