The Nigerian senate have moved the motion for removal of age bracket in recruitment exercise.

The motion was sponsored by Senator Matthew Urhoghide representing Edo South senatorial district.

Senate said the motion will help unburden recruitment requirements and modes to remove undeserved hardship for Job-Seekers in Nigeria.

The Deputy Senate President Like Ekweremmadu urges Government to declare a State of Emergency on Unemployment towards confronting the challenge frontally and radically.

They are also said to invite the Minister for Labour & Productivity to provide insight into Government’s roadmap towards tackling unemployment.

I don't think it's a wise decision.... That means my great grand mother or father can get job.....
They should rather look into years of experience..
My opinion

HAH:
Do they have this power ?

Everywhere in the world there is practice of age restriction as requirement for recruitment, how to you expect a 40 years old man to recruited into the army or police.

Reason for getting people younger is groom them well when their brains can still be moulded, and reason of looking for people that have aged sometimes is to benefit from their experiences.

This is another exercise in futility by the
Senate
