No job in abroad is a waste. I heard they pay per hour,atleast I know a man that used cleaning job to build a mansion here in 9ja. Washing dead body over there is better than a graduate collecting 10k here in 9ja. 9 Likes |

This is ridiculous man.. It's never this terrible bruh... How about Driver Factory worker Care giver Working at eateries Nanny House keeper You think you just resume at a morgue by the corner of the street without a certificate or a training of some sort? Most of the positions you listed here need some sort of training or a certificate. You don't just go and mummify someone's body, you'll. Get sued for this.. Some of the morgue workers have Masters in forensic studies, and are happy with their career. So Stop fvckin lying sir F.Y.I Tinubu aka Jagaban was a driver and a security guard when he got his scholarship abroad, and was using it to support his schooling... 13 Likes 1 Share |

wristbangle: I have never known of a Nigerian or any foreigner working in a mortuary in all my years in the UK. Working in mortuary is actually a highly paid job and the English undertakers tend not to allow foreigners into those jobs. It is usually a family affair eg Fisher & sons undertakers since 1886 - and usually only family members will work there. I have been to at least 10-15 funerals and never seen anyone but English natives bring in and take out the corpse. 14 Likes |

"Graduates..." For what that is worth it abroad...knowing the Nigerian quality of education...just nothing much. Some will succeed and others wont. Individual brains, commitment and entrepreneurship are not expressed in useless certificates... You just have it or you don't. Besides, one needs a lot of good luck in life too, meet the right people and profit of the right place, time and circumstances. #graduating is nothing exceptional, its like eating breakfast in the morning, many on this planet do 3 Likes 1 Share |

This is hilarious. I have been in America for a while now and i can authoritatively tell you that nobody washes dead bodies here. Haba Nigerians can lie o. People work as cleaners, factory workers, Security and housemaid, thats true but ask yourself do these people have the proper documentation, What level of education do they have. This has been hammered on peoples head over and over again, if you like have 100 phd from Nigeria, come to America in an illegal capacity, you wont even get a job washing plates. Nobody cares about your qualification here if you have nothing to back it up. Trust me most people who even have papers and cant get a good job but they end up doing thos jobs you listed make more than what a bank manager makes in Nigeria and its the same people that you in Nigeria will beg and say bros send me money. Mind you you claim they wash shit but they still send you dollars. Does the dollars smell of shit? 21 Likes 1 Share |

Can you prove number two with examples? I am not sure you know what it takes to become a Professor in Nigeria. No Professor will bring himself low except he is a person of little worth. Some of those stories you hear are made up. 6 Likes |

Annoying and demoralising...I totally agree. I left in 2006 with less than 1000 pounds and a warning not to come back without a Masters degree. I worked as a cleaner and a security guard. Did I enjoy it? No! I still did it and in 2009, I resigned and enrolled full-time for my masters and did the whole year without working from my savings and even had enough to travel to Tanzania to carry out my thesis. Today, I'm back in Nigeria with a good job but I still remember my experience from years back. I know a guy who had 3 Masters degree and was still working as a security guard and had enrolled for a 4th one just so he could have a visa to stay back. If you've got a plan and you need to actualize it...then the type of job you do doesn't matter. The key thing is not to get carried away and stay back in the dead end jobs. 18 Likes 5 Shares |

Quite uninformed and senseless post. I guess the poster is a toddler, or better still, a secondary school leaver with no exposure to research. A bit of research will tell you about the survival of the fittest. These are lies they told to the credulous in Nigeria. When you say abroad, you should be able to expatiate. Cyprus, Dubai, UK, Germany, Finland, Morocco, Lesotho, South Africa, US et al are all abroad. You ignorantly painted all these jobs as crimes (though 4 and 7 are), but there should be dignity in whatever jobs you do in as much as you are not a criminal. What's the point of being a jobless graduate in Nigeria when you can eke a living somewhere else? As if as the insult is not enough, the people doing these jobs will send money back to Nigeria to help their siblings o, including the poster. 13 Likes 1 Share |

Very stupid topic. Nigerians always carrying certificate for head.What is wrong with cleaner and security guard? Is that how you look down on people? Cleaners and security can afford to take care of thier family abroad. How many people in Nigeria doing office job can do that? 14 Likes |

Here you are trying to badmouth the hustles of honest workers. Save for prostitution & drug dealing, there's nothing wrong with the rest on the list, especially when it's the last resort. Would you rather prefer they live a life of crime?. Besides, aren't some graduates in Nigeria doing more demeaning jobs?. For your info, I know a guy who drove a taxi cab in the US for 3 years. He now has a house in Ogudu G.R.A, so keep yelping what you don't know, instead of jolting to reality & start hustling. This is a huge pile of thrash. You deserve a slap in fact. 11 Likes 1 Share |

HungerBAD: Don't we have the same jobs here? Why can't they do it? What's the need of becoming a graduate if you want to use it for a cleaner or an undertaker...? It's not as if they are being paid in millions, the cost of living is also high there, some of them have little or nothing to show after spending a lot years there...

Griffon: Is it not same Nigeria where employers treats their employees like offals and piece of trash. Where an employer can lay you off your job without any course to do so. Where staff go months without being paid and with no explanation from their bosses even as there are virtually no labour laws to protect the working class. I can go on and on but there's no pride and benefits of working in Naija as compared abroad. So, nothing truly annoying about anyone doing such jobs like you said. 8 Likes 2 Shares |
