The All Progressives Congress in Kwara State has applauded the positive ratings of the state’s employment status by the National Bureau of Statistics .
Spokesperson Tajudeen Aro said the ratings underscored the efforts of Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq to reposition the state for growth. He said: “The NBE’s employment indices for the second quarter of 2020 showed that Kwara’s unemployment rate slowed from 21.1 per cent to 13.8 per cent — one of the lowest in Nigeria.“These statistics underscore the superlative performance of Governor AbdulRazaq, who continues to … improve the people’s lot.“We take cognisance of the fact that the low unemployment rate posted for Kwara came at the height of the COVID-19 lockdown when millions of jobs were lost.
“All these ensured minimal loss of jobs while rolling out micro-economic strategies to keep people productively engaged and tackle mass poverty. We congratulate the governor for this feat and urge him to remain focused in stabilising Kwara for socioeconomic development…”
