Each time i see what "Bayo Omoboriowo" does with photography, even as a 4.26 graduate of chemistry.....
I ask my self what is the essence of Education? if doing what you like pays the bill and makes you shine like Buhari shoe and keep your head high like Jonathan's Fedora hat......then that is the true essence of schooling.....to polish your skills and give you opportunity to think wide.....
Think like Whizkid, Dare Art alade, Runtown, flavour, 2face et.al to write rhymes and flows that would change your life for good..
.if writing your way to the top like "Japheth Omojuwa" would save your ass from GNLD Job invites.........then keep the ball rolling.
if only we know what the future hold for us, may be we would be more tactical and change our views about life and what true Education is all about.
Who buys all the buggati, verari, 4matics, fords of this world? Business men and people with skills and great dexterity and not civil servants.
Who travels around the world and see places? definitely not 8-6 workers.
Who builds all the mansions we all see on the front covers of magazines? definitely not paid workers but innovators.
Possibly when we start thinking out of box, of how to at least put food on our table, may be would stop distributing cv's to all our enemies.
Every job interview is another story for another day, the agony and level of HR constant show of remorse and ineptitude is so down casting.. Until we are able to tell them, that we are better than that piece of paper called certificate, then we shall trample on vices that has always been stopping us from progressing.
Job Applicants, Lets think, follow our subconsciousness, lets listen to our inner minds, work on our ideas, ideas are mind virus the replicates with time. Ideas rules the world, it can take us to places, it gives us the only secured job we all have been looking for. After all, what we are looking for is survival, conviniency and satisfaction.
If that hobby we overlooked is giving us stipends, then its safe to say we can get much more from it, if we devout more time and becomes more passionate.
We can make it as a standup comedian, if "i go die" can do it.
We can make it as an On Air Personality (OAP) if we start a little as functions/programmes MC.
We can create better Apps, better blogs than Linda ikeji, better forum than even Nairaland..
We can do well as a fashion designer, if wasiu taiwo (wessy fashions) who use to be M.K.O'S Tailor can today build a continental suites.
Today we see how all this small artistes, buying flashy cars and mansions all around, yet most didn't even do up to one-quarter of what we went through in the university.
Lets look around our environment, what problem can we solve that can fetch us something, no matter how small it is, definitely we won't be where we are yesterday even though we may not in any way near where we want to be.
Lets keep an open mind and do something behind while we keep sending our CV's (if we still feel the need). Indeed, opportunities abound if only we can comb and scan our environments.
After all Paid Jobs = Money
Service Provision & Talents = Money
Business = Money
ALL WOULD PUT US FOOD ON OUR TABLE AND MAKES US RESPONSIBLE.
Still on the street sha........... Every man must live his on path.......Every odenigbo, adisa and garuba would one day find his level.
Then, we shall say we have arrived..
God bless all the "never say never" dudes and chicks still on the street......
Shout out to those Street dons giving us the "can do" spirit and the "going inspiration".
WE SHALL GET THERE.................ONE DAY!
Just thinking........Echoes from the voice of the wriggling Nigeria youths on the street.
It shall be well with us.........
