*When you see a jobless man's wife giving birth to triplets yet A TYCOON'S WIFE has prayed to have a child for years, *FEAR GOD.*

when a degree holder resorts to guarding the gate of a man who never graduated from high school, don't disrespect education, *JUST VALUE HUMILITY.*

When an ordinary looking lady marries a man that has it all together yet an epitomy of beauty and class has prayed her voice out for a husband with no much success, *KNOW IT'S NOT BY LOOK BUT GRACE.*

AND

*IF YOU SEE A MAN THAT ONCE*
*CHANGED CARS LIKE CLOTHES ARGUING OVER THE REPAIR OF HIS ONLY BICYCLE,*
*Approach life with a sense of godly awe!!!*

When you hear that Michael Jackson had more than a dozen senior doctors for himself yet he died prematurely, *YOU WILL KNOW WHO OWNS YOUR BREATH.*

When it said in news that a billionaire's only child is *ANAEMIC* and the only compatible blood is that of a homeless street boy who eats leftover food dumped by the road side, *KILL YOUR HAUGHTINESS BEFORE IT KILLS YOU*

If after all the medical sophistications and technological advancement, *COVID-19* still parades in America and other Western provinces, yet Africans with their "second hand" medical equipment, have very limited cases, *I REPEAT, FEAR GOD.����*

True, all my friends are eager to go back for masters degree while they are not yet financially stable, I told I would not do that
Honestly, it hardly works that way. You'll spend so much energy and fund on those higher degrees only to remain unemployed after graduation.

In saner climes, this man would have been gainfully employed.
You will never see that Udom hypeman called Illaumoh aka hunchogee in this kind of thread.
If it is to hype politicians looting Akwa Ibom treasury, you will see him.
Let him try getting a job in his home state Akwaibom as a lecturer. That is where he can make impact and contribute to knowledge.

A PhD holder identified as Udoh Nse James is currently working as a labourer due to his inability to get a befitting job for someone with his qualifications.

His story was shared on LinkedIn by Engr Chinedu Eche who solicited for help for the man with a PhD in Econometrics, Masters and Bachelors degree in Accounting.

Eche revealed that he came across James at site where he was helping his team with the fabrication of Coastic Soda storage tank for Dangote Refinery.

He shared a photo of the PhD holder, and noted that he should be in an institute of learning or Research.

The Engr wrote;

Get that degree, throw it away in a drawer and hit the streets, learn a skill

You really think Dangote sit down and hire laborers individually ? Sight , this is why nairaland has lost a lot of value these days.

I no just believe at all. What is the essence of the PhD. Is it not to become a don in one of the higher institutions either public or private (that is so plenty now adays)
It could be (which I'm very sure of ) the man himself does not search for a corporate or lecturing job and he's so satisfied working as a labourer in Dangote company.
Also, probably he is on a wages that is more than any other offer from other organization..

I am sure some will almost bite my head off if I say, first class degree holders are bulk counters in banks.
Nothing is guaranteed in Nigeria with your degree.

The fact however is, there is more that we do not know concerning this guy.

One thing I know is, with a bit of aggression, he will get a job that suits his profile. For example, all this polythecnics being converted to UNIs, let him go there with cry, wisdom, prayers et al seeking to see the people that matters.

Blind Bartemeus showed a bit of madness before he could get attention. Same with the woman with the issue of blood. Examples even yapa closer to him apart from the bible..

His crime was hailing from the South of Nigeria. I have never seen one Hausa-Fulani PhD holder doing this kind of job. The oligarchs would have created a post for him in Northern Nigerian Army
Northern Nigerian Petroleum Corporation
Northern Custom Services
Northern Police Force
Northern Nigerian Communication commission
Northern ports authority
Woe to the destroyers from Futajalon.
Northern daura state service too.

I think our society needs to begin to see Education as investment and divorce the idea of entitlement when one has a degree. Yes, i agree in developed countries he may not be working as a labourer but that because there is a demand fir his skillset. I graduates with a masters degree in Petroleum Engineering in the US but ended us as a dish washer. To integrate into the corporate career world , i had to pick a skill in demand and dropped my dream of being a petroleum engineer.
Education is an investment and like all investments, it may turn out to either a loss or gain. This is capitalism
