The District Chief Executive for the Bulisa South, Daniel Kwame Gariba is not happy that his district could not exhaust all the available job opportunities under the Nation Builders Corp, as the district could not raise enough graduates to fill all 350 employment places.
Out of the 350 NABCO job spaces, only 106 graduates turned up to be recruited for various modules, leaving 244 NABCO spaces in the District.
Speaking at the Third Ordinary Session of the Builsa South District Assembly, Daniel Kwame Gariba, explained that, the District got its fair share of job opportunities ranging from limited teachers recruitment, non-teaching recruitment, youth employment, forestry guards and NABCO.
“…our district has benefited from job opportunities of about 500 within the two years of the Nana Addo led government. It is important to add that, whilst our district was billed to recruit about 350 NABCO personnel, we had just 106 Personnel recruited, which fell short of the required number needed due to non-availability of excess graduates to fill the vacancies.” He explained.
Whiles seeking for more graduates to turn up and file for some of the available vacancies, Hon. Gariba encouraged farmers in the district to embrace the new programme under agriculture, captioned “Rearing for Food and Jobs” which government will be undertaking next year.
“I believe our farmers will fully take advantage of this policy by going into full time rearing of animals. This is because, as a district, we wish to pitch our attention more on the rearing of guinea fowls. As a result; we are going to create an award category under guinea fowl rearing come the next Farmers day. I, therefore, encourage all farmers and non-farmers to take advantage of this intervention.” He said.
