Africa's Unemployment problems and the Solution-The birth of a new System

Africa, the second-largest and second-most populous continent in the world after Asia, accounts for about 15% of the world population. Although Africa is very high in natural resources it remains to be the poorest and most underdeveloped continent in the world with poverty, malnutrition, illiteracy, poor health and unemployment issue.Its also on record that African countries top the chat of the world's list of countries by Unemployment rate with Zimbabwe having over 90% of her population unemployed. Amidst this is the proliferation of head hunters and employment agencies all over Africa that force job seekers to purchase forms and in some cases part with their 1st month remunerations. Most saddening is the fact that Government Policies in Africa are not encouraging Entrepreneurship and make it very difficult for bright Entrepreneurs to access loans from banks as they usually don't posses the requisite collateral for such loans. I have witnessed over 5 thousand candidates vying for just 2 positions in a job Interview...you can see many such examples in a bank interview session. Also disheartening is the rate of increase in the number of Universities, which is a good thing anyway, I'm all for more universities, but the problem really is that thousands of graduates are churned out every year into the already saturated labor market without making proper arrangements for their absorption into the society, hence the frustration amongst youths and restiveness. Employer, a UNINET Africa Initiative has designed systems that are aimed at solving some of these problems while creating jobs for the skilled and professional labor.

Since 2009, I have been networking with fellow Africans in over 30 African countries on this issue of unemployment and as EMPLOYER launches in Nigeria, the base and starting point, other Countries will follow quickly, forging transformative and life changing partnerships in our society. The concept is very simple indeed, more like a Jobocracy, we have the problem, we share it amongst ourselves, we create the jobs for ourselves...not jobs that are de-meaning but jobs that we all shall be proud of. This is a cause you will never regret being a part of and I encourage you to take up the challenge and donate your time to this program. Please feel free to like the EMPLOYER page on facebook for news on the cause as events unfold.

 I therefore call on all Africans at home and in diaspora, I call on friends of Africa who wish to put a smile on the faces of all unemployed to join me in this cause as we unfold very simple systems and methods of providing empowerment to all. I'd be glad to have you as my partner in the progress we make on this epoch making journey. Please stay connected to continue to get information and to contribute to the beginning of a new era, JOBOCRACY-The ideal state of employment, the creation of jobs by the people who need them, for themselves and with themselves; a complete state of allowing the state of joblessness be decided by individuals who are affected, enabling them to move into new directions, by themselves...Jobocracy has over the centuries been cloaked with several names and adopted by various societies as communal or collective efforts at providing for the people, it has equally seen the formation of thrift and co-operative societies...but today, Jobocracy has and will come to stay in its fully metamorphosed form and I encourage all partners towards this fight against unemployment and joblessness to walk with me as i gradually unfold systems and practices towards reducing or completely eliminating unemployment, especially in the African continent.
