Alarming! Universities now write Post graduate screening examination

The high rate of unemployment in Nigeria has reached a point where the number of graduates returning to the universities to pick post graduate forms for diploma, masters and PhD has greatly increased and still increasing by the years.
In the course of outwitting each other in the labour market, the number of Nigerian graduates returning to pick post graduate forms are increasing from year to year. The population is now so much that some universities in the course of trying to contain the increasing population now write post graduate screening examination.

one of such universities is the University of Nigeria, Nsukka which conducted her second second post graduate screening examination on 21st August, 2015. The increasing population is simply due to lack of befitting jobs for these graduates so they need acquire more qualification to beat the competition.
The truth is if only these graduates can look around them, the over N 100,000 they will be spending on getting more qualification and certificate can be spent on starting a small scale scale venture which can be nurtured for growth. 
Before you pick that diploma, master or PhD form (if you are not an academia), what is your motive? To get a job? More pay? Better opportunities? All these can be at your fingertips if you start your own venture.
NB: Not everyone will and should be entrepreneurs, know yourself.

Understand Priority!

It is important in life and especially business to prioritize ideas. Some questions that will help us as regard priority includes "when should this idea be implemented?" "Do I have all it takes to implement this idea now, if not, when will I have them?" "Won't it be late to implement this idea in so so and so time?" Etc. Many times, it's difficult to run/implement two or more ideas at a time but through priority we can still achieve them all though at different times. It also prevent tying up of capital and that may even affect both businesses. In priority, it's best to do the easiest first or one in which one has more expertise or one better research. In priority, a schedule is also important. When we ask the necessary questions, it would help us know how prepared we are for every idea we intend to implement less we start and encounter problem not anticipated. Some ideas are best implemented now than allowing them to wait while some are bet...

Prime movers of Agriculture!

It is good that the clamour for Nigerians to return to agriculture from the Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration of 1976 has been sustained by successive government. However, the problem with most of the call to return to agriculture is that those clamouring for such end with the thought of exporting the agricultural produce, this I disagree with. The question is ‘who are the farmers?’ because most times we want everybody to go back to the farm and if I understand what we are saying we are simply encouraging subsistence farming which from age past have never reduce unemployment or increase government revenue. What types of agriculture should we then do?
