Nice response... Pls, what is your view on COMPTIA A+ in terms of job opportunity in Nigeria today?

It depends on what you want. Do u want to go into servers or network? Well if u desire to go into cisco aim for the peak-CCIE and be a master in it,you willdistingish ur self from every other cisco certified person.
As for microsoft,it is really deep and you must be ready To dive into it. Many corporate and govt org use microsoft packages and its evolving daily.

Note you certification is not u,what you can offer and your skills is what is you.
If possible know the basics of both and decide where ur passion is.
