Our population is too much,we need to balance job creation with job seeking. But many people are too dumb to understand it

One of the major factors responsible for the high level of unemployment in Nigeria is the rapid growth in population. There has been an increase in the growth of the labor forces along with the inadequate supply of jobs. The rapid population growth has been coupled with rural-urban migration. This has increased the population in cities thereby raising the level of joblessness undecided

Also the problems of lack of electricity and low purchasing power angry
I disagree sir, take 50 million out of the current population , there will still be unemployment.

Welcome to the club bro .
Nobody helps, you just have to keep motivated and have a clear plan
Just keep praying for a helper because trust me most people won't really care for your personal development just lots of words and nothing more grin

Just keep your head up, and only surround yourself with people who really care about you and not people who are ready to buy you drinks and not add to your growth grin

Learn something to do on your own. A job is not the ultimate objective.

Btw, jobs are quite easy to get. It's well paying jobs that are difficult.

Because you guys are too many in the country. Even as people are looking for job, they are still procreating without thinking of the consequences. The available jobs are way less than the number of people. That's it.

Nigeria with it's current economy should not have more than 60 million people, so you would need to take over a hundred million people away to make it easier to get employment.

Sorry to sound 'silly' but what I always tell people is to accept the reality and stop living in denial. The situation on ground is what it is, so embrace and DO NOT expect anything from anyone or anywhere except what you can do for yourself.

The solution to living in current situation, find something to hustle with, this will give you something to feed and cloth, while at it, keep self development as a top priority and along the line, something would come. It might not be what you expect but you obviously can't be at one bust stop waiting for a ride that would never come.

Pls do not be depressed. Job is not the only way out. Why not try business. Dont you have friends who could loan you cash?

Jobs are hard in Nigeria because we are all corrupt. We would rather help our unqualified family member than a qualified graduate. Corruption begins at home.
Exactly, corruption begins at home.
