Youth Unemployment in Jigawa: A Call for Action
The article discusses the issue of youth unemployment in Jigawa State, Nigeria, and its implications for security and socio-economic development. The author recalls the promise of job creation by the APC and Governor Muhammadu Badaru during the 2015 elections, noting the subsequent recruitment of teachers but arguing that these efforts are insufficient given the high unemployment rates reported by the NBS. The author suggests that solutions should focus on entrepreneurship and skills development rather than politically motivated programs. The piece also criticizes political leaders for failing to translate electoral victories into meaningful improvements for the youth, emphasizing the urgency of addressing unemployment to prevent the escalation of crime and insecurity.

Second Day of Voting in Nigeria Ends With Sporadic Violence But No Major Incidents
Nigeria's presidential election continued for a second day due to technical issues and sporadic violence, but no major incidents were reported. Difficulties included malfunctioning card readers, missing ballot papers, and violence at some polling stations. The election pits incumbent President Goodluck Jonathan against former military ruler Muhammadu Buhari. Buhari's All Progressives Congress (APC) reportedly won in Lagos and northern states, while Jonathan's People's Democratic Party (PDP) won in Ekiti state. Boko Haram's insurgency and a pledge of allegiance to the Islamic State remain key security concerns, while economic challenges persist due to falling oil prices and corruption. Election results are expected within 48 hours, and a candidate needs a majority of votes plus 25 percent in two-thirds of the states to avoid a runoff.

Nigerians flock to get voting cards as election looms
Nigerians are actively collecting their Permanent Voting Cards (PVC) ahead of the presidential election on February 25, with nearly 10 million new voters registered. The election is notable for the challenge posed by a third-party candidate to the traditional two-party system. Young voters are particularly engaged, motivated by issues such as insecurity, high living costs, and poverty. The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has extended the PVC collection deadline and introduced new technologies to enhance transparency. Despite past issues with elections, there is a sense of urgency and responsibility among voters, especially the youth, to influence the country's leadership.
