Continuing
with its promise to create 200,000 jobs across the state, Edo State
Government has announced the commencement of a pilot scheme code-named
“Edo Jobs”, which can potentially register and create jobs for over
200,000 job seekers.
The
scheme will operate through a decentralised system, which will involve
the 18 local government areas of the state in the registration process.
Meanwhile,
the programme is set to encourage residents across all the local
governments in the state to register in their local government councils.
In
addition to this, individuals can also register at their Local
Government areas of residence. The government revealed that this would
broaden the programme’s reach and attempt to involve everyone in the
state.
A
statement by the Chief Press Secretary, Mr. John Mayaki said "it is to
be noted that registration is free and no fee is to be charged to
register, as the statewide operation will take effect from March 7, 2017. Registration will run until the 17th of April".
Jobs available are in the areas of Agriculture, revenue collection officers, traffic management and waste management.
The
government also advised participants who do not have interest in these
areas to still register and indicate their areas of interests as they
would be invited when such jobs are available.
