3 States With The Highest UNEMPLOYMENT Rates In Nigeria by abc115: 6:40pm On Oct 27, 2018
Is there a reason why the 3 States with the highest UNEMPLOYMENT rates in Nigeria, according to @nigerianstat data (2017), are PDP States?

Rivers: 41.8% unemployment
Akwa Ibom: 36.6%
Bayelsa: 30.4%

Those 3 (+ Delta) also happen to collect the highest oil revenues in Nigeria.

And they are all PDP states and collect relatively higher allocations than most other states. Wike, Udom, and Dickson need to do more. undecided

I think the issue isn't all about non availability of jobs in those state but that most of the youths in those areas prefer not to work but look for meal ticket illegally.

I guess we can also have the list of 10 states with the highest killings. Let's see if one PDP State will be there.
I rather be alive unemployed than to die in the hands of murderers due to insecurity

As long it's a Tolu Ogunlesi that said this, I'll ignore the rubbish. When did Tolu's and more or less APC supporters speak the truth?

The reason Lagos is the most developing/most developed state in Nigeria is that PDP has never ruled it before.

PDP is synonymous with failure and poverty.
Re: 3 States With The Highest UNEMPLOYMENT Rates In Nigeria by socialmediaman: 9:42pm On Oct 27, 2018
So what happened to the 2 Million Jobs Annually that Buhari and APC promised Nigerians? Maybe they were so massive that NBS could not capture them...

The illiterates are at it again.
Those states are oil producing states which means that a large portion of the population can't farm.
Remove farming from the other states(except Lagos) and they will all be even.

He supported his claim with a source, please back your own different claim with credible source(not from IPOB Bureau of Statistics).

And saying the SW states other Nigerians come in droves for a greener pasture will top unemployment list is ridiculous.

Nobody move to SW states in droves, people migrate to Lagos which is the economic capital of Nigeria, Lagos was built by FG, British and Nigerians, Lagos is not even part of Western Nigeria in the Nigeria constitution. Lagos was built the same way Abuja is been build now pumping heavy resources into it as they did for Lagos for almost 30 years.

I never and would never support those governors and if not that you just refused to comprehend my comment, you'll have deduct that. I'm only saying apart of those irresponsible governments in those zones, some of those youths don't want to work too. I've been to delta, rivers and bayelsa and I know what I'm talking about...though obviously not all choose laziness BTW.
