Education is good, but skills are the best.

because you are one of the luckiest person, I had National Diploma, Higher National Diploma and BSC, only National Diploma is still the result putting food on the table.

University is not scam when you are intentional about your pathway.

The tens of millions of naira I have spent on tertiary education, has paid back in folds and access to more comfortable life.

True, these stories show grit and resilience, but we should also [url]fortifyeducationfoundation.org[/url]

That's where our parents misleaded us somehow by allowing us to face education only without enterprenuship but after Nysc many learnt it hardway as a beginner in life again 😢

Who school help wisdom is far better than education, money is far better than certificate just as a reasonable average wife is better than a beautiful woman without brain




Give me billions and eat your literacy
The only thing do love here is reasonable average wife is better than beautiful endowned empty brain woman 😂😆

We should try to teach our children how to balance education and enterprenuship 📌

Education is good. I didn't think I would be more exposed if my Dad didn't send me to one of the best school in Okota then..
I look at my life, I'm glad I'm not one of those shouting "I receive it in jesus name" every Sunday disturbing the peace of the community.
Let me guess Apata or Gideon. Which other school at okota?

List the rich men who have degrees also, let's check something
It is not bad to be a rich man with degree, but the people that have made billions didn't really finish University. I'll tell you just a bit.
In school, you are taught a certain way and everyone are given the same exam, but in the streets everyone has their own way of thinking and has their own exams which only they will then mark the script.

In school, there is some sort of peace of mind that everything will take care of itself/workout. That after you will go get a job and then do well, then you'll keep getting promotion on your place of work till you believe you have enough money to bet on yourself.
But someone without the degree, sees himself a bit like failure, has suicidal thoughts, and many demons the person fights till the overcome and they decide that whatever they get into, the give their possible best even of it kills them, they want to make it big in order to use is to cover the part which they didn't achieve University degree.

These are some of the things that makes them success stories

AmazingGenius:
Nigeria’s formal education system follows a 9-3-4 structure (Basic, Secondary, Tertiary), with primary education being mandatory and free with the public schools under the Universal Basic Education (UBE) program
When did it become 9-3-4 structure? I think it was conceived as, and has always been 6-3-3-4 with the numbers representing distinct stages.

Basic is 6, standing for primary schools. 3-3 are done in secondary schools (Junior/Senior).
