During his pre-election campaign, the ruling party, APC, had promised to pay N5,000 monthly allowance to unemployed youths in the country.
After opposition party PDP called on the ruling party to fulfil that promise, it was raised in the Senate and the motion. It was rejected along party lines with PDP members supporting it but the APC senators, who were in majority, rejected it.
Nigerian youths went on twitter to express their displeasure:
Not fulfilling the promise of free meals and N5,000 to poor families is pure kwaraption & we will not take it #Our5k http://pic.twitter.com/p8W2d0yrwf

Rather than demand for #our5k, demand for skill acquisition schemes and jobs,pls 5k is what some people use to make hair or pay for data

GEJ gave SURE-P and made many Nigerians CEO’s and entrepreneurs, But @MBuhari trashed it; and promised 5k; Now he doesn’t want to pay #Our5k — AdForumCo (@AdForumCo) November 5, 2015
There’s nothing like #Our5k. For government to pay, we need a list of unemployed people & Nigeria don’t have a database.

Can our darling APC just put PDP to shame by giving us #Our5k? — The Chairman (@ebuka_akara) November 5, 2015
If U are sensible you should know by now that #Our5k is not about PDP or APC It is about compelling this Government to fulfil their promise

Kudos to the @PDP senator who raised the #our5k motion. That is how you play mature politics. Offer your opponent the stage to self destruct — Kenechukwu (@Kin_sli) November 5, 2015
Dearest @APCNigeria Pay us #Our5k with 5months arrears ASAP!!! That’s N25,000. Debtors.

They said there was no subsidy In a quarter, they paid over 450B At this rate, we will get to 2Trillion. But let them pay #Our5K first — Ebube 5% (@akaebube) November 5, 2015
If we don’t demand for #Our5k That means any party can just wake up tomorrow and promise to bring snow to Umuahia and we vote for them.

Anyone who wants to demand for #Our5K should be allowed to… It was a promise! My own is don’t call it a scam until the FG reneges on it! — Omo GbajaBiamila (@OccupyNaija) November 6, 2015
