1 thought on “Prof Wole Soyinka advise youths”

  1. The answer is not far-fetched. I am not a Youth, nor do I stand proxy for them. But as an elder, I have to be realistic.
    More openings were facing fewer populations. You could imagine in those good old days, while in Secondary Class 5, different establishments would come to schools advertising and sourcing for hands. From the Military, Police, Customs, Immigration, etc.
    Today, those in service keep doctoring their ages thereby blocking vacancies.
    How many Universities were producing manpower? How many private institutions did wer have? But today, these institutions keep churning out massive number of youths who come out to face very limited job vacancies.
    Embezzlement by government functionaries would not allow infrastructures to be put in place to enable the engagement of the young ones.
    Computerizations and reforms have also outsourced many categories of public services. Governments would deliberately not want to recruit for the mere sake of cutting costs and cutting corners.
