“To build the Enugu of our dream where crime and insecurity are not a major concern to citizens, we must make job creation a top priority.
“The first step in this direction is the compilation of a comprehensive database of unemployed graduates and youths in the state.
“The online database will capture their statistics for job opportunities and capacity building in the various sectors.
*It will be accessible to government agencies and departments, as well as the private sector which will play a central role in our planned economic growth and expansion.
“The success of this project is dependent on the participation of the target beneficiaries, our teeming unemployed graduates and youths. I therefore appeal to them to embrace the initiative and register at Enugu Employment Portal.”
