Tinubu At Two: Where Are The Jobs? (5525 Views)

(4)

(1) Go Down)

Bobloco: 5:24pm On May 24
One of the fundamental criteria for evaluating the performance of any government is its ability and capacity to generate employment, whether directly through public initiatives or indirectly by enacting sound policies that foster a conducive environment for private sector growth. The creation of an enabling environment in which businesses can flourish inevitably leads to increased job opportunities, thereby contributing to national development.

Governments should be assessed on the basis of tangible outcomes such as employment generation, rather than by the number of political defectors they are able to attract to their party ranks. Such metrics are superficial and do not reflect governance performance or its impact on citizens’ welfare.

Upon assuming office, President Tinubu inherited an unemployment rate of 5.0% in the third quarter of 2023. As of the first quarter of 2025, that figure has risen to 5.4%. Although this represents a marginal increase, it underscores a troubling trend: rather than creating jobs, the istration appears to have presided over a net loss in employment. The truth is, more people have lost jobs, their means of livelihood.

This outcome signals a significant failure to address one of the most critical components of the Human Development Index. The inability to reverse or even maintain prior employment levels reflects poorly on the istration’s economic policies and priorities. It is a matter of serious concern and should be treated as such in any honest appraisal of governance.

Well, to be fair to Tinubu, he has created a lot of jobs, there are now thousands of miscreants littering the cyberspace and spewing baseless propaganda like their lives depends on it, and yes, their lives depends on it.

I think his istration has been remarkable, a president that can turn other presidential candidates and former presidential advisers to paid per post laptop dogs should be praised for making a mess of the education of some people who had been claiming sophisticated.

Western liberal democracy has failed in Nigeria. We need to redesign the country in our own image and in our own likeness.

The indignation ends when we see David Michael; the end of the great tribulation.

I'm not surprised with his scorecard, someone who will another person to wreck a country for 8 years so that he can come and rule the same country most likely doesn't have good plans for that country

it is simple logic but of course to some people tribalism and religious dominance is more important than logic and progress

IN a resource dependent economy without constant power supply, what do you expect?

Dutch disease.

The thing is, if we want job creation, we need to switch from a economy that relies on oil to one that exports manufactured goods and services, because that is the only way we can get enough jobs.

The problem with the tinubu government...they are not a government that wants us to go that way, because it means things like deregulating the power sector completely, which is unpopular...but needed, and actually fighting corruption, which amounts to many of their friends ending up in jail, and also, improving tax uptake, and actually promoting polices that would encourage domestic manufacturing.

But instead, we get roads, and projects, that in ten years will spoil because....not enough revenue to maintain and upgrade them properly, because our budget relies on oil money that isn't enough for 20 million people.

This is the African condtion. Because so many people are poor, our governments focus on trying to build 'equitable socieites' based on revenue from resources whose prices we do not control, and for the most part, the prices of our resources always leaves us at a disadvantage.

What even annoys me is that right now, APC, PDP, and LP are not ready to make that change from resource dependency to industrial dependency.

I tire for Nigeria.
