The Senate has announced that it will scrutinise rogue labour export agencies and hear from the victims of the shortlisted candidates fleeced on the diaspora job programmes under the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection.
The developments come after nominated Senator Gloria Orwoba tabled a statement on the floor of the house on the shady deals behind the ring.
Additionally, Orwoba wrote to the National Employment Authority (NEA) to demand the refund of the funds that the various applicants are reported to have paid through the authority. ''I am writing to formally request for a full refund of medical fees paid by individuals who enrolled in the Bobasi Diaspora Jobs programme, a partnership between my office and the National Employment Authority that began in August 2024,'' Gloria's letter read in part.
