 PRESS RELEASE TROOPS OF OPERATION HADIN KAI  THWART TERRORIST INFILTRATION AT BITTA, DEAL ANOTHER DECISIVE BLOW TO ISWAP  NOTORIOUS FIGHTERS Troops of the Joint Task Force (North East) Operation HADIN KAI (OPHK) have once again demonstrated another superior combat readiness and tactical dominance by successfully thwarted a terrorist infiltration attempt at Bitta in Sector 1. The failed attack occurred  when ISWAP terrorists, in a desperate bid to regain the initiative after recent battlefield setbacks, attempted to infiltrate the troops location. Unknown to the terrorists, vigilant OPHK troops had anticipated the move and deliberately prepared a decisive offensive-defensive battle plan.  As the terrorists advanced towards the position, the troops launched coordinated spoiling actions that effectively disrupted the assault formation while simultaneously manoeuvring to cut off the terrorists’ withdrawal routes.

     The Federal Ministry of Labour and Employment, has agreed to collaborate with the National Population Commission on the Special Public Works Initiatives, with the aim of engaging the nation’s teeming youthful population, for Sustainable National Development.
The Honourable Minister of State, Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo, SAN, disclosed this while responding to a request by the Chairman of National Population Commission, Dr. Tayo Oyetunji, for the engagement of participants of the Public Works Programme as Notifiers of the Commission.
Keyamo said the request was in tandem with the directive of President Muhammadu Buhari for collaboration of the programme with relevant Government agencies with local content input.
Speaking earlier, the Chairman of the National Population Commission, Dr. Tayo Oyetunji who was on a courtesy call to the Minister, said the commission was seeking the assistance of the Minister for the posting of some of those to be engaged in the Special Public Works Programme, to serve as Notifiers under the Civil Registration Programme in their respective Local Government Areas.
He said that, the National Population Commission has the constitutional mandate to establish and maintain a universal birth and death registration programme throughout the country.
He added that, in line with its mandate, the Commission had established not less than five registration centers each in the 774 Local Government Areas of the country. These Centers he said, are responsible for registering births and deaths within their domain.
He therefore sought the approval of the Honourable Minister for the posting of at least 10 persons to each of the LGA Offices of the Commission to serve as Notifiers under the birth and death registration programme for the duration of the Special Public Works Programme.
According to him, the initiative was in tandem with the Nigeria Road Map on Harnessing Demographic Dividend, through investment in youths which was launched by the Vice-President on 7th July 2017.
He noted that, just like the Special Public Works in Rural Area Programme, the initiative for harnessing the demographic dividend which is being coordinated by the Commission is also aimed at investing in and engaging the teeming youthful population for sustainable National development.
Keyamo subsequently approved the request of the National Population Commission for 10 operatives of the programme to be posted to the Commission’s Local Government Offices across the Federation.
He promised that the names of Selection Committee Members with the responsibility of screening participants across the Local Government Areas would soon be released.
