People on steady salary are hardly keeping body and soul. For those who are unemployed and without wages, be honest, how are you surviving?

By stealing from corps and mega churches .


Day time : cultivate on farm some grapes and mushrooms


Night time : code and code till my eyes bleed


I stopped spending unnecessarily, sold tv set, bought a radio, did more of night plan and social bundles, stayed inside and no going outside besides what're you going outside to do if not to receive billing

I harvest from farm and cook, write code and do small LSD or MDMA then I doze off


The goal is to live a simple and easy life even you have money


Take a look at billionaires like El Mencho very low-key guys l

it's not being easy. A graduate with strong 2.1 still unemployed. He barely eat once daily

As for data subscription, some friends do help him with #200 airtime once in a while just to search online and apply for any opening

He said, "I am always on free mode on nairaland through opera mini, Life has not been fair with me that I know. to cap it all, I'm just stuck in the house. No money to move around (Transportation) in search of job"

He wishes God could change his story for good. He told me his getting depressed.

Sarah a 27-year-old young lady, is seen walking the streets around neighbourhood, hands in her pockets, she is wearing a black hoodie, with a dour look on her face.

I approach her and she seems closed off, but we eventually get talking.

Sarah is a graduate of Civil Engineering from one of the country’s finer universities. She has been living with his parents since graduating in 2014. She has never been employed.

Since 2014, I have been unemployed and living with my parents at my age, I get by with the pittance I make through phone and laptop repairs, which I learnt while in school”, she laments.

What I make is not enough to contribute to home bills like electricity and rent. I only have enough to get hair plaited and buy myself some fairly used clothes, aka bend down select.”

According to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), Nigeria’s youth unemployment/underemployment rate stands at 65.4 per cent as at third quarter of 2023

To the rising levels of youth unemployment and underemployment rate in the country, Sarah says she is aware of the trend not because of official numbers but due to the rising crime rate in Abuja, the capital city as well as around other states as well.

“These days, there are kidnappers, robbers, and ritualists all over Nigeria, all of them looking out for victims, so they can make a quick buck, and it is mostly because of the lack of jobs. The country’s wealth is just circling around a select few”, she says, shrugging her broad shoulders. She has contemplated moving to the red light district.

Hunger and depression want to finish me.
Cost of living is expensive and no jobs.
I now know how tough it is to survive as an adult.
I have walked alot of distance applying for jobs. My canvas heel has succumbed to wear and tear. The shoe don really try for me.

No jobs anywhere, the best thing is to solicit for funds and open a shop. Now the problem is raising money,

Just leave your house and integrate with the society, that's when you understand how bad the society is although many are still lucky. May we not run out of luck in our lives


*modified*
Please I see people saying they earn by doing jobs online. Please I am willing to learn. I have been added to many WhatsApp groups but nothing is happening over there.
Please teach me... This is my WhatsApp09067 329 755

Wrong mindset, lack of foresight and selfish decisions by leaders and followers from independence till date has got the nation to this point.

As Nigeria lays her bed, so she will lie on it.

You can’t plant oranges and expect to harvest cocoa. Basic law of nature. Cold reality.

Keep praying to God that things will get better, you go pray tire.

Though things are difficult in Nigeria and all over the world..but Nigerians blames the government for everything.. meanwhile in the US the citizens creates most of the job..
Nigerians complains a lot ... always waiting for miracle instead of legitimately hustling like citizens of abroad....

I feel serious pity for people who are unemployed at this time.

People who are gainfully employed and those who are running their own businesses are really having it tough now so I can just imagine what unemployed people are presently going through sad

We really need to learn how these agbado miscreants are surviving cos non of them are complaining. The dumbest thing they say now is go and learn forex as if the stuff has not been in existence till now. Most of them don't even know about affiliate marketing which is less stressful and more profitable once you identify the right niche. Bunch of empty skulls claiming woke.
