The National Directorate of Employment, or NDE, has reportedly registered 13,394 unemployed graduates in the Hawul Local Government Area of Borno, according to Mr. Inuwa Bwala, the area’s chairman. This was stated by Bwala yesterday in Hawul while praising NDE for carrying out the enumeration effort in the region.
He said that the group included graduates with a bachelor’s degree, a higher national diploma (HND), a national diploma (ND), and an educational certificate (NCE).

Bwala raised concern over the growing number of unemployed youths and called for urgent measures to tackle the problem, adding: “A society with such a large population of unemployed people is only delaying the evil day.” He urged youths in the area to explore ways of getting self-employed, instead of roaming the streets after graduation looking for government jobs.
The chairman said that his council would write to the Borno government for employment opportunities for the graduates, even as volunteer teachers on a monthly stipend. He said Gov. Zulum recently ordered the employment of such a category of unemployed youths in the education sector, saying that Hawul had many of these qualified youths.
