Buhari, N’Assembly Not To Blame For Unemployment – Orji Uzor Kalu
The senate chief whip and former governor of Abia state, Senator Orji Uzor Kalu, has exonerated president Muhammadu Buhari and the National Assembly from the cause of high rate of unemployment in the country.
Senator Orji while speaking in Abuja on Tuesday during a Graduate Skills Training programme organised by a Tech company, said most Nigerian graduates are unfit to get a job as they were not properly trained.
In Orji’s words;
“We should not blame President Muhammadu Buhari nor the national assembly over the high rate of unemployment in the country which is causing insecurity. I’ve been a governor so I know what I am talking about.
“Most of our graduates are not properly trained for the jobs. That’s why there is insecurity. Everything is not on Buhari or the national assembly. It is because most people are not groomed properly for leadership.
“Going to the university is not enough because most of these lecturers don’t even know what they are teaching you. I became an entrepreneur before I went into politics and I am still the chief adviser of my companies that employ over 13,000 people so I know what I am talking about.”
