House of Representatives, Tuesday, urged the federal Ministries of Youth and Sports Development and, Labour and Employment to build effective synergy to generate a databank for youths to enhance their chances of obtaining empowerment and employment.
The called followed a motion titled “Need to Design Youth Data Bank in Nigeria”, moved by Hon. Uju Kingsley Chima from Imo State at the plenary.
Moving the motion, Chima noted that the population distribution chart of Nigeria indicated that the youth made up of graduates, undergraduates, artisans, and other unemployed or unengaged were not accurately captured in a comprehensive databank.
