As we can attest to, we live in a country of difficult and bad economy condition, therefore all hand must get busy and working in other in other to survive. Many students have a handwork or a trade which the use to support themselves, some are into business, some are hairdresses, fashion designers, some are into menial jobs. Which ever works student do, the main purpose is to have a second means for financially income.
