Life after graduation is not easy. Whether you studied a professional or non--professional course, you will suffer after school, but those that studied professional courses has a better chance of securing job in the labour market.
I repeat, life after school is not easy. This is not Nollywood. What you see on Nollywood is rare in reality.

While on campus, you can discover your gift and work hard to avoid suffering after school. Don't depend on people but rely on God. Hustle as a student, do business, organize campus fellowship to win souls, contest elections. Just engage in something that brings money because when you go broke, nobody will help you.
Academics won't give you money. It is better to try something and fail than not trying at all. If you contest election and lose, it teaches you something which political science cannot teach you. People are hungry, so they don't care about your manifesto or vision, if you don't help them financially, you will lose election or anything you are fighting for.

Don't wear expensive clothes to impress people because nobody really care about your appearance. You can use the money for expensive clothes to better your life. You don't need to be buying plenty clothes, you can manage the little you have, iron it and wear.
Learn from your father's mistakes, don't associate with people that never liked your father. If they never liked your father, they can never like you.

Don't allow yourself to be used without a reward. Before David accepted to kill goliath, he asked the people what shall be done for the man who kills Goliath. David wanted to make sure there is a reward before accepting the task.

If I mistakenly accept a job that doesn't fetch money, I instantly lose interest in that job and I won't put my energy in such useless Job.

If you have access to a laptop and a good internet connection, go and learn how to code. It is the best thing you will ever do for yourself.

You see this life ehemmmm omoh e tough o. Since I left NYSC no reasonable source of income. I can't even my dreams, depression has fccked everything up.

At a point I stopped praying for a job for myself, I started praying for every graduate without a job and facing financial crisis. Unemployment is tough and rough, the thing even one man.


Only thing I am thankful for is being alive. When there is life, there is hope. But when there is hunger it's hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

]Please if you could loan out or gift out a laptop to learn programmingp I would be glad.
Or if you could give out a laptop so I could pay installment please help me. it's for programming

I have read a lot of write-ups/articles on this topic or something related to this topic and after thorough thinking I came up with a conclusion.
My conclusion is, "SO LONG AS THE GOVERNMENT DIDN'T FORCE/COERCE YOU TO SCHOOL, WHY THEN DO YOU EXPECT A JOB FROM THEM."?

If your "mindset" is to look for job after school, I am sorry who just wasted your whole years in school. You are in school to be creative/creators, to be thinkers, to think your way through life by the experience, lessons e.t.c you learnt from school so that you can stand out and become independent and not carry a piece of paper and be looking for what does not even exist. I have more to say, but let me stop here.

The only valid reason I will accept looking for job should be because you want to learn from your boss/job in case you want to establish your corporation for a limited amount of time, any other reason is invalid.

I gave up on Nigeria 10 years ago

Become an entrepreneur build your own business

You are about to understand the true meaning of that line "So help me God" in Nigeria's anthem.

Life after NYSC is on another level.

Don't be afraid, it is challenging but if you overcome it, then you're made.

In all you need God.

Easier said than done.

Do you think starting a business is any easy?

FYI, it's tougher than being employed.

Depend on God. You have said it all
