See A Graduate That Sells Akara For A Living

AKARA AYO
Arouse the average unemployed graduate
from sleep and ask for his dream place of
work. In a flash, he would tell you a bank, or
the oil sector, or a federal institution or a
telecommunication company. He would
never tell you he prays to work in the
unregulated and scorned informal sector.
Who could blame him?
All the years he sacrificed to get an
education was to get a ‘befitting’ job. So
when you find a graduate who obtained a
bank job but voluntarily turns in his
resignation to embrace a blue-collar job, you
want to know what went wrong. When you
find that the job he willingly embraced is
frying and selling akara (bean-cakes), you
want to know what really really went wrong!
