Education vs. Employment in Nigeria


Most youths seek higher education for the purpose of securing both an impressive certificate and hopefully a satisfying white collar office job. But with the rate of unemployment in Nigeria it's almost impossible to secure a job even as a certified graduate.
This anomaly has left many educated youths jobless, despite the fact that most youths spend a lot of money in school fees just to become a better person in the society and in most cases provide his/her family a better standard of living, but due to unemployment, graduates seeks job opportunities in the oddest of places. Does this mean that Education is meaningless?.

The Failure in Education, Is It the Fault of Youths the Future Leaders or the Current Leaders.


Youths are the future leaders of a nation and the world they say, but what is to become of a society when the future leaders have a dismal performance in education.
Nigeria like any other developing country face lots of adversities in different sectors of the economy, Nevertheless, education is a necessity to the growth of the world, but the anomalies of Nigerian education suggests the downfall of the country.
Research showed that only 30 percent of over a million students who sat for the WAEC and NECO senior secondary school certificate exam within the last six years where able to obtain credits in five credits, this indicates that the other 70 percent of secondary school leavers could not be considered for higher education.

What Is Wrong With Nigeria Educational System?!!


Current situations and happenings in Nigeria has made it very difficult to be proud citizen. The educational system of Nigeria is supposed to help create and produce skilled and productive citizens but with its current state i fear an abysmal future.
Nigeria is not that underdeveloped, we are a country blessed with so many resources and amenities, our problem is presumed to be lack of good management of those blessings especially by the Government.
It is a disappointment that not even a single Nigerian university is among the 6,000 acknowledged universities in the world, due to the mismanagement of the country's resources, the educational standards of Nigeria is plummeting, citizens are being forced to seek education in foreign countries.
