Growing Up in an average Nigerian home, the drill was to grow up go to primary school, secondary school and then next to the university and study a "professional course" so he could grow up to be independent and learn to fend for himself and the family by extension.....it felt like it worked and it was the go to way to live life. some of our parents even got jobs before they finished secondary school but sadly the set up is no longer the same in the 21st century....these days even your first degree is almost very useless in securing any job that you are either left with going for your masters or deciding to become an entrepreneur...being an entrepreneur is so popular these days that it if you aren't joining the bandwagon of becoming a COE you were looked at like you were just wasting your life but the truth is some of us just wan to help grow another person's dream for a while before we decide to join the exclusive class of COEs and for some, a steady pay check at the end of month is all they want to become happy and enjoy their forever after..
However i have learnt that School isn't only the way one can become successful, Education is not necessarily about going to school, it is more about knowing things and understanding that seeking knowledge is whatever field you are interested and becoming the best at whatever you do..till i write again .....Be Happy
