It's bad that after graduation people don't find jobs that will enable them apply the skill set education has given to them. But the mindset of the some parents needs to be enlightened, for them to understand that educating your child the University level doesn't guarantee automatic employment after school, yes you can be lucky to find good job but there is no certainty. However education is a masterpiece that broaden your sense of reasoning for you understand that you can improvise and create a part way for yourself hence jobs are are not fought coming.

So for me, I would have advised the man to take a chill pill, because that education he has given his children is the greatest empowerment for them to easily navigate through the hurdles of the society and succeed, so with time he will begin to yield the fruit of his labour.
My dear, it's very bad that Nigeria as a country rich in natural resources would be having unemployment issues, I believe at this point we shouldn't be going through such issues and should be competiting with other developing countries in terms economical development but bad governance has corrupt every sector of the country.

 The issues of men in big positions in different industries trying to take advantage of young women even when they qualify for a particular position is getting alarmimg and many young ladies out there are victims but could barely speak up with reasons that they can't risk losing their job, they're also many that are jobless out there cause they refuse to sleep with their employers, it is very uncultured and why it's becoming rampant is because many men are beginning to lack moral values and self discipline.

 That's why it's good for students to acquire skills while they're in tertiary institutions, I've seen people who fall under the jobless category due to some circumstances, people  who are graduates with good graduate who didn't get the white-collar jobs they deserves that are benefiting from skills they acquired, the fact that the government failed to provide job opportunities doesn't mean people should easily give up and remain idle hoping for luck to come their way, nowadays technology has made it easy to acquire good skills and earn well online. Also I want to conclude that because the government has made education a caricature doesn't mean education is a waste, everyone still needs education atleast for more exposure.
