PointB:

What are they employed as? What work would they be doing?

Ileke-IdI:

Just 20k?

Wherever. As long as they make a honest living.
Could be bricklaying for all we care.
Too far off to be picky.

PointB:

Meaning they could as well be paid for doing nothing?

aloy/emeka:

If 20k jobs are not big, how many did Ekiti create?.

omobadan:

Why are people antagonising the move? At least, they're getting them off the unemployment queue. They'll be getting paid won't they? Let's be optimistic sometimes as a people. We have to learn how to be patient and see where whatever initiatives the government has come up with, will go. We can't continue to be negative all the time!

aloy/emeka:

Don't mind them as if they have jobs for those who gained the employment.

asha 80:

is this not the same ajimobi that was crying earlier that he cannot pay the new minimum wage?

aloy/emeka:

What has it gotta do with the fact that he took 20k youths off the streets?

Funkymallam:

Employed to do what and to be paid how much? Smh

OYES = YES O . . .

20k adults employed to sweep the streets and paid 10k each abi. So much for employment

jmaine:

^
How would they give you a call when the process is on going . . .btw, have you applied . .

alj_harem:


DUDDDDEEEEE haba how can you say that

Where you not here when FG started YOUWIN. How much jobs or money has that given the youths of Nigeria ? do you care to answer

YOUWIN was a 50 billion Naira
project by the FG to provide Jobs for the Youths of this country. How many jobs as that provide, they keep extending the deadline etc, why

the original dead line was 20 November today is 2nd of december, still no one on Nairaland has gotten a call be or reply.

So this compare to that is a case of "half a bread is better than none"

This is the half bread.

20,000 naira is better than 0 naira and promises.

Funkymallam:

Aboki na relax, u and this your YouWin sef, @least u knw ppl dat v applied, let watch and see what comes out of it.
As for Ajimobi n co with bogus claim of unverifiable employments just lyk Ohakim once claimed he employed 10k youths and Orji's claim of 50k jobs, all political stunts.
He should tell us what they are employed to do and hw much they are being paid for easy verification.

alj_harem:

nope but i know those that applied

btw, if the process is still going on with postponements, then who are we to make fun of a 20,000 naira job ?



A bird in hand is way better than 10 birds in the bush. I am sure you know what am talking about

jmaine:

This tactics won't change the facts that this is  just a cheap shotz at  screaming job employment when there is none . . a method that has being jettisoned by other states who experimented with this  cos it amounts to nothing on the long run . . .


Youwin , though i frown on the low allocation of 1,200 would have more impacts that this so called 20,000 jobs[b] if[/b] properly implemented and the man - know - man infection is reduced . . .

Youwin is still an on going project . .sheathe your bullets until they are done . . . no use shouting for prove when the process has not ended . .cos you have been on this even before their first extension . .so your motive is wrong bruv . . .

alj_harem:

sorry for the lash out, I though you were complaining because he gave people 20,000 Naira jobs. Now I see your point.

@ bolded, i agree

we need verification so to be sure is not just another political stunt. these politicans self lol

my brother, that youwin thing is paining me o . It would even pain me more if it was a scam.

The youwin scheme showed that our government lack indept understanding of the masses phycology and how people are in desperate need for Proper jobs not hand outs.

50 billion Naira invested to Innoson cars or any other indigenous company would GO A LONNNGGGG WAY to reduce unemployment.

Take a look at globacom, dangote, danjuma groups, coscharis, etc All these are indigenous companies nd have employed thousands of young graduates, I bet the same could be done to other indigenous companies.

All in all, it is already done, all we can do now is to hope he works.
