If you are not strong headed enough to trust your guts and believe in the path uve chosen even when things arnt moving smoothly...you cannot be your own boss...

One thing affects the Nigerian youth the most...
The parental fear that has been transfered to them...
If one doesn't break away and discover who you are, being your own boss will be a task...one will rather just be guided by the illusion of "job security" and the treats of salary increment , free accommodation etc
True, this is the reason most youth brake away from Nigeria and seek to find themselves somewhere else be it abroad or different region.I took that decision after my NYSC to go to the Uk and I'm damn glad I did when I did then.

I share same aspiration wit u. next year I want to go learn how to sew clothes(fashion) even though am into biz already. Ibring in phones and supply to people who sell. I don't see that as a biz DT will take all my time. I always wanted to learn a handwork.
Good choice,when you finish learning you can add the experience you already have in Biz as a finishing touch and you can do your own fasion Biz diff from everyone else.This is called Biz Module.

Another Ignorant Fellow on the verge of wasting millions of Naira!!

Guy - The possibility of relocating permanently should be the reason for travelling abroad. If you think a Foreign Certificate still has the same prestige in Nigeria as before, you are on a loooooooong thing.
I have to agree with you on this one,Having a foreign degree should not be put in per as having an advantage over your peer in Nigeria rather seen as self development and positioning for the international JOB market.

Same thing happened to me. I did my masters in the UK and after 3 years of waiting doing jobs of 30-40k per month. I decided to go into Business and now I can tell you I make that salary in just one week. But I still pray I get a better paying job to do alongside the business and make more money for myself.

The moral of the story is that Nigeria of today is moving away from Paper qualification to what service can you offer me and I pay you in return. We don't value education in this country so there is no use studying abroad or getting higher educational degrees and returning back to Nigeria.
I do not agree with you on that last paragraphs,Take the Uk as a case sturdy, they are more interested in waht you can do ratehr than your degree,Having that in mind, you are rated higher if you have a degree to back waht you are doing.But this brings back that fact that in the UK they go to school really early.U start with a low paying job to gain experience and you learn on teh JOB,Now we do not have that in Nigeria.
Besides, there are loads of other courses and training you undertake while in JOB and this is backed by training and development laws.

To me a foreign certificate isn't an advantage except you're attending a very top university or a school well recognized in a particular area.

Most students are after this certificate issue. Most students operate with the "read to pass" mentality. You read to pass and after the exam what you learnt is gone com'on, that means you just have a certificate to prove you went to school and not that you're a professional.

Therefore don't come here and give excuse on not finding a job. This world is a customer driven economy so find your way.
i will disagree with you on this one,Them lot over there can apply for a Job in Canada, Oz,Europe and if they have the skill set which they don't at the moment,the might be invited for an interview,well can you say the same for teh cert from UNIBEN?

Employment in the Uk requires Visa and rights to work in the UK, so you can guess why that wont work even if the are the best in their class.
They can also apply for international Jobs as the UK cert is recognized world wide.I think who ever wrote the original article blew it outta proportion.

Timossa:
Informative thread. For the fact that my first degree is not from Nigeria and I also have more than 50 certificates outside Nigeria to the ones in Nigeria. I still see every reason to become an Entrepreneur all over again.

At some points, I was submitting CVs to different places and countries, got a job in Republic of Benin few months ago, the management was not able to pay for a month salary, then I came back to my country. By 2017, I want to go into fashion designing despite the fact that I can paint houses and buildings.

Both males and females are open to learning a handiwork, its very germane. I can never marry a lady who does not have a handiwork or plenty of it but solely relies on her paper qualifications. Who does that this day?

It's hightime we started building up our entrepreneurial skills and enterprise spirit to succeed in Nigeria and beyond. Our unborn children should be taught and exposed to vocational skills, business acquisition, making giant leaders out of them and business tycoons.

I want us to embrace hard work, skill-sets, leadership, innovation, entrepreneurship and vocational thirst for skills and acquisition.

Thank you all.
Well said,Everybody want to get employed, whats wrong about becoming your own Boss

Car Talk › Re: BRAKE SYSTEM CARE 101: Caring For Your Brake System Components & Fluids by erico2k2(m): 12:12pm On Dec 18, 2016
jideakins:
Would you have parts to rebuild the caliper of most brands? more importantly do you guys sell Brake grease?
I'm sorry Erico2k2, we do not have brake caliper rebuild kits at the moment as we still have our hands full expanding our high performance ceramic brake pad stock to cater to the needs of more brand of vehicles in the Nigerian market. On the brake grease issue, we are working on making our silicone based brake lubricant available in the market soon. Silicone based lubricants are the best for brake component lubrication, especially the caliper guide pins due to the presence of petroleum based materials such as the dust boots. Any form of petroleum based lubricants on the caliper guide pins will cause more problems as they will damage the dust boots.
If I was you I would concentrate on Brake Grease as the falure of most brake system comes from jamming of brakes due to lack of lubrication, as it stands there are little or non in that area of market.The brake pads market is saturated and lack of lub for the brake system would kill your brake pads anyway.

Mujtahida:
Specifically when banks sell currencies what have they produced? And you do not know how banks make all the money. Banks make money out of thin air through fractional reserve banking and the money that banks lend to you and me, whose money is it? Is it not depositors money? Your money is lent to me at high interest rates and yet the return to you in terms of interest is almost zilch. You do not see anything wrong or unjust with that. But when MMM gives 30% interest you guys go to town and start crying that it is a fraud.
Plz if you do not know how banks make their Money you should ask and you would be told.
How much do Nigerians have as savings ?
I don't mean in current account .
Do U know some banks pay interest up to N200k Monthly ?

APC supporters in Rivers state have staged a solidarity rally for Nigerian police.According to them, full investigation into the bribery audio tape indicting Governor Wike should be carried out.They were pictured with various placards with many inscriptions like 'bloodthirsty Wike on the prowl again' and more.

Hon Asita and other APC leaders used the avenue to hand over the audio tape of leaked Wike tape to the police

Politics › Re: The Locally Built Ship By Navy In Lagos That President Buhari Will Launch Today by erico2k2(m): 10:05pm On Dec 15, 2016
Graphene:
Exactly sir. The engine, generators and most instrumentation equipments were bought. The ship as you see it NNS KARADUWA was manufactured in nigeria by Nigerians.

Funny thing is that as of when the project began, a 24 year old nigerian spear headed the quality team that ensured the ship meets national and international standards (ABS)

Also, to put matters in perspective, the project was started in the Jonathan administration.

God bless Nigeria.
Sounds good, this is encouraging, however Im looking 4ward to when the govt will invest more in tech machines N50M should get them fairly decent CNC milling machine that can make parts of an Engine and they can develop from there.

The parts that were "manufactured", if I am to use that, are; the frames (designed by the Navy, cut at NIVAFER, using CNC), keel, hull (frames+keel) manufactured locally, tanks, Superstructure, bridge, internal cabins, communication mast, decks, bollards, vents, handrails, gunbase etc. And if you want I can show you the complex shapes of the frames thAt make up the hull.
So I take it they bought an Engine to install in teh boat then

Mr Eric, he is referring to the vessel's engines. The engines and propellers were procured. Just like your phone, parts are sourced from diff sources and when put together makes up an entity. For your ignorance sake, we have CNC machines that produce gears in Nigeria
If you checked my initial question was what part did they manufacture.
And for calling me ignorant I will ask you to tell me waht CNC machine that cut gears owned in NIgeria and waht company
Im waiting
NB CNC do not produce they mill/cut.

You got into many relationships that never worked, and no one is mocking you in public. You got into a marriage that crashed, yet your friends are not on facebook celebrating your pain, and you haven't killed yourself yet. Your many attempts at businesses have failed and you lost money, yet you are still alive. You have taken many risks that never paid off, yet you are still moving on with hope.

Now you advised your friend not to do MMM, but he went for it anyways. MMM is frozen for 30days, atleast so we heard, and you find joy in taking to facebook to mock your friend JUST TO BE PROVED RIGHT. Same way you pray for the failure of the government you didn't vote for JUST TO BE PROVED RIGHT.

I have taken time to read the MMM freezing report, it is a shame that you have decided to take that report out of context, add salt and pepper, just to cause panic and unnecessary tension. Many people have fainted because they read your false version of MMM story. Will you also celebrate on facebook if they commit suicide tomorrow on account of your mockery?

Even if they were careless in taking risk with MMM, must you add to their sorrow?

Don't you have any conscience sire? Are you not a hypocrite?

If that young man came to you for help, even to borrow money before MMM, would you have given him? How many of you have helped poor people the way MMM has in the last year(i speak based on the testimonies in the mouth of Nigerians). In October i met a young man in Port Harcourt who moved from someone's house as a squatter to a one-bedroom apartment and i still remember the joy with which He glorified God for MMM. How many people have glorified God for your help and support, STINGY YOU!

There is a high level of moral bankruptcy in this nation. People are more willing to celebrate the pains of fellow Nigerians than anything else. It is the same reason they go to accident scenes, and their first impulse is not to help but snap and post gorry pictures on facebook to extract AMEN from people.

If you know you have never done things that failed in your life, then continue mocking your MMM friends.......

My name is chima lusty and i hate hypocrisy!
This is different .the official body that governs finance in Nigeria issued a warning . But greed got the better of them
