1.1 BACKGROUND
The problem facing Nigeria is that of unemployment among young school leavers especially at secondary school level.
These young school leavers flocked the labour market with the hope of securing employment which is not exacting. Almost all of them are semi-skilled and thus find it difficult secure jobs. Unemployment in Nigeria is fast becoming a national threat and according to Musa (1983).
No country had ever survived high rate of unemployment because it creates social instability
