Buhari Says He Will Not Pay N5000 To Unemployed Nigerians by RingimKabir(m): 7:35am On Feb 28, 2016
In a shocking development, President Muhammadu Buhari has revealed that he will refuse to honour his pledge to grant N5000 to each unemployed Nigerian.

He made the remark while speaking in Saudi Arabia as he continued his visit to the Middle East over the weekend.

Buhari said he would rather focus on funding the construction of infrastructure, as well as education, agriculture and mining to create employment opportunities for able bodied young men.

President Muhammadu Buhari may lose considerable support due to his announcement

“This largesse N5,000 for the unemployed, I have got a slightly different priority,” the president said.

“I would rather do the infrastructure, the school and correct them and empower agriculture, mining so that every able bodied person can go and get work instead of giving N5,000 to those who don’t work.”

The pledge to jobless citizens was one of the pillars of Buhari’s All Progressives Congress (APC) election campaign last year and will likely be met with a furious reaction by voters.
