President Bola Tinubu has launched the handbook for the Expatriate Employment Levy Management System (EELMS) Programme aimed at giving guidelines for employment of Nigerians and expatriates in the country.

The President, however, said that the implementation should not constitute a bottleneck or hindrance to the much needed foreign investment in the country.

The programme is established to oversee expatriate employment in the country, necessitating employers to pay a levy for hiring expatriates.

Through this levy, the government aims to find equilibrium between leveraging international expertise and nurturing indigenous talent in Nigeria’s job market.
