School is a scam syndrome which started few years ago is gradually taking a center stage among Nigerian youths. These youths believes that school has never helped anybody by saying ‘who school don help?’, ‘school na scam’ and other anti-school slogans. With the rise of Yahoo Boys, Get- Rich-Quick syndrome and the onslaught of Artificial Intelligence, many youths are actually wondering if school is actually a scam. Many of them wonder why one should go to school when he can actually join Yahoo boys or go to school and upon graduation discover that there is no job or that robots have taken over the little available jobs. This paper seeks to ascertain if school is actually a scam, investigate if artificial intelligence has in any way contributed to this saying and identify the role of the media in handling this problem. Survey method was used in this research and the paper is hinged on Agenda Setting function of the mass media. Agenda setting function of the mass media is based on the fact that people consider those things reported in the media as important. Findings show that school is not a scam and that the media has a very important role to play in portraying to the Nigerian youths that school is not a scam. The work recommended among others that Nigerian government should provide employment opportunities for the youths as prompt employment after graduation will negate the slogan of school is a scam.
