UNEMPLOYMENT AND HON SIR AZUKA OKWUOSA MEASURE TO CROP UNEMPLOYMENT RATE IN ANAMBRA

BY Nwabufo Irene

Unemployment is one of the major problem faced by majority of Anambrains which has great implication on their lives.

The term unemployment donote to a situation whereby able bodied people willing to work find it difficult to secure a job
.
Anambra unemployment rate was at level of 10.8% in 2010, raised to 16.8% at the previous year,2020, 13.1% rated as the state with lowest unemployment rate but as a state we are not satisfied with the figure.

We need a better Anambra where our youths are all gainfully employed

It saddened that young people are those that are worst affected

Study stated that almost half population of Anambra is made up of youths, defined as individual between the age of 15 to 34 years of age.

Here,I will like to outline several factors that maybe blamed for the prevalence of unemployment in Anambra.

The key causes are bad governance,high level of corruption among our leaders and failure of our government to perform their constitutional duties.These corrupted leaders mismanaged public funds and resources supposed to be used for creation of job opportunities for the people while our youths walk from place to place in search of one job and another.

Other factors that contributed to unemployment are lack of quality education,lack of infrastructure,non attractive agricultural sectors,lack of employable skills and experience, recession,rapid population growth among others

Many steps applied by political leaders in addressing unemployment in our state are rather ineffective and unable to tackle unemployment rate.

One thing is to identify problems but another is to provide a lasting solution to those problems.

To overcome the problem of unemployment Hon Sir Azuka Okwuosa blueprint stands to provide a lasting solution to the challenges of unemployment by:

1.creating and maintaining skill acquisition program and scholarship. Skill training is an important way of investing in our youths because the skills they will acquire will help them to be both publicly and self employed.

2.creating of massive industries and infrastructure and industrial friendly environment

3. Provision of attractive Agriculture sector:in agriculture, his main focus will be on agro allied industrialization which will provide the missing link between farming and industrialization through agro allied industrialization, he will also invest heavily in preservation of agricultural products, modernize farming by setting up an agricultural mechanization agency, partner with all the universities in Anambra to set up an agricultural research institutions in the state, establishment of low cow rache to help our diary needs and establishment of fertilizer plants in Anambra.

4. Reformation of education system to produce skilled graduates, innovators and entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs education shall also be included in our educational institutions

5. He will remove corruption and bad governance,change the faces of Anambra and bring back development, transparency and strengthen institution for good governance and rule of law.His leadership shall be a transe through which total transformation will take place in Anambra.

Zukky for the people!!

Zukky for a better Anambra!!!

Zukky for governor Anambra state 2021!!!
