Will this be the Solution to Unemployment in Nigeria?



The Federal Government is currently working with the United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO) on a national survey of unemployed Nigerians and their level of skills. This is to help them to get employment in the sectors of the economy, which are attracting massive investments and job vacancies........


This was disclosed by the Minister of Industry, Trade and Investments, Olusegun Aganga, after the inaugural meeting of the Presidential Jobs Board at the State House, Abuja, on Friday, November 14, 2014.

The board, with private and public sector players as members, is chaired by Vice-President, Nnamadi Sambo, and had met to evolve the right governance structure to drive and sustain government's plan to create about three million jobs for unemployed Nigerians in 12 months.

Int the words of Olusegun Aganga;
"There are many jobs in the country but the level of unemployment remains high, which is why the board is mandated to help fill the gap between jobs and unemployment".
