ABSTRACT
The objective of this study was to assess the effect of unemployment on youth in Nigeria using Odeda community as a case study. The study addressed four specific objectives, to explore youths’ views on what they identify as necessary for them to be employed, to examine employer’s perception about what they consider to be the root cause for youth unemployment, to determine the extent to which education in Nigeria prepares youth for self-employment and to propose the ways for solving youth unemployment problem in Nigeria. Questionnaire and interview were used to solicit information from 100 respondents. SPSS (Statistical Product and Service Solution) was employed to analyze quantitative data, while qualitative data were subjected to thematic analysis. Study findings reveal that although job opportunities are few, youths blame the current education curriculum, saying it is too theoretical and do not expose students to necessary practical, skills to employ themselves.
