#SenateYouthRoundTable; Read Why Saraki Wants To Meet Youths, CSOs, MDAs, Others

​As the Senate President, His Excellency Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki (CON) holds a round table  on unemployment today with Ministries, Departments and Agencies of Government, Civil Society Organizations and the private sector, we highlight some of the Bills that the 8th Senate has passed since it took off in June 2015 and those in different stages of consideration that can tackle unemployment problems in Nigeria. When these Bills which has been passed by the Senate are eventually signed into Law by the Executive, we believe they can create millions of jobs and take so many unemployed youths out of the labour market.
