According to her, she spent six years in the university studying mechanical engineering only to become a drink seller.

In her words:

“POV: You studied engineering for 6 years (plus strike) justto sell drinks. Tell us what you studied and what you ended up doing. Saw this trend and decided to jump on it.”

Legit.ng reached out to an engineer, Anderson Onyekwere, who said he doesn't practice engineering but is now into tech.

In his words:

"Nigeria now is not by what you studied in school. You can study accounting and become a farmer. Right now I am into tech. UI/UX design. I have dumped engineering because I couldn't get job at an oil company and I can't do small paying jobs."
