Though there are some folks who are lazy and don't want to work. Those people end up doing illegal jobs to get money. Average Nigeria youth are hardworking and that fact is obvious.

I will be sharing my experience about some youths i saw in Lagos and there enthusiasm toward work. We all know Lagosians to be hardworking people but the major working force in Lagos are youths. More also other south western states in Nigeria. The youth under the bridge and other rural areas in Lagos are hardworking folks.
I read from a newspaper produced in Nigeria about a foundation owned by a very important in the country, that has interest in helping Nigerian youth. Sp they decided to help fresh graduate by giving them a million naira to start a business and after a year they should be able to stand as a young entrepreneur. Those youth given the money went ahead to get a luxurious apartment, buy a sophisticated phone and enjoy themselves with there girlfriends. After a year, they showed nothing tangible from the fund given them only few made good use of the money.
So this prompted the organization to support youth that are not educated living in rural areas.The money they were supported with wasn't up to that of the fresh graduate. Could you imagine that those youth invested the money on things that yield good profits in 6 months. Today this youths are doing well as an entrepreneur.
