Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

YES Nigeria has been invited by the Federal Ministry of Labour Employment and Productivity to partcipate in the creation of the Implementation Framework of the National Employment Policy as National Committee Members. This is the guide that will be used to create the programmes and unite the stakeholders that will deal with employment in Nigeria.

How do you participate? Simply study the existing employment policy, make your comments and offer suggestions as how this can be successfully implemented. The questions to ask at all points are, will this enable young people earn a decent living and what will?
For reference we have an employment policy review guide available. Please feel free to download it. Collect feedback from your issue based groups and send it back to us. Your organizations name will be listed as a contributor in our report to the coordinating Ministry and the final findings sent to you.

After the Nigerian 2007 elections.... then what?

After the Nigerian 2007 elections.... then what?
April 15, 2007 @ 02:54 AM
join the disscussion at http://projects.takingitglobal.org/YES-Nigeria/discuss/thread/22161/?start=0

Much has been said about the do or die attitudes, the lack of focus on real issues, and personality cults of the participants in this years electoral race. Various initiatives to engage electoral aspirants at all levels were pursued. In my humble opinion I never got the impression that 99% of these initiatives actually made any impression on aspirants that were battling being banned by INEC, thugs, and traitors.. Most aspirants seemed to be concerned with fighting on a personal rather than issue based level and securing enough money for elections. I heard all the usual I will give electricity, roads, and of course the much used JOBS FOR THE YOUTH. With the execption of Pat Utomi (this is not a campaign) I did not hear HOW this things would be achieved. Come May 29 2007 a new administration will be sworn in. When the dust clears we must get our thoughts through to them. If you had a chance to speak to your president(Governor, Senator etc) what would you reccommend he/she does to better this country and ensure employment? Dream big! Speak your mind.

Finally weve reached some discernable point of hope in our democracy. Nigerian law makers put an end to a bid to extend the tenure of the president from two to three terms. This was to be acgieved by having the lawmakers ammend the constitution. Constitutional reforms that were so hastily packaged and aggressively pushed that it didnt take a rocket scientist to see all the other points were just the padding around Project 3rd term.

Well Im astounded Senators allegedly turned down almost a million dollars each in bribes. Proud in fact.

Finally we can focus on systems and not individuals. I love the fact that this whole fracas held us hostage. The outcome has taught us so much.
