00:13:00unemployment is not localized
00:13:04only to
00:13:05burnost, our
00:13:08own is more felt because we have more
00:13:12educated people computing
00:13:16competing for very limited slots.
00:13:19now the approach that i would have is to
00:13:22develop youths. to make them

00:14:01one objective, which is to make sure that we go in
00:14:04there, provide positive representation that will deliver
00:14:08our people from the hardship that we are facing. from what we have
00:14:12been discussing today, you can see it is very clear and evident that our
00:14:16people are very, very optimistic and you can see where is
00:14:20the division? we did not announce PDP chairman for this, pdp
00:14:24chairman for that, We are one
00:14:26indivisible uh group of people who are going to
00:14:30be on the ballot who are going to win the election and change the direction
