The uproar then exposed a thinly guised intergenerational battle and friction between the older generation of Nigerians and the younger generation. While the older generation of Nigerians have little doubt that the current generation comes spoilt and alarmingly lacking in any of their values, discipline and work ethic, the younger generation blame the older generation that has formed the bulk of the managers of Nigeria`s commonwealth over the years of mismanaging same and foisting on them a broken system of which unemployment is but one of the more grotesque features. In Nigeria, unemployment fulfills this ignominious and pervasive role. Corruption has been a criminal contributor to Nigeria`s unemployment crises. It is an emergency because an entire generation of young Nigerians is beleaguered and imperiled by Nigeria`s unemployment crises.
