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.

Don’t be greedy!

This is one major rule in business. Your focus should not just be profit but the satisfaction of your customers. When you realise your customers are the sustainers of your business, it helps you to shift attention from profit to them.

Nigeria not ripe for agricultural export!

Over the years, the jingles about returning to agriculture has increased. Even a child would tell you that the solution to the Nigerian problem is returning to agriculture. The problem I have with those advocating for a return to farming has always been emphasis on exporting agricultural produce for foreign exchange. The truth is that we are not yet self sufficient and therefore should not be talking of export. One of the reasons why the prices of agricultural produce are costly and scarce today is because a large chunk that should have remained in circulation has been moved to the port for export. The local industries cannot even depend on our agricultural sector because of inconsistency in supply. If we therefore desire our industries to grow, it's time we stop export and focus first on local production and satisfaction. The excess can serve as export.
