promise to ensure employment of Nigerians in the face of a
grim economic reality.
The government, according to minister Kemi Adeosun, is
adopting a new strategy to ensure that the citizens get
alternative employment not necessarily with the government
While speaking to the a committee of the Senate, she also
talked about what the 2017 budget would look like
The government of President Muhammadu Buhari may have put a
stop to employment into the civil service, Kemi Adeosun, the
country's finance minister, has reportedly said.
The administration had promised massive reduction in the rate
of unemployment in the country while the All Progressives
Congress (APC) campaigned during the 2015 general election.
Adeosun reportedly told the Senate on Tuesday, October 25,
2016, that the government no longer had no reason to take
more people into the public sector.
Nigeria is currently suffering from a huge economic crunch
and an inability to make the 2016 budget perform optimally.
The APC also recently took responsibility for the country's
current woes but promised that 2017 would witness a positive
lift.
She said what the government planned to do now is strengthen
the private sector for more jobs to be created.
