Less expenditure on social security and pension
Guarantee continuous supply of labour
Wider market for goods meant for the youth like clothing

Well more useful and efficient citizen with the best idea to come and with the strength to perform different forms of services

 

[Reedex]

The population of the youth in the economy of any country contributes to the workforce and such kind of population should help in the growth of the economy drastically

 

[Niyi Briggs]

The way the world is goin technologically, there is need for a Country to have young people that would be able to harness the creativity needed to thrive in this age.

Its not about having a population filled with youths alone, you could have lots of youths and they are not hard working in anyway. Have youths that understand the value of working.

A youthful population would make the economy to boom with fresh ideas. They are active and can drive economic and business activities in manufacturing thereby boosting the country's gdp..

 

[Reedex]

The youth are very active and they are actively involved in the economy.

 

[Bisolami]

Less expenditure on social security and pension

This is true and the youths will still be agile and be able to work

 

[Stardom22]

As we all know that the youths are very energetic and able, their presence in larger numbers in an economy means an added plus to that particular nation. This would promote the production output and hence rise the growth of the GPD.

 

[Springtime]

Having a youthful population means that the country has an abundant supply of labor. The place is more vibrant and innovative. And there is less expenditure on pension, healthcare and elderly care services.

A possible implications of youthful population means there would be more productivity in the economy of such country. But it is regretful to announce that that do not in most cases found to be true. It only causes the rate of unemployment to increase.

 

[Stardom22]

Yes you are very true on that my friend. Most workplace's are dominated by the ageing population leaving the youth languishing in problems and unemployment in most parts of the world.

 

[IB D]

When the population of a country are predominantly youths, it provide a viable workforce for the country that can be productive for the country. A youthful population would attract foreign investment.

The youths are the future and can be saud to be more useful and efficient citizen. Even at their young age they come up with the best idea to work with.

 

[Niyi Briggs]

When the active popular of a country is high, the GDP of that country tends to grow because there would be many innovations that would lead to production of many goods and services.

When the population of a country are predominantly youths, it provide a viable workforce for the country that can be productive for the country. A youthful population would attract foreign investment.

This is theoretical postulation. This is why I don't believe most of what I was taught in economics during my school day. In Nigeria that blessed with youthful population, we are not feeling the effects of the change. The few old ages are controlling the economic, politics and social spheres. In fact, they influence the youths in all ramifications.

Are you not being over critical? Are Nigerian youths actually ready to take over? I strongly disagree. Our youths are more involved with social media than taking over leadership.

 

[Stardom22]

I think this is not applicable in Africa. The African continent is full of the youths and they are languishing in poverty due to the lack of employment across the continent.

I quite disagree with you. Nigeria youths are quite ready if given chance and support. Whatever vices you might notice on the youths are as result of the economic influence on them. What happen to the bill passed which enables youths to vie for political posts?. The old ones in Governance do not allow the implementation of the bills.

 

[Stardom22]

I agree with you on this one. The youths are able, and can even do better than the ageing population. The problem is that they are not given the chances to showcase their talents and abilities on the workplaces.
