Esseite:


What breaks me is in all that was said, did not see a single sentence where the govt stated what it's doing about it critically.

Because the blog is only interested in negative news just like you.

By the time buhari will leave in 2023, we will know the scores by then.

Chris Ngige, Nigeria's Minister of Labour and Employment who spoke yesterday at the opening of a two-day workshop on Breaking the Resilience of High Unemployment Rate in the Country in Abuja, revealed that Nigeria’s unemployment rate is expected to reach 33.5% by 2020.Ngige who confirmed that the data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBC) shows that Nigeria's unemployment rate could reach 33.5 percent by 2020, added that the high unemployment rate of 23.1 percent and underemployment of 16.6 percent by the National Bureau Statistics (NBS) of 2019 report is a source to worry.

He said; “It is a worrisome status as the global poverty capital (World Bank, 2018); and concomitant high prevalence rate of crimes and criminalities, including mass murders, insurgency, militancy, armed robbery, kidnappings, drug abuse, among others.

“As if this situation is not scary enough, it is projected that the unemployment rate for this country would reach 33.5 percent by 2020, with consequences that are better imagined, if the trend is not urgently reversed."

Part 2- business/economy

Where are the positive news?
Is it in quality of life, security, infrastructure, national unity, or where?

Or is the positive news the growing size of tinubu's bank account?

Exactly what I said about you.

That's all you want and that's all you would ever get.

A labour minister just said 33.1% projection

And he is "shining teeth".

Sai Buhari

Mr minister, why did unemployment rise under your care did it makes you make a good minister?

Esseite:

You are fixated on the negative.

It's a workshop.

They must discuss the facts and present the solutions being put in place.

If you were honest, you'd realise the population explosion is largely responsible for this humongous figure.

If families and respective governments had woken up to these issues, it would have been better handled today.

Great... now we are talking, so what has govt done to enact laws to curb population explosion?...

This is what our leaders should be conversing and pushing for, but if you don't highlight the consequencies as the minister has done rather than tagging it negative news, how then would it come to front burner discussions?

The blogs and social media just like Nairaland, and not a few members of the forum, tend to overlook context.

Could it be in a 2 day workshop on employment that the only point raised is about the %age of the unemployed?

And that's why I've come to the conclusion that many love negative news and surely negative news they would get.

"We're now getting jobs.
"We're now making money."

"Clap for yourself. You may continue to await thy rainy season.

My words.
