He called on eligible persons, especially youths, to take full advantage of the opportunity in order to contribute their quotas to the system.
The Commissioner reiterated that the commission provided equal opportunity to all persons as various categories would be enlisted in the recruitment exercise.
He said the committee, set up at the local government levels to supervise the recruitment process, will commence sittings from Nov. 20, 2022.

Speaking also, State Director of NOA, Alhaji Maude Danchadi, said staff in all the 23 local government areas of the state were mobilized to ensure success of the exercise.
Danchadi assured that the NOA will participate in more mobilization and sensitization exercises to ensure that the coming census becomes a success.
