All graduate studies abroad are useless if they are not STEM or Health.

Why would someone engage in graduate studies in other fields other than mentioned above? Imagine graduate studies in Philosophy or Religion or even Law.


Take law for instance, I know many lecturers of law that studied in Canada, USA and the UK. None is sound in Nigeria here. This is because you are most likely studying their laws and not Nigerian Laws.



No single successful lawyer here will owe it to studies abroad.

I was as ignorant as you. I’m over it now.

People study various courses for different reasons. Respect that and move on.

What kind of thought process informed this childish post?

How intelligent are you to compare people’s passion and career choices to stealing

You honestly need to get over yourself, because the truth is there are probably thousands of people that studied what you termed rubbish courses that will comfortably feed you and your family.

Schooling abroad will streamline your thought process into a problem solving one and not the exam passing type you see in Nigeria.More than 50% of the best lawyers we have produced all schooled abroad starting from Rotimi Williams(SAN) of blessed memory to Wale Babalakin(SAN)Afe Babalola(SAN), Prof.Ilochi Okafor(SAN) former VC UNIZIK ,Onyechi Ikpeazu (SAN) etc

Lol, do you know the type of competition that exists among the so-called STEM majors? The most important thing is to excel at what you study, and this is why choosing your passion is the wisest decision. You are better off graduating with a first class in philosophy than with a third class in computer science.

Several reasons bro

Ask our leaders why they can't risk the lives of their children in Nigerian schools.

ASUU strike up and down (we are currently in one)

The Inspector General of police who studied in Nigeria, who can only speak "transmission and transmission",

The NSCDC director who was saying "our oga at the top".

several millions of Nigerian youths are still unemployed (because they are not connected or tribalism).

Most don't want to roam the street after graduation. Trust me, Nigerian youths are strivers.

By the way, country like Canada welcoming to Nigerian students no matter their course of study.
After graduation, you have easy access to PR. This comes with free standard medical service, free education for unborn kids, etc.

Hence, the question should be why are Nigerians still studying in Nigeria.

Simple most people going abroad for msc are using it as escape root to poverty in Nigeria, most of them can settle for any course provided they will be given admission easily, and subsequently visa. Nigeria is not working and seriously need to be fixed, how can a country uptil now lecturers still go on strike and stay months before they resume back, how can we still not having constant electricity in this century, when I traveled outside Nigeria I saw the difference, the difference is so clear l, I remember when I lost my wallet and the next day I received I call from someone that pick it, just imagine if it were to be in Nigeria. We all should work collectively to make Nigeria better, yes the Government has failed, but I believe for Nigeria to be better I think is individual that will make it better, just imagine if the forthcoming election everybody decide not to collect bribe from those politician and vote right, they will look so stupid because no one cares about their money. The day most of you in Nigeria will leave Nigeria u will shed tears, let me not talk about politicians but citizens most believe in crime, fast money, just listen to the lyrics of olamide new song. What a country!!
God help us.

Op I understand your point and our sentiments are mutual about this issue. You see, it is not easy to go overseas considering immigration issues and the huge finance needed. So if someone finds finds him/her self studying abroad thats the greatest opportunity for you to change the course of your life. Take for example before I came here I wanted to do research on sensor networks but deep down I wasnt convinced it would be in demand because not only has it been over researched but it has no bearing on the common man. So I chose post quantum security which is new and difficult but I knew it would be in demand and it was the future. Therefore thanks for raising this issue up and hope that our brother and sisters seeking to study here would try as much as possible to challenging and hard stuff which would solve global problems.
