Who Says Our Economy Is Booming When More Than 40 Million Youths Are Jobless? by IbileIfe: 2:35pm On Feb 25, 2015
[size=14pt]The economy of a country cannot be booming when it cannot create more jobs for the jobless.
That is why the bogus claims of President Goodluck Jonathan and his cabinet that our economy is booming are contrary to the facts on current socioeconomic realities in Nigeria with more than 40 million Nigerian youths unemployed and thousands losing their jobs as financial institutions and manufacturing industries are sacking more than they are employing.

The following reports are enough verdict on the Nigerian economy.

The number of unemployed Nigerians is enough to form a whole country if not more... I keep wondering if the country is under curse.
