There Are 37 Job Openings For Nigerians In UN - Amina Mohammed


The Nation reports that the deputy secretary-general of the UN at a cultural night organised by  Nigerians working at the United Nations Systems. 

She revealed that there were openings via the Junior Professional Officers’ (JPO) Programme, including internship for young graduates.


She said  Nigeria has the opportunity to sponsor youths through the programme to the UN with 37 positions  available for country; one from each state and the federal capital territory.

 JPOs who are sponsored  by  their own government have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in multilateral technical co-operation and also gain entry level positions within the UN system.
 Amina called on the older Nigerians to pave way for the youths and stop competing with them for opportunities.

conflict related areas in Nigeria. Tweeting on her meeting with the girls, Mohammed said: "Women

& girls are not only survivors but also crisis prevention agents. Inspiring chat with women leaders &

conflict affected girls #DSGinNG."
