"Microbiology is a beautiful and promising course. It's just unfortunate that it's not respected and taken seriously in Nigeria. Microbiology is in everything - health, production, forensics, food etc. We just need to support the NSM to professionalise the course and we're good."

Woman laments that all her kids are graduates but have no job

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a jobless mum of three with a master's degree had lamented that all her children despite being graduates have no job.

The single mother of three, a boy and twin girls is currently a PhD student at Kenyatta University but has been unable to complete it due to a lack of fees.

The woman named Consolata revealed that she has been a part-time lecturer since 2013 but has no stable income because Kenyan universities don't pay on time.

"I am a Human Resource officer by profession pursuing a PhD in Business Administration; HR option. I have an MBA, Bachelor of Business Administration from KEME, a Higher Diploma in Human Resource from RTI, and a Diploma in Business Administration from Kabete Technical," she said.
