MINISTER OF LABOUR,, CHRIS NGIGE WARNS THE PUBLIC AGAINST SENDING CV's  

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris
Ngige, has distanced the ministry from an online
report calling for the submission of Curriculum
Vitae (CV) by unemployed youths to the ministry.
Report surfaced recently asking young Nigerians
to submit application forms for employment at
the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment
Headquarters and its Zonal offices around the
country.
However, Ngige while reacting to the report said
though he was aware of the plights of
unemployed youths in country, they should be
careful not to fall into the hands of fraudsters.
A statement signed by the Deputy Director of
Press in the Ministry, Samuel Olowookere, quoted
Dr Ngige thus:
“The general public is hereby advised to
disregard this false directive as it did not
emanate from the Federal Government through
the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment.
“It has perfected plans for massive job creation
through well thought out programmes such as
Graduate Internship Scheme (GIS), among
others. The general public would be informed in
due course when any of these programmes/
scheme would be rolled out.”
“In view of the apprehension the above false
information has generated it is pertinent to point
out that the administration of President
Muhammadu Buhari GCFR, is committed to the
creation of decent employment opportunities for
teeming unemployed Nigerians and has perfected
plans for massive job creation through well
thought out programmes such as Graduate
Teachers Conversion Programme, Graduate
Internship Scheme (GIS), Vocational Skills
Acquisition and Upgrading, Conditional Cash
Transfers (CCT) for the vulnerable persons
including market women.
“The general Public will be informed in due
course when any of these programmes/scheme
is being rolled out.
