Parents Pls Stop Sending Kids To Uni If You Are Broke by Supreme145(m): 4:41pm On May 21, 2021 |
Instead of sending your children to the university without a good financial plan I think its better for them to learn a well paying skill that might not even last the duration of the university education. Students especially those from humble backgrounds are suffering in school, even garri now is expensive, guys are surviving on just water and kuli kuli to write exams. My friend resumed school just two days to exams because of hustle, I resumed a week to exams(finals). Imagine trying to cover a semester's work within a week, you end up learning nothing tangible and manage to come out with maybe 2.2 or third class. Only the gifted students from humble backgrounds make 1st class in the midst of want and lack. The situation of the girls is a different case study, every friday all manner of vehicles ranging from government SUVs to military trucks are all seen around the hostels picking ladies up. Their case is even a little better because they have something to trade for those that want to follow that path. Lastly please check on your kids in school, even if there's no money please encourage and reassure them, I couldn't complete my fees and asked my dad to help me out, wetin that man tell me ehhn, I wanted to regret going to school but it's too late for regrets. 12 Likes 2 Shares |

Don't give birth to children you can't comfortably take care of, give options in life, and leave a good inheritance for. People who give birth in poor, abject conditions have no conscience. 13 Likes 3 Shares |

Martinez39s: This is the best comment. Give birth to the number of kids you can take care of comfortably so you can also live a comfortable life. That way, you won't make your children your retirement plan. Teach your children contentment. It pays a lot. Instil on them good morals. I observe that some girls that do runs in school aren't from poor backgrounds. I knew of two whose parents lived in their personal homes in Garki and Wuse but these girls still dey do runs. 20 Likes 5 Shares |

Martinez39s: That's not the main issue my brother.... even the whites that give birth to 2 or 3 all struggle... When a nation has system that is working, the citizens rejoice.... In some parts of the world, students apply for grant... Govt gives grant with hope that they will pay back immediately after graduation and starts working without defaulting.., when they starts working, they get payment plan on how to pay back so that others too will be given a chance to study as well... Of cause they will not default because govt has a way of tracking all these... database were interlinked... and there's no way u will start working without them knowing...because your tax file will be submitted..... But is that system gonna be workable in Nigeria? when there are no authentic home address system....... when there's no data base that link to different private organization, ministries and internal affairs office... when someone will give an address to the govt that he/she resides in in sokoto state with some fake street.... but has never been to sokoto before... It will take a long time to arrive at the stage when govt must intervenes but until then... 1 Like |

We thank God for life. 2015/2017 I was in school with my younger brother being sponsor by my mum only, How we survive only God knows. I make sure during holidays our school fees are completed by any means before resumption. I don't buy hand out, I borrowed from people and write out points, so many stories. Food nko, different delicacies of orishirishi....lol, yet I graduated with a good GP and was given a prize... No be say we know the book, but we can't afford to fail 4 Likes |

You can't tell a struggling parent not to send their child to the university why because they blv tomorrow will be better and that child will eventually finish school. It's the final lap, why shld they not put in their best?? As for the female students pimping themselves, it's not poverty but long throat greed. They can go into small scale business, like wears and edibles and make money off the ones following big men, etc. That is no excuse to be stupid pls. I knew someone whose father died in his 2nd year or so, not only did he see himself tru school, he also did masters from money he got from writing projects for other lazy students. There will always be a way. 1 Like |

It's really sad. There should be a way of communities gathering together to give students reduced loans or part scholarship. Don't blame the parents, they can only do the best with the resources they have. It is so sad that Nigeria cannot make this affordable for students, reduce fees and at least give subsidized meals... |

When I scream that y'all should bore children you can cater for, some unam ikots say I'm too harsh and whatnot. Well, it has happened but you should learn a lesson by delaying childbearing or even marriage all together. Nothing is wrong if you as a man get married by 40. This is to prevent your children complaining as you're doing. Meanwhile, regarding skills, please be very specific by high paying not these mumbo-jumbo skills of perfume oils, hair styling, fashion nonsense, baking et al I read on social media daily. Preferably, learn a digital skill (so you can earn in dollars instead of ever worthless naira), hone it very well and improve your finances. Afterwards, if you wish to pursue academic studies as an undergraduate, go for courses that don't take long to complete - max four years. Unless medicine or nursing, there's no point for someone from a poor home to study courses which take five years to complete. Remember, you have ASUU and internal issues - see Unical. Rather than study chemical engineering, study chemistry and leave the system. Rather than civil engineering, study mathematics or physics, write the GRE and get out! I'm elated y'all are beginning to experience Nigeria for what it's, hopefully you don't procreate for your offsprings to experience same. Supreme145: Cretinous fvcktards is how I describe those men. Their mates in South Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Taiwan, China et al., created economic opportunities so their youths earn well and live a good life. What do African oldies do? Destroy the system, create servitude and privation. Then boom! Begin to prey on their young girls meanwhile her mates in Japan, China or Singapore get employment opportunities annually as the economy grows Worse still, the so-called intellectuals (actually intellecTWATS) write mumbo-jumbo articles supporting these horrible human beings called Nigerian politicians.
