Must be a skit though

Then again, paper certification is nothing if you are not smart and creative

A smart and hustling primary 6 graduate will do better in life

No offense!

illicit:
Maybe first class from National Open University...

But we've seen 2nd class upper graduates from the same university making waves in their respective field in and outside the country, and we've seen 1st class graduates from the likes of UI and OAU doing extremely poor in their chosen field. It boils down to who u are as a person and how far u've gone in discovering urself. Try to see beyond ur nose.

occfx:
Anything less than 1m is an abuse on first class... Though our education system is shiit

But she claimed,she paid them well- though no verification on their Salaries!
But why is she particularly on the First Class-graduates or Degree Holders?
Is she one too?
Something is missing here!

illicit:

I swear or private Uni

Yugoslavia247:
If she is not first class or second class upper then it is to spite them.

The joy some people have denigrating first class because they did not put in effort to get it.

Or maybe out of goodwill.

Or maybe taking the best from the rest.

this is silly talk I am afraid

All I see is a glorified slave driver.

Mindlog:
The lady intentionally recruited them (though they don't give the vibes of First Class quality) to prove a point that she can diminish and spite what graduating with a First Class, represents......a reflection of her insecurity.

But it's okay from 1st class to do such job outside the country

riczy:
I swear or private Uni

Private University what the difference between you and the lady now If your parents couldn't afford private university fee's just say it.

Don't believe everything u see on social media. Let them show us their certificates let us confirm. Shio!

so u think most ppl who didn't attend P. Uni is because it's u affordable, u don't know me, then choose ur words!

ccollins:
big lie. this is falsehood on social media

The security guard is from a security company firstly.
Anybody can claim to be anything, no school was mentioned to their results.
All na marketing.

nedekid:

On the alternative, why don't you or government employ them, wy not take them to shell or chevron to give them employment?
We Nigerian sha are the greatest hypocrites, we cannot do better but yet critizes those willing to. If from a crowd of job seekers, you see those that put in effort to make first class, will you ignore them and employ the 3rd class? Will that not be more discriminatory? If you employ the 3class same Nigerians will yab you for dumping first class to the unemployment market.
Everything in life is a stage, they will hold body with this job untill better things come.

U are not getting the narrative. She's not employing First Class because she's trying to be generous or to take them off the streets NO. She's trying to denigrate first class honours by employing them as cleaners,gatemen etc. Better still watch the video again and see how hungry her first class employees look.

tutudesz:

At least the minimum wage they earn outside the Country, is a living wage while they work their way out of those jobs.

This is exactly what most nigerian graduates do overseas some even do more degrading jobs like washing corpses in morgues. Nothing special if a saloon and boutique is also employing them here in nigeria, to get a decent job right now in nigeria takes a lot.

You don't know those who graduated from private university to make such statement in the first place.

Here in the heart of Lagos exists a saloon and boutique where the staff are all first class degree holders. The categories of workers includes; gate man, cleaner, stylist, cashier, supervisor, etc.

Wonders shall never end.

Don't blame her

Na the 1st class graduate wey gree to be gateman no get sense.

Maybe she pay in dollars or the pay is very good , even at that I still don't understand how first class graduates go dey suffer,don't most universities offer them automatic employment?

Theres no logical explanation for seeking a gradauate, let alone a first class graduate, to man the gate.

Bar1941:
First class in mass communication from a Polytechnic! When did polytechnics start issuing grades as first class?

Moreover, having a first class doesn’t really mean you are the smarter in your class, it’s just that you cram more or have more time to warm your books than others.

All the so called employees in that video look mentally unstable. Seems she’d already used there brains.

E shock me too, is he not supposed to be "Distinction" ? Hope this is not scripted because some people might investigate those grades ooooo

tutudesz:

Of course its not okay; especially when they both pay the exact same amount.

One doesn't pay you almost 6times what one pays with better living standards.

Its the exact same thing. Let's compare it further.

Fiscus105:
I biliv those people bought their first class.

Perhaps, as a result of village people.

It's very possible one of the girls that was interviewed said she graduated from a first class.

Mindlog:

It's all about earning an honest pay. We know that Job are not available in Nigeria presently and the level of crime.
But this news is fake anyway, because most companies will employ those 1st class graduate

You know cleaners salary depends on sector by sector A cleaner and cooks who work on Oil Rig earn more than Bank manager

I will rather pick up the hoe and Cutlass, enter farm and start farming than take this denigrating job even if the pay is .

The video was consciously intended to ridicule because it is no crime to earn a honest wage.

Unfortunately 99% of video online presently are fake, saw a similar video about a guy saying all his domestic workers are 2:1 graduate.
Everybody is a content creator this days

The owner is most likely one of the dull brains in school who made it and now derives pleasure in "taking revenge" on the smart ones.

Are you paying them 250k monthly or what, if you are paying them that much, does it mean you are into money laundry. So how much are you making in your store per day.. bcus boutique are not everyday sales stuff. Sometimes u go days without sales.... most especially when it's very expensive then only very few people could patronise

I expected the guy to ask why she hired First Class graduates only ..... and their salary range. He has typical " Nigerian mentality" ... First Class graduates must be in collar and tie job .... or ...... be jobless. Millionsss be out there roaming the streets wailing and blaming.... start from halfway up the ladder or don't start. I don't think this is a career job for the workers....but I can see. it as an opportunity for them to gain employment in their respective fields. No doubt ...the salon is a high end one ... the clients well connected and always that the employees are all graduates. What is likely to happen if a client knows of a vacancy for a graduate? The salon may very well be also serving as a recruitment center for First Class graduates ....and why wouldn't a company want to recruit from there when they can find out about the person's work ethics etc? The one I ire most is the one doing the braiding..... she can make a living anywhere in the world . To the graduates who can't "stoop so low" to do such jobs ..... don't think about going abroad.... this is typical abroad. ...very typical. ....eat humble pie or starve.

More like this!

It’s just unfortunate.

PS: Just watched it. More like a skit abi content.
The voices of the interviewer and CEO dey disgusting to listen to.
Mofos who couldn’t sit their asses down to study, but will always look for the faintest opportunity to make rubbish of those who did.

comrChris:
This is a bad PR
Looking at those workers, their composure, English doesn't depict people that graduated with first class. They were simply trained to say those things.
I can bet it that the gateman and the cleaner didn't even go to school.

Even the owner of the company telling the interviewer that some of her workers IS inside instead of using ARE shows how terrible her English is.

The interviewer too asking them, you're a graduate from first class, what the hell is you're a graduate from first class?

These guys, from the owner, the interviewer down to the staffs are dumb

EXACTLY!!!

They are all bunch of liars!
