Lol,,,m serious ohhh

Some virgins no de do well kwa,,me no believe that one @ all

Kekx:
Check the meaning of the word "SCHOOL", then check "SCAM" and tell yourself the correlation.

You are pointless

Kekx:
See hope.

Smh!

Is obvious u don't have any mentor,,,get a mentor and focus to be like him,,its really gona boast ur success

Jupxter:
He has touched lives.I'm moved when i hear cases he handled... Ladies with infertility problems that has reached 5-7 years. Goitres, Cardiac problems, Sexual Infertility, name it..


The average graduate is not better than a toohpick, just to use and throw away, senseless folks. All many do in school is cohabit and fhvk away their destinies

True!!Tho I,don't believe in fucking away of destines,,just pray bad luck don't hit your way

Kekx:
Rhetorical question in the making.

Go to school if you want to.
Hustle if you want to.

Destiny differs, what worked for Peter might not work for Paul.

The only people that will advice you not to go to school are those who weren't opportune to go, those who dropped out and those who didn't make it after graduating.

While, those that succeeded after schooling will advice you to go to school.


Now, this is to tell you that any possible advice you'll get from here will be a sentimental type.


Once again, destiny differs.

Just answer the question!

With what you said or quote the topic,is it a SCAM?

lefulefu:
so bill gates no go school?
where did u get that info?

U don't even know that??no,need of further argument with yourself,,go & read his autobiography

Jupxter:
The aim of education is to develop the mind. Make it the conduit for facilitating great ideas, but then we see people go through school but even after 20 years of education their mind is wrapped up, they can't see across the street. Someone around me handled a few cases brilliant medical dcotros in renowned hospitals couldn't solve, in one of such case, the patient was an elderly man who's daughter was serving in Unilag Teaching Hospital and one of the ebst studnets at the time, it was to cost over 2 Million, there was no hope. The man didnt have the funds, the doctors had no knowledge about what to do, the daughter that had very good knowledge about medicine too was ignorant about what to do...


...Do you know it took a guy who had just a school cert but studies deeply to rescue them? They spent just 40k, to solve a problem the best minds according to them couldn'tsolve. This same person has solved about ten of such cases top hospitals couldn' tsolve, yet i shouldn't say school is a scam, the average Nigerian lecturer is an eddiot, the average nigerian student is a fool, Jonathan or Buhari isn't completely the problem, we should use our heads.



If the mind is under-developed even after 20-25 years of studies, then what is the usefulness of education. Less than 5% of our graduates can say to be anything to write home about, then why should we say school is not a scam. The end product of schooling is a transformed mind, and in the lack of an elightened mind, we can't say school is not a scam

Am touched by your words,,The school is our mind indeed

Thanks for the word

And probably all this happens only in Nigeria

Don't be surprised that de person that healed de elderly man if he was opportune to further more he might be better than some all these doctors,,,mayb due to de way Nigeria education of system works

Kekx:
Bunch of poo with no tangible statistics and prove.

When next you want to have a civil discussion without confusion on education, school and successful related issues, do well not to mislead us with your topic's title.

How can a sane fellow ask if "School is a scam"?
How can?, do you even know that this question has to do with other countries all over the world.

Next time, if you feel like seeking excuses and reasons not to further your education, come with a thread of "Is Education/School in Nigeria a scam"

Not "Is school a scam"


If you fvcking feel education is a scam and useless, try ignorance.


Goodluck!

So u r ranting cos u feelin I didn't use ur well defined topic??

Ok,,mister man,,after ur so called defined topic: Is it a scam?

greiboy:
Education is not a scam. Proper education can always serve as an option regardless of what a person eventually pursue with his/her life.

Most Nigerians believe education can only be acquired in the four walls of a classroom, but there is more to education than that.

Education is the process of facilitating learning, or the acquisition of knowledge, skills, values, beliefs, and habits

Education can be acquired through various means which includes through teaching, research, story telling, discussion etc. Thus, education is not a scam


Now is tertiary education a scam? it depends on who you are speaking with. if you ask a doctor, an engineer working with a top oil company, they might have a different perspective to others.

Note,,,not education....School

Jupxter:
If education isn't a scam whereare all the Nigerians we see becoming the best internationally? How much has education transformed Nigeria?Why dowe look to politicians when it comes to significant national transformation.Perhaps education isn't a scam, our lecturers and many graduates are the dimwits then

Asin ehhh,,,Is just a real scam

lefulefu:
Education is not a scam.Dangote wey many of una dey take shout up and down has a degree in business administration in the univ of Cairo. Though i know someone here might counter me saying dat Davido,whizkid and Timaya no go school but then i recall Davido do im NYSC last year.when u are an illiterate u become intellectually blind.

Haven't your dangote and Davido blow already b4 obatining that cert??

Blow 1st b4 de cert,,Even the world richest man didn't see de 4 walls of school#BILL GATE

kimbraa:
You'll have to be open-minded to get my point. I won't succumb to cheap emotional blackmail if that's the card you want to pull now.

Don't go to school if you don't want but don't ignorantly call it a scam.

Am not only de one calling it scam,,,Even our Environment calls it that

kimbraa:
The only thing I'll have to learn is life 'cause life is a teacher. As far as this topic is concerned, my decision isn't going to change in the future.

KKK,,no one is trying to convince you tho

Jupxter:
School onyl trains people to become workers in other people's businesses...School is a rip-off. The best school is the mind !

The best school is the mind another one,,Explain further

kimbraa:
Having a certificate doesn't automatically mean I'll be marring a guy. If his personality and vision blends with what I desire then I'll be saying yes, if not, my answer will be no.

Lol,.nd maybe definitely u will be waiting for ur destined husband indeed

You are even confuse,,I don't still get you

Kekx:
How do you mean?

80% of Nigeria politicians ain't educated @ 1st tym,,de got de post and manipulated their cert with money

smulti:
this girl is very mean meh !!

funnily enough I still support some of those my graduate younger brothers from time to time because of their meager salaries hoping they would get a better job in the near future but right now Nigeria situation says otherwise

cc oxster this girl says I don't belong to her class oo

come and help me convince her
.

She will soon realize some mistakes

BluntBoy:
School in Nigeria is a scam because of pervasive corruption. Let us start from the topic. What is a lawyer (Fashola) doing in the Ministry of Power?

Now, let us go down. Someone goes to school and struggles to get a degree in Accountancy but a Yoruba graduate gets the accountant job because he/she knows someone that knows the bank owner. The days of meritocracy are long gone. One of the friends I made during NYSC studied Microbiology. She has a top post in a bank today .

So, in Nigeria, school is a scam. Only few people get to practice in their fields. Majority just carry certificates inside folders. Some people do not even use their certificates and yet they operate in a corporate world.

Real Scam Bro

Don't mind her,,she still has alot to see and go through

kimbraa:
It'll be good if you go back 'cause education isn't a scam. And for your information, whether those politicians are considered to be illiterates in your eyes doesn't mean they're illiterates. They have their certificates to prove that they went through the four-walls of a tertiary institution and that's one of the major criteria for them to be elected into offices.

Cert without reaching de Four walls of school ,,,becos de have money and there money got Dem that post

SCHOOL IS SCAM

why won't the political science graduate be the ones there?

thedondada:
This man you dey vex oh.

School is what you make of it. Not the grade. You are viewing school as the copy and paste format as I said ala cram and pour, graduate and get a JOB.

That's the problem with the education pattern here it trains you to get a JOB not how to create jobs. Not everyone can be an entrepreneur I know but the mentality of graduate and work for the big 5 is what's killing the dreams of many young Nigerians.

Going to school is to better yourself not just to get a living.

going to school is to better yourself not just to get a living.

Which means,,is A SCAM

JohnNgene:
Well, education in the broad sense of the word is not a scam. In Nigeria, people erroneously confine the definition of education to the walls of schools whether primary, secondary or tertiary. However, education encompasses vocational training (e.g. electrical works, tailoring, hairdressing etc) and even business apprenticeship (popularly called igba-bonyi in Igboland).

In the final analysis, especially within the Nigerian context, I think tertiary education (in universities, polytechnics and colleges of education) is a scam. I think so because I've observed that in this 21st century, you can educate yourself both online and offline by reading relevant books and watching YouTube videos. If you're determined enough in your self-education, people will even assume you're a graduate when they see your handiwork and hear you speak using the appropriate terminology/jargons. Better still, companies will choose your expertise/experience over a graduate's certificate. Best of all is that in the long run you'll employ the first-class graduates to work for you. I think men like Innoson clearly exemplify what I'm trying to say here.

This my opinion doesn't apply to professional courses like medicine and engineering o! Lol.

Nice write up!!!

Okkk,,I get you bro

kimbraa:
What's the ratio of well-doing people who could read and write without a degree to those who do?. It's an insignificant fraction. Not being able to speak good English doesn't make anyone unrefined. There's difference between being educated and speaking wrong English 'cause last I checked, Koreans don't speak English and they're considered to be the smartest in the world. English isn't our first language so that's understandable but the question is, what kind of a graduate in an English speaking country can't speak good English?. Having said that, certificates comes in handy at moments people least expect it, if tomorrow a good opportunity presents itself to be gainfully employed with a good pay, what would you do?. You see why I think your dropping out of school may not be the best decision or you should endeavour to go back later. On a second thought, who am I to tell you that?.

If you can tell me the opportunities I will be glad,,,Even 80% of Politicians ain't educated,,Mind you,,,You can still go back to school to take cert after balling your MULA

smulti:
hmmm... Can I say you are referring to somebody like me who did not have the opportunity to see the four walls of higher institution

though, by the grace of God, with my business enterprise I was able to train four of my younger siblings in the universities, without being boastful I'm currently living in my own house, also own a small car to convey me from point A to point B


this is to say if I'm to come across you and liked to marry you I will have to present university degree certificate

thanks

You are even doing beta than so educated ones self

I didn't say education,,,I said School

All those cry nah form,,my elder 6ta no cry self

thedondada:
Guy let me leave it at this.

It's a matter of choice. If you want to go to school go don't let anyone convince you otherwise. If you don't want to go to school don't go and don't let anyone convince you otherwise.

Don't need anyone to prove to you if school is a scam or not. You should be able to decipher that for yourself. If you cannot then there's no need to go to school.

Kkk

kimbraa:
I can't marry an uneducated man even if he earns millions 'cause education refines people.

Hmmm,,,did u just said so??Well...goodluck to that

Na joke i dey too. how is life bro. how d xmas go b?

Lol,,I no bro,,na y I say no offence,,cool bro

Hapi Xmas in advance

school is been over hyped in Nigeria! our craft sector needs proper attention and involvement

Real talk!!!

Indeed,,Nothing like craft sector self

smulti:
Every thing boils down to bad leadership and corruption in the country over the past years


Government create enable environment for businesses that absorbs the labour force to thrive, but in Nigeria reverse is the case

check out the millions of bread winners that lost their jobs in this present administration alone


starting your own business comes with a hug cost in an environment with no constant power supply
.

Like the fact of losing your job,,,There's a age one will reach and lost his job,,his life will just be doomed

kimbraa:
Those ones are called functional illiterates 'cause they're educated to an extent. Inorder to answer your question, if education is a scam 'cause some educated people aren't gainfully employed, try illiteracy.

All this try illiteracy of a thing,,,Now...lemme ask you

Would u marry a graduate earning 45k as salary or non educated business man that gains huge gain of turns in business (500k-1mil)per month
