The job was secured by the timely interventions of the Member of Parliament (MP) for the area, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa.
It follows the expiration of the NABCO programme for beneficiaries from today, 1 September 2022, with all beneficiaries expected to vacate their post to that effect.
Mr Ablakwa noted to the effect of the expiration that, he negotiated with management of the Chinese firm Sinostone Bioethanol Manufacturing Limited (SBML), where he successfully secured the jobs.

The finance minister Ken Ofori-Atta on Monday, July 25, 2022, announced that the Nation Builders Corps (NABCo) programme is expected to end on Thursday, September 1, 2022.
He said, “Mr Speaker, our iconic National Builders Corps (NABCO) programme, which was initially to run for three years and extended for an additional year, will be completed by 1 September 2022. The Programme- which engaged 100,000 young graduates, has prepared thousands of them for the world of work.
So far, we have invested approximately GHC2.2 billion,” he said when presenting the mid-year budget review in Parliament.
The Minister admonished the trainees of the programme to take advantage of the government’s YouStart initiative.
“As they exit, the current cohort on the programme are encouraged to take advantage of the YouStart initiative and other existing programmes in our drive to Build an Entrepreneurial Nation.
“Government’s policy is to support dynamic young entrepreneurs access training and funds to build their businesses and become a significant pool of job providers for their fellow young people,” Ofori-Atta added.
