The Government in most African countries is the largest employer of labour.  If you use Nigeria as a case study, you will realise that the major employer of Labour here is FG.  Programs like - N-power, N-teach , Nigeria Jubilee Program and many others were designed to reduce the number of persons unemployed.  Although, pay may not be so great but at least you can put food on your table.  As reported in March 2022, the second major employer of labour in Nigeria is Dangote.

I that came to Lagos after service through night bus and started squatting with a friend who was squatting with another friend. After 4 months, we had to leave.

See this your, I can't do this, I can't do that is a statement that mustn't cross your mouth even if it crosses your mind at times. You take some jobs because they are what you have now while looking for what you truly want. It's in the night that a hustler, will know tha
