LAGOS State government said it has established registration centres across the state for job seekers or people to register their details.
The govt, through its Ministry of Wealth Creation and Employment, disclosed that the centres spread across the state are five in number and are located at the Epe Local Government Secretariat, Ita Marun; Eti-Osa LG Secretariat, Igbo Efon, Lekki; Ikorodu LG Secretariat, opposite General Hospital; Ojo LG Secretariat, Olojo Drive and Oshodi-Isolo LG Secretariat, Oyetayo Street, Bolade.
The Lagos State Commissioner for Wealth Creation and Employment, Mrs Yetunde Arobieke, said the state government would reposition the registration centres to meet internationally accepted standards.
Arobieke said the reason for the creation of the centres was to capture all the unemployed people in the state who desired to be gainfully employed or wished to become entrepreneurs.
She also added that the job centres were designed to take care of the job needs of the people, while also filling the skill gaps between the employers of labour and job seekers.
