Unemployment in Nigeria, particularly in the form of graduate unemployment, has become pronounced in the last two decades due primarily to upsurge in the output from tertiary education and inelastic labour absorptive capacity of the Nigerian labour market for the services of university and polytechnic graduates. The various causes of unemployment in Nigeria in general and among graduates in particular as leveled down to corruption among the said leaders who claimed they are representing us. Also, the reasons given for the failure and limited success of the policies and programmes are highlighted. These are managerial incapability, effort duplication, unaccountability, low quality of training inputs, inadequate funding, policy inconsistency and poor governance, unwieldy scope of programmes and ineffective targeting of beneficiaries.
In public service, you will find it hard to secure a job with the government so we all find solace in the eyes of the private owned companies and in turn, they used Nigerian youth as if we are still in slavery.
How can we be talking about unemployment in this country when government claimed they employed at least 20,000 graduates every year.
