President Muhammadu Buhari says many Nigerian youths just want to sit down and do nothing, banking on the notion that Nigerian is an oil-rich nation.
Speaking at the Commonwealth Business Forum in Westminster on Wednesday, the president said a lot of Nigerian youths have not been to school and they want everything free.
“About the economy, we have a very young population, our population is estimated conservatively to be 180 million. This is a very conservative one,” Buhari said.
“More than 60 percent of the population is below 30, a lot of them haven’t been to school and they are claiming that Nigeria is an oil producing country, therefore, they should sit and do nothing, and get housing, healthcare, education for free.”
Hmm i have nothing to say unless I feel like this man don’t tired me????? I swear ???
I think he wanted to say the poeple from north are 95% illiterate
Your right
me.e…..n dat man is a bastard illitrate
To say most Nigerians below the age of 30 did not go to school is not true and cannot be true , and whoever got this perception may also not have gone to school to truly know the obvius , many Nigerian youth below the age of 30 have gone beyound secondary school education and are seeking to advance , a look at JAMB scores will convince you that truly huge number of qualified students could not get admission not because they failed but because there is no space for them in the University , and it is not their fault, for a leader to say most Nigerian youth did not go to school and are expecting to have things free is truly unfortunate, the leader truly has lost the grip of important information about the potentials of youths in Nigeria. May be he is reffering to a section of the country !
Mr President I Suggest Should make a U turn about what you have been said. This is totally not done
Something is wrong some where, even Nigeria’s that don’t go to sch come and see them, where they work like Jacky, President buhari, pls think deeply b4 you say some things about Nigeria. pls
Why is it that he always find it very difficult to say all these here in Nigeria but whenever he’s out of the country?
My President.. My Country Nigeria.. Am I Dreaming? Somebody Pls Wake Me Up. Buhari And His Family Are The Most Lazy Family On Planet Earth. Where Has Buhari Worked B4? Recomended Into The Army Witout WAEC. Lazy President That Blaims The Living And The Dead.
Nigerian youth are on educated, OK no p. But Mr pmb haven note this what have you done to correct this impression. Knowing fully well that these are the future of the nation. Now that you are old and weak, who takes over from you? With your notion it means you do not have the teeming youth in your plan. And that also means after your tenure the country Nigeria will seize to exist. Which also means you are a total failure.

This is a very wrong perspective to speak from, it sounds more like a defensive tactics. If NigerIan youths are illiterate and lazy is that the reason for your anti- people policies, lacklustre attitude to issues of life and death, and total failure
