You\u2019ll realize that we don\u2019t even have\u00a0coaches in lesser known Sports; it\u2019s been abandoned.\u00a0 We are also lacking physical instructors in certain areas of our sports discipline, which ought to be addressed. So this initiative is critical to boost the development of Sports in the country.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Agency has signed an MoU with the Local Government Service with an objective to absorb over 4000 unemployed youth under its graduates internship module.<\/p>\n<p>The MOU forms part of a series of agreements due to be signed between the YEA and other state-owned enterprises.<\/p>\n<p>The Chief Executive Officer of the YEA, Justin Kodua, speaking at the signing ceremony said the move will augment the staff strength of a district, municipal and metropolitan assemblies across the country.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 43 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sports News of Wednesday, 25 October 2017 Source: kasapafmonline.com 2017-10-25 File photo;
