68 Million Nigerian Youths Are Jobless by gfus: 10:19pm On Aug 18, 2011
The Ministry of Youth Development is to partner with selected ministries to create jobs for the 68 million confirmed jobless Nigerian youths.

Mr Bolaji Abdullahi, the Minister of Youth Development, made this known on Thursday in Abuja when he visited Dr Akinwunmi Adesina, his counterpart in the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development.

He said the collaboration was necessary to save the future of the country.

He explained that for his ministry to address the challenges posed by youth unemployment, there was the need to explore opportunities and create the platform that would assist the Nigerian youth to secure jobs and become independent.

He said that reason underscored the need for a strong partnership between his ministry and that of agriculture.

“The 68 million population of Nigerian youths is three times the population of Ghana, the next most populous country in West Africa.

“God forbid, if anything happens to this huge population of people, the entire West Africa is in trouble.
