baqina: I believe we are saying the same thing. I apologize if i misunderstood you in beginning but i see your point. Education is good to have but our prevalent situation haa made its value worthless. Nonetheless, individuals must activate their creativity and self-improve by learning trade to keep their dignity intact. Government must aid their effort and create environment to spurn consumption and commerce. I give you 100%, you are correct! 2 Likes 1 Share |

baqina: Isn't this in support of what he is saying? The person graduated in Nigeria...but did not sit down on the degree and expect to find El Dorado. He/She used it to move to a higher level and an environment where it can lead to Ei Dorado. Wenger got his.... but found another path to El Dorado which also supports the statement. |

If degrees can't get someone into El Dorado, it means our educational system (Curriculum) needs serious overhauling. Entrepreneurship and IT were there to mould the students into the labour market, if it has failed it means the government has failed 2 Likes |

Originalsly: Yeah, you are right....if you read deep into baqina's position you will get the point. Baqina is not disputing that education is not an el dorado.....but that even those who have stepped up their game and self-improved and become self-employed have realized clientele and consumer traffic is dry. Discretionary spending is low. So to buoy the economy and make more people spend, which will reward those on the side of Buhari's advise.....the government and even private sector should fund commerce. 3 Likes |

moonbender:As in. Most the cars we drive with pride here in Nigeria are seen as low class or cheap article over there. Nigeria is far behind. Anyone that uses the presence of poor people and the homeless in America to insinuat that things are hard everywhere and that America isn't much better of needs a resounding slap. In America, a homeless man CAN start from scratch and work his way up but what are the chances for a homeless begger in Nigeria? Even graduates are miserable. |

baqina: Both of u r right though. Buhari is for the most part right too. The difference between us and the west is that while we r clamouring to be millionaires, the west constantly want an environment that will be conducive for their upcoming generation. That brings us to the problem of the family, education and the government. These days parents hardly buy their kids books and novels outside the normal school books. They don't even have libraries. I read things fall apart in primary school and books about earthquakes and demons and life, still in primary school. That period really shaped my thinking abilities. These days parents think about building houses in the village and in the city. It's so disgusting. If the government has over the decades built factories, research centers, equipped schools and provided enabling environment for businesses to thrive, many people who finish school will have jobs. So how does a blockhead finish from University and wants to make it when he or she cannot even use his brain becos he or she just went thru school as a routine? Especially as regards so many girls around? Look at our hospitals. Even for nurses and doctors to get jobs is an uphill task. Now we can ask the government.... Is it rocket science to build hospitals and factories? We can also ask rich private individuals..... Is it a crime to build same, instead of filling stations and plazas and supermarkets? ask our banks why they lay of staffs every year yet their CEOs get richer. U see why it's a mentality thing? |

moonbender: Many sociologists and government officials have argued that poverty in the United States is understated, meaning that there are more households living in actual poverty than there are households below the poverty threshold. [89] A recent NPR report states that as many as 30% of Americans have trouble making ends meet and other advocates have made supporting claims that the rate of actual poverty in the US is far higher than that calculated by using the poverty threshold. [89] A study taken in 2012 estimated that roughly 38% of Americans live "paycheck to paycheck." https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poverty_in_the_United_States Do you know the meaning of actual poverty? It means absolute poverty as against relative poverty. |

MetaPhysical: That is it. Buhari is a brand and ought not to hv uttered that statement.

Jiang: My friend, you are right and we are on the same page but we must tell ourselves the truth. Hundreds of thousands of graduates universities churn out every year is too much foe the few companies to absorb especially because the country just exited recession so, we must always seek alternatives since the government has failed to live to its responsibilities. |

BluntBoy: So are you trying to justify the poverty the level in Nigeria? Are you saying Nigerians enjoy more than majority of the Americans, are you trying to say the useless government in Nigeria are right by owing workers salary for months? Are you saying people enjoy basic amenities in this rotten country? ARE YOU SAYING POOR NIGERIANS HAS HOPE OF BETTER TOMORROW? Have you eaten today? if yes, what? Are you satisfied? Can you say you haven't lamented on how things are difficult in this soak away called Nigeria? Have you travelled to other countries? If NO, then you have to.
