Education is not the only key to success anymore, then we all be believe that, if we don't go to school, we can't make it, the country is something else, we should find all means to be a successful person in life, education is good, but we have to find all means to make it, country which a graduate is riding bike, someone that spend thousands of naira to go to the school, is now riding bike, imagine,
So is always good to invest in once self, than working under someone, which you won't have time for yourself,
Just an advise
Education is key to success, however to really have the biggest springboard in life you need to mix it in with a few other ingredients. You ideally need a stable home when growing up with decent routines in place, even things like getting food on a regular basis is important. Being able to attend classes properly is key, because missing a few can really leave large gaps in your knowledge. Having a good higher education system or even things like apprenticeship courses which teach hands on training is important, because people learn better in different ways. You might also need funds to pay for things like additional tutoring, supplies for school and even things like transport all get rather expensive.
