Based on a data given by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS)
yesterday Tuesday Dec. 17th, 54% of Nigerian youths were unemployed in
2012. This was revealed in the'2012 National Baseline Youth Survey
Report'issued by NBS and the Fed. Ministry of Youths Development. The
report read partly;
'More than half, about 54 per cent, of youth population were unemployed.
Of this, females stood at 51.9 per cent compared to their male
counterpart with 48.1 per cent were unemployed."
With the mass sack going in various companies in Nigeria, the figure should be higher this year.
