What Buhari ordered me to do on unemployment.

In a chat with newsmen, Mohammed revealed the discussion he had with President Muhammadu Buhari before he was appointed.
He said Buhari directed him to ensure that more Nigerians get job as soon as possible.
“I was posted to this place by the President with a clear mandate to make NDE work”, he said.
“The new NDE we are thinking of is not just an issue of creating jobs, providing employment, creation of wealth; we are thinking far ahead of that.
“What we are planning to do in the future is to export labour.”
“We are looking at the situation whereby no Nigerian will risk his or her life traveling across the desert and Mediterranean sea just because they are trying to get to Europe.
“They will definitely travel to Europe but they will do it in a more dignified manner.
“Our website will be activated for employers and applicants; we will be involved, get across to their various embassies and get an insurance for those being employed. It’s like government to government interaction.”
Mohammed vowed to make the NDE have a direct impact on rural areas, adding that the agency will liase with relevant government agencies in order to have a comprehension of all unemployed Nigerian youths.
“My administration will also reactive and upgrade the organisation’s facilities in all the states in order to improve the organisation’s performance”, the new NDE boss assured.
Recall that the Federal government, three weeks ago, opened a portal for the registration of unemployed Nigerians.
