People that work one hour make and contribute more than those that waste hours at work tweeting and gossiping on Nairaland
mumu! According to your NBS even those that are commenting on nairaland here for an hour are gainfully employed. Is that the type of government you want us to support? If they tell you to swear with your life or the life of your children, can you swear that 76.7% of Nigerians are working?

Very soon they will tell the world that 90% Nigerians are rich because they can afford to eat once a day. Nonsense!!!! These people have completely ran out of idea to fix this country. Citizens you are on your own !!!
No solution leaders is what we have in Africa. What they know is politicking. They play politics even after getting power and that's why the system is always regressing.

What this means:

If you spend at least 1 hour to analyse football matches and than place a bet, take a bow, because you are not unemployed.

If you spend at least 1 hour to pose as a sexy lady online to chat with men, obtain their nudes and blackmail them, keep working hard because Nigeria regards you as gainfully employed.

If you spend at least 1 hour bombing formats out from your lappy, be happy because even though EFCC is unhappy about your activities NBS is happy you are employed.

If you spend at least 1 hour on hook-ups with a man, take a bow, you are contributing to the Nigeria's GDP.

If you spend at least 1 hour on X (Twitter) to drive impressions, take a bow, you are gainfully employed.

If you are among the people who spend at least 1 hour to watch movies online for money, repost porn works of porn artistes for money, etc., rejoice because you are not part of unemployed statistics in Nigeria.

Alleluia somebody, Nigerian economy is booming. grin
Hahahahaha! Funny but true. And if you spend some few hours online sexually teasing men into hookup and sex video calls as in BIGO and the likes, you are infact gainfully employed.

Whatever I wish for Nigeria to be is what it will bear for me, I see Nigeria as a land that flow with milk and honey, a good land. Therefore the land of Nigeria will be good to me.

But you that considered Nigeria cursed, and probably still walk and feed on the land you cursed. How can such land bear good fruit for you? Whatever the land your cursed produced and you consume will automatically become a poison, it is natural. You get it?

Does working 1 hour a week mean that you are gainfully employed? What kind of foolishness is this, for Gods sake?
Re: Working For 1 Hour Shows You Are Employed, NBS Tells Nigerians by MrTed(m): 3:07pm On Aug 25, 2023
Well, well, well, hold on to your hats because we've got some groundbreaking news, folks! The National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) has just worked its magic and pulled a rabbit out of its hat: a staggering 76.7% of Nigerians are employed Can you believe it? I mean, who knew the job market in Nigeria was so robust? It's almost like finding a unicorn in your backyard.

But wait, there's more! The NBS claims that Nigeria's unemployment rate plummeted from a whopping 33.3% in Q4 of 2020 to a minuscule 4.1% in the first quarter of 2023. And why, you ask? Well, strap in, because it's all thanks to a brand-spanking-new methodology. No longer do you need to work a whole 20 hours to be considered employed. Nope, just a measly one hour in the past seven days will do the trick! Who cares about decades of labor statistics conventions, right? It's time for a modern twist
.

And let's not forget the wise words of Prince Adeyemi Adeniran, the Statistician General of the Federation, who assures us that this change has nothing to do with making the new government look good. No siree! It's all about "bringing up the method." So noble.

Oh, and have you heard the great news? According to this revolutionary methodology, informal employment, including agriculture, among employed Nigerians is a jaw-dropping 92.6%. Clearly, the labor force is just living the dream, hustling away on their farms, blissfully unaware that they could be part of the prestigious 4.1%.

But wait, there's a voice of reason amidst all this revelry. Atiku Bagudu, the Minister for Budget and Economic Planning, has declared that the mere 12% of waged employment shows that the government needs to do more to provide jobs for graduates. A mere 12%? You've got to admire his optimism!

And let's not forget Paul Alaje, the senior economist at SPM Professionals, who cracks the code for us. The reduction in unemployment has absolutely nothing to do with the government's efforts, policies, or job creation in the private sector. Nope, it's just that people are busy doing stuff that's apparently beneath their capacity. Maybe they're all secretly CEOs of multinational corporations working undercover?

So there you have it, folks! The NBS has waved its magic wand, the unemployment problem has disappeared like a puff of smoke, and we're all living the dream of one-hour-a-week employment. Who would've thought that statistics could be this entertaining?
