chudidonas:No not by 69 % several factors are responsible for the drop in employment. 1. No governmental direction yet. 2. The few achievements under the past administration have been eroded by lack of follow up. 3. The new found austerity in government. 4. According to the nations article of yesterday. The government is a one man show. No one not even some of those you think should know. 5. Continued propaganda even after election thereby scaring investors etc. Friend we should really begin to pray for our leader. |

Change is here! Jobs for ICPC, EFCC and Northerners only! So, 2million jobs is still feasible. |

For anyone that has ever tried to stop a moving object and force it in the opposite direction they understand the necessity of firm footing. The new government is planting their feet to push things back on course. We are all suffering but this is a temporary pain for a long term gain. It shall be well with us. Naija Up! |
