World Youth Day: Nigerian Youth Task Buhari On N5000 Monthly Allowance by salterswan(op): 11:40am On Aug 13, 2015
As Nigerians joined the world to celebrate United Nations Youth Day, Nigerian youth have asked President Muhammadu Buhari to fulfill his campaign promises on the provision of employment and the payment of a monthly stipend of N5000 to over 25 million unemployed youths.

Speaking to African Independent Television, AIT, on Wednesday, some of the youth lamented that the rate of unemployment was increasing in geometrical progression as a result, “the idle hands have become the devil’s workshop.”

During Buhari’s electioneering campaign rally in Kano and other places, he promised to create three million jobs yearly to solve the problem of unemployment.

In addition, his then running mate, and now Vice-President Prof Yemi Osibanjo, at a campaign rally in Akure, also pledged 20,000 jobs yearly totaling 720,000.

Buhari also vowed to create a Social Welfare Program of at least N5000 that would cater for the 25 million poorest and most vulnerable citizens.

The President was scheduled to receive a contingent of young Nigerians currently performing a year of service under the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, scheme.

While delivering an address at the State House in Abuja during the commemoration of the International Youth Day 2015, the President stressed that the Youths are architects of change.

“As part of the commemoration of International Youth Day, I’d like to throw this challenge to Nigerians at home and abroad.
“I can assure you, my young compatriots that you have written your names in history and you will be remembered as true heroes of our democracy and as architects of change. see more here: http://www.post-nigeria.com/world-youth-day-nigerian-youth-task-buhari-on-n5000-monthly-allowance/
