Unemployment means when there is lack of job or no available jobs.



Underemployment means when you are employed but your take home salary is not enough to sustain you or give you a meaningful life, that's underemployment

Underemployment means, you are employed below level of of your certificate/skills


A university graduate employed as OND capacity is under employed, even if his take-home pay is in millions.

People who work in jobs that do not reflect their education level, actual training, or financial needs are said to be underemployed.


In Nigerian context and based on ILO definition, geaduates who work in low paying jobs are underemployed.


If we are to base the definition of underemployment using your own definition, it then means that 99% or more of Nigerians are underemployed including your current CBN Governor who is a graduate of Mechanical engineering. The same applies with almost half of the top bank executives in Nigeria and in so many other sectors. So you see grin

Don't be fooled by social media. Many young people in Nigeria are not in relationships. This includes both male and female genders. It is even worse for people who are above 30 due to so many financial expectations, commitments, bills over bills, poor economy, terrible hard-hitting economic policies by the government, high level of unemployment and inflation. Young people are becoming more withdrawn. There is a fast decline in our social life; I mean how we interact with one another face to face. It will amaze you to know the number of young people who see their electronic gadgets as their partners.

It is pertinent to note that the above mentioned problems have caused a chain reaction in the society where young women now prefer hookup to dating...sex business aka 'If you give me cash, I'll give you the Bermuda Triangle'. You cannot separate poverty/economic hardship from a socially and culturally warped society.

Which way Nigerian youths?




The effect of bad leadership has trickle down to various areas of our society including our social and religious life.


Everything has been monetized, that's why many men hardly engage in relationship ,and the women are complaining bitterly of men not marrying them. You can't blame the men for taking such decision, one finds it difficult to feed himself, talk more of feeding a whole family. My friends who are married are complaining bitterly, it's not easy for most people now o.

once capitalism reach its peak, socialism will emerge. From financial gained oriental relationship position to more feasible sustaining social bond oriental one.

The prevailing orientation will be skewed towards Integrative order for humans. It is a natural order process the that the I'm_ persona male (capitalistic order) should emerged first subsequently followed by the personalistic female (communism).
Socialism ain't coming back ....It's a cheat & Unmotivating ....

What is Coming Next is "Humanistic-Capitalism" not Mere Profit-Geared Capitalism as Ruling Presently ....

It's Obvious Many Human do not have the guts to survive this Fast Changing Techies worlds of Humanities....

The Weak Ones needed to be Helped Without Being Counter-Productive to the Strong Ones ...

Nature is Moving Faster Now Than Before Because We are all Late to the real Assignment Nevertheless, The Slow Ones shall be Helped to also Run Faster But Not Spooned like Socialism would spoil all !

CuriousStudent:

This argument is stale already.i am already tired of saying men and women are judged differently(thanks to patriarchal standards you created).

Surprising how you ricochet from claiming both parties benefit from sex(when you want free sex and to curb hypergamy) to claiming women lose value when they have sex(when it's time to slut sham).
Speaking from both sides of the mouth to achieve different goals.

When you want to slut sham,do you include men to? If both men and women benefit from sex why do you claim that women lose value when they have sex?

Obviously trying to claim "progressive" or "woke" as a means of convincing women to drop their hypergamy and but you are not ready to drop your traditional standards as well.

If you don't like the idea of being the one to invest financially in a relationship,go to the western world were women are independent and they split bills. But mind you, this women will have as much sex experience as you that is a man(which you wouldn't like).

Choose your poison

I believe you know the dynamics of relax but deviously want to cheat your way.

But I will still paste this link for viewers that may be unaware of a man duties

There is no need for posting the female equivalent thread link of the above,since I'm this forum we are all reminded on a daily basis what a woman should be and do

So, basically you're hiding under something. You sounded more like a hypocrite than a rational thinker

It's like the only thing Nigerians talk about is marriage and relationships. Nothing innovative/creative. Anyways, there are several reasons why many young Nigerians are not in a relationship.

1. Economic hardship: The economy is not favoring young Nigerians (especially the men) at all. Many are unemployed, earning low salary, on contract or their businesses aren't doing well. Relationships cost money.

2. Entitlement mentality of Nigerian women: A lot of Nigerian women are entitled. Most see their boyfriends as their second father. They believe that they are entitled to monthly maintenance salary. In a country where the national minimum wage is N30,000, how can such men (who are the majority) afford to keep up?

3. Technology. Technology has diminished relationships amongst young people. Young people are more hooked to their laptops or phones than socializing with others.

4. Social media. Social media, which is a by-product of technology, has destroyed so many relationships. It has made women around the world more materialistic than ever before. This is not specific to Nigerians alone but a global problem. Social media promotes fake materialistic lifestyles that most people cannot sustain. Social media has led to the rise of hook up culture.

5. Too much responsibilities placed on Nigerian men due to culture. Nigerian men are told from a young age that they have to take care of their women. They are told that they are 100R% responsible for taking care of all the finances at home. With that level of responsibility, why won't men stay single? It's better to be seen as lazy, irresponsible than to die as a SIMP. So many men have died before their time due to numerous responsibilities.
