I have had many experience interacting with people who need work They like to Show their CV and certification which at the end they cant even follow simple instructions right I wonder how many of them get their qualification? This nation has a very long way to go no wonder we will even prefer to hire white man to come do work here because of experience. You people should go and change 45 Likes 1 Share |

marienl: I have trained close to 500 in the past five years. Also majorly here too. I do not charge. I have taken some in to leave with me all end up disappointing to even stealing my items. Only very few have turned up to the moment that my work showed. Those ones have moved on to setup their own businesses. But the percentage is small. Very very small. Majority just want the results and nothing else they don't want to go through the process of getting the results 35 Likes |

We put more effort in academic papers, and less effort in practical skills... That's why it's easy for us to rush and finish secondary school, university, masters and PhD .. and yet end up not gainfully employed for long .. but funny enough, we can't spare like 2 or 3 years learning a particular skills.... And it's easier to cheat and bribe your way just to get certificate than defend a particular skill.. Many Nigerians are UNSKILLED... If "Developed" countries sees the needs for and are looking for skilled immigrants, then Nigeria that is "Developing" are under valuing skills, then we still have a long way to go 24 Likes |

TimT: You took it out of my mouth many of them cant even do simple task They cant even put mind to learn practical things And yet despite we cry unemployment many people would rather sell their house to send children to school Children who will end up unemployed or getting paid peanut because they failed to maximize the advantage of their education because of little to no practical experience. 13 Likes |

TimT:There is no dignity in labour in Nigeria, and the purchasing power for your menial job in Nigeria is the worst. If you can't even wrap your head around way people are more comfortable keeping their certificate aside to do menial job in other countries than in Nigeria then you are either not honest in your reasoning or you not capable of critical reasoning. 17 Likes 5 Shares |

marienl:Their is no dignity in labour in Nigeria hence people are more comfortable doing it abroad. Nigerians not been employable is just bullshit, is that the reason for the unemployment rate in Nigeria. Can Nigeria even give the employable ones Job? Direct your blame to the right people not Nigerians that did their part and study for 4-5 years to earn a degree only for people to still consider them as lazy and not willing to take on menial job. 19 Likes 1 Share |

Op accept just anybody and is expecting good results. The cream will rise to the top. Even with bros j 12 one Judas dey you carry hundreds you no know say enough Judas to dey. There's no reading culture in Nigeria again... Everybody don like short cut. If you're employing people give detailed instructions that w seven years old will be able to perform. And add a question inside the instructions telling them to reply with the answer. If you do this you'll easily separate Barnabas from paul If they can't read and follow instructions it means they can't be patient enough to follow the ur instructions. Get standard operating procedure Sop for anything especially dealing with people. If you don't have sop anything you get is your fault. You want control you've to accept the responsibility. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Very correct, Even the percentage of unemployable graduate is on high side these days, as many students have mindset of getting the certificate only. Also school setting are not even provide environment to impact knowledge everything is to admit more students and ensure fast academic session. I think for Nigeria to grow, we need our graduate to be employable and productive 1 Like |
