Mr Johnson Avuletey, the Deputy Volta Regional Minister, said the Nation Builders Corps (NaBCo) was preparing thousands of beneficiaries for the job market and must be taken seriously.
He said though the initiative did not guarantee permanent employment, it was providing skills needed for prospective engagement of personnel in the public and private sectors.
Mr Avuletey said this at a durbar to climax the first anniversary of NaBCo at the forecourt of the Ho Central Market on the theme; "Investing in Youth, Securing our Future through Work, Opportunities and Nation Building."
