That's why they are making naira fall freely so that those 81% who are not adding value to economy can suffer for not adding value

Another useless talk as usual. Did any Nigeria leader ever make Nigeria an enabling environment for the citizens to grow? Capital No..

You don't give us good and motorable roads.

You don't give us good security of our lives and properties.

Same government still allow thugs, herdsmen, Boko Haram, and many more to be killing us..

You rogues cannot provide good medical facilities for us Nigerians but you jump around enjoying what other leaders provided for their country... Shame on you all.

Wait o

This is simply not true. These people work their ass off. I've witnessed with different tertiary institutions. I think the problem might lie with the too many ghost workers or maybe the government simply don't employ enough. Nigerian universities are over populated - I also have experience with foreign universities
What is not true? Students don't queue as I said? Students don't take receipts to offices for clearance at the end? Students don't visit many offices to get their results?

Ask yourself if government has provided them with the necessary materials and trainings to deliver on their jobs. Do they even have offices and laboratories to work? Okay, is that the reason you have not taken their plight seriously?

This is true about government workers.

Over 90% of the workers in local government secretariats do nothing apart from gossip. They just earn monthly salary without generating any revenue for the secretariats. I see no difference between them and ghost workers.

Most of the workers in Exams and Records in public universities do nothing apart from gossip. Students queue for payment invoice and queue again for signature after payment. But after final-year exam, the same students will gather all the receipts for paid fees and move from one office to another for clearance. What then do the workers in the Records office do if they can't prepare lists of those who are owing and those who have paid? The students will also move from one office to another, trying to get their results. There are many workers in the office but students queue for not just hours but for days behind the office windows while the workers sluggishly attend to the students.

I know a public secondary school in which SS1, SS2 and SS3 had only one Maths teacher. The same teacher was a lecturer in a State Polytechnic. One SS1 set saw the teacher only 4 times in 3 years (as the set moved from SS1 to SS3). The teacher taught the set Maths twice in SS1 and once in SS2. The 4th time was when the teacher entered the SS3 class once to advise the students to go to lesson centres to prepare for WEAC and NECO. Imagine a teacher being the one telling students to go to lesson centres.
You're off point

The government of Nigeria is a burden to Nigeria and adds no value to her growth

Nigerian government is a parasite.

No miracle can happen in Nigeria, it’s gone for good, before end of the year cement will be 10k per bag, dollar will be above 3k, nothing will work because it’s built on lies and deceit, that is why the good , upright and sincere people can not prosper in Nigeria, no matter the grammar and policy put in place it will not work,it is so because it’s same ruling class, eg a former accountant general looted over 300billion , he hosted a party in his house when he was granted bail, emeifele looted trillions operated over 500 accounts , he is in his house watching Afcon with expensive luxury wines,beta Edu diverted 3billion , she is in her house doing make up, these re what the system sees as upright people, examples 2, uae arrested sum terrorist sponsors in dubai linked to boko haram and jailed them, later named their collaborators in Nigeria that operate bureau the change through which the launder money, none of them were arrested , or persecuted talk more of been in jail, they re all sleeping well in their air conditioned houses in abuja, example 3, the billions fg used to rescue dangote refinery , imagine it was used to promote small and medium enterprises, share it to a million youths that are into sme and each indirectly employs 5persons do you know what it means, instead it was giving to one person that will not will not employ more than 5000 Nigerians, the fuel price will not go down, he will not by Nigerian crude, and he will still source the scare dollar in Nigeria to buy American crude , putting more pressure on naira, Labourer’s in core northern states now travel to Niger republic to look for jobs , because naira is now worthless to cfa, Nigeria is now a laughing stock in comity of nations, for those whom think prayers will save Nigeria re wasting their time, majority of Indians and Chinese re Hindu and Buddhist , but have sent people to space, all have good economy, giving good lives to their people,but Nigeria remains one of the most unfortunate country in the world despite blessed with natural and human resource

Don't assume everyone hate reading like you do.
The article was written in English.
The relevant parts were even highlighted for skimmers.
All you need do is point out any of my response that is not in the article.

There's nothing in your post that shows that you read and understood the write up.

What he said was that even though Nigeria's unemployment is low on paper, in reality most Nigerians are underemployed and poor, so government needs to do more to create better jobs.

Here we go again.
What does he mean by value?
If he mean 81% of Nigerian labor force doesn't pay tax, he should come out and state that clearly.

Instead of him to confront the misleading 4.1% unemployment figure, he resorts to blaming workers.

Even if we assume that all government workers including him are unproductive(that is obviously not true), they don't
make up to 5% of Nigerian workforce.
So where did he get his 81% from?

Unless he wants to argue that the private sector is also paying people for doing nothing.

The real question should be does the arms of government, political office holders and appointees add value to the economy?

These people are liabilities wasting tax payers money.
