To be sincere I seriously doubt this present statistics!
What parameters where used and how did they conduct their survey given that Nigeria has no accurate data capturing system as well as population biodata registry.

A state not ravaged by war, insurgency or high insecurity been the state with highest unemployment rate?

Something doesn't add up, I've been following these statistics and it doesn't make sense to any sane mind that's very much aware of our present social, societal and economic realities.

These figures and statistics are highly skewed.

God help Nigeria.

ODVanguard:
Just watch as the same people that reject NBS stats when it doesn't favour them will change gear.

Chijeep:
Like I always say, Nigerians are different and politicians are different. That why one woman said she distributed palliative to the whole states by herself.

Samfloxin:

But those northern states you are referring to are fully engaged in agriculture. Employment doesn't have to be only in industries.

DigitalyYours:
Hmmmm

Where are getting all these figures
Or someone will be in Abuja cooking figure?

Sagay212:
There is high rate of employment everywhere in Nigeria. But our developer brothers and their everyday chest beating will make you thing they are all billionaires in the ipob republic.

Vyzz:
Let me take my sit....



And wait for one guy

Anazp:
do you think self employment wasn't factored into the data? There are different forms of employment so self employment is one must them and must have been factored in by the NBS

gwafaeziokwu:
Imo has the highest rate of unemployment in Nigeria, While Anambra state has the lowest rate of unemployment in Nigeria.

Why is the Imo state news on the front page while that of Anambra is not.

Jwonder:
Apc state!! Nothing new

Unemployment rate keeps raising, some Nigerians lost their ability to reason and voted in a 3 time coup plotter, whose supporters killed Nigerians in 2011.

Anything we see, make we take am like that, actions have consequences.


Btw I don’t believe this statistics, because the unemployment rate in Imo can’t be higher than Jigawa and several northern states with no industry or companies and with a higher population.
PS: i did my nysc in the north and i know what I’m taking about.

Gabe427:
considering the way Nairaland comments work...

we all know this thread was moved to front page for Tribal Bashing and Bigotry....

so what the aim of the " WE SAY No TO SECESSION" bull they claim to stand for ...

I'm Yoruba and by No means would i take part in claiming one region is worse than the other.

The entire country is suffering unemployment. the entire country is suffering in every aspect. don't divert from the issue

Drops mic ....exits

Buhari2023:

Mariopgomery:
Imo state? I strongly disagree with this findings, I'm not from imo state but I've been around Nigeria and zamfara state should be number one followed closely by all other northern states.
