Amina Mohammade: 37 UN Job Opportunities Open For Nigerians
Amina Mohammade,the UN deputy secretary-general, has said that there are 37 career openings for young Nigerians under the United Nations bureaucracy.
Amina disclosed this at a Cultural Night organised by Nigerians working at the United Nations Systems.
She said the openings are available via the Junior Professional Officers’ (JPO) Programme, including internship for young graduates.
According to her, Nigeria has the opportunity to sponsor its youth for UN careers through the JPO. But Nigeria has not seized the opportunity in a long while, she noted.
JPO is a programme for the young people to come and grow their career at the UN and it has 37 positions for Nigeria – one for each of the 36 States and the Federal Capital Territory.
At the cultural night, Amina asked older Nigerians to pave the way for the youth by creating leadership opportunities for them . She urged them to stop competing with the younger ones for employment opportunities.
