So we should just vote for them without any track record. What have they done in past capacities?...where have they headed? What makes you think they will do well when they become president?...

Abeg go and rest.

Ppl who said you shouldn't worry about it are wicked ppl.
What to do
1.Discuss with him .If he is willing to work on it,he should allow you to monitor his finances since you are the more prudent type.

If he doesn't .Pls have a plan B.Save save save and face front .After your baby ,pls Lee nkwucha.as in family planning.Don't allow pregnancy happen again that is if you choose to remain.

I have experienced it though mine is a cheerful giver.very cheerful but now I keep our money and only transfer to his account what we feel he needs.
If not you are on a long sorrowful journey.

We live in a country whereby most of the degrees we acquired do not correlate with our jobs. I graduated from the Department of Political science & International relations, but I currently work in a heavy equipment operator training firm where I am earning well. Most of our trainee operators earn more than what some firms or banks can pay their employees in a month. We have trained Ph.D. holders, masters, and even BSc graduates to operate heavy machinery. Therefore, working in a company or a bank as an accountant does not mean good pay. some bank workers are earning between 50k to 100k depending on their duties and ranks. Maybe he is earning more as a laborer.

I am sorry am just doing a response to this question, but I know it will help someone.

I did my kiosk and painting for 70k(August 2020). I got a good space with the help of God and paid 28k for one year rent. I got my first machine for 65k(you don't need to buy an expensive machine like that) I later bought a machine for 20k and it's the terminal doing the magic till today.

I did wiring and fan for 10k. I did banner and branding for 7k. I bought the plank I placed on the gutter I put my kiosk on and its workmanship for 15k. They're actually very strong ones and a still enjoying them till today. People pass on it every minutes (not necessarily my customers alone).

I started the business with 150k capital. I will put 50k in the machine and put 100k in my hand. The story has changed today. As I type, I've over 900k cash with me, not to talk of what I've in my terminals.

You can always ask me your questions or send a message via Nairaland.

If only Buhari and the fellow 36 governors of the federation could hear Nigerians cry and enact a law stating any Yahoo boy caught should be shot dead on spot or some of em summarily conscripted into the Army and sent to the war front, maybe things can start changing for the better amongst our Youth.

Oh I so miss Gen Sani Abacha, Allah rest his soul.

dapolaw:
Sit down there and still be looking for jobs with your so call 2:1.


I graduated with 2:1 even with certifications in Oracle, but when I look tire for jobs and I no see. I kukuma started exporting charcoal, and my stories has changed ever since then. Thank God I never got those jobs then , maybe frustration wouldn't have pushed me into the charcoal business.

Beedude:

His case is a self inflicted depression/suicide. A barber or okada rider with 2 wives ? Haba !
U cant be earning less than 300k monthly in this present economy and think u can sustain 2 wives. The guy is just a fool. Na people like him dey kidnap and rob with okada cos the work cant cater for their family.
Na him do himself

OladiTwo5:


I did some IT training(CCNA, Mobile app development and I also learn SQL), later on, I got an internship role on data analyst(because of my little or no SQL skills) and without getting paid for like 1 good year.

The experience I gathered during my internship is what is paying off now.
I'm almost at the edge of being a Machine Learning Engineer

I've also worked for like 3 top companies in Nigeria.

The only time my education certificate features is when I have accepted the companies offer, and I am call me for documentation

OladiTwo5:


Brother, you've taken the right decision. What if you later retake the course and you get below A? then you will graduate with 2.2.
It happens to me then in LAUTECH, guess what? till now that i have been working, i haven't use my certificate to work, and i'm leaving confortably

no matter what, "what will be will surely be" regardless of your grade. Just try and add value to yourself.

AmazingELixir:



Young man better used that extra one year to go and enhance you degree by enrolling in a masters programme...there are tons of 2.1s and First class products littered over the job market with nothing to hold on to.

damosky12:


LOL. 1 m? You are disconnected from the Nigerian reality. You have to climb off your high horse and smell the coffee.

There are families of four five six who live on less than 100k per month. And they are not dieing.

There is a cloth for every size.

BTW, how many people get jobs that pay 400k? Let's just be grateful. What you have (no matter how small) is wealth to others...

crestedaguiyi:


Yeye talk.

Assuming he is married with 2 kids, what do you think their schools fees will be for just 2 kids.

You dont dress anyhow to such jobs

What of fuel for gen and car
What of parents upkeep
What of rent
What do you think the cost of building materials is.

Him no go drink beer for weekend

nokspos:
i voted for this man, i'm really sorry guys

Nyanabo:
I cannot lie sir, he is a family friend. He is a security man at a hotel close to Rivers state University

Nyanabo:
It all depends sir, if the masters you want to do is in this country Nigeria, sir I advice better take thelat job. Before Masters is to give you an edge over other candidates in the job markets but now it's become so saturated that employers don't even value them no more. So why not take up the job and do a part time masters program?

But

If the MSc is outside the country and you have enough funds/sponsors to cover all expenses I would say you go for the master outside the country. After your program you would have more opportunities with the work permit you would be issued, compared to this country. Just my own opinion.

Again if the masters is in this country forget it and take up that job. I know someone with masters that's a gate man. I know someone with a 2.1 BSc. That his boss wife just called stupid yesterday.

Lastmankc:
The surest way to poverty is marrying as a poor man without reliable sources of income.

30naira:


Aunty, no vex, but it's the gospel truth. I'm 28, have a decent job, earn around 250k a month. Getting a decent girl for a healthy relationship is hard, believe me I have tried. The ones you meet will expect you to compete with yahoo boys. Like I can comfortably take care of a woman, but I'm not going to buy a phone worth my 2 months salary, it makes zero sense to me.
At the end I'm labeled 'stingy'. The average Nigerian lady, expecially the Gen Z and millinials want to date fraudsters, that's the simple truth. They don't care how the money comes, as long as you can buy iPhone.

APCNig:


It's okay for a single guy. Please do not get married with 150K salary oooo

freshalien:


Then goodluck! I hope you get to see a whitman in flowing white gown and hair like a woman, drop out of the sky and save you one day. Brainwashed fellow.

saajus:
They are even taking pictures. Why do black leaders get no shame at all? You were a Governor for 8yrs, you've been at the corridor of power for over 30yrs and you are proud being under medical watch in another country.

Honestly, something is fundamentally wrong with black people. We couldn't even be proud of just one black nation that can be classified as advanced nation.

Joysticks:
Yes,their salaries might be slightly higher but there is no promotion or staff.All workers are on casual basis.There is also no leave and they resumes on public holidays.Do your findings.

Joysticks:
A hotel job is the least paid job in Nigeria.You can work 10 years without promotion and salary increment.The only way you can make extra income is by tips from customers or runs.
As beautiful as this hotel is,a waiter and barman might be earning #15 or #18k a month.A cook or supervisor is between #25 and #30k.This is even ikotun not Vi.It can even be less.

TechQe:



Ladies don't tell men. They just codedly walk away

Teleprompter:
When you said there is no financial request of hers that you did not grant...
The relationship was doomed from the onset...
You may not understand it but that's the basic truth.

The mail is very geniue. I got the mail twice.

To be honest, I don't know. A lot of people dive into programming, which takes time to learn and become competent at. The person I spoke about while above average as a programmer, had invested his time experimenting on a variety of IT stuff. He currently works as a Linux System admin (which still doesn't pay as much as Programming), but he was very vast. He researched different IT solutions as a hobby. School management solution? He could recommend at least three cost effective solutions for me.to evaluate. Learning Management System? He knew about 5 open source solutions to look at. Business Management Software aka ERP? He could mess around with at least 3. Telephony software? At the drop of a hat he told me of at least 4. All of these ran on Linux so in messing around with them, his Linux Admin skills was being developed. Will this work for everyone? No. But it has worked for him

SirVamo:
See ehn, information is power is all I can say at this point...

Can't believe it's me getting a monthly salary of N300,000 monthly , without stepping out of my house and yes it's going to go higher from ember months ...

Wish I could share with one or two I see saying 30k, damn that money can't do nothing for even 4 days Jeez�

airsaylongcome:


It's terrible man. I have a "smallie" I was mentoring. Worked in IT for a small finance company. Was getting paid those funny figures. Got a remote job. His two weeks pay at his new role was equivalent to 7 months pay at his Finance Company job. To rephrase that, he earned in 2 weeks (while in training o!) what he would have earned in 7 months doing brain draining work, hopping in traffic, and generally being misused.

JesseJo:
Wow...this thread is eye opener for me.

You mean young educated Nigerians earn this kind of miserable amount monthly?

It is well...

Anyway, if you don't mind joining a Fintech Start-Up and you are very good with crunching numbers...I might have a job for you.




Note salary is below N100K but subject to review within 18months. And you have to be resident in Lagos.
