Do you remember how you felt when you finished secondary school?, The few months you stayed?. You were excited that youâve finished secondary school, as the days went by, you started feeling tired, lonely and sometimes down. All your secondary school friends were no more around you, the only thing that gave you that joy was you preparing for the university, you still had a long way to go in life.
Now, youâve entered the university, youâve made new friends, and youâre done with University. Like when you were done with secondary school, loneliness will set in, no more waking up to classes, seeing your friends and staying jiggy around campus. The only thing thatâll be giving you hope will be your preparation for NYSC.
Now, after coming back from NYSC, youâll notice youâre getting really older. Youâll look around you and the only thing you have is your certificate, and maybe a pre knowledge skill on how to sew dresses without money for startup.
Now, the truth in most cases is, we donât like to embrace the reality, but if youâre someone that likes to embrace reality and take action, this stage after NYSC will be when youâll know if youâll be using your certificate or not, if Education is for you or not.
Now, this time, youâll know why Nigeria has the highest number of unemployed youths in the world with a staggering 33.3%. the few employed youths battling with a minimum wage of N30,000 a month. If you want to go to the labor market with your B.sc certificate, with connections, you can get a job for N50-100k per month, without connections, you can be picked as a teacher In Tower of Ivory schools for N37,000 per month, working everyday.
I took 6 months to do a deep research on this. You can also go and verify . I have six siblings who are done with NYSC, two with a first class, but I put it to you that none of them are using their certificate.
I called about 90 of Uniuyo and Aksu old students from 012 to 015 to ask them how life is with them, 90% of them began with âomorrrâ.
I just feel students should be educated on the truth outside the university, so they should really prepare their mind, embrace truth, brace up and drop all the false hope.
Behind every âI thank God for a successful POPâ, there is a âWhere do I even go from hereâ.
