Man heartbroken as he loses job opportunity due to stuttering
Nigerian man emotionally shattered as he recounts how his stuttering (stammering) cost him a job opportunity, despite his intelligence and qualifications.
The unidentified man shared his emotional pain a post he shared to a social media Influencer.
According to him, he had performed below expectation during the interview due to how his stuttering kept hindering him.
He stated that after the interview they hadn’t called him back, and his confidence has been left in tatters.
Further expressing his pain, he remarked that despite being a very intelligent guy, his stuttering has kept him from getting a job.
He urged people to stop making fun of stutters because they have no control of it, and not their fault.

@makana76 said: “Omo just tell them from the start, that your might tend to stammer… After that take your time to answer no rush anything.”
@Afolayantimi asked: “Is a stutter and a stammering both the same thing?”
@chinwe_dmoney advised: “Restrategize. Find a different kind of job that won’t require you speaking much”
