Your Degree Isn’t Broken—But It’s Not Enough Anymore.
What if I told you that in 2025, over 67% of unemployed graduates aren’t jobless because they’re lazy…
But because they’re skilled only in theory?
Harsh, I know. But here's the uncomfortable truth:
Degrees used to open doors. Now they just get you to the waiting room.
I was in your shoes not long ago—fresh out of university, clutching a degree like it was a golden ticket…
But all it got me was ghosted job applications and “we’ll get back to you” emails.
Sound familiar?
The game has changed.
Today, employers want proof of skill—real, marketable, hands-on abilities.
Not just a laminated paper with your name on it.
So here’s the million-naira question: What skill do you actually have that solves a real problem?
If you had to pause before answering that, it’s not your fault.
Universities prepare you for exams.
The real world demands results.
It’s like learning to swim by reading a book—only to be thrown into deep water on day one.
The breakthrough?
Start learning one high-income skill that aligns with where the world is going—not where it’s been.
Digital marketing. Coding. Design. Data analysis. AI tools. Content strategy.
These are just a few skillsets companies pay for—today, not in theory.
Because tomorrow might be too late.
The best time to start was yesterday. The next best time? Right now.
