RedPanthar: You're right to an extent though(Many graduates can't write short sentences without lots of grammatical blunders) but na the ones wey come flex for school at the end of the day, he go pass exam... but imagine asking an Engineer what a Transitive Verb is or asking a graduate of Economics what H2SO4 is....o wrong naw No man is an island of Knowledge! You might be a genius is one field and at the same time be a Layman in another field...it's just the way it is. You don't expect Ben Carson to start lecturing you about Architecture or Bill Gates to teach you Biology. Lemme come down a lil bit...how will it sound if Bubu appoints a Medical doctor as CBN Governor?? Wrong right? Good! Now does that mean the Medical Doctor is a failure?? |

Flynnthekidd: And an engineer ought to know what a transitive verb is because it's a kins to how a lever uses in transmitting energy from point a to point b in engineering |

What is this one saying, as if he was not once a graduate. The fact that you graduated at the time when education was still very valuable and rewarding does not mean that you have the bragging right to speak ill of the today's graduates whose certificates have been turned to no means than Iya basira's buns rappers. It is the failure of the governments past and present which you are also part of, and years of misrule and corruption that constituted to Nigerian graduates not performing to expectation in this country. Where is the structure that you want graduates to exercise their talents in today's Nigeria? |

He is speaking facts. I don't think that he meant English alone. When I stayed in America for two years, I noticed that even the less educated were on point with pronunciations and had confidence when they spoke. As for education in Nigeria, it has gone so low that before covid, employers were complaining about unemployable graduates. The 1970 Nigerian leaders began that rot, and the late 80s to now, have perfected it. Secondary schools are now 80% failed, universities are 97% tampered results and produce very watered down graduates. When you compare the environment for most educational institutions sef, even my dogs will not want to so anything in there, after one minute. Even elementary schools are becoming undependable. Enough blame to go around, beginning with all the failed leaders since 1965; then the sorting or bullying parents; then the teachers/lecturers payment ( every month story of how them go owe them); then the people that make the school function like maintenance, boarding house cooks, security, and cleaners; etc Nigerians have shot themselves in the foot, knees, and hands; and have done so multiple times; that it is now crippled in that sector. We elected, aided and abetted saboteurs; that only know how to take national money for account padding to the detriment of the nation. Make I stop here, e dey pepper me for body. 1 Like |

Karleb: LOL. I have done selections for literally hundreds of 'Graduates', so unless you have had similar exposure, maybe you should miss me with what you are brewing. I never claimed that our politicians are an elevated breed - I spoke specifically to my own extensive experience in dealing with Nigerian graduates. My expressed views were also not about the IQ of people I worked with, but rather the very poor quality of supposed university-educated candidates that quite frankly should not have been allowed to even graduate from secondary schools. P.S: For some weird reason, I have interviewed several Guys from Yabatech that far outclassed 'university graduates' - especially those from state universities up-country (not mentioning any oo, in case you attended one). Thought to drop that for those in the Uni vs. Poly arguments. |

illicit: So much agree with you. The man is a bad graduate himself. This man cannot understand the difference between language and education. Again, this is proof that our education in Nigeria is just able to speak in English. 1 Like |

Blame it on our greedy self centred politicians, who would rather ensure the structures of our educational sectors stay dilapidated than appropriate funds to solve that menace. Baba, Blame it on you people the lecturers in these schools who would Rather choose the extrinsic over the intrinsic mode of operation. Baba, Blame it on our yearly budget appropriations that allocates crumbs to the educational sector at the fulfillment of frivolities like wardrobe allowances for our foolish NA members. Baba, blame it on the cankerworm called corruption, Nepotism, tribalism, despotism, favoritism on the part of both the politicians, lecturers, educational administrators and stake holders. we see these things everyday! And with the aforementioned, you still want a level headed graduates? you cannot plant corn and harvest rice! you must reap what you sow! your clarifications above Baba AFe BABAlOLA!!!! |

Fluency in English language cannot be translated into being brilliant or an intelligentual but rather a means of communicating even better so as to avoid misunderstandin'. Nigeria as a country was never supposed to adopt English or make french language it's number one and two language since it is alien to the people of the region because it was brought to us by the Westerners. All we were to do is borrow some words from the English language the white man gave to us; usin' it as a foundation or a precursor so as to enable the buildin' of structures in pigin language. Just imagine how amazin' it could have been if chemistry, physics, biology, computer sciences, mathematics and English language were all taught in pigin language. The Time To Go Back To The Drawin' Board Is Now... Wake up young folks for these insults won't stop if we do not enforce a change. |

1Sharon: Close your mouth and stop renderin' bacteria homeless if understandin' is too great for you to conceive. But why on earth would a country with almost 300 tribes decide to adopt a white man's language as it's number one then french as it's number two language without considerin' the peculiarities of it's people. Pigin language would forever remain our language even if we keep denyin' and faking it |

byrron:Lol alot of thrash in what that man said. If he's bitter about a graduate not knowing what's tropic of cancer and Capricorn or where rain dey start and where e dey end, let him tackle the geography graduates and not graduates in general. Moreover of what benefit is it or how does that improve the life of the average Nigerian graduate? So he expects a graduate of English language or marketing to know what tropic of cancer and Capricorn is? Or a graduate of accounting to know what Magellan line is? Old age is seriously catching up with him. |
