Graduate walks from Fed. Secretariat to National Assembly looking for a job (photos)
This lady was spotted yesterday walking around Abuja with that sign over and asking for a job. Decided to put it up in case anyone has a job for her. She looks like she really needs the job...
Out of all d comments here 90% re busy correcting her English & saying she won't get a job with her Such English... U see why most Nigerian doesn't succeed is Bc of there wickedness & jealousy... Why will u wish som1 who took dis bold step bad Bc of her litle error? God have mercy on us... Who will speak when the has not spoken... If a God says yes who can say no?
My sentiments exactly. Too many Nigerian graduates, even those who studied English, mix up their tenses in this manner. This is why graduates with degrees from UK/US-based universities snap up the limited number of jobs that are available in the market. This lack of writing/communication skills is not indicative of the problems with our university system though, as one would expect that a person with an O Level credit pass in English would have gone beyond struggling with tenses. Neither is it this woman's fault - she probably had no one to mentor her on the benefits of reading for pleasure while she was growing up.
Am a graduate? I know English is not our mother-tongue but as a graduate, seeking for an employment in this courageous manner. She should have used correct sentence syntax. I am a graduate. Please we should stop using Am for I AM and stop using I'M for AM (AM I at fault NOT I'M I at fault). #MyTwoCents
At this woman's age, correcting errors in use of tenses would be difficult. Best thing to do is to catch them young. Most Nigerian students read only when necessary, usually to pass an examination. We should teach our children to read for PLEASURE
How I wish she was in Lagos bcos Lagos is pretty fair in gettig jobs compare to Abuja. I wish her all d best and may her heart desires come to pass IJN.
Eyah naija can frustrate person,u can imagine what don pass 2tru to put a show like this....smh...u wil find one dear...thanks @linda for puttin it up in ur blog.
She's really a graduate! Olodo! "Am"! First reason why she won't get my sympathy. Fellow graduates, it is "I'm" or "I am". This "am" is like saying ""is" a boy"! Who? Olodo geh! Half-backed graduates everywhere!
Good. But after getting this job u shamelessly asked for. Hope u will marry, cos we naija men have pride so we do not wish to marry a lady without shame. Engr Emy
A Nigerian guy tried this in Uk and it worked wonders for him.A Nigerian girl is replicating same act here in the capital city, I hope it does for her too. I hope some potbellied Dons won't pry on it to try taking advantage of her cos in Nigeria this might me termed as advertising Osho free.
HELP, not HELp, MY not My, since she's using only upper case letters. Wow! People do pay attention to details like these. How would she write an application letter correctly?
Hello madam graduate, how will you be employed when you are saying "AM" instead of "I'm or I am".....Consequences of BBM, Whatsapp, 2go, Viber et al...Graduate indeed. Goodluck all the same.
Of course you're having difficulty in your job search. You can't even write proper sentences. What is "AM a graduate"? You don't know the difference between "I'M" and "AM"?
Good initiative, although copied from successful implementation by a young Nigerian in UK. I'm a bit worried about her written English though. Hopefully, some employers might turn a blind eye to that
She is a graduate and she doesn't know the difference between I'm and Am. It's unfortunate that our educational system is geared towards providing unemployable graduates
As much as I empathize with her situation, it is a shame that she can't even construct simple sentences, what kind of job is she seeking? It is very sad that a great amount of "graduates" seem to have just gone through the motions and their capabilities leave A LOT to be desired.
You are a graduate and yet can't speak good English. How do you expect to attract a job? What does she mean by "I need Job". What does she mean by "Am with my CV here". The last I checked, "Am" and "I'm" meant two different things
Eyha...I feel for her only God knws how hard it's on her. It's well young lady the lord wil touch great man/woman to favour you # tears wish l can hlp!!!
No way!! not with all these appalling grammatical errors.. Haba, when you're going to make a bold move like this you need to get your act together/right. she has only proven that she is unintelligent and too lazy to even verify. Sorry she is um-employable, well at least not for any real job/position. She is also a disgrace to our educational system/process, she must stop this nonsense. Nigerian graduates complain that there are no jobs but we must start to ask ourselves how qualified we actually are for the few available. Madam please sacrifice and develop your self. I wish you the best.
What sort of graduate is this? Not knowing the difference between "I'm" and "am" ? "I need job" is that meant to be English? broken English or their cousins?This is a bad example of a Nigerian graduate. Smh.
I will notry employ her. First of all, its "I am a graduate. ..." or "I'm a graduate. ...". Not "Am a graduate....". Clearly she must have gaps on her CV with wasted years or months doing nothing. You can tell by this attitude. She is also not flowing the fast paced technology. She is not ready
Well, I wonder what she studied in school. However, she seems to have a challenges with the use of the English Language, which I presume, was the language in which she studied. Good luck to her...and her future employer.
Her desperation shows she would do any job cos she did not specify what job she wanted, if she really needs the job, she should have shown some level of competence, who doesn't need a job, I do too, but out of your desperation sis kindly show your capabilities as well. Linda please in case you know any proprietor/proprietress of a school, kindly link me up, I am into supply of uniforms. Thanks
If that's how she spells "I'm" then I'm definitely not going to give her a job. As a cleaner maybe I will, because I can't even risk making her a tea girl.... This new breed of Nigerian graduates smh.... Such a shame.
If I am to assess her, she already started failing by not including "I" before "AM". She should get her sentences right first before using that placard to disturb the peaceful public.
Now I am not trying to be a kill joy or anything, just to pitch in my two cents, Her placard is riddled with typos and she calls herself a graduate, what type of serious minded multinational company would employ her? only a mediocre company would or a government establishment would because its their system that cooked out this half baked graduate. Nice concept, bold, borrowed idea from the UK, but she should develop herself a little bit more.
Goodluck to her This joblessness can really be frustrating. I can't believe after spending 5years in school and came out with 2:1 am still jobless. I wish am business savy cuz am not sure this country has plans for us
She looks like she needs the job, but some intending employers will be put off with the grammar "I need job" as opposed to "I need a job", or writing "am a graduate " instead of "I'm a graduate ". #Just saying#
Am and I am, are two different things and it should be written I need a job not I need job except you were trying to write I need jobs. Please go and hustle (business wise),corporate jobs will not be good for you with the way you just wrote these things on your cardboard.
Commendable effort, poor execution. It's not "Am a graduate" but rather "I am a graduate". And it's not "I need job" but "I need a job". I'm sorry but I would not even look at her CV. This isn't Univeraity graduate level writing. #fail. When the Naija boy did something similar on the tube in the UK, he didn't make silly mistakes on his placard.
It's funny buh trust MI I rily undastand where she is comin from cos am in dat same shoe.... I av tried so many thins met so many pple buh still no way.... Linda pls wen is d next self made program..... Am in dying nid4a job of business as long as it feeds MI...

You need a job and you cannot write properly? What is 'am a graduate'? Where is your I? You're not serious yet. Go back home and bring your I with you then you will be considered. Nonsense.
Good effort. I would have recommended her for a job here in my firm, but unfortunately, she can't spell, and that is a graduate. SPELL CHECK - "I AM OR I'M A GRADUATE, AND I NEED A JOB" and not what she wrote there.
Nne it's well even inside well. What do u expect from a country who has no plans for the youths. You spend a lots in d higher institutions paid this n that after the time and so much stress of 4/5 years u go for extra one year mandatory services n collect peanut as alawy after start u face d world on your own. Isnt that pathetic? Sometimes u find out that those you left at home who re into one biz or d other are better than you after that wasted years. I call it wasted not bcos I choose to call it wasted but bcos society made u look stupid searching for what u will do after wasting ur time. Education is good no doubt but it's so frustrating if u don't hv what u do to earn a living. I feel for her.
Nigerian graduate indeed! Who will give you job with your incorrect grammar "AM A GRADUATE..." instead of "I AM A GRADUATE..." and the other sentence too, na wa o.
she needs a job and she cant spell probably. Damn.. What is "AM"??? whatever happened to "i'm" or "I AM"????. She had better go be a Janitor at some place. Dumb girl!!
she no sabi contruct jus short english to market herself.. where d job wan com from? i wish her well sha... na dis one go reign for naija graduates now, as one person don do, all of dem go folo her lead..
I wish her well oo! I too need a better paying job o! Planning to settle down by dec, presently earning 40k, and my husband to be earns 20k... my email address peacecole86@gmail.com.
Nigerians are heartless. How many of you can condescend this low to roaming the streets with placard (even with perfectly printed Grammar?) If you are not touched by the sufferings of others and you are busy judging grammar, then you are a lesser mortal.
@the "applicant Lady"
You have to be specific about what you want, what did you study in school. What can you do? You can really create a job instead of begging for one. Learn how to fix hair and before you know it, you will be employing people.
Like my nigga toske use to say that year.... Unemployment kills faster than HIV in Nigeria. Person dey talk say im no get job una get time dey correct her English. Trust Nigerians to be treating the symptoms instead of the disease. The struggle is real y'all
Nigerians are hypocrites, someone did same in the UK and was hailed as brave, same in Nigeria and it's frustration. A lot of you should get a clue from this lady. I hope she gets a fulfilling job
Correct the girl in a good manner and stop abusing her profusely wit fucky comments.....if it was a celeb dat wrote dis, u guyz gonna copy dem but a poor girl searching for job, u r to encourage and pray for her!!!! Damn! Learn to encourage people so that God can help you too
Nigerians and their bad month. Na wa ooo. Someone cant make mistake again. I have been following linda for 4 years now. I have never commented on any discussion. My own is to read bcos u guys knw how look for mistake and to insult someone

ReplyDeleteAm a graduate. Well learn how to spell miss graduate. Maybe that is why nobody has given you work. It is I am or I'm.
DeleteSorry for you! Don't you know that I'm is still I am?. Be wise! Don't just comment because you have data

ReplyDeleteNigerian graduate indeed! Who will give you job with your incorrect grammar "AM A GRADUATE..." instead of "I AM A GRADUATE..." and the other sentence too, na wa o.
ReplyDeleteWith her writing "I'm" as "Am", I don't expect her to get a job.
ReplyDeleteAll the best to her with her. Desperate times calls for desperate measures. Linda take note!

ReplyDeleteEyyaaa...
ReplyDeleteIts I'm not am. That's why you can't get a job. Go back to school.
ReplyDeleteI'm not Am...this is enough to disqualify her and turn off any potential "helper"
ReplyDeleteI'll need her to fix that "AM" to I am (I'm). Yes, it's critical!
ReplyDeleteCHANGE !!! CHANGE !!!!!!!Nigeria IS CHANGING INDEED
ReplyDeleteShe sure needs a job Asap. Love the spirit
ReplyDeleteAnd the graduate can't spell. I Am / I'm. Not "AM"
ReplyDeleteGraduate but doesn't know the difference between I'm and am. Park well mbok.

ReplyDeleteNigerians are heartless. How many of you can condescend this low to roaming the streets with placard (even with perfectly printed Grammar?) If you are not touched by the sufferings of others and you are busy judging grammar, then you are a lesser mortal.
ReplyDelete@the "applicant Lady"
You have to be specific about what you want, what did you study in school. What can you do? You can really create a job instead of begging for one. Learn how to fix hair and before you know it, you will be employing people.
Like my nigga toske use to say that year.... Unemployment kills faster than HIV in Nigeria. Person dey talk say im no get job una get time dey correct her English. Trust Nigerians to be treating the symptoms instead of the disease. The struggle is real y'all
ReplyDeleteNigerians are hypocrites, someone did same in the UK and was hailed as brave, same in Nigeria and it's frustration. A lot of you should get a clue from this lady. I hope she gets a fulfilling job
ReplyDeleteShe is not a graduate, she is unable to grasp proper written English, more suited to menial work...
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, since she cannot write correct ENglish, she will not attract employers who know any better.
ReplyDeleteHmmm
ReplyDeleteFor starters, "am" is not the same as "I'm" which means I am!!
ReplyDeleteGraduates of nowadays sef.
