The fact is... We hv corrupt leaders. They can create jobs if they want but they rather steal the money.

Looking at it on the negative side though, I remember I once visited a private school in Benin City and wanted to know what one of the teacher's qualification was and she said, "I has a BS". The question is, is such person employable?

nigerian youth are unemployable

What mineral resources do those countries that you listed below have compared to Nigeria with its massive oil revenues that are pocketed into the bank account of a select cabal of corrupt people at the detriment of the masses? Please dont celebrate mediocrity by stating that Nigeria is a better country in terms of employment compared to the ones that you listed. There is no justification whatsoever for the high unemployment rate and hardship in the country.


You do talk lots of sense my friend.Well stated .

Neglecting Op's typographical error, I must input that there are more reasons for unemployment in the country like the issue of misppropriation of posts especially in jobs that require specialization. More so, it's not greed to have 30k job and still be looking for another one to make up.

the reason for high rate of unemployment in nigeria today is just....


1. GREEDINESS

lack of contemptment is one of the major reason why employment is rarely available in nigeria today. imagine an employee earning #30,000 monthly still fighting for a government work of 15k just because he can do both at a time without a stress,

2. GODFATHERLISM
many qualified youth are denied employment either because someone they know is not there or because nobody their knows him.

3. STINGINESS

in some cases, 1,900 people will be employ for a work that deserve 2,000 employees and save the salary of the 100people for other circumstances they are not even sure of.

4. LACK OF CONTEMPTMENT

one of the major reasons is because even the self employed will said that they are still unemploy

5. BY FORCE LUXURIOUS LIFE
some others will fight for jobs they are not qualify for because it pays better

Pls, what is "contemptment"?

In this country, the way employees collaborate to kill the existing SMEs is alarming. Many won't venture into running a biz because getting a trusted employee is difficult in naija. Even the existing ones who are suposed to work together are forming competitors. We need to change our orientation, walai!
Boils down to government and our bad judicial process. In a sane country, when your staff steals, all you have to do is call police. Police will arrive for free, take the thieving staff to court free and get them punished appropriately.

I don't have to tell you the mess Nigeria is.

There are so many factors working against capital in Nigeria.

Guy all these reason you have given no make sense.

Nigeria is not the only country in this world, anything that happens outside Nigeria affects us too.

For example Saudi Arabia has the laziest youth in the world, because they had so much money, the government employed everyone. they were busy speeding Islam and terrorism.

But today the youth are trying to adjust to global reality. Islamization agenda is no longer on their time table but how to align their economy fast before 2030.

the government are no longer employing new people, government work is difficult to get. the private sector find these Saudi youths unemployable,

Some things you can control, others you can never control. the world is changing fast, don't sit around making excuse, adjust with the times.

Bro you better tell urself the truth and stop whining yourself and your country

Is Nigeria china mate or any first/second world countries mate?...

You need to travel and see things and also see how they turn Nigeria back at the POE

Believing they are potential criminals
just imagine what you just said, whether China na Nigeria mate, when did both countries had their independence? I don't need to travel further because I currently reside in Canada so I see how people call on their government for things we neglect, ve seen where people even sue government sef. so stop telling people not to call on their government for things they should provide.

Ihatemumu:
Some say most Nigerian youths are unemployable,
How can you pay the employable graduates 30k per month?

America spends billions of dollars to fund various innovative companies as well as their educational and research structure is the best in the world, this leads to a competitive environment and massive job creation.

If Nigerians think Americans are God because of their technological advancement, then this is a perfect example of the Giant that would spend his/her time on earth without discovering their true purpose or potentials.


The government has danced to the tune of Britain to the detriment of its own people.
Nigeria has all it takes to be a superpower, but Religion, Greed, Nepotism, wickedness are some of the reasons why 95% would never discover that true potential.

Tani Adewumi is a Nigeria Chess prodigy, which the same Religion almost killed, America discovered his talent as their environment is built for talents to grow, Nigeria is built to kill your talent.

Breaking Nigeria seems to be the best option now, the reason Britain is against this is cause Nigeria is key to Africa, and when Nigeria wakes, Africa and the entire black race would wake too.

Nigeria will never wake. Our leaders are broken. Most of them were house helps for slave masters so it's the way slave masters treated Nigerians with hate that they are treating their own fellow Nigerians. Lying and raping our commonwealth year in year out.

The main reason why we will never wake is that these current broken leaders are already training upcoming broken leaders in their kids and also in the mentorship industry.

Even when we think we finally have a messiah, Tinubu in his grave can just say the combination code and like clockwork, the cabal will come alive and the human in our leader will die. He will become the Devil himself because deep down, he's broken.

I always say that I'm a good person, I love Nigeria and Nigerians and that if I were president, I would do anything to make sure we never live like this but the truth is I have lived in a broken society for so long and even been oriented into the broken systems through schools, churches and civil service. Maybe I'm just a broken leader waiting to happen too and I just don't know it yet. All I need is to hear my cabal code.

It’s make more sense to pay 10 people 10k each than paying one person 100k to do a job.
1. Efficiency
2. Division of labour
3. Everyone goes home with something no matter how small?
Take for example a job from 9-5, if 4 people do 2hrs each and get paid 10k each instead of 1 person getting 100k Monthly. 4 of them have time to work other jobs too if available. It’s better to expect something no matter how small than expect nothing
This is just my opinion

I can teach you how to trade free of charge. Hi me on the WhatsApp link below. Join the link together because if i post it how it will be, i will not be able to post it here.

The government should do more in job creation by creating a more enabling environment such as the provision of the following.
-social security systems for the youths and vulnerables group in the society.
- long-term infrastructural development projects such as sustainable energy grid mix , roads, etc.
- access to investment financing from banks to support enterprise development.
- quality vocational technical and higher education especially in information communication tech.
- business mentorship opportunities.
- zero tolerance to public fund embezzlement. etc.
Let borrow a leaf from China economic growth policy .

Good one
I based in Western part of the US
After my folks retirement we had to relocate at same time just to have good quality life and for security purposes...you think if Nigeria borrow it's self some sense... thousands will relocate? just like my parents... I have dreams while growing up working for the FG...even with all my skills... couldn't secure any which triggered our relocation...

If even Nigeria and china are age mates,
China have laws, rules and regulations and they follow it... mostly sometimes they punish corrupted politicians in a harsh way only for them to maintain a working nation....

Is Nigerian Gov ready for that? And you think they are mates...
How many average or even above average can successfully sue the gov and win in naija...
When all this are not in place...then you can't have a good country..

God bless Nigeria

OP, you forgot to mention that A LOT of Nigerian certificate-carrying graduates are extremely unemployable.

Every organization seek to employ people that will add value and take the organization to the next level.

Imagine employing a graduate that cannot complete a simple short sentence in English language.
