In an interview with Vanguard, Adeshola said
"Presently Lagos state government through the Lagos State Drivers Institute, LASDRI is training and accrediting conductors in the state, adding that after the training the graduands would be employed as Bus Conductors and would be on the payroll of the government with a salary worth of N50,000 per month. The objective is to make the job of bus conducting attractive, respected and dignified as obtainable globally”.

Hmmm! I'm short of words but still an avenue to create jobs to unemployed graduate.
Good move.This is why we support APC government. Some of us see things ignorant people do not see.
I hope his son will be among them? Ambode!!! This insult is too much haba!

IF THIS IS TRUE, THEN GOD BLESS LAGOS!

Why conductor huh? Anyway
God is watching you all.. after u embezzled the National cake u employ the youth as bus conductors? Anyway at all at all na em bad pass
Imajine..what a country..nawa oo
This is Good news
The profession is at first degrading for a graduate except that the salary is not too bad
Na me talk am!
Long Live Lib!!!
We there's nothing out there but at least they can come out with something tangible
Wtf.....so what is the essence of going to school for 4-5yrs and eventually become a glorified bus conductor. This govt needs to get its priorities sorted out.
Bus conductors? Are you kidding? These are graduates ......
Dats gud o but who wan be conductor?
...merited happiness
So all the year's spend in d university to study engineering and others courses is just to end up as bus conductorfor just 50k..SHM...AMBODE PLS SHIFT....
Hahahha conductors ? That's for agbero not graduates that are future leaders
Very good initiative. I hope job seekers dump their pride aside and take advantage of the offer?
Rubbish!!!! Idiots why don't u guys pick peeps up from d street, clean them up and give them d bus conductor work. I blame Dangote who started it, how can people go to school for 4years or more then graduate to come and be bus conductors?. Useless dignity.
Godforsaken😕😕😕😕😕
Equivalent of £100 per month. Is this really the change APC and Buhari promised? to reduce graduates to bus conductors. Means no hope for School Cert. and First School Leaving Certificates holders. Would the governor please reserve one of these lucrative positions for one of his own sons too. Nigerian politicians are having a laugh because they are ruling over a bunch of people who has methodically been divided along religious and ethnic lines, rendered powerless, fighting themselves instead of coming together to kick out the common enemy, the politicians.
Let me ask this seemingly space age question - why do we need conductors on any commuter bus in 2016?
Nice one Ambode
Lib addict#just passing#
Hmmm jus speechless
Chineke m
Just imagine the insult from this APC.
Just imagine the insult from this APC.
I find that very degrading for a graduate!! So what do the uneducated conductor do to survive?? Armed robbery
Danfo, Nay!. BRT, Ok
The dumbest initiative a government could ever come up with...Dear Lord. How about building industries and developing our unused natural resources into industrial enterprise.hence,creating a viable employment for GRADUATES/Youth. Training individuals to become a bus conductors should be an initiative that benefits people with no degree, that way, there is something available for pretty much everyone at different levels. #Ourleadersneedstotakeboldersteps.
Which training did Oluomo obtain to become the Capone of Garages in Lagos?!
Rubbish ideas everyday.Come to think of it;which box are they going to be conducting as it is done"globally". Most of this our so-called leaders as so stupid and have no iota of leadership talent in them.what an idea from space!!!
Ok.....
E never sink wella
Ohh really? And how many of those officials children are going to take up a job like that?
...Graduate conductors!!!!I hope they start with their sons, daughters and relatives...SMH..Very stupid initiative .....Who ever thought this up is wicked...I wonder what this country will become in a few years.....May be in a few years too Masters holders will be recruited to pack refuse in the name of dignifying a profession...I feel real sad over the kind of govt we have in this country.
Like seriously?
Lol...Atleast they have created jobs for 1k people
Drivers nkan?
There's nothing attractive bout being a bus conductor....they don't have to sell it like dis.
Lol funny it's
Techgeniushub.com
This is really awesome, hope oda states tak sumn outta dis
Speechless speechless, dats how I feel now
So to be a bus conductor, one would have to get a university degree?
What about those with jssce and ssce, they will train and employ them as what? Rubbish
Lol
This is just ridiculous...is this the best job they could find for them. How about employing them in the various ministries in the state.
How is that productive? You can put in 1000 graduate in a productive sector even if they are line staffs and get more results at the end of the day... The job conductors do are not jobs for graduate. It doesn't need special skill to let som1 into a bus. U can rather put 1000 taxi cabs on the road and partner with uber and u can get better returns. My opinion
Ok. Seen and let's wait for the outcome.
#ODIA
Imagine this APC govt, from turning graduate to dressing of masquerade according to lie lie muhhamed now is turng graduate to conductor in Lagos, nawa o this change eehhhh!eget as e be.
CHIEF NAVIGATION OFFICER OF LAGOS STATE. I SALUTE UR MAI-MAI IDEA. U DON CREAT JOB BE THAT.SAVE UR 50K AND FOR REAL NIGERIA NEVER ROTTEN REACH THAT STAGE. WHAT A BIG SLAP ON OUR FACES. MAY GOD HELP U THINK WELL
He just provided job for jobless graduate but if you have better job for the jobless graduates you can start employing them.mumu like say it's not better than bring jobless.
Better than being idle. Linda take note!
But seriously, considering the quality of graduates in Nigeria, I see nothing wrong in the job. I tried employing 'graduates' as my company's rep and I was so disappointed. Most of them failed the basic aptitude test. Bad handwriting, terrible English, some couldnt even answer a question as simple as 50% of 250,000 without a calculator. Even with a calculator, one of them still failed it. I shake my head for this country. Youths want money but no brains to work hard, no intellect in abundance like the 80s and early 90s when my kids were growing. So sad that even the govt can't do better
Linda, you no help matter at all. You would do your audience a great favor by simply changing the graphics of the Danfo bus to BRT. The job is meant for BRT/LAG bus and not Danforth bus.
This is so cool....I've always known ambode will deliver. 50k for bus conductors! Even some white collar jobs don't pay dis much. Good move!
"Rubbish" is a generous word for this mad initiative. Conducting a bus does not improve GDP Oga ambode. Grow up. If you are reading this, please gather 1000 youths and open a farm settlement arraingment where they can grow crops and rear livestock and still have a settlement home. Say in epe,your hometown, or Ikorodu.
Rubbish!
utter rubbish!!!! is there any skill needed to hang onto buses, call passengers and shout with hoarse voices???? ds is really sad..when govt can open vocation centers and train them into skilled workers like carpentry, electrician, tailors, barbers, hairdressers etc and dey will use that skill to get employment in places that dont require knowing the whos_and-whos....
Story for the gods.
says, Genevieve .
See ds 1,lik uv passed badagry sef. Abeg,mk we hear,no come disgrace ursef here. Bus conductor abroad indeed!

-D great anonymous now as Vivian Reginalds
does it even mk sense??? pls how abt enforcing them with the LAWMA? or voluntary services eg teaching, traffic regulation, monitoring and control, etc...
-D great anonymous now as Vivian Reginalds
But this is rubbish na. How can you employ a whole graduate as bus conductor and turn them into touts are area boys? You are just under-utilising them. I will rather be under-utilised as a graduate abroad than be under-utilised in Nigeria
BIG FOOL LIKE U. THE NEXT TIME UR GOVERNOR GO ASK GRADUATE TO DEY PICK DIRTY FOR LAGOS STREET AND E GO GIVE AM SWEET NAME. CORPORATE GARBAGE COLLECTOR. GOD HELP US OUT OF THIS CLUELESS MAN.IMAGINE GOING TO UNILAG FOR 4 YRS AND END UP HANGING ON BUSES AS CONDUCTOR. UR EXCELLENCY PLS START THIS GAME WITH UR RELATIVES AND JOBLESS GRADUATE IN LAGOS WILL FALL IN LINE.
Like seriously Apc is a scam can you just imagine graduates being a conductor after 5yrs in academy then plus 1yr nysc omg Nigeria is a joke itself
Enter your comment... They did not say a university graduate, they said people who graduates from the training they re conducting for professional conductors. The information was misinterpreted.
In the States.
If you drive a school bus,metro bus or even a freight truck you are very well paid.
So I applaude this first step100%.
Destiny killer,
*************//*********ok... Wen are dey starting recruitment????????
Glad you used the word "abroad". Meaning not in Nigeria.
Ambode son. Fashola son. Lai mohammed. Buhari son.tinubu son .must be bus conductor too
Really smart! The Governor OBVIOUSLY needs more advisers like you.
Pls don't send them to early grave. Is that part of the job opportunity APC promised to offer during their campaign? Shame on u after several years of study on to end ones carrier as tout a mere conductor, what a pity Nigeria.
Job creation or not I see this as a big insult on graduates and Nigerian youths!!!. Is that the best they promised to offer? This country is frustrating I swear!!!!!!!
The whole thing looks like going to school is a waste of time,money n energy,i think we go to school to provide jobs for lecturers as well in Nigeria, everything is going in circles becos there is no degrading jobs dat graduates are not doing again
This will kill the reading culture in Nigeria, why will u study when u know u will later become conductor.. Must it be graduates
This will kill the reading culture in Nigeria. How will u study when u knw u will later end up as conductor,. Must it be graduates .. Ambode is doing the good thing in the wrong way
Idle not idol
They should enrol the existing conductors for grooming/training. This is a further insult to Nigerian graduates and their educational institutions.
I will rather remain jobless than be a bus conductor. What nonsense! So i spent millions of naira paying school fees in the university only to end up as a bus conductor with a salary of 50k? This had better be a joke. Rubbish!
No bus abroad get conductor not even a 14 seater bus. Unless maybe na Ghana be your abroad.
What a shame on Lagos State, what a big shame on Nigeria!!! After going through the hell Nigerian youths go through to pass exams, gain admission, study under terrible conditions, graduate and get good humiliation for serving their fatherland with hopes of a brighter future, is this what they get for being born and bred in Nigeria, and located in Lagos. What an insult our the psyche of the Nigerian youth.
If I were the Lagos State Government, I would rather disburse N600,000 cash to each graduate to embark on entrepreneurial activities after signing them up with Fate Foundation or any other where they can learn basic principles of Business before setting out and I assure you that in 5-10 years time, Lagos State and Nigeria would be better off.
The Lagos State Government should rather employ experience Danfo bus drivers and train them to take of this responsibilities, while it concentrates on building future leaders in business and industry who would take over in the next generation. All these people demeaning our youths had great opportunities thrust at them during their time not this sort of insult. How many of them can comfortably allow their "abroad" returned children who serve their fatherland from overseas and only wear the NYSC uniform on Passing Out Parade days just to collect the Certificate, serve as bus conductors?
If I were any Lagos or Nigerian youth, I would rather focus on helping myself rather than wait for the government. They have eaten the future of our youths and have no concrete plans for them today or tomorrow. Haba, what has Nigeria degenerated into? How did we get here? What shameless insult is this?
Lagos and Nigerian graduates are intelligent and if given the same opportunities and conditions as their counterparts, can achieve even far better. How can I develop my brain and you wake to employ me for N50,000? What can that buy in the local grocery market of today? How much is the shoe on government officials legs, how much do they spend on their girlfriends, mistresses and concubines? We are talking of men and women in the prime of their youth, who should be thinking of settling down in marriage and raising a family for crying out loud? Who will save Nigeria from this mess?
The incumbent Governor is a product of the Hubert Humprephrey Fellowship, did he get that on the platform of menial jobs? What is the crime of our youths? Is it a crime to be born and located in Nigeria? Is it when all our youths relocate abroad that reality will set in for our leaders? You flaunt affluence and ask them to drive buses to survive, they will but be assured that very soon, all armed robbers will be certificate carrying graduates... Selah
