FG offers the families of the NIS recruitment victims automatic employment


The president ordered that immediate employment
be offered to injured victims who are still receiving
treatment in various hospitals across the nation.
Disclosing this after the Federal Executive Council
meeting that held this morning, Minister of Information
Labaran Maku said President Jonathan directed that one
of the three beneficiaries must be female. Today's FEC
meeting was devoted to the poorly conducted NIS
recruitment exercise.

President Jonathan also directed that three
employment slots be left open for the families of those
who died during the Saturday recruitment exercise
conducted by the Nigerian Immigration Service.. Continue

The President also ordered that the last ill-fated exercise
be cancelled and set up a new panel which would
conduct a fresh screening test for applicants. The Panel
is to be headed by the Chairman of the Federal Civil
Service Commission, Deaconess Joan Ayo and would
have as members, a rep from the Inspector General of
Police as well as the Heads of Immigration, Nigerian
Security and Civil Defence Corp, Nigerian Prison Service,
State Security Service and the Federal Road Safety
Commission.
The House of Reps has also summoned the Interior
Minister and the DG of NIS to appear before it to explain
the circumstances that led to the unfortunate incident at
recruitment exercise on Saturday.
