By Professor Chuke Nwude I wrote this and a lot of people said, "No course is useless." In Nigeria, if you come from a struggling family and your main reason for going to university is to study a course, graduate, get a job, and help your family financially, then there are courses you need to think very carefully about before choosing When I say "useless," I don't mean the course itself has no value. I mean it may be useless to your specific goal if your goal is to use it to put food on your table after graduation  The problem is not the course itself, the problem is the Nigerian job market. In an ideal country, every course should have enough opportunities for graduates. Unfortunately, that is not the reality we are living in. NIGERIA IS DIFFERENT. Let me explain. If you go to a teaching hospital today, depending on how big the hospital is, you might find between 100 and 300 medical doctors working there. Now let's look at some other professions...

Ikpea Media Team Network  The trajectory of   representation of the Senator representing  Edo  Central Senatorial district, Senator Joseph Ikpea, could be likend to the story of the feather of an eagle. There is an adage in the Esan dialect which tells of a person who once used merely a feather from an eagle to prepare a pot of soup which intriguingly turned out to be exceedingly delicious. This adage suggests  a deeper reflection: if a single feather could yield such satisfying results, how extraordinary would the outcome be if the whole eagle were available? This proverb speaks volumes, profoundly too, of a simple reflection of the immense dividends that would be gained from empowering and supporting someone like Joseph Ikpea who wasn't in any elective position and yet was empowering his people.  Before his election as  Senator, Joseph Ikpea demonstrated a commendable commitment to great and enviable community  social responsibi...
