Fellow Nigerians, APC propagandists keep pushing the narrative that President Jonathan has failed
woefully when it comes to job creation.
Nothing could be further from the truth. The president has been working assiduously on ensuring job
creation is one of his administration’s priorities.
Some of the programs put in place for direct job creation include:
Subsidy Reinvestment and Empowerment Programme (SURE-P)
Community service scheme designed to place about 10,000 from each state of the federation in labor
intensive work to construct and rehabilitate national infrastructure.
Graduate Internship Scheme designed to place about 1,400 graduates from each state in competent
firms, so as to develop their job skills, thus making them more employable.
Youth Enterprise With Innovation in Nigeria (YouWin!)
This is a business plan competition aimed at job creation by encouraging and supporting aspiring
entrepreneurial youth to develop and execute business ideas.
Started in 2011, it is now on its fourth cycle. Each cycle has had 1,200 winners, and it is estimated
that at least 12,000 jobs have been directly created from each cycle, a total of 36,000 thus far.
YouWin! cuts across all sectors of the economy, and with exponential growth factored in, it’s estimated
that as of this year, at least 50,000-8000 jobs would exist as a result of this initiative.
The best thing about both of these programs is that they are merit and not crony based, which means
the average Nigerian has access to them.
Having the President in office for 4 more years ensures both initiatives are solidified and at least half a
million previously non-existent jobs will be a part of the economy.
Thank you for your time, God Bless You and God Bless Nigeria!!! ~@mrAyeDee

Why are you jobless? Aren't you educated? Don't you have a skill? Don't you have aspirations to become something in life?

Paper jobs


A country with millions of jobless people

you provide 500 jobs and you celebrate
