Nigeria’s House of Representatives has urged the Federal government to give automatic employment to Nigerians who graduate with first-class from higher institutions in the country.
The House, made the call after it adopted the motion moved by Hon. Chinedu Martin on the floor of the House, Today.
Hon. Chinedu stated that first class graduates achieve the feat through hardwork, and should be given automatic employment in Ministries, Departments and Agencies of government.
According to him, there are hundreds of 1st class students roaming the street without employment.
“Nigeria’s inability to leave the status of a “developing nation”, may not be unconnected with the insensitivity and lack of political will of the ruling class and policymakers to introduce a reward system in a way that the best brains will automatically occupy important positions according to their area of competence,” he said.
