Fuel subsidy removal=NIGERIA SPRINGS???

Dr. GEJ's loud silence over a critical issue like this of the removal of fuel subsidy is deemed as a declaration of total war on Nigerians. The timing is very wrong. It would be recalled that the population of the unemployed youths stands at approx. 20million from statistics. A real disaster waiting to happen the federal govt of Nigeria goes ahead with the planned removal without putting in place measures that will give their policy a soft landing and also a cushion effect. Nigerian workers, youths, and labor unions must watch out what may later turn to NIGERIAN SPRINGS! http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php?v=250&username=xa-4cebc5316e1c4ac8

THE FUTILITY OF REVOLUTION IN NIGERIA

The late civil rights crusader, Malcolm X once remarked that Revolution is bloody and hostile and knows no compromise. It overturns and destroys everything that gets in its way . More so the legendary late Chairman Mao of China also observed that Revolution is not a tea party because it is always watered with the blood of martyrs . In truth, the fear of revolution is the beginning of political wisdom. For some time now, Nigerians are being treated to daily lectures from some of the countrys politicians on the likelihood of a violent revolution if nothing is done to arrest the ongoing perceived drift of the nation. Such dire warnings from self styled messiahs are informed by the parlous state of the economy and consequence of inducing a cataclysm, the type that is now engulfing the Arab world. Surprisingly, those at forefront of this lecture circuit are former President, Olusegun Obasanjo and his successor, President Goodluck Jonathan...

Angst over spiralling graduate unemployment

N recent time, there has been much debate on how to tackle the rising rate of unemployment in Nigeria. Several efforts to tackle this challenge have been proposed by governments at all levels. The assumption that good entrepreneurial skills and initiatives will prune the unemployment rate in the country is far from reality when the operating environment is put into consideration. Confidence crisis has become a norm whenever measures to address issues are announced as such tinkering measures look good in the papers but end up being dogged by bureaucracy. Recently, the Minister of Youth Development Bolaji Abdullahi during his visit to the orientation camp of the Batch C 2011 youth corps members, disclosed that arrangements would be put in place as from next year so that organisations in the private sector seeking the services of youth corps members would also commit themselves to giving them jobs after the service year. Youth unemployment is no doubt one of the biggest prob...
