Did Goodluck Say He Will Run 2019?

You seem to miss the point of my initial post. Let me reiterate again. Yes, the amount is small, but it is a start. You keep talking about rent, food, clothing etc. Now the question is, those who applied for this scheme and have been rejoicing since for being selected, how have they been surviving when they were not earning a penny? Would you advice them to pass on this opportunity and remain jobless because the pay is small?

In today's Nigeria, the minimum wage is still 18k, and I know of contract bank tellers who earn 50-60k per month. I know of private school teachers who earn 20-30k per month. And they are graduates. One can always start with the available, gain work experience and then move on to the desirable.

And lastly, this is a 2-year scheme, not a permanent job. It will only equip participants with training and work experience for future opportunities. The 30k is a stipend, not a salary as such.

And why would I lie? Seriously bro 18k was nothing to write home about in 2005. Don't make the mistake of thinking it was. NYSC allowee back then was already like 7-8k. I lived in Idimu then and worked in Gbagada. You want me to do a breakdown of my daily transport fare for you to believe?

isn't this the only reason why they shout sai baba and you are going to take it away from them??... Fatai Ahmed should first consult with his benefactor if such is the way to go

But I don't remember her ever raising alarm about the economic woes when Jonathan was in power

Bro forget that thing o. I spent N600 per day on transport and lunch even back then. That's 12k for 20 working days leaving me with just 6k. Point is even then that money could not rent a house, buy designer clothes or do some of the other things you mentioned. Agreed, the money is small, but it's a start. A prudent person who is single can save a decent sum for a start-up business within that 2-year period.

dabossman:
Oga, why are you taking Panadol for another persons headache? Those who have been selected are on the other thread rejoicing and thanking God, you are here complaining about something you don't need. My first paid job as a graduate some 11 years ago was a paltry 18k that just barely covered for transport and lunch, but I know how far i have come since then. Everybody must start from somewhere, even if it is little begins. Mind you, it is a voluteer scheme with a time frame. It's not a long term job. It's just a start. Some of those taking these jobs have never worked a day in their life since graduating.

Federal Government collects 50% of all revenues. Buhari should be able to think of positive economic policies.
