Several reactions have started trailing a trending video where a University graduate from Nigeria burns his certificates following his inability to get a good job after finishing school.
The frustrated graduate of Ajayi Crowther University burns all his certificates ranging from his degree, to his NYSC certificate among others after being unable to get a good job 13 years after finishing school.
In the video, the middle-aged Nigerian graduate expresses sadness over the situation of things in the country as he added that he is dragging jobs with illiterate despite being a University graduate.
According to the University graduate, there is no essence of having the certificates as it is just absolutely nothing but a waste of time.
Adding more reason to why he decided to burn his certificate, the man said that some country abroad do not even accepts Nigerian degrees and someone will have to end up learning something.
A voice could be heard in the background telling the University graduate not to burn his certificate, but he refused as he asserted there there was no reason for having all the certificates because there was no difference between the literates and illiterates in Nigeria.
He added that he would advise anyone to go and learn work now instead of going to the University while berating the certificates offered by the higher institutions.
He also noted while burning the certificates that the work he is about to get now is from a friend who didn’t go to University but they both went to the same primary school.

marketingicon1: This show that the guy is illiterate because how can you go to school and you can’t develop yourself to contribute to the society, only just to be waiting for job.
liborous_oshoma_gcfr: His mates are creating jobs, he is busy looking for a job. School teaches us to be problem solving rather than looking for who to solve our problems. As far as I am concerned, this clearly shows that he never truly went to school but just passed through the school system, like most people in Nigeria.
magni_ken: Thunder fire anybody that’s criticizing the guy, first; he can get it all back. Secondly, that’s the only way he can deal with his frustration and there’s nothing wrong in it. The only thing I see here is that, as a graduate you should be aiming to change the world. You actually don’t need anyone to hire you to earn a living. Unleash the entrepreneurship mindset in you. That’s the edge the lowly educated ones have that works for them. I re oo.
sunfamson: The next week, one of the places he applied to will now call him for a major position. Foolishness.
zaza_coin: Anybody wey insult this guy e no go better for that person generation 😢 I feel your pain brother 😢.
ibrahim.moshood.7: Those certificates have worked wonders for some people my friend. When people cheat all through WAEC, JAMB and schools, they should be made to know that there are consequences. Those who actually burnt the night candles have been able to carve out something to live with for themselves because they at least went to school. There are graduates’ unemployment everywhere in the world. Instead of discouraging the younger generation, you can advise them to be more calculative with choice of courses and involvement in entrepreneurial activities while in school. There are jobs in Nigeria ooo, people aren’t just sufficiently qualified to take them up.
phetty_081: Why are you Sad about this sir? This guy is plainly daft. The least you can get as a graduate is to become a teacher in one of the private secondary school they pay well, combine home tutor here and there. At the end of the month, he would live affordable within his means. He only passed through the school and the school didn’t passed through him. The primary aim of education is not to work 9-5, he can learn demanding skills under 3 months and be comfortable.
