Tinubu Administration to Provide Monthly Allowances for Unemployed Graduates – Minister of Education
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

President Bola Tinubu’s administration has introduced a new initiative to provide monthly allowances for unemployed graduates in Nigeria. This move is aimed at supporting young people who have completed their education but are struggling to find jobs.

The announcement was made by Education Minister Prof. Tahir Mamman during a recent meeting with a group of young Nigerians at his office. According to Mamman, the federal government has allocated funds specifically for this program. However, he expressed frustration that this important information has not been widely covered by the media.

Mamman emphasized that every student who has graduated but has not yet found employment will be eligible to receive this allowance. He underscored the significance of this initiative, stating that it is crucial for both graduates and the general public to be aware of the support being offered.

“The government is committed to providing financial assistance to unemployed graduates. It’s essential for everyone to understand that this program is in place to help those who are struggling to secure employment after completing their studies,” Mamman said.

This announcement comes at a time of widespread discontent across the country. Many Nigerians are protesting against what they perceive as poor governance and unfavorable policies. Demonstrators are calling for a change in the government’s approach, criticizing what they consider to be policies that negatively affect the public.

One of the main issues driving the protests is the removal of the fuel subsidy. On May 29, 2023, during his inauguration, President Tinubu announced the removal of the subsidy, which had previously kept fuel prices lower. This decision has been met with strong opposition from various groups, who argue that it has led to higher fuel prices and increased living costs for ordinary Nigerians.

The ongoing protests reflect broader frustrations with the current administration’s handling of economic and social issues. Protesters are demanding not only a reversal of the fuel subsidy removal but also changes in other government policies they believe are detrimental to the well-being of ordinary citizens.

The federal government’s new plan to provide monthly allowances to unemployed graduates is a significant development aimed at addressing youth unemployment. While this initiative represents a positive step, it is occurring against the backdrop of widespread protests and dissatisfaction with the government’s broader policies. The success of the allowance program will depend on its implementation and the government’s ability to address the other concerns raised by the protesting citizens.
