Only 200 South East Youths Registered For Army Recruitment – Army Official
The Leader, Army Force Headquarters Recruitment Sensitisation Team, Anambra, Brig.-Gen. Chima Ekeator, says only 200 youths from the South-East have registered for the ongoing Army recruitment in the country.
Ekeator made the disclosure at a sensitisation organised for youth leaders and President-Generals (P-Gs) of different communities in the state.
He said there was a need to encourage youths in the various communities to participate in the exercise.
“This sensitisation is necessary because, according to records, only 200 persons have registered from the South-East, while in other states, not less than 4000 persons have registered.
“Increased youth participation will enhance the representation of the South-East in the force, ensuring that the region’s quota is fully utilised,” Ekeator said.
In a remark, the Anambra Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, gave assurance that the government would continue to sensitise the youths to show interest in the exercise.
