They are not useless as you think.They are rather eye-openers showing us the mediocrity and lack of vision of the slowpokes we called leaders right from the 1970s up till now.They are selfish,tribalistic and corrupt. They are actually rulers not leaders. You can't ask your followers to suggest solution if you are a competent leader. If you don't have solutions as leaders to problems confronting your people , resign. We don't need people with low IQ as leaders .

Narratives like these are just useless lamentations. What solution do you propose?[/quote]

The most annoying thing is the way they mention the generation of 4000mw with pride. God who have we offended. Have mercy on us . am tired of hearing any news about electricity in Nigeria. It is always a bad news. Nothing to celebrate.

A population of about 200million people consuming only 4000mw in this 21st century. Walahi, this country is a big waste and the leaders should bury their faces in shame.

I weep for my country Nigeria. Even after more than 50 years , we can't fix the power sector. Still setting up Board over mere 4000mw of electricity. Who did we offend, O God have mercy.

What most Nigerians do not know is that the present economic challenges we face in Nigeria present are consequences of lack of vision of our leaders who led us in the 70s,80s,90s and early 2000. They failed to plan for the future at all. It is like a taxi driver who makes a lot of money from driving his car for decades and never planned for the replacement of the car when it becomes a scrap. The taxi driver will definitely be jobless when the car eventually breaks down totally.Nigeria made a lot of fortune from oil during these decades but squandered all while its population continues to grow astronomically. The graduates don't have refineries to work because they are all broken down,there is unstable power supply because we did not plan to expand our power generation in line with growing population. i don't know whether the person who cursed this country is still alive.Nigeria is a big joke.

solutions to unemployment.
Part 1- Education
1. Compulsory technical education or skill acquisition programme for all youths after secondary school. No admission to university without having skills
2. No new undergraduate admission to university for at least 2 years
3. Reknown educational or consulting firms should involve in university admission
4. Enforce standards in university education. no to jamboree admission
5. Auditing firms of international repute should audit papers published by university scholars. Any lecturers with fake or plagiarized papers should be sanctioned
6. Departments or courses should be scrapped or merged while university or polytechics either public or private not meeting up to standards should be converted to secondary schools or vocational training centres or technical colleges.
Part 2- business/economy
1. Use of NIN for all adults.
2. Voluntary nysc. Graduates who are unwilling to do nysc should get #1M to start business which will employ minimum of 2 workers. Such ones cannot take any job in private or public sector or relocate abroad in the next 3 years.
3. Scrapping cost of registering small scale business premises by state government with more emphasis on income tax.

These are necessary conditions but not sufficient enough to wipe out unemployment in Nigeria.For example,Nigeria has one of the largest population of highly skillful and technical workers in the world but no jobs for them,so the rate of unemployment continues to soar.
What we need is a set of appropriate fiscal and monetary policies that would reduce the demand and importation of foreigners and foreign goods.No country has ever solved the problem of unemployment by throwing its economy open to all kinds of imports.
Nigeria got this wrong right from the onset.We did not pursue industrialization. A country that has crude oil but import refined petroleum will continue to suffer from lack of employment for its engineers,scientists,etc.
The real sector of the economy should be developed then the economy itself will generate massive employment opportunities for the people.We cannot eat our cake and have it. Nigerian economy is only creating employment for foreigners through massive importation of foreign commodities. Infact Nigeria is not really a player in global economy yet. We only have a system in place to share crude oil revenue among the elites through the state apparatus, nothing is working in Nigeria except corruption ,inefficiency,nepotism and stupidity of our leaders in the past.

This is one of the reasons Nigeria will never get it right. A graduate of psychology heading a critical and highly technical department of the CBN when we have thousands of monetarists/ economists all over the country.Nepotism= incompetency.One day an engineer will become the governor of CBN.

l don't know why these akwa ibom people are so daft.Instead of voting for Akpabio to become automatic senate president from SS for the 1st time in Nigeria.They They allowed sentiment and hatred for Apc to deprive them of number 3 position in Nigeria.will surely regret their foolishness and lack of foresight. l wonder what the pdp man will give in a senate that is dominated by apc members.the north knows how to play politics better than our noisy SS people.

Another Nyamiri post

PMB government really favours yoruba people. I wonder why some of them are busy crucifying him. How many yorubas are appointed into key positions during GEJ government. Even Atiku will definitely sideline the yorubas from the look of things. Yoruba ronu.

Most useless elderstateman in Nigeria. After sharing our oil wells and looted our common wealth.
