Nice piece. I study comp sci. In one of the fed. varsity unlike me,many of my coursemates can't write a basic program, develop an app etc and we dey grad next year. So how do u expect us to fit in when the system is eroded. The idea is to keep the youths busy nothing more.

MAJORBANKZ:
stop or stopped? English is quite difficult

Rubbish,
Many successful people around the world today never attended decent secondary schools let alone universities and when they did they pick the right courses, right mentality and right plan.

Indians use lanterns and candles to study things like programming and other freeware courses: they account for the highest number of developers in the world today.

You cannot expect to study sociology and mass comm and go conquer the world.
You cannot spend most of your time on cultism and expect any commonsense attitude to emerge from your time at school.
You cannot base your learning on "work of god" and expect to be innovative.
Education is not only about study, Nigerian mentality renders education useless.

Nigeria imports intelligence (aka expatriates) not because of education but mentality!
Most Chinese people who are Ogas of Nigerian PHD holders are prisoners and low level skilled people.

Let's be objective, dont be quick to blame, it's quite unfortunate to have the kind of educational system we have in nigeria, if only the system was effective, there wouldn't be a "generalization" that Nigerian graduates are unemployable. this menace is a product of a deficit system which was solely put in place to address that, the truth is that many people don't realize on time how weak and programed to fail this our educational system is designed, they just felt well, I'm in school, I will do my best to make up with the requirements and I will be fine afterall, if we all schooled in the U.S would we be unemployable? The only thing we should rather do is encourage/create awareness instead of blame Nigerian graduates, to wake up to their reality, take it upon themselves,to go the extra mile, to make up for the deficiency in the system which they wouldn't have needed to do elsewhere.

I dnt like it when slow pokes quote me. What do you mean by the right course? Are you sane at all? So your course determine who you become in life right?
