“Most Northern Youths Are Uneducated” – President Buhari Strikes Again!

While millions of Nigerian are still yet to forgive him for the “Lazy Nigerian Youths” statement at CHOGM, President Buhari dropped another icy statement when he said that “most youths from the Northern part of the country were either uneducated or school dropouts.”
Taking a drive back to the CHOGM statement, President Buhari said “because Nigerian media only do what they like,” they refused to highlight the explanations in his recent statement in which he was widely quoted as describing a lot of Nigerian youths as lazy.
Buhari dropped the new smashing statement in an interview he had with Voice of America, Hausa service, in Washington, on Tuesday.
He said: “You know they say we are over 180 to 200 million people in Nigeria and 60% are the youth below the age of 30. In the North for instance, most have not attended school or they abandoned halfway. If not because we had favourable rainfall in the past two seasons; most of them have no jobs, just idling away. People like them, even if they go to the South for instance, what they will make will not be enough to even pay their rent not to talk of feeding, clothing, and transport back home.”
