Every few months, the National Youth Service Corps turns out thousands of fresh corp members who had completed their one-year mandatory service to join the teeming population of young unemployed graduates.

With the unemployment rate at 13.3 percent in the second quarter of the year and a tendency to increase in the next few months, many people have proposed that young people should start their own business as a way out of this national dilemma. Well, I disagree totally.

I believe in entrepreneurship, or why else would I have become an entrepreneur myself? What I strongly advocate against is resorting to entrepreneurship as bailout from economic and financial mess.

An entrepreneur is someone who takes calculated risks to add value to a wider society with the hope of making money and building wealth not an unemployed, frustrated graduate who happens to find himself in entrepreneurship as a result of no choice. Not everybody is cut out of entrepreneurship, so youths shouldn’t be misled into thinking that struggling to build a business with no knowledge or capacity to run a business, is a fool proof way to earn a means of livelihood.

What unemployed graduates should do instead:

1 . Find out what your natural giftings are: We are all gifted in certain ways and we all can do certain things better and easier than others. Find out what it is.

2. Improve on the gift: It is important to be really good at what you do. Read books, attend seminars, talk to mentors… Know your stuff. Also get to know the market in which you operate in.

3 . Locate your market: Look for individuals, groups, and organizations that are in need of your skill and market yourself to them.

4 . Don’t stop improving on yourself: Learning is a continuous process. Don’t limit the amount of knowledge or qualifications you wish to attain. You never know what little bit of knowledge will help you propel your career.

5 . Be an intrapreneur: Get a paid job (if possible) while you improve on your skill and its marketability. This helps you to gather experience and funds to establish your own business.

Raising entrepreneurs is a key step in resolving the unemployment issue in Nigeria, but it must be approached from a better perspective.

Bad breath (Medically known as Halitosis) is embarrassing and can take a toll on your confidence level. Bad breath can be due to a number of reasons such as eating odorous foods, smoking, dry mouth, medical conditions, gum disease,dental cavities, poor oral hygiene, coated tongue (a white or yellow coating on the tongue, usually due to inflammation) and sinus conditions.

What do you think?

The Director General of the Bureau of Public Service Reforms (BPSR) recently released that Nigeria has a total number of 89,226 federal civil servants. This does not include several hundreds of thousands of state government civil servants across the thirty-six states of Nigeria. This is quite alarming especially considering the enormous disparity between this large number and the amount of productivity and effectiveness in the public service. Millions of public funds are wasted on salaries of workers, whose contributions are very minimal to the improvement of the economy.

Visit any government parastatal office and you’ll see my point. Government jobs are haphazardly handled or simply left undone. Who cares? At the end of the month, they are bound to receive their salaries or threaten with strike actions, should the government default in any way.

Except for a few ones with a keen sense of responsibility, most government workers have this carefree attitude towards work. You often see them in their offices gossiping, sleeping, eating, abusing customers and doing all sorts except the work they are paid to do. Apart from work, some of them take life with levity. Their job security has given them a false sense of security about life.

In my opinion, the government should take drastic actions against this public indiscipline. A system should be set up to monitor and measure the productivity of the workers and disciplinary measures should be put in place to deal with the unscrupulous ones.

Recently, Governor Fayose of Ekiti State, punished several state government workers for late coming by asking them to kneel on the road in front of their building ( as seen in the featured image). For a governor that is usually criticised for his various policies and slanderous words, people actually supported his decision, agreeing the punishment was necessary for their behaviour.

There are several thousands of Nigerians in need of a stable job, some of them work like elephants and get underpaid yet a group of people pride themselves in securing a good job but have nothing to show for it in productivity simply because they are doing a government job. This lackadaisical behavior is unacceptable in the private sector. Here, you work for what you earn, even more.

We’ve been talking about cutting down expenses and conserving public funds to awaken the economy I think retrenching lazy,unproductive government workers is a good step.
