HARDDON: the
earlier the better youths wake up and think up ideas.

mentally develop THEMSELVES and instead of seeking for government aids
and employments, help the government create jobs.

why seek employment when you can be an employer?

shake off the dust off your feet, dare to dream, arise out of thy
comfort zone and make jobs available.

for on the shoulders of most of us lies the destinies of a multitude yet
unborn. we cant afford to fail them because government didnt feed us with
its pence and crumbs.

for a fact, civil servant job is the least kinda job anyone with a
dream and sole passion, would seek for.

for a lot have lost their bearings in such terrains. how cud a young and
dynamic soul be subjected to the monotonous merging of meaningless days
and be able to fulfill his potentials? no challenge, no targets, you
wake up, go to work whenever you feel like, close whenever, then you
grow old and retire, then start queuing up for gratuity that would never
come? OH WHAT A PITY!

ARISE OH NIGERIAN YOUTHS, FOR NOW IS OUR TIME!

shadrach77: is the light skinned pilot hubby of omotola, captain ekehinde part of the list?

idupaul:

Exactly why they deserve to be unemployed , anybody that will spend ten million Naira to become a pilot in a country that has less than 50 planes flying its commercial airspace has himself to blame ..All of them went in there not because they had a passion to fly but because they heard pilotsa are well paid .. Do U know 10 million will set up an SME that will grow in a few years to becaome another Dana and from there like dana they can even open an airline like Dana.. Besides piloting is a global practice , if there is no demand for their service in Nigeria they can apply @ Lufthansa, BA and some other airline in Ukraine because what Nigeria needs for now are youths with Ideas that create Jobs for those who can't think up solutions and not some overated pilot career

ITbomb: I'm still waiting to see an unemployed Doctor

sayit_out1: They should join the Nigeria Airforce before they waste.

dolphinife: Some of us are talking out of ignorance. For a pilot to cough out about 10million naira just to be a pilot, do you think its easy? Moreover, pilot is very different from degree, we are talking of practical aspect.

You hardly find an unemployed pilot in any country. If not that our airlines are opting for expratriates, all those 170 wou have got a job.

For your information, the more a pilot stays at home, the more he becomes a sky-risk to flight. Since the job is about practical, a pilot must always fly every now and then or else, be expecting an air crash soon.

Infact, no pilot suppose to stay a day at home.....they are different from your yeye certificate una dey carry all about

amaks: @ all unemployed pilots. Must they end up flying? If flying is not producing the forth coming jobs now, can't u do something else? Like other educated people? Pls learn to be humble, don't hold ur head up too high, u will be d one to suffer it if ure not working or making some income, no one else. How many aircraft do we have in nigeria? U don't expect airlines to employ more than they need. Some indeginoeus pilots are getting jobs, eg in arik, aero, n co. & nigerian trained pilots are also getting jobs in international airlines. Better stop whining & complaining & look for how to progress ur life. Somebody, I guess a pilot, was insulting other professions, I just pity u. That attitude will get u nowhere. If engineers didn't even design & maintain d aircraft ure dreaming of flying, will u even get a job? Not to talk of all other professions involved. Some of them even earn more than pilots. Aviation industry is international, so u can't rule out expertriates. Govt has an expatriate quota, & d airlines meet it.
Its a general unenployment thing affecting all proffessions, worldwide. Don't just sit & wait for govt, be having other plans too, or else u'll be disappointed. & dontlook down on other proffesions. Many other proffesions are far also important, to humanity.

jimmysho: I dont think you know the meaning of expatriates. for your education, it means somebody working outside his country of origin usually a professional. so, If those nigerian pilots should get job outside our shores, they will be made reference to as expatriates

amaks: @ flyinnaija. Good points. I agree with u. A thorough investigation into that will help. The expertriates shouldn't be taking all d jobs we nigerians can do, and there should be a succession plan. But our fellow nigerians should also realize that the size of the industry now can't absorb all of them, that's reality. & that happening in all sectors, not just in aviation. Ur argument makes more sense, unlike dolphin who is arguing based on how much they spent on training, & insulting other proffessions. In some other professions or institutions, students spend more than that on training, & they are also jobless now too. Too bad. May God help us & help our leadres do d right thing, & help d youths think too.

cash247: Seriously.....? Do they know how many engineers are unemployed?

amaks: @ trolling. Yea we all pray n hope for Gods intervention, but u guys should use ur brain too, & think! God won't help people who don't try to help themselves! think right! Be in the real world. Think realistic solutions & contributions with the facts on ground, logical analysis, & not just blind pointless arguments.
