In Nigeria, many youths struggle so much financially as adults and graduates. It's no news that jobs in our country are for those with connections, and a few of those who acquired high paying skills. Obtaining jobs were already difficult enough, and now, with the current economy, it's way worse.

What do you think is the biggest challenge youths face in employment and how can it be addressed ?
The biggest challenge the youth face in employment is the fact that, there are lots of skilled and people that are available to work, yet there are no employment opportunities for them. The issue of unemployment in Nigeria is one of biggest challenge we face as a country, first we don't have industrial revolution, so basically we don't have electricity that can sustain industries across the country,  so we have less manufacturing industries, and manufacturing is one of the biggest sectors that can absorb a lot of persons that are unemployed, this is the major reason there is led job opportunity and the few jobs that are available is been struggled upon by those that have access to, either for it to be given to their kind.
