As a young Nigeria who is seeking for how to escape from this country to seek solace and opportunity in any country my legs can take me to without recourse to whatever I might face out there, I, like many young Nigerian youths, are striving so hard to leave the shores of this country at all cost as there is no hope for the common man without political connections. Being poor in Nigeria now is a crime as majority are just surviving every passing day with no hope to live a life worth living. Should we talk about poor healthcare, insecurity, high rates of unemployment, or increasing social vices just to survive the next day? Funny is how all that the charlatans in government had to offer is "student loan" and not employment and some mediocre are hailing this shenanigans. Only a few are asking the question of whether the government has plans for job creation to enable the repayment of the loans after their NYSC program. Some years back, as a fresh graduate with no hope of my next meal, I created this thread of the comparison between education and skill acquisition https://www.nairaland.com/3384262/which-should-given-more-priority#138524589 This was solely because education in Nigeria is based more on theories that are not implementable but honing the right skills seem to provide better job opportunities as the service provides will always be relevant in the society as solution providers. Seeing this content by @Gana, https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1ECwJ2B4rr/ on Facebook reminded me to ask these question: 1. Is the problem bedeviling the average Nigerian youths lack of jobs or lack of education? 2. Why is the FG more concerned about creation loan schemes for students through NELFUND when it cases less about the fate of the students after graduation. If those that have graduated, some with masters degree are not gainfully employed, what then is the encouragement to want to go to school in loan with no hope to pay back? 3. What happened to job schemes like YOUWIN of PDP and NPOWER of the confused APC? 4. Is this not a ploy and a plot to steal taxpayers moneys undisturbed? 5. To those fanning the embers of stupidity of those who forced themselves, where the hope of tomorrow for your children? Or do you thing your evil cronies will always be in power? 6. After taking a loan to go school, what happens after graduation when there are no plans to create jobs but to loot and waste taxpayers monies? 6. Who has bewitched us, oh foolish Nigerians? In the coming election, I'd rather we vote for who will WORK and not who will WIN by rigging. |

alfredfrddy:What ''poor healthcare'' ? What is a youth like you doing talking about ''health care''? When last did you step in a hospital to be talking about ''poor health care''? Did you go there and there was no treatment for you? You just copy and paste other peoples' rubbish into your head. |

On a scale, labour must not outweigh the opportunities that exsist. Unfortunately, there is more hands than the opportunities that exsist. What's the point of establishing so much schools instead of industries or sectors where the teeming youth can function? Well obviously it's because your lecturers only exsist on theory applications and not PRACTICAL. So how do they build ideas and pass it down to the students who can practice and expand those ideas? |

Poor education does not teach job creation. |

Kemetian:I don't think you've had a reason to go to the hospital in the last 2 months, if you did you'll not type this rubbish here. Private hospitals are overcrowded as health workers in government establishment are on strike due to poor payment and inadequate facilities while the useless politicians you back up brainlessly and their families are running abroad to seek healthcare as they don't trust the system they are overseeing. May Nigeria not happen to you. |
