Nigeria Educational system and Employment Opportunities
Currently Nigeria Educational system is very poor, we are still left behind when it comes to educational settings, no improvement in technology, no adequate practical teaching especially this century we all believe on pratical things not theory. Nigeria University still teach alot of theory than practical that has led to some decisions in Nigeria students when it comes to going to University they are discourage by lot of things happening in the country both the University system, economic system, employment system. Four years course will turn to five years course because of their management all of a sudden University strike for 4 to 5 month the last strike was upto 10 month before resumption of Universities after lot of University students have give up on school already.
Must Nigeria students don't go to school because they want to go to school, they go because there parents said they should go to achool. Some Nigerian parents still believe that going to school in Nigeria is still as useful as in those days, they don't know that Nigeria schools or University curriculum is way behind when it comes to the things of life or what the educational system can input in you to help you out in life. Must of this rich Nigeria parents who know what is going on in the country don't send their to Nigeria University, they rather send them out of the country to go and study abroad because they know Nigeria Educational system is poor. Must Nigeria students go to school just to get the certificate, not going to get knowledge or skills which is very bad because going to school involve getting knowledge, wisdom, to be discipline, to acquire more skills before we talk about certificate because certificate can actually not give you what you are looking for.
Going to school is longer interesting for Nigerians. This is where the Employment Opportunities come in, there is no encouragement going to school because you are a student you spend money every single year of stay in the University, paying school fees, paying dues, paying hostel fees or if you are staying outside campus you pay for House rent then after all this years of been a stusent you graduated from school and boom your certificate is useless because there is no job in the country. The next thing a university graduate is now a keke driver or employ in a sales shop as a sales boy or girl. Thank God for those who went to school and get some knowledge and skills they will open a self employed Business just to earn money for a living.
I will advise Nigerians please have a handwork or handworks or skills that can earn you some money because Nigeria itself is a country of opportunities and struggle to get to the top you need to know someone is already at the top or you fight your way up there. I wish things can change for the better of great Nigeria students.
