The Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, has warned Nigerians not to fall victims to fraudsters calling for the submission of Resume by unemployed youths to the ministry.
Recently an online portal sprung up with the aim of receiving Resume from employed youths and also at its Zonal offices around the country.
The minister confirmed his awareness of the plights of unemployed youths in country, but cautioned them 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.”
