The Federal Government has announced plans to begin the online registration of unemployed Nigerians from Wednesday April 5.
The Deputy Director, Information and Public Relations of the National Directorate of Employment (NDE), Edmund Onwuliri, said in a statement, in Abuja on Monday that the registration was aimed at collecting up to date data of the unemployed Nigerians.
He added that the exercise would enable the directorate to serve as a clearing house linking job seekers with existing vacancies in government agencies and the private sector.
“The online portal which goes live on Wednesday April 5, 2017, is designed to capture the relevant details of any unemployed person. It will equally serve as a job exchange portal that will link job seekers and employers.
“There will be a practical demonstration of the workings of the portal at the NDE stand at the ongoing 28th edition of the Enugu International Trade on Thursday”, he said giving the portal’s address as: www.jobsforall.ng.
“The directorate sees this initiative as a bold step toward deepening the effectiveness of its employment creation strategies and a critical input into the process of designing, implementing, monitoring and evaluating programmes and schemes,” he added.
