Has Education Become A Weakness To Nigerian Graduates? by 2prexios(op): 10:05am On Nov 08, 2014
Thats the thinking, Mom&Pop thinking when as a graduate you don't seems to be able to fend for yourself yet. Share your experience as a bullied, jobless graduate or an unemployable youth that never give up: and how about street smart versus school smart? Times were when pop start pointing to your siblings or that guy at blocks away as smart guy and you: clueless and headstrong forever.

Seun and other super mods! Una anti spam bot no go ban this kind dumb post abi?

@op, your parents should have given you the money they used to send you to school to start a business for you instead. They shouldn't complain.

Just keep trying. Never give up. If you can't get a job, create one.

That's exactly what I am saying, thinking response without getting issues with the problem, I create this problem in hope of diverse opinion and not because I have angry parents. Pls forget about my parents. Let's tackle issues and solve problems and stop blaming the parents and the past. The problem is in our hands.

Its hard to believe that you're a graduate. Your composition of sentences is even too shameful for a 3 year old. I'd advice you hustle hard and raise enough money to repay your parents for all your school fees before its considered a waste.

If you really want to know what street smart is all about, stop collecting pocket money from your parents and venture into the streets to find out for yourself.

Our salvation as a people will come from intelligent synagy of handiwork and collegial certifications, thats what I was told.We cannot run away from needs begging to be met on daily basis in form of services or improvement on some, which may require manual efforts or machineries, nor can we have a country with hordes f unskilled or semi skilled labour.

In the past, several individuals has transverse the human society, coming frm nowhere with minimal educations, but who left behind an indelible footprint on the sand of time. A hordes of them make our present civilization possible in their own respect. A name quickly comes to mind. I dont really know the numbers of patent the man alone has to his name: more than two thousand inventions.

He was not trained in a college, but he was trained on the street, on the job. He was not jinxed by certification or prediction of his teacher that harsh and cruel fate await him in the futre to come as a hearig impaired pupil. Thanks to his mum anyway. Well that was then, but Hstory often repeat itself from time to time, and I pray it will do likewise with you for good.

Yes those men made names for themselves, but there were great hurdles for all attainment, maybe to attain the height or to maintain the momentum. To attain the height on the other hand require fresight and faight that is not easily broken. There are many inventions hat is still unavailable to this present age, it has not come to foreknowledge of man.

just this last century, at the beginning of it, Eistein postulated his relativity theory, and on the mass energy equivalence, (e = mc^2) the world has a formula that is the forerunner of the atomic age. Sequentially, "in 1911, Ernest Rutherford proposed a model of the atom in which a very small, dense and positively charged nucleus of protons (the neutron had not yet been discovered) was surrounded by orbiting, negatively charged electrons (the Rutherford model).

"Niels Bohr improved upon this in 1913 by reconciling the quantum behavior of electrons (the Bohr model). Work by Henri Becquerel, Marie Curie, Pierre Curie, and Rutherford further elaborated that the nucleus, though tightly bound, could undergo different forms of radioactive decay, and thereby transmute into other elements. (For example, by alpha decay: the emission of an alpha particle—two protons and two neutrons bound together into a particle identical to a helium nucleus.)" -wiki.

From this is the humble beginning of the Atomic age, and the birth of all it has to offer in atomic fission. What am I saying? Even chemistry itself began from Alchemy, and as a result of continual renewal of its place and essence in human society, it has done us good as much as evil as it is with all affairs of man.

The purpose of this thread is not surreal: education or not, some wondrous discovery are waiting to come to the knowledge of light. It would be so great if this discovery are not sweep under the carpet by the need of its possessors to get the next good job as a graduate so as not to rut in poverty.

As a country, we still need our own Estein, we need our home grown Galileo, we need a Thomas Edisons that would give us constant light and rural electrification. we need men like Socrates and Plato among our youths to unlock new secrets to the world. But that can't be possible with graduates that have to keep looking for what to eat and other transient needs.

Thank you.
