Nigerian Unemployed graduates to receive N19k monthly allowance?
That's what a committee at the on-going National Conference is suggesting...for all unemployed
graduates in Nigeria to earn a monthly allowance equivalent to the allowance of members of the National Youth
Service Corps, which is N19,800.
Punch reports that the
conference’s Committee on Law, Judiciary, Human Rights and Legal Reform
made the recommendation but it can only fall through if it's accepted by
the
Federal Government.
A member of the committee said the
recommendation was one of the ways the committee members felt that crime
could be reduced in the country. He told Punch;
I have a feeling FG won't be interested in this. Who thinks it's a good idea?"The recommendation is our own way of finding solutions to the rising wave of crime in the country and to also force the government to do the needful for the increasing number of unemployed graduates in the country. We have done our part and it is left for the delegates to either reject or accept it at plenary.”
