Meet Dr. Enyi Paul, A PhD Holder Who Still Earns 70K As A Cleaner Because Ebonyi State University Refused To Convert His Services

Dr Enyi Onyebuchi

It has been revealed that a Nigerian man, Dr. Enyi Onyebuchi Paul with PhD works as a cleaner at Ebonyi State University (EBSU) in Abakaliki.
This is despite holding three academic degrees, including a PhD in Mathematics Education.

The story was brought to public attention by Odo Godfrey Chikwere, a journalist with Legacy 95.1 FM in Abakaliki.

Dr. Enyi, who hails from Ikelegu Ishieke in the Ndiabor community of Ebonyi Local Government Area, reportedly started his job at the university in 2007 as a cleaner/messenger.

Over the years, he diligently pursued his education, earning a Bachelor of Science (BSc), a Master of Science (MSc), and ultimately a Doctorate (PhD) — all from the same institution where he remains in a menial role.

In a social media post, Odo expressed concern over Dr. Enyi’s situation, highlighting the stark contrast between his academic qualifications and his current position.

“This is Dr. Enyi Onyebuchi Paul. He got a job at Ebonyi State University in 2007 as a cleaner/messenger. He struggled to see himself through university education in the same school, earning a PhD in 2022,” Odo wrote.

He lamented that despite earning the highest academic qualification, Dr. Enyi still earns less than N70,000 a month in a position far below his qualifications.

Izzi big men, this is one of your brothers with PhD earning 70,000 a month in EBSU. I ran into this guy’s case, he is a PhD holder in Mathematics Education earning less than 70,000 per month in EBSU. This guy’s case should be an embarrassment to any Izzi man he approached for assistance but they turned him down,” Odo added.

Efforts by Legit.ng to reach both Dr. Enyi and Odo for further comment are ongoing.
