shared photos of his certificates online with the name Kawu Malami, showing he
graduated from the University of Maiduguri.
He claimed to be selling water
in Taraba state for a leaving since he couldn’t secure a government job.
Below are some of the comments we picked under the Twitter
post;
A tweeter user said he should acquire a skill, and not expecting
government job as a birth right.
@teekaylife: ”
Ask him to be skilled and specialised in a particular area. Many of us hold
more than this certificate in d southwest…we are doing fine with our
skill….govt job is not birth right of the North if that’s what you’re pushing
for him.”
A tweeter user with the username
@Yunusatankao, has blamed him for not being productive in the state despite the
vast land available there.
@Yunusatankao: “Please how can
I be a graduate in such a field n be pushing water trucks. His profession
requires he’s on a farm working n doing small research. There are many farms in
taraba dat will need his services. He shudnt disgrace degree holders especially
in dat field please. Haba!”
Other
tweeters users has used the opportunity to express themselves, stating “please I
need government job too".
@Micon247: ” Be like say I go
go find wheel barrow before una go know say I need government job for this
country. Please whoever is helping him,
I Sha know say Hausa people get
connections well well for govt.
Please I need a govt Job too, I
studied political science.”
Another user said
the problem has emanated from the government, and that if the government has been
functional his field “would have been heavily sought after”.
@Obi_offor: ” If our system had
been functional, agricultural and environmental resources engineering graduates
would have been heavily sought after in Taraba considering the abundant natural
resources/ agricultural potentials of Mambilla Plateau. We must move from
consumption to production.”
