It Is Not A Governor’s Job To End Joblessness – Fayemi

Ekiti State Governor, Kayode Fayemi, has come out to say that it is not the job of the Federal Government to address unemployment.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, he doesn’t think it is the job of the government to end joblessness because the government can only create the enabling environment for job creation to thrive.

Fayemi added that he doesn’t care about the mode of payment at the APC, and his concern is always the route that gives politicians the best opportunity to engage Nigerians in a way that best suits them.

His words, “It is not the job of the government to address unemployment, it is our job to create the enabling environment to allow employment to happen.”

“We will create an enabling environment for businesses to thrive and then these businesses will create jobs in the process.”

On the mode of primaries in APC, “Let me begin with our constitution. The constitution of our party identifies three ways to conduct our primaries. Now we have an electoral act that says to have consensus, all parties must sign up.”

“I think for me, whatever route we take must also capture the voice of our people. Both inside and outside of our party, people should have a say in the party affairs.”

“I have no problems with direct or indirect primaries. Whatever gives us the opportunity to engage Nigerians in a way that best suits them and gives party members the freedom to decide the future of our country.”
