The importance of Education
Education is the key to Success, so we were told but it seems the government has changed the padlock because the rate of unemployed graduates in my country is alarming.
I still believe that education is the best legacy parent can give to their children even though it might not guarantee them a good job it will help them greatly in life.
To seek knowledge and learn things that could be useful to us and even elevate our status.
Education may not get you your dream job, but it can connect you to great people who also came to seek knowledge in the same institution as you, the knowledge you also gain from going to school is priceless as it will stick with you for the rest of your life.
I am at the lowest chain when it comes to Certificates, I only have an SSCE result, and at a point in my life, I planned to give up on the aim to further more when higher institutions refused to give me the course that I wanted and Jamb keep jamming me, I had to struggle for years without a positive result.
At some point, I gave up but later realized the Certificate may not be useful in my country but it is highly needed in other countries which kind of awakened my interest to study again.
A part-time program
I am running a Part-time program in a prestigious school in Lagos where I would bag a degree in National Diploma but I would not stop there, I am also going to run for a Higher National Diploma.
I do not have a plan to work with my certificate at least not here in my country but If I get a good offer in another country, I would go for it as long as it does not affect my freedom because I would prefer a remote job that allows me to work from home.
Education is very important, it is not just about graduating and securing a job, there is more to it than that and education is not just about the primary, secondary, and university we attend. The vocational institution we attend is also part of education.
Nowadays people get successful through vocations, some vocations pay more than a collar job, it was in the past that people valued collar jobs so much, but people have started to realize that nothing beats having your own business and being your boss.
I know a guy who is learning fashion design and he is earning a lot of money daily and now he is using the same money he earns from it to take care of his family, he left Nigeria last year with his family.
The point of the short story is for others to stop thinking they can't survive without being employed by others and people should start learning to have their own business.
Anyone who plans to be great in life should attend one of those places that offers education.

Giving up is not an option, every hustler has a payday
Don't wish for it, Make it happen
Education helped someone fit better into the society. It serves a purpose beyond earning with the certificate. And I think certificate is still useful everywhere with Nigeria not an exception. Self employment is great.
In a world in constant change, it is important that people keep training and updating themselves, I have always thought that it is a good idea to have a university degree, but also to learn some practical skills and be good enough at it for a side husle, that will open many doors and will allow you not to depend only on a job in a company.
You are thinking to go abroad and it's your motivation for your study. So best of luck to you. And in case of making money we should not compare ourselves with others.
you analyze my write up well lol, you are correct
It's very crucial to get education in this time of technology and science where everything is transforming into technology. I wish that you will be a refined one with your education and soon you will get your national higher diploma. Good luck 🤞🍀
It is a fact that education is very important and without it it is absolutely impossible to succeed in today's age. There are benefits that we come to know in our next life.
yes it is
Yeah.
Jamp can frustrate someone's desire to further his or her education very well. Many succesful people that did not attend the university were because of constant failing of jamp. Some of them if you look at their lives today they are doing way better financially than those that actually went to university.
that is the twist of life.
those who are doing financially better without attending uni made sure not going to higher institutions didn't limit their drive for success
That’s the goal but the way some people totally write off education baffles me
We need education ooh
Nice plan!
Education has evolved a bit and I think people need to find ways to evolve with it to see what works for them. For me, education was fundamental in understanding the world we live it and how it works. Being educated can always be an advantage in many aspects of life.
Education is indeed the key to success, but as you rightly pointed out, it's not just about getting a job. It's about gaining knowledge, skills, and experiences that will stay with you for life. And who knows, your education may lead you to great opportunities and connections that you never thought possible.
And as for the unemployed graduates in our country, well, maybe they should take a cue from your friend who's earning a lot of money from fashion design. Who knows, they might just discover their own passion and start their own business.
It's truly sad knowing the number of graduates increases every year, while unemployment also raises to a high pick every Year. Education to me no the key to success as we were told as kid, but a medium for one to be fit in the society. Vacation is an amazing experience that open you up to diverse form of learning, I so much agree with you sir.
This jamb eeeh, thank God that I got the course I so desire. It seems the government changed the padlock indeed and left us without the key....or did they lock the padlock with know and the one we don't know together?
Am glad you took the bold step. Education is not just for the job, there is more to it. It is best to discover thee man within.
You wrote so well dear
