The federal government of Nigeria will begin the
registration of unemployed Nigerians on
Wednesday, April 5

relevant details of any unemployed person

The federal government of Nigeria has announced that
registration of unemployed Nigerians will begin on
Wednesday, April 5.
TEANAIJA learnt that the announcement was made in
Abuja on Monday by the Deputy Director, Information
and Public Relations of the National Directorate of
Employment (NDE), Edmund Onwuliri.
Onwuliri said the registration will help the
government to collect up-to-date data of unemployed
Nigerians so as to be able to link job seekers up with
existing vacancies in the government, Vanguard
reports.
He said: “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 (EIT) on
Thursday, April 6.”
Onwuliri said the portal address is: www.jobsforall.ng
He said: “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.”
        Onwuliri said the the registration would go a long way
to eliminate the stressful process of recruitment by
employers, as well as employees in both the private
and public sectors.
Meanwhile, the World Bank, under its Growth and
Employment (GEM) project, has approved N756.3
million for disbursement to 81 young Nigerian
innovators who participated in the 2016 Aso Villa
Demo Day (AVDD).
The AVDD is one of the economic empowerment
initiatives of the present administration.
A document obtained from the World Bank-funded
GEM project on Monday in Abuja, showed that the
money would be disbursed to the beneficiaries in two
tranches after a grant signing ceremony earlier
scheduled for end of March.

Jose Mourinho explains who his one-finger celebration was aimed at

Jose Mourinho certainly didn’t hide his emotions after winning the Europa League with Manchester United. After his side triumphed over Ajax 2-0, the Portuguese boss celebrated wildly. Mourinho was seen embracing his son, whilst telling all of his players to hold up three fingers to signify their fairly underwhelming ‘treble’ of the Community Shield, EFL Cup and now the Europa League. But there was one action that nobody could quite understand. Immediately after the final whistle, Mourinho could be seen shaking his index finger rather passionately at the crowd. But what did it mean? Did he mean this was the first major trophy of his spell at United? Did it mean that he was still the Special One? Or was it a message to the victims of the Manchester attacks on Monday? Well, none of the above, actually. Mourinho has actually revealed exactly who his one-finger celebration was aimed at. Mourinho explains his celebration "It's for my family," Mourinho sa...

Awaiting the death and burial of recession

Judging by how confident the governor of the Cen­tral Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Mr Godwin Emefiele was as he made the announcement, we can only but agree that, all things being equal – like econ­omists the world over always posit – Nigeria will be out of recession latest by the third quarter of this year. Accord­ing to his well-heeled argu­ment, there was nowhere else for the nation’s beleaguered economy to head on account of the abiding positive indica­tors but out of recession. Who indeed would doubt him with inflation trending down­wards, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) improving and foreign exchange going to the real sector as and when needed? What is more! This opti­mism is no less supported by the recent release of the na­tion’s economic position by the National Bureau of Statis­tics (NBS). According to the release, though the nation’s GDP con­tracted by 0.52 per cent in the 1st Quarter of 2017 repre­senting the fifth consecutive quarter of contraction since the first quarter...
