Nigeria's ex President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo has urged the Federal, State and local governments to do more to employ the youths in the country.

“If there is no job for the unemployed to feed themselves and also to contribute to the development of the country then, we will all be sitting on gun powder” he said.

“If university education was not for development then, it was not serving any useful purpose.

“It must be for development, personal, local, national and even global and that is very important”.

He also added that education is a meal ticket for anybody that has it,adding that it is also a means of breaking poverty circle.

The former President spoke at the 10th anniversary and 6th and 7th convocation ceremonies of Tai Solarin University of Education (TASUED), Ijagun, Ijebu Ode according to Vanguard.
