Lagos, Nigeria -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/09/2015 -- In January of 2015, the unemployment rate in Nigeria was only 6.4%. So far this year, this number has continued to rise, with the second quarter of the year showing an 8.2% unemployment rate. Studies have shown that many of the people who are trying to find a job are unsuccessful because they aren't sure where to look, or the jobs happen to be scams by someone who is preying on those looking hard for employment opportunities.
