Kogi State Governor Captain Idris Wada
says his administration will partner with the National Directorate of
Employment to create jobs for the youths in the state.
The governor said this when the NDE
state coordinator, Malam Abudlkari Oba Saadu, led management staff on a
courtesy visit to the government house.
He said unemployment was one of the
major causes of anti-social and criminal tendencies among youths, adding
that government was collaborating with NDE which has over 25 years
experience in the area of job creation.
Earlier, the cordinator said they were at the governor’s office to present a proposal for creating 5,000 jobs to the government.
He outlined the methodologies developed
by the NDE to create the 5,000 jobs, including skills acquisition,
enterprise creation, special public/labour based approach programme,
rural employment promotion, training of women and provision of
resettlement equipment/loan to graduate trainees.
