Legit.ng journalist Ridwan Adeola Yusuf has over 9 years of experience covering basic and tertiary education in Nigeria and worldwide.

FCT, Abuja - Popular Nigerian social media influencer, Reno Omokri, has said the best courses to read at university "that will not end up as curses for you" are the STEM courses.

Legit.ng reports that STEM stands for science, technology, engineering and mathematics and refers to any subjects that fall under these four disciplines.

In a post on his verified X (formerly Twitter) handle on Tuesday, February 4, Omokri explained that disciplines that are very reliant on empathy and a human-to-human connection are among the best courses.

He claimed that people need to understand that more people are leaving the accountancy profession every year than entering it.

Omokri tweeted:

"Please fact-check me: In 2022, America lost 300,000 out of its 1.6 million accountants, whereas only 47,000 new accountants joined the profession. That ought to tell you that accountancy is on its way to becoming like Latin, a dead language.
