FG To Provide 3 Million Jobs In The Next 3 Years – Osinbajo

In a Facebook message posted on his wall this evening, VP Yemi Osinbajo said the Federal Government will provide 3 million jobs in the next three years starting from this year.

He said the jobs will be provided in the Technology, Wholesale & Retail, Construction and Agro-allied sectors of the Nigerian economy.

He also stated that this year alone, over 700,000 private sector jobs will be created, majority of which will be in the Agro-allied sector.

Read what he wrote after the cut..

President Muhammadu Buhari and I are accountable to the Nigerian people.

The central focus of President Buhari's administration is the creation of jobs. Every proposed policy begins with "how many jobs can this policy create?"

Today, I received the Strategic Framework and Implementation Plan on job creation and youth employment in Nigeria jointly packaged by the Job creation Unit of the Presidency, and the Nigerian Economic Summit Group, NESG.

Three million jobs would be created in the country within three years starting in 2016 especially in Technology, Wholesale & Retail, Construction and Agro-allied sectors of the Nigerian economy.

This year alone, over 700,000 private sector jobs will be created, majority of which will be in the Agro-allied sector.

This private sector-led job creation plan is different from the direct government jobs planned by the Buhari presidency which includes the 500,000 teaching jobs for unemployed graduates.

We are not unaware that this process of job creation is slow but President Muhammadu Buhari's administration is addressing the constraints of regulatory and institutional delays in the business sector.

The Job Creation Unit was constituted at the behest of President Buhari to initiate the job creation plan. The National Economic Summit Group, private sector players, validated the plan and will be working together with the government to implement the job creation plans.

Together, we will get this right.

Together, Nigeria will prevail.

Insurgency: UN, FG launch $1bn 2021 Humanitarian Plan for North East

The United Nations and the Federal Government along with development partners have launched the 2021 Humanitarian Response Plan for the insurgency-ravaged northeastern part of Nigeria. The Humanitarian Response Plan represents a collective vision for humanitarian action in 2021, and requests US$1 billion to enable partners provide critical services to the 6.4 million most vulnerable people – from a pool of 8.7 million people in need of some form of humanitarian assistance in 2021 in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states. According to the UN, a combination of escalating conflict, displacement, and disruption to and loss of livelihoods due to COVID-19 restrictions, could lead to hunger for millions of Nigerians living in the north-east. The plan, therefore, is based on assessed needs and the realistic capacity of the United Nations and non-governmental organization partners to implement required actions. Speaking at the event, Minister of Humanitarian Affairs, Disaster M...

TO ALL ENEMIES OF MMM

It's high time we call a spade a spade. The earlier the better for FG, House of Rep, CBN, all Banks and Bloggers to be careful and takeoff their dirty, stinky mouth from the rate at which they mouth-spoil MMM. As a matter of fact, the only reason why Nigerians most especially youths are not on the street demanding for Buhari's head is because of God sent schemes like MMM. If they don't know, let us tell them that WE (participant of MMM) can decide to stop patronizing banks (switching to bitcoin) if they (FG, CBN and local banks) will not see reasons to stop given us issues . Are they blind to see or deaf to hear the news of how a particular president in Africa encourages Youths to take up the opportunities. I believe they know MMM is the CHANGE we've been praying for long ago. If they don't backout, the banks and Nigeria economy will end up regretting because they will end up forcing us to create and promote a platform where we buy and sell in Bitcoin (The Hard ...
