Recently, the Federal Government announced the registration of unemployed youths across Nigeria by the National Directorate of Employment (NDE).
The registration is across all the 36 states of the federation and here are the office address of NDE for the unemployed Nigerians to register.
About NDE
The National Directorate of Employment (NDE) was established in November 1986 with a core mandate of swiftly responding to the rising trend of unemployment among Nigerian youths.
Disclaimer:
We can’t guaranty the authenticity of the phone numbers of NDE listed in this compilation due to the attitude of government officials. Most times, the the phone numbers they release to the general public do not exist or ring out after several times. However, the office addresses have been confirmed.
One of the programmes of the NDE was to train the youths in skill acquisition for them to be employers of labour and be employable.
It is one of the parastatals of the Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment. In this post, we’ll share with you NDE offices across Nigeria, where you can make an inquiry about youth empowerment of the Federal Government.
Mission:
“To design and implement job creation programmes that will promote attitudinal change, employment generation, reduce poverty and enhance wealth generation.”
As you know, NDE is to supervise the 774, 000 jobs of the Special Public Works Department created by President Muhammadu Buhari.
