Nigerian govt’s empty promises of job creation: A call for genuine action

The government must cease its repetitive promises of job creation, which have become mere rhetoric.

The approach to job creation is not complex, but in Nigeria, government actions are characterised by an overwhelming array of conflicting statements, only to circle back with the same promises every few years.

It is evident that any government involvement in any entity rapidly accelerates its decline due to entrenched corruption in our system, which is profound and troubling.

Instead, the government should focus on fostering an environment that enables individuals to create their own employment opportunities. Three critical areas for improvement are energy, fuel, and production. Nigerians possess remarkable resilience and resourcefulness; with reliable electricity, we could significantly transform the country.

We do not require government loans or initiatives like the Anchor Borrowers’ Scheme and the like, which often serve only political interests. What is needed is a steady supply of electricity.

The increasing number of university graduates seeking self-employment is a clear indicator that we do not need government handouts. These stipends rarely reach those who could use them to invest in micro-businesses. They go to affiliates and followers of politicians or are banked in private accounts to be used during elections.

As a matter of fact, no one I know has received such government assistance. It is, quite simply, ineffective. A shameful sham. Every day you sleep and wake up wondering if Nigeria was deliberately programmed to fail. Simple things become so knotty and confusing that all we can do is go to the beer parlour and open a bottle of beer to simply forget it! 😆

That our leaders travel abroad, hold conferences and board meetings in Switzerland, Dubai, Seychelles, etc., lavishly spending and strengthening the dollar against our poor, old, weak, sick Naira, spend holidays in those cities and see their system working and benefiting the people but come back home to their villages where poverty stalks about, trailing every soul like a shadow, is so pitiable.

I think our leaders are bereft of shame and humanity. It is honestly mind-boggling, confounds rational reasoning. Abi na juju?
