So, I've been thinking about this for a longer while now, then I came across a similar discussion on a platform. Hence I feel like I should share it with you guys.

As we all know there are a whole lot of insecurities going on in Nigeria now, just that we mostly narrow it down to life insecurity alone, which I believe our present predicament is way beyond.

Amongst them are food insecurity, life insecurity, marriage insecurity, properties insecurity, job insecurity and the list goes on and on.

But my area of interest is that of a job insecurity. As we all know how scholars, most especially graduates struggles to meet the end needs as a result of an increasing unemployment index from time to time at the expense of the commoners, the less connected individuals and the likes.

However, I have seen a graduate earned as low as 7k to 10k. And they held on to the job since their are no forthcoming opportunities to subtitute with.

So, what responsibility would that ridiculous salary cater for in this present economy? Or for how long would the person keep suffering and enduring the chain of time with 7 to 10k?. These are the questions I keep asking myself.

So, without streching this write up too far, I would like to ask this:

What’s the worst salary you’ve seen a graduate earn?

Lol . I remember when I used to work in a private school after nysc. I was in one rickety bus heading to school one day when the driver decided to inflate the fare. I argued with the driver over the fare only for him to assess me from up to down and conclude I'm a mere teacher that earns a paltry #20,000. He actually said it to a passenger that sat beside him. Of a truth,I was earning #23,000 that time. But I thank God I'm moving up bit by bit now. I earn #75,000 where I teach now and if i include home lessons,I make #100,000+

How can someone who earn 10k manage to do data, eat, transport. Nigeria is bad o, very bad

Sometimes you don't know what you have in Life until you lose it.
With the level of financial exposure I have had, I can vividly say money guarantees FUN, but not entirely peace of mind. However, POVERTY doesn't guarantee such either.

In fact, POVERTY is worse!

As agric graduate you don't know what to do,if na play stop am o

I guess a time will come whereby, the decision to registering a pupil in any school will be based on the school teachers salary.

I won't want someone I entrust the future of my child to, to be earning peanuts salary.
Teaching job is unappreciated in this country

Nigeria is really hard for a lot of people I must tell you!

You all believe farming is that easy both poultry and fish farming are just time wasting, you won't make profit.
