Nigeria has launched a program that promises to provide jobs for more than 750,000 young people amid rising youth unemployment, the Guardian reported. The 52 billion naira ($ 136 million) Special Public Works (SPW) program will target low-skilled workers. From October, he offers three-month internships, paying 20,000 naira ($ 53 or 28,805.50 CFA francs) per month, which is less than the minimum wage of 30,000 naira, but a significant help in a country where so much young people are out of work.
