20,000 employed in first 100 days of African Administration

March 25, 2012 - PRLog -- London, UK: 20,000 young people have been employed in the first 100 days of office by the Head of Osun State, Governor Rauf Aregbesola, it was announced at a conference which took place at the ultra-modern hall which was opened by her majesty, Queen Elizabeth II in February 2007. This election promise, the first ever of its kind by any African Federal Government, was put together by the Osun Youth Empowerment Scheme (OYES) scheme, designed to combat youth unemployment in the local area.

Governor Rauf Aregbesola's lecture on "The current Technological and Educational challenges and opportunities" explained the impact of free education that has been recently introduced in the African State. The availability of free school meals for infants in the primative years of formal education has meant that the Government has earmarked an £800,000 cash injection every month.

A spokesperson for the Leadership and Partnership Foundation (EIE) program who partners with various governments and supports the leadership teams of top institutions, commended such collaborative initiatives between universities and Heads of government.
