In this period of economic melt down when graduates can no longer feed well let alone wear good clothing nor live comfortably. Joblessness has frustrated many graduates that they publicly constitute nuisance in the society.
Without wasting time, below are the nuisance being constituted by some graduates due to joblessness.
1. Political Thuggery
Many will agree with me that many graduates, out of survival, become APC/PDP tyrants causing riot and snatching ballot boxes during election just because of the meager some antagonistic politicians have promised them. This often makes me wonder the kind of graduates our institutions are churning out every year.
2. They Become Fake Pastors
As barbaric as it sounds, some graduates suddenly turn themselves to pastors in a bid to scam gullible Christians. These people normally consult native doctors for magical powers to perform miracles that are nearly impossible . This is to increase their fan base because the more the size of the congregation, the more the tithes and offering they will load into their pockets
3. Fraudulent Activities (Yahoo Yahoo, 419, gbaju e)
Another public nuisance exhibited by some graduates is that they engage in fraudulent activities such as 419, yahoo yahoo, etc. Recently, some of them try to gather as many phone numbers as possible on facebook and will start sending bulk SMS essay telling people that their ATM cards have been deactivated due to failure to activate their BVN, and that they should send their account details to reactivate it.
4. Smoking Marijuana on the Streets
I know that many will agree with me that some Nigerians institutions are known to be churning out thugs and cultists in the society. When these people graduate from school and can't get jobs, you will see them smoking marijuana in the society. This display of public nuisance is very common with graduates of OOU.
5. Prostit'ution
After school, some ladies go into prostitution school just to meet their basic needs. They carry this operation out by posting all tempting and half unclad pictures on social media just to catch the attention of interested chairmen.
6. Fighting in public over irrelevant things
Sometimes of them will vent their frustration on innocent people who are not responsible for the predicament. I once witnessed a scene when a guy was beating a girl because she failed to greet him. You won't believe he went as far as using his corper belt after POP to flog this lady just to show that he had served
7. Snatching people's phones at night
Some of them pick pocket at night due to joblessness after which they will sell anything they stole at ridiculous prices just to feed
8. Fighting At Vendor Cubicle
As job no dey, some will wake up very early in the morning and will head to the nearest vendor shouting at the top of their voices just to discredit Buhari as a bad leader when they can't even mange their own lives appropriately let alone managing a whole nation.. This public nuisance is very common with political fanatics when they can't get jobs
9. Causing Commotion at Parties
Since job no dey, some of them attend parties they're not invited and will even be fighting for Gulder, Star and schnapps. Some even attend masquerade festivals, marriage receptions and yam festivals and will be fighting for food.
10. They Become Beggars
Some will come up with touching stories that they were lecturers before they had cancer. You're likely to come across them in Oshodi and Ijana-Ipaja Park
I drop my pen at this juncture
