A distraught Nigerian woman has taken to social media to make an emotional appeal for employment, stating that she is βgradually getting to my breaking pointβ due to prolonged joblessness.
In a video shared via her personal TikTok page, #Koredudu, on Saturday, the distressed woman made a heartfelt confession about her desperate situation, urging Nigerians to channel the same energy used to spread negative content into helping her secure employment.
βI have a confession to make. I have a confession to make and I think Iβm gradually getting to my breaking point,β she said in the video, her voice laden with emotion.
βIt is not actually easy coming to face the camera but please, the way the same energy people put into making negative things go viral on social media space, please, help me put in this energy,β she appealed.
She expressed deep concern about her psychological well-being, hinting at fears of what might happen if her situation does not improve soon.
βI donβt know what will happen when I get to the peak of my breaking point but I canβt do anything later. I just need a job, please. Iβm begging you guys, please,β she said.
The emotional video has sparked widespread conversations on social media about Nigeriaβs unemployment crisis and the mental health toll of prolonged joblessness, particularly among young Nigerians.
The post quickly resonated with numerous job seekers who flooded the comments section with similar tales of desperation.
