Need for skill acquisition

 Skill acquisition is the act of using the intellectual mind to acquire the ability of creativity in a respective field.

Skill acquisition has shown its importance in this generation since unemployment and low income rate is prevailing.


The world economy is depreciating drastically and it's also getting difficult to get a job that  pays well, on the other hand it's also getting difficult for employers to pay all their employees. In such a situation they'll be left with no other choice than to reduce the number of workers they have by sacking them, then multitask the rest. This also comes with low salaries and stressful working hours. It's proving difficult for someone in such a situation to get a standard living. At the same time, they can't quit their job because they'll rarely get a better one. Also in the same scenario, the sacked ones won't be earning at all and will rarely succeed with getting a better one. 

This is where skill acquisition comes into play. Most of these people go ahead to acquire new skills and then monitise it. When this is done, they'll even discover that with little stress, they earn much more than the were being paid.

Skill acquisition is very essential in this generation because it gives financial liberty and independence. It also gives the opportunity to become a self boss and daily high earner. Skill acquisition has also helped to combat unemployment and has increased capitalism and industrialism among citizens.

We’re yet to have any meaningful engagement with Federal Government over strike, says ASUU

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has disclosed that it was yet to have any meaningful engagement with the Federal Government since the union embarked on an indefinite strike. The university teachers, had on March 23, 2020, embarked on strike in protest against government’s directive for members to join the integrated payroll and personnel Information System (IPPIS), payroll software mandated for all public officials. The Federal Government had last year directed that all its employees should be enrolled under the IPPIS scheme by December 31 or their salaries would be withheld. The directive did not go down well with ASUU members and they never failed to make it known to their employers. Few days to the deadline, some ASUU members were said to have secretly enrolled on the platform, while some others, especially their leaders, refused to join. All efforts to persuade them failed; rather they embarked on two weeks warning strike. The national president o
