Graduates have taken over most car wash businesses in Kaduna metropolis to end their endless search for formal jobs.
.
A correspondent who went round the city reports that the operators were making brisk business and smiling to the banks.
.
Julius Samba, a graduate of the University of Maiduguri, who operates a car wash centre at Poly Gate, said he ventured into the business when he realised he was wasting his "precious time searching for non existing jobs".
.
According to him, he washes as much as 25 cars on a good day and now makes between N80,000 and N100,000 a month.
.
He said, "i would not go to work for anyone if offered a job now, with 8 persons working for me."
Wow! That is pretty much serious. Inasmuch as it's a big disgrace it's still good to know that they're smiling to the bank. Very dope!
Nigerian graduates deserve more than that in my opinion. The issue of unemployment must be sorted out once and for all.
We should not get it wrong. There is nothing like a disgrace in it. Education gives you more to handle business appropriately. Any legal business you can do to make your living tells the entrepreneurship spirit in you.
The guy has indeed made a good step and now appreciates that freedom in being your own boss. The earnings may be small now but if he continues like that, he may also end up employing fellow graduates...
Kudos to him!
