Post-NYSC Struggles: Why Does Life Get So Hard After Service?

I have been wondering why life got so tough after NYSC. Unemployment now bites harder and my days feel bitter and unbearable. In Nigeria today, medicine and pharmacy seem like the only guaranteed routes to good pay. Nurses often earn as little as ₦30,000 monthly, while many lawyers stay jobless without the right connections. I know graduates who regret spending years in university rather than starting a business after WAEC. Right now, I feel stuck but hold on to hope that things will improve.

It's odd how pharmacy and medicine dominate discussions on post-service pay despite growing opportunities in tech and entrepreneurship.

Consider freelancing or online courses to acquire in-demand skills that can open doors while you search for full-time employment.
