Army Of Unemployed Youth, Women Invade National Assembly Seeking Job
Unemployed youth, women, others in their hundreds invaded the National Assembly premises on Thursday hoping to be employed as legislative aides by new members of the House of Representatives.
Some were former support staff of members who lost their seats in the 2019 general elections, others were new people anxious to try their luck.
This were as the 9th National Assembly kicked off proceedings same day amid a reminder that unemployment remains a key challenge in the country.
The job hunters who were mostly women stood in groups, waiting to present their curricula vitae to the lawmakers after plenary.
As the legislators walked into the lobby, they rushed towards them explaining why they were the most suited for the positions.
Also, deliberations at the lower chamber presided over by Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila quickly echoed the worrisome narrative on insecurity across the country.
