He said this while inaugurating the Inter-Ministerial Committee on Extended Special Public Works Across the 774 Local Government Areas of the Federation on Wednesday.
Speaking to the committee set up to strategize for the implementation of the job creation, Keyamo noted that the pilot scheme was approved to be implemented in five local government areas in eight states of Adamawa, Borno, Ebonyi, Edo, Ekiti , Jigawa, Katsina and Kwara.
When asked if the recruitment process won’t be hijacked by politicians, Kayamo assured that it won’t happen, adding that the jobs were not meant for either APC or PDP members.
He explained that “this is not for PDP or APC, I assure you it will not happen.
I will leave this job if they want to insist that it will happen. Mr. President is targeting ordinary Nigerians who are neither PDP, APC, nor just anything. They just want to get jobs, they just want to feed their family.
“This is not a time for us to empower our followers as politicians. We are going to dig deep, it is one of the recommendations you are going to make, that is why you are here.” Vanguard quoted him as saying.

Recall that Buhari had on April 6, approved the engagement of 774, 000 Nigerians on the Special Public Works programme in the country.
The approval was given in a bid to tackle the effect of COVID-19 across the country.

I pray dey dnt hijack it abeg,cos I registered. I need me a job.
ReplyDeleteI thought I could get a stay at home job like virtual assistant and d rest....nothing yet.
I agree whatever job helps, even if temporary, it is a step in the right direction and at this time every little helps. And who knows it can be expanded to include other jobs. At least he is doing something to help, what other cabinet members have fought for the good of the people or have their interests in mind. He has never left the core of who he his...being inside is the best way he can help the masses, that is the kind of person he his. I wish him well.
DeleteMtchewwwwwwww.

DeleteYimu. Keyamo of all people, a man whose belly is his god. To think this is the same Festus that was anti-government couple of years back. Anyway, tell that to the birds. As if they will really provide the jobs for the masses. APC being making audio promises since 1900. Like PDP like APC...

This one looks like he is committed to, may it happen. People need it.
DeleteKeyamo that speaks from both sides of his mouth
DeleteLet the negative comments begin to pour in.
ReplyDeleteI have a positive one. I have been studying this man for a long time. Take it or leave it, he is one of the hardest working man in this administration and he still carries along his core values despite all the criticism. He is determined and I look forward to the difference he will make in the few years left in this government.
DeleteWhen we see people trying for us, we should applaud them not diss them.
If i hear!!!!!
