“This is a gathering of service-level collaborators on continuing engagement bureau projects, continuing engagement means that we are disrupting retirements.”
She further stated, “We are creating platforms and tools. We are creating spaces for older persons who wish to continue to engage and have the opportunities to do so. You know, older persons have a right to contribute in any area they so wish, and they also have a right to access the labour market after retirement, not necessarily that they are to be employed by the government.”NYSC Portal
Ms Emem explained. We have built our portal because we need all the data that we need to have, whether you retired from the federal civil service, state or local governments level. We are creating these platforms, and we are also identifying agencies that we need at this service level.”
The director-general noted that the programme “is really mobilising our older people because we want to show the wealth that Nigeria has, and our approach is we are positioning NSCC to create wealth.”JAMB Result
