Jobs/Vacancies / Top 9 Jobs That Will Soon Be Extinct In Nigeria by Skelemba2: 5:20pm On Dec 15, 2014 |
The world around us is constantly changing. New patterns emerge and replace older ones which are rendered obsolete. Let’s have a look at some of Nigerian professions that are about to become extinct. 1. Postman: Just a while ago, post offices used to be overcrowded. Today, more and more people prefer to use social media and e-mail services to send their messages and communicate. 2. Cashier: Just a handful of electronic terminals can replace most human-operated services in, for instance, banks. Only the need of human interaction and constant explanation are holding us back.The Nigerian3. Engineering: government now prefers to grant engineering contracts to foreigners. Most of them are from Korea or China. Those Nigerians who studied engineering might soon find it difficult to find a job. 4. Paper newspapers: Less and less people buy printed newspapers now. For the most part, theses people are elderly persons who are not internet- literate, while the youths prefer to surf the web. 5. Watch repairing: A lot of people have stopped using wristwatches. Instead, they prefer to check the time on their mobile phones. Thus, the business of watch repair gradually becomes unpopular. 6. Call centers: Many Nigerians today have at least one mobile phone, and some network providers offer cheaper services. There is no need to employ services of a call center to make a call.The situation is 7. Cyber café: similar to the one with call canters. More and more Nigerians own PCs, laptops, and printers – why paying extra money? 8. Okada riders: Riding motorcycles is forbidden in Lagos, with many states considering the possibility to do the same. 9. Farmers: Nigerian youths don’t want to become farmers, preferring white-collar jobs now. Soon, we will have to employ labourers from Niger, Togo, and Mozambique to work for us in our farms. http://www.newsmen.ml/forum2_theme_111659546.xhtml?tema=163&hash=92ad2a30eb61b4940c0e9092291f06 |
