Gauteng Premier says more jobs will be launched for Gauteng youth
Lesufi has said that the provincial government will continue to recruit unemployed people every month until July next year.
Gauteng Premier Panyaza Lesufi has stayed true to his word of getting young people to be employed and this was seen through the thousands of appointment letters received.
Last week Thursday at the Orlando Stadium, scores of young people came out to receive the good news.
They applied for the jobs that were advertised on June 16 as part of the Gauteng government’s Nasi Ispani initiative.
The jobs include receptionists, drivers, artisans, cleaners, security managers, and social workers among others.
Speaking to the media recently, Lesufi has said that the provincial government will continue to recruit unemployed people every month until July next year.
He added that the Nasi Ispani programme has not yet reached its peak.
“Today is not about speeches; it is about doing. We want to show our enemies who oppose us in employing young people that you are wrong. People need jobs. They don’t care who you are. They just want to be employed. We are going to advertise 6 000 jobs for people to be data capturers. That is R8 000 per month to be a data capturer,” said Lesufi.
