The Ogun State Government, on Thursday, finally launched the much publicized jobs portal for residents of the state, Igbere TV reports.

Igbere TV had reported that the state government said it was launching a dedicated website to ease job application and also to know the number of unemployed in the state.

Dignitaries who graced the occasion include the Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, and other top government functionaries.

Our correspondent who monitored the event reports that the State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, also announced the appointment of Jobberman’s co-founder, Mr Lekan Olude as Special Adviser on Job Creation and Youth Empowerment.

During the event, a two-hour test run was held where over 5,000 applications were received. 20 applicants were given automatic employment right there at the launch.

A statement issued by Governor Abiodun and made available to Igbere TV, on Friday, reads...

“Today(on Thursday) in Abeokuta, we officially launched the much anticipated Ogun Jobs Portal which is one of the initiatives of our government to take the good people of Ogun State out of unemployment while also bettering the career chances of the employed and business owners.

“The Portal is particularly suited to prepare our people to fit into appropriate sectors, while we currently revitalise all the sectors of our State's economy.

“It also provides a daily registration platform that avails both the unemployed and the employed, job and training opportunities, in a bid to continuously tackle Nigeria's 23.1 per cent unemployment rate.

“As a government, we are aware that this cannot be singlehandedly done but in cooperation with the private sector through a viable Public-Private Partnership (PPP).

“We are currently working on a Local Content Bill which would be sent to the State House of Assembly and on its return, ensure that investors look inward the State for human resources when they site their companies here.

“Also, Mr Lekan Olude, co-founder of Jobberman, a leading human resource management firm, has been appointed Special Adviser on Job Creation and Youth Empowerment to facilitate collaboration with employers and agencies.

“I am glad to announce that because of the staggering 5,000-candidate response we got when we earlier did a 2-hour test run, 20 job applicants were immediately given employment at the Launch.

“On this note, I implore the good people of Ogun State, especially the youth, to make the best use of this socio-economic initiative that is open to all, and shun crime and violence.”

It’s a welcome idea. Just replace the ghost workers that would be caught after the just concluded worker screening exercise with some of these genuine job seekers.

Igbo kwenu

And the jobs should be for Yoruba, especially those from Ogun first. Every application should have both parents origins on it, foreigners are now bearing Yoruba names just to take advantages of our system.

Way to go

I hope it will be for Yorubas only?

That jobs portal is a scam! No any elite person will apply through that portal! Smh! They keep deceiving the gullible masses! That place looks like Sokoto Town hall meeting Hall sha.

In the same way, foreign countries should do the same to our people abi ?

If they do it to us then it's racism, but we are allowed to do it to ourselves abi ?

See govt wey sabi..

No be only Ogunjobs. Jobs that have already being shared amongst their relatives. I just hope they won't say you have to buy a scratch card or pay some nonsense fee to access the site.

Sorry only for Ogun State citizen and south westerners at large. Are you an Omoluabi??

That's good.

Iddiot, if you are not proud of your state of origin, how is that my problem? Erasing our natural boundaries is just a ploy to steal from the weak regions, you know you don't love your brother let alone a foreigner. Igbos are foreigners to Yoruba so are fulani, the earlier you start to acknowledge that fact the better for you.

Nice

ALL NA CONNECTION

Nice

It's called protecting their people's interests, only the ignorants call it racism and it's already done all over the world and the fact that most of you bury your heads in the sands won't make it go away. Abia vs Anambra do it among themselves(though I don't want that kind of division among Yoruba, our jobs should be among Yoruba), and even the bible says we should not allow foreigners to rule over us and makes good references to how our very own should be given priorities. The only people who don't do that already are Yoruba and it's out of cowardice.
