Nigerian youths seeking admission into universities have been strongly advised by popular Anambra-based cleric, Prophet Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere, popularly known as Pastor Odumeje or “indaboski” to avoid studying certain courses he described as useless..CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
“These are useless courses. What are you doing with them?” he asked, urging prospective students to rethink their choice of study to avoid wasting time and resources.
Pastor Odumeje is well-known across Nigeria for his dramatic and unconventional style of preaching and miracle performances. His bold and sometimes controversial statements often attract significant public attention, making him one of the most talked-about religious figures in the country. Beyond his spiritual influence, he recently declared his ambition to contest the 2027 presidential election, promising a new era of digital and modern governance if elected.
In a viral video shared on social media on Monday, June 2, 2025, Pastor Odumeje addressed university admission seekers, warning them against choosing certain academic courses. He singled out political science, history, microbiology, library information science, and sociology as courses that offer little value, especially for students from poor backgrounds. “All these poor people, if your father does not have any connection in politics or government, don’t go to school and begin to study political science, history, microbiology and sociology. These are useless courses. What are you doing with them?” he stated emphatically.
According to the cleric, pursuing these courses is a waste of time and money that could instead be invested in learning practical skills like barbing. He argued that education should translate into wealth and meaningful opportunities, implying that these “useless” courses contribute to unemployment challenges in Nigeria. “Only meaningful courses can make education a blessing in the family,” he added, stressing that his role as a prophet includes guiding young people to make decisions that will positively impact their futures.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
