NSITF will not succumb to blackmail, says Olejeme
Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund, NSITF, board chairman, Dr. Ngozi Olejeme?Thursday?said she is repositioning the agency in line with the provision of the Act establishing it.
A statement by the agency said Dr. Olejeme is restructuring the organization and also re-engineering its current workforce to reflect the objective of the Scheme.
The statement hinted that the efforts to reposition NSITF was in pursuance of the transformation agenda of President Goodluck Jonathan and that
no stone will be left unturned to ensure that the agency measures up to global standards.
She also affirmed that the agency will not succumb to blackmail and will not be distracted in its efforts to achieve its core mandate.
?NSITF applies very strict employment policy, which has earned accolodes from several organizations particularly by the Federal Character Commission. The federal character commission recently
adjudged NSITF as one of the most transparent and most equitable government agencies in Nigeria?.
Meanwhile, the attention of the NSITF has been drawn to the fraudulent activities of some scammers using the internet and other social media
platforms to swindle innocent job seekers, with promises of fake job vacancies in the agency.
NSITF in a statement frowned at this act and dissociates itself from the activities of the scammers.
The agency also warned the public to disregard individuals requesting for monies or any form of gratification in exchange for job opportunities in the agency, insisting that it employs strictly based on competence.

Anioma youths urge support for Olejeme
Delta North political leadership came under the searchlight of Anioma youths?Sunday?and they did not fail in telling the elders how to make progress in the land. Indeed, they told the elders that they have looked round the area and seen there was only one person that could promote the people?s welfare and take the state to greater heights.
?We believe Dr. Ngozi Olejeme?s experience in the public and private sector and her record in the public service have sufficiently placed her in a vantage position to provide desirable leadership in the state? the youths said.
The youths in a statement issued in Asaba promised to campaign hard across the length and breadth of the state, noting that most of the rumoured contestants for the governorship seat have nothing to offer the area.
Signed by the President General, Anioma Youth Leaders Movement, Mrs. Chinelo Elue, the statement extolled the charming qualities of Dr. Olejeme.
