Former Nigerian president, Olusegun
Obasanjo, has called on all government parastatals to find a lasting
solution to unemployment in the country.
Speaking at the 10th anniversary and 6th and 7th convocation
ceremonies of Tai Solarin University of Education, TASUED, Ijagun,
Ijebu Ode, Obasanjo said:
“If there is no job for the unemployed to feed themselves and
also to contribute to the development of the country, then, we will all
be sitting on gun powder. If university education was not for
development then, it was not serving any useful purpose. It must be for
development, personal, local, national and even global and that is very
important.”
At the occasion, Ogun state governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, also said: “This year’s convocation ceremony, which marks the successful completion of another academic session, is a continued demonstration of commitment to the production of qualified teaching personnel for our education system.
“You are all expected to use your collective wisdom, knowledge, ability and exposure to sustain and promote the ideals of this great institution.”
He revealed that the 12 first class graduating students would be given automatic employment by the state government.
Meanwhile, in a recent visit the inspector general of police (IGP), Solomon Arase, paid to the former president of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo, at his residence in Abeokuta, the Ogun state capital, the ex-president used the opportunity to say that Nigeria is grossly under-policed.
