Gov’t has fulfilled promise by creating 50,000 jobs – Jagdeo

The People’s Progressive Party/Civic (PPP/C) government has fulfilled its promise of providing 50,000 jobs during its present term, even though it was seen by some as a “pipe dream.” 

This was the assertion of Vice President, Bharrat Jagdeo on September 29th during his feature address at the commissioning of the West Central Mall at Groenveldt, Leonora, West Coast Demerara. 

“From the days of unemployment, we said we want to create 50,000 jobs in the new term… More than 50,000 people are working more now since we got back into office and that’s a massive number,” Jagdeo declared.
