The creation of 774,000 jobs by the Federal Government is an attempt to employ a thousand persons in every community that would be engaged in community service. The jobs are a temporary shift for three months with a stipend of 30 thousand naira per month. It is hoped that the skills learnt in this period could then be utilized by the participants going forwards.

While on Radio Nigeria’s weekly program; Have Your Say, the Minister for State, Labour; Festus Keyamo stated that he has asked the 20 man selection committee in each state to ensure that women are given a higher percentage in the final selections as women are nation builders and primary care givers in our community.

“Our women are usually the ones that can most readily multiply this income by engaging in petty trading to help support their families. Women are often more vested in the raising of their children and sending them to school while it is more apt to see our men using their incomes to consume burukutu (a local alcoholic brew)”

“No one is proud of the abysmal unemployment rates which are simply a consequence of the lack of will of previous governments to position the nation ready for the mass explosion of graduates with the influx of private Universities since the Obasanjo tenure.”

“The past is what it is, but having eaten our future yesterday, the time to plant for tomorrow is today and as such the Buhari/Osinbajo administration is fixated on improving our informal sector ie those jobs that which you do not see their adverts in newspapers via skill acquisition schemes that would lead to the beneficiaries themselves becoming employers of labour.”

“There are 500 line items in our current budget fixated on skill acquisition programs in various ministries and the biggest of these is the N-Power scheme that has begun enrolment for its third phase even as government is looking to absorb those that have just graduated in the month of July, into different MDAs.”

Yes o there should be a preferential treatment for ladies ,women in our society

one of the things that caught my attention is that fact that the FG already met with 6 out of 8 of their demands and also have paid N18.9 billion for hazard allowance, The doctors’ hazard allowance has been increased to N20, 000 from N5, 000. The FG has record 100% in the provision of PPEs. There is sincerity on the part of the government concerning this matter and i think the doctors should do the needful by calling off the strike.
