A Nigerian bricklayer identified as @millishield on micro blogging platform, Twitter, has shared a piece of advice for job seeking graduates following his encounter with a trader at the market. @millishield disclosed that he had a quick chat with the trader who had a grinding machine and found out that the individual makes as much as N5000 on a daily basis. He went on to multiply the amount with the numbers of days in the month and discovered the monthly sales could be tagged at N150k.
The bricklayer therefore charged young graduates who are in search of jobs to try and purchase a grinding machine and put it to work.
“I was at the market this morning, had a chat with the owner of the grinding machine…he told me he makes well above 5k per day i was like wahoo.5×30=150k naira per month….what are you waiting for….tweet directed to jobless young graduates. Grinding machine cost less than 50,” he tweeted. Check out his post below:

Mark Zuckerberg once said something… Ideas don't come fully formed… Just start and it will take shape itself. You don't have to run the business likef every market women would.. Polish the idea and show us why you're a graduate, then watch as money flows into your bank akant

God, I hate tweets like this.
This is same logic that your minister of health applied when he said doctors should go and farm.
If Nigeria had a GDP per capita of $5k, people will have blenders in their homes and market grinders will go extinct.
But cause and effect ain't 4 you
