riches4me:
Q. Why is NBS statistical releases always difficult to understand
A. They are always in riddles.

Millimann:


Well, Nigerians are naturally hardworking and would take up any job just to be engaged. Let's say they are majorly under-employed.

Coldie:

This is not true Nigeria is one of the freeest countries in the world just that university supremacy and pride won't let lots of Nigerian's engage in Sim certain jobs.

When I was in pH I know a hotel that was built in an area with unemployed guys with an opening on the gate saying manager, cook, security, cleaner wanted I told a guy who was done with his nysc that was still living with his parents to apply the guy laughed and said whether I want fall him hands.

This goes on, I know somebody that is from a place whose dad is part of the elites in his community they have vast lands in his community that can be used for farming all those lands lie idle but he is in the city doing nothing blaming Nigeria and cursing buhari

zhike:


Sad to hear that

zhike:

Lol, statistician is not supposed to assume.
There Is quick ways to get this data, they can get this data from labour dept, tax services, etc

Kriss216:

So, a graduate to go and apply for cleaner in a hotel is what you call employment?

You shouldn't be saying this in a public forum. you're embarrassing our Nation.

shugabasbn:
Nigeria own is not about unemployment but mal-employment where graduates go home with 20k per month and Msc with 30k,PhD with 50-70k with inhuman working condition.

Kriss216:
Unemployment rate in my household is over 98.9857%!

zhike:
[s]NewsRoom 405 reported that unemployment rate in Nigeria is 8%.
Most viewers called and they were surprised With the low unemployment rate of Nigeria, because unemployment rate of South Africa is 30%.

Viewers were asking this questions:
1. Why Nigerians are running around the world looking for work while there is low unemployment rate in Nigeria
[/s]

zhike:

What is the advantage of having a foreign and local report.

duruZed:
while senators, and other house members collect 8m-10m monthly. Pls correct me if am wrong.

Coldie:

I didnt say anything about a graduate applying for cleaner jobs.

That apart u can't do cleaner job in Nigeria but u can do it abroad what's the use?

Coldie:

Nigeria has alot of employment.

The day u will know that Nigeria is trying is when a country like south Africa clocks 150million.

Countries in Africa with over 100million population like Ethiopia and Congo u can't imagine that level of suffering and poverty going on there, but am average Nigeria suffering has sth just that Nigerians have this hustling spirit, and naturally hustling requires u leaving your comfort zone.

Alot of Nigerians suffering a huge percentage of them are not suffering because of Nigeria its cause of bad choices, I know a guy who stays in a one room who sold a land for #11million he takes this money to another states and squanders it, like squanders everything when the money finished he comes back to his one room and joins people saying e no go better for Nigeria, Buhari your father etc.

We all know whose fault It is.

I know another guy that they opened a ware house for him with goods worth over 3million pay rent for 2 years with free house and feeding with a sienna. This guy finished everything if not for the person who opened the business getting angry the guy way on his was to sell out the sienna, his excuse is that business Is not his calling...lol

This list goes on


So Nigeria e get as e be.

In my area in rivers state where I stayed drugs is very rampant there's even cocaine in my area they call it charlie, i ask myself if these people are poor broke and unemployed how are they able to afford cocaine.

David2O:
How many people registered under these dept? Tax fee is enough to chase us away.
Statistician will never tell you he/she assumed. They will say based on estimate mind you, estimate, guess and assume are synonym of one another if I'm right.

Dayoebe:
This must be a fake news.

Even a toddler knows unemployment rate in nigeria should be above 90%



How many graduate were employed by the government

How many industry absolved labour

How many graduate has enough capital to start a business

zhike:

Nigeria has oil companies and am sure millions of people are working there.

Dayoebe:


What about millions that are just graduating?

Do they change their staff annually?

Minxie:
I must say, I'm also shocked by the unemployment rate in Nigeria because when I talk to Nigerians they always say how there's no work and no opportunities.

Meanwhile i look at Nigeria and I just see so many opportunities. Especially large scale opportunities. But I guess it's because I don't know what's really going on. And by the comments, i see that these statistics may not even be true.

tsdarkside:
lets make something clear....nigeria is a country were you dont need a certificate to start a business....

you can just set up a table somewhere you dont disturb others and start a business....

sellin fruits,sweets,bread and such....
soo,many are self-employed....

thats why the nigerian goverment promotes it even till today....
donkeys,wheelberrows,grindin maschines and such....

thats why south africans have it hard to compete with nigerians....
south africa just doesnt have the culture....i understand them to a degree....

tsdarkside:
think over it....
somebody that is sellin fruits will not complain about unemployment.

you dont even need goverment approval to even do it sef....
