The government is the problem not Mr Peller. The earlier graduates understand there's no job waiting for you, the better. I found myself after 10yrs of waiting for federal jobs. Dreams are intentionally killed in this country. I'm 35yrs now to the glory of God. I just found my path in life, use your head if you are seeing this 🙌

Is it not better you get mocked and smile to the bank for holding camera?
Than dressing cooperate to collect ₦150k at the end of the month lol 😂

When Peller offered ₦500,000 for a cameraman role and instructed graduates, including master's degree holders to line up, critics mocked him. But Robert Kiyosaki warned about this in “Why A Students Work for C Students, and B Students Work for the Government.” The book explains why book-smart individuals often end up working for street-smart risk-takers.

The lesson? Degrees don't guarantee opportunity, value creation does.

Peller, by Kiyosaki’s standards, is offering what many “A and B students” are still chasing: a job. And a well-paying one. Instead of criticizing him, ask: Why are master’s degree holders applying for a cameraman job? That question says more about the system and misplaced priorities than about Peller.

It also brings us to the formula:

Ego ÷ Ability > 1 = Failure
Ego ÷ Ability < 1 = Success

If your ego says “I’m too educated for this,” but your ability or circumstances, says otherwise, you're setting yourself up to fail. The harsh truth? Humility plus skill pays. Pride without value doesn’t.

Peller didn’t expose them. The system did. He just put a price tag on it.

He didn’t employ them did he, he used their brains for his own skit…..says a lot about the brains of graduates of our universities. Made money of you by subjecting you to ridicule and cashing out with views yet he still didn’t employ you.

Again your post shows what is wrong with our education system. Garbage in garbage out!

It is a testament to what even non-graduates feel about low quality products of Nigerian universities that a boy who didn’t go to university stated a masters degree (not bachelor’s masters) as a requirement for a cameraman position and yet you all turned up. It means he has had enough encounters with the typical Nigerian university degree holder and believes they are unintelligent and needs to screen them with an additional masters degree requirement, again all for a camera man position. A position that has nothing to do with whatever you read in University.

In today's Nigeria, 50k monthly will only subject you to a life of penury.

KaLuCh:
Guy, You're not really making a point as valid as you believe. The flaws in your argument are as follows;

1. He's not educated enough to employ an MSc holder. Like yo! Wtf! Who are the largest employers of labour abeg? Scholars? Nope.

2. The fact that graduates responded to his job posting reflects poorly on our education system. And your premise is that MSc is too high for the job of cameraman. Again, clueless. Go check for the range of degrees available with photography and learn.

3. That he wanted an MSc holder as an employee means he doesn't think that an undergrad is intelligent enough for his purposes. Holy anger dey catch me on your behalf.

You wrote all these with the self-righteousness of a Pope. But you're just really betraying how uniformed you are even though you have a good command of English language.

Hhh4444:
what is your motivation of applying for a job? Is it not to earn salary that is worth it? Is a Camera man job with salary of 500k for msc holder not worth it?answer these questions sincerely and you will stop blaming peller.

Sermwell:
So what's your point? People should not go to school?

casualobserver:
Why bother going to university when you could have spent 6 months of your life learning the skills of a camera man?

Hhh4444:
what are you even saying? So you would rather sit in an ac office and carrying files with 150k salary than become a camera man that earns 500k. What is the color of your problem?

casualobserver:
You cause me, I know graduates that earn 1.5m starting salary in Nigeria. They didn’t go to your universities. You learn garbage, you. Earn garbage! Educations costs money, you say no! No problem, what you see, you see!

Personally I have no sympathy for you people because it is people like you that protest fee increases that cause others who understand the value of good education to send their children abroad and the associated risks and stress and upheaval that come with that. I went to a top tier university in Nigeria for my 1st degree, I would like to send my children to the same university but I can’t because of hediots like you!

I feel no sympathy for the Nigerian with a masters degree applying g for a cameraman job. Because when the government tried to raise fees so that all of us rich and poor can get a good education here at home you protested! Again what you see you see!

Na one of the reasons why this country no go fit better be this. if to say na country wey governent serious, that stupid stunt would have mark the beginning of the ended of his career.
Them no born any so called celebrity to try that kind of nonsense stunt in China, them never even born you well. The other day one idiot was coming out to mock our civil servants in the name of selling cars, "This one is not for civil servants". I no really blame them, no be their fault at all.

Hhh4444:
Do not give me that crap of increasing tuition fees. Are you aware that a lot of the top people in Nigeria today enjoyed free education during their time?They enjoyed free meals and other benefits while they were studying. Today the story is different and all you you can come up with is paying higher for education.You are part of the problems we have in this country.

Racheal45:
One of the biggest mockery to education

Chibuezem:
The fault lies with the government which over the years have done nothing to create new jobs. The people have allowed this to happen by not Uniting to end evil administration because a part of them support the said government due to tribalism, nepotism. Imagine telling a doctor or lawyer to learn how to make liquid soap during Nysc to survive after spending so many years in school 😂😂😂😂 all in the name of SAED helinues what's your say on this?

gerizzim:
the young chap is only trying to create a buzz online. He wants to give the online space something to talk about . It is more of a content.

if and if truly he needs or employs a msc graduate for dt job, he won't be needing his certificate, his aim is to leave a story for us to keep arguing dt peller employed a master degree holder as a photographer which wil spiral into further arguments to rubbish education.

If he had employed the regular street cameraman , it wud be seen as normal and it won't trend online.
Moreover, those photographers he has been changing all dis while before now dt are nt probably msc holders, did it go viral as this one?

Do you guys even know how.much diz msc cameraman gist has generated for him tru streaming to follow up the story online.

Moreover, i dnt tink this gist is really in the certificate because you cn have a master's degree holder dt is not sound same way as a bsc holder dt is half baked.

He's intent is more of I want to say something online to trend and go viral not dt he actually seeks proficiency in the job role per say.

Oga no problem, go and test your degree in the job market. Those who went to quality universities get jobs many of them even before they graduate.

People say there are no jobs, you will be shocked at the number of vacancies that go infilled such that many companies employ foreign remote workers or employ expatriates. There are no jobs for you because your degrees are worthless. My sister has a law firm, she told me they employ foreigners for some of their legal work because Nigerian graduate lawyers have poor English and you cannot trust the results of the work without going through it yourself defeating the idea of employing them. They are not the only ones, while you are there with your Nigerian quack degrees looking for work, a lot of work is outsourced to countries like Ghana, even Ukraine because employers who insists on quality can’t trust the average Nigerian graduate. It actually costs them more than paying a graduate say N1.5m a year but they would rather do that because the hm grown graduates are sloppy or poor educated.

That is 5e reason peppers asked for a masters degreee, not because you need a masters degree or a bachelors to operate a camera.

I,m done. Quote me again and I block you

In life, if your pride is greater than your ability or usefulness, you're already shooting yourself in the foot.

Nackzy:
He has every right to request for a camera man that's a graduate, that's his brand we're talking about he doesn't want to jeopardise it, it's more or less an illiterate looking for an intelligent person to help him out

Dzzzz:
But what do you expect someone with a MA in photography to do when he has no job and offer for 500k is at play,do you expect him to reject it?..Can you even pay a camera man at your wedding 400k?..Nat Geo and many others recognize photography but no in Nigeria..
