Good day everyone,
Today is a new day, Wednesday 30th of July 2025 , I know all of us must have planned to do one or two things on this day , now the day has come , firstly let's thank God for the gift of life up till this very day, I believe all our plans for today will surely go well.
I'm here again today,
Still on the on going contest we are having on community, I have wrote two posts about this contest already, one is
the reflection of childhood discipline
@lutherking147/my-entry-on-weekly-engagement
I still have written about
different parenting perspectives
@lutherking147/my-entry-on-weekly-engagement-29088b17359bc
So today I will be writing about the third topic which is
our educational system
Regarding this particular topic, I will be writing only base on my country which is Nigeria because here is where I have experienced my schooling activities right from pre- nursery till my secondary school level. I haven't attend my higher institution yet but I can be able to write about what is happening there because some of my siblings are university graduates, so I do communicate with them and I know something's.
Base on the little knowledge I have about courses being studied in the higher institutions , to me I sees all of them to be very important, all courses has where it's needed the most , so none should be removed, but the problem we are having here in our country is lack of employment, imagine reading accounts for over 3 to 4 years and you graduated , on coming out instead of to get employed so you can start putting in practice what you studied, you will start looking for a hand work that you will learn or start learning any type of business.
When things like this are happening I do ask " what is really the essence of tasking yourself, sacrificing alot just to be a graduate"?.
It isn't funny at all, many bike riders today are all graduates , but because of lack of Job employment they have to look for something else that they will be doing just to keep surviving, many who studied a particular course are doing a total different thing from what they studied.
Here you will be surprised that people who studied agriculture in school, today they are working in the banks 😢,
those who studied accounts are now managing with farm works ,
those who studied physics are working as tailors, those who studied geography are doing buying and selling business,
Those who studied electrical engineering are doing barbing work,
Those who studied literature in school are now doing electrical works, and so on .
So things like this doesn't make the heart rejoice, its making a lot to go frustrated 🥴, it makes many to overthink most times and all these effects can shorten the life of the person.
So please base on this, my opinion is still that no course is useless but in our country here it seems all courses are very useless due to lack of Job employment.
my take
Thanks for reading.
