My kids won't be victims of the Nigerian deceptive educational system. I will make sure that they're equipped with skills (most especially entrepreneurship skills) before graduating from the higher institutions. They need to be running their businesses before graduation

24hoursreporter:
OP you try. But do you expect me to read the entire article?

Coldie:

Not even that. During University/nysc days there are normally boys who parade themselves as big boys, wear clothes, wear sunglasses up and down even at nights, after nysc u would be surprised that plenty of those boys if u see them u would be like oboy everything dae ok

Pavillon:
Very true write up,

but for me, I dumped my girlfriend few months after nysc, I couldn't afford extra baggage.. like i just sat down and i observed everything, Me that i cannot even fend for myself, still struggling hard to even get money to attend interviews and you expect me to be show love and care. Even tho shes not a demanding girl, but she was demanding for my time and attention which was all concentrated on finding and a job... and sometimes she always wants us to hangout,
Hnagout when I've calculated that in a week i will get an interview to attend, will i use my tfare to now hangout>

I just summoned courage and did the needful.

although some other factors are attached.

But my own is, if you are mentally,emotionally and financially not capable to keep a relationship after service, just end it and focus on yourself. Life after service is not funny.I thank God for life anyway

I love #4 . Yes of course your girlfriend just have to leave you, no one can tolerate a broke nigga even you won't tolerate yourself.

Same thoughts here... Makes no sense graduating and searching frantically for employment.

Welcome to Nigeria where 90% of graduates are on instagram selling hair, bitcoin, shoes and bag. . Op is shading someone for thinking about okada, but the mini importation self is not easy when customs and customers deal with you eye go clear. People wey no go school dey also import. So let him do his okada in peace

BrainRider:
Op Thank you for this piece.
I'm an undergraduate. I always wonder when I see a graduate return home to share same roof with his parents.

I've been saying I won't return home after graduation, right from 100l. I would rather remain where I am, receiving little help they can render while I face life.
Returning to my town makes no sense to me after spending 5yrs+ outside my state.
May God help me

My degree has been under my bed for the past ten years, I have learnt to survive without using it to work. People still tell me every now and then to go for master, master my left yansh.
I took 500k loan last week from Coop, 220k from NIRSAL and hopefully another 500k from Coop next week (there was delay already). They want me to go for master and come back and still roaming the streets for jobs?
I took 1.2m loan two months ago from the Coop and 170k has been made in return already

Angelfrost:


That's exactly how it should be!!!... These are things no school will ever teach you.

Matter of fact, seems universities here are designed to actually waste the productive time of young people... Cos, I can't understand how a nation with so many raw materials, untapped resources, etc, will have able bodied individuals scrambling for remnants called salaried jobs.

Nice one OP.
I have a story to share about my the timeline of my life after nysc. I collected my discharge certificate by march this year.
If someone wants me to post how i have been living

Pls, quote me

Kanoski:
Well.
I started learning plumbing immediately b4 my 100l even though the learning process is really slow.
I also learnt how to do laundry business though I left it cus of the high level of competition in my area.
Am also thinking of learning electrical/electronic repairs cus thats what am studying in the university sef.
Whenever I go to sites to learn plumbing with my oga, n maybe the site engineer or contractor finds out that am student studying electrical engineering, the will be like wat am I doing as a plumber since plumbing is under mechanical.

Well I just believe that no knowledge is a waste, n am still interested in learning more skills.

The plan is to not depend on anyone for anything after my NYSC.

I also will like more contributions on other skills that I could into. Thanks

Well, I have a brother who was leaning terrazzo, tiling, cement works and POP before gaining admission to study Physics Electronics at a federal University. He started going to sites to work on Saturdays and Sundays, then he would return to his boss during holidays. Today, he's a boss and winning big and small contracts everywhere with his apprentices doing most of the work. Stay focus

Nigerian Higher institutions should be mandated to include Entrepreneurship skill acquisition in their courses for all students.

My post has been quoted
Let me share my timeline
I collected my certificate by march 5. I served in Ogun state. Ijoko to be precise.
The certificate collection was on Thursday, i comot reach ogbomoso the next day.

By Monday, I resume to a nursery and primary school in my area. Though, I once worked with the proprietor b4. I was given yoruba teacher for primary 4&5...as a hustler, I didn't argue.
I had to look for another sch looking for emergency teacher, i became phe teacher, part time in another sec sch in the area
Boom, on the 23rd of march, school closure. I sha go collect half salary jejely.

As a sharp guy, i started lesson for waec students in my area and pry sch pupils
500 naira per week for ss class students
30 naira per day for pry pupils
Sometimes, I have like 8k per week after settling my feeding and d teachers.

Oh, i have some savings b4 i went for nysc. I entered cooperative.. Young nigga, borrowed loan. Find a land in a new area. Cheap land tho. I started the sch building. Now I have a nursery and primary school to call my own which will resume when the new session starts.
I dey enter from house to house to canvass for pupils but d parents have nt really show interest.

People have applied for a teaching job here. I only interviewed a lady, she has nce. I told her to resume with the sch.

I sat down and think abt my life.
God is indeed wonderful

I just pray my new sch get blessed and being able to repay the loan.
