The Edo state government has registered over 63,000 employed persons
into its data base since it started the registration of unemployed persons.
The Managing Director ICT, Lambert
Ugorji, who disclosed this in an interview with newsmen in Benin City, said the
idea behind the registration was to have a clear picture of the skills set in
Edo state to enable the government determine those who requires training and
those who don’t.
According to him, the move is in
efforts towards actualising the campaign promise of the Governor, Godwin
Obaseki, to create 200,000 jobs in four years.
He expressed optimism that the
governor would reach the said goal within the slated time frame, as the
data base presents various opportunities for individuals to be hired.
