Jonathan's Offer Of Automatic Employment For Injured Immigration Job Seekers; Applicants Besiege National Hospital, Saying, ‘We Were Injured Too!

Job seekers who are desperate to secure a job in Nigeria are moving to take advantage of the offer of automatic employment to job seekers who got injured in the recruitment exercise of the Nigeria Immigration Service last Saturday.

President Goodluck Jonathan offered automatic employment tickets to injured applicants during the recent recruitment exercise of the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS).

Less than 24 hours after the announcement, about 200 applicants have approached the National Hospital, Abuja, seeking to be registered as beneficiaries in the presidential largesse. A source close to the hospital said that the applicants had been coming in trickles, claiming that they had treated themselves at certain private hospitals after the stampede.
