MEN OF GOD ARE MEN!!!
Several months ago, I was in a bus on Lagos Mainland when a young intelligent Christian Brother held the whole passengers spell-bound condemning a prominent Man of God who separated from his wife. This young man explained to the keenly interested audience how for more than 10 years he had been a loyal disciple of that Man of God and he ended up disappointing him and God. Suddenly I interrupted him and asked him if for those years his life and his marriage was blessed by this Pastor. He said yes but added that "A Divorcee and Adulterer cannot preach anything to him again!" That was when I took time to explain to everyone in the bus how that young man lacked love and concern for someone who for several years have helped in shaping his life and marriage. Even the Bible says "He that watereth shall be Watered". When your own marriage passes through messy crisis and dirty conflicts, you open up to your pastor and he keeps your secrets and prays for you and settles you. Satan is vexed sorely for how he helps you and Several others in your shoes. But the second your Pastor's life or home experiences a small hitch that is magnified by Journalists and Jobless Bloggers, you of all people join Agents of Satan to crush him and nail him the more. It's not fair.

With reoccurring and recurrent torrents of accusations and counter-accusations against certain Men of God, it has become pertinent of me to put some records straight. Men of God are first of all MEN and they always remain men all through their lives. If God will wait for humans to become perfect before using them for his work, then God will have to wait till eternity. However in the Wisdom of the Only Wise God, He chooses the WEAK things of this world to shame the things that are strong. He uses the dishonourable things to surprise the honourable ones.
That is God. So don't be too shocked is a highly revered Man of God does an online chat with a supposed prostitute (whether true or not) after all in public a harlot used her tears and hair to wipe the feet of Christ and to break alabaster perfume on him. In public! Do not be shocked if a Man of God has serious Issues with his wife, pray for them to overcome do not become the CNN of Satan. Don't seek for the downfall or unclothedness of anyone making efforts to depopulate Hell. Because the Gates of hell will not rest. But they will surely fail in Jesus name.

I will start by asking, can experience (with no educational background) make up for a lack of degree, or does a degree provide something that experience cannot? Is one more valuable than the other? Here lies the argument.

I will say the two argument depends on the spectrum you are viewing ir or rather the side of the fence you are sitting, this issue can be personal and most times emotional.

VIEW POINTS

I have seen people with many years of applicable work experience but no degree, and i have also seen multiple candidate's with degree but with no single work experience. Which of the two is now moew valuable to a coy?

To buttress my point, in a certain year there was an heavy shake up in a certain financial institution in lagos affecting a lot of experienced employer. What led to the shake up? Many of their senior staffs were moving closer to their retirement stage, and the bank knew the situation of the economy then was not conducive for a payoff, they strategized and came up with the idea of hiring a consultant to carry out a thorough investigation on all their experienced staffs. The investigation carried out reveals that many of their experienced staffs had no degree but a forged certificate. However, many of this staffs are the core strength of that financial institution with position ranging from risk, strategics and planning, procurement etc. Now the question? If those staffs with no traceable degree could hold sensitive position for that duration, of what benefit is a degree or paper qualification to performance?

Do you know that the founder of leadway insurance started with no degree (i stand corrected)? Do you know that FCMB started in same manner? The founder of a famous indiginous construction company in Lagos started with no degree (name withheld) and the coy is still waxing strong after over 20years. If that founder (with no degree but experience) applied for a job position in either Julius Berger, G-Kappa, D'Alberto etc will he qualify or be employeable? However, the question is followed by endless responses debating the issue. Obviously, there are specific cases where the question is mute.

TRUTH

Regardless of personal preference, what quality does a degree holder possess that an experience person(with no degree) does not have. Our employers will say -

1. A proven ability to analyze problem, conduct research and produce solutions
2. A proven ability to learn complex, difficult subject matter
3. Proof of intelligence
4. Better interpersonal skills
5. More credible qualifications

BUT I DISAGREE

Can we conclude that a person with experience does not possess all that? Are those with degree consistent with all those requirements? This is my root frustration with employers with a defined job requirements and how they will continue to miss out on a large pool of experience candidate's with no degree.

CONCLUSIONS

If you think a degree holder is better than a person with experience but no degree, then i say, bring a PhD holder in mechanical engineer (if any) and a road side mechanics for a presentation. The PhD holder may prevail with 'Smart terms and Linguistics' but the road side mechanic will thrill the audience with 'practical methodologies'.

Too much consideration of paper qualification has batterred the Nigerian society & rendered it TECHNOLOGICALLY backwards

I dont blame him, wen they have put him on top of those that have worked so hard & for so long, why wont he talk trash?

True it's 1/10th of your personal income & a dependent student has no income. Dont get it twisted
