Unemployed graduates under the banner of ATA Foundation
are planning to stage protests to highlight their plights at the
Presidency and the National Assembly.
The group berated the federal government's attitude to
tackling the menace of unemployment, saying it was busy
chasing shadows, "believing that it could eradicate the menace
of Boko Haram insurgency, kidnapping, pipeline vandalism,
militancy and other social vices ravaging the country".
Speaking at a press conference in Lagos, the president of
ATA Foundation, Mr. Adebisi Thomas Adewole decried what
he termed, "unconcerned attitude" by successive governments
in the country towards unemployment.
Adebisi also noted that the statistics which claimed to capture
the number of unemployed youths in the country is inaccurate.
