The Federal Government has started the payment of N30,000 monthly stipends for beneficiaries of the N-Power scheme, the job creation programme of the President Muhammadu Buhari administration.


Laolu Akande, the senior special assistant, media and publicity, office of the vice-president, disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Friday, December 30, stating that: “all successfully verified beneficiaries who have provided bank accounts are being processed for payment’’.

According to him “some beneficiaries will receive their first stipends on December 30.’’

Akande said the process of payment would continue after the New Year public holiday, urging beneficiaries of subsequent batch of the scheme to take their virtual training seriously.

He also encouraged states who had yet to conclude the physical verification process to do so, “as that would enable the N-Power beneficiaries in those states to draw from its benefits & empowerment offers.’’

The N-Power programme is designed to engage the massive numbers of unemployed Nigerian graduates from tertiary institutions across the country.

The unemployed graduates selected for the N-POWER programme are given assignments that will help to address issues in schools, hospitals and other areas in communities across the country.

A total of 150,000 out of the 200,000 selected in the first phase of the scheme would be deployed as support teachers to help address shortage of teachers in schools at the basic and secondary levels.

Another 30, 000 graduates would work as extension workers in various communities which will expectedly aid the government’s diversification agenda.

Meanwhile, the federal government has confirmed the release of N25billion funds for the payment of N5,000 monthly stipends to unemployed graduates.

The Minister of State for Budget and National Planning Zainab Ahmed said, the funds were for the social intervention programmes of the administration and she added that an additional N40billion would also soon be released to the initial N25billion.

hmm.. not again

God bless PMB. God bless Nigeria

Buhari you be real man
.

Don't ever be distracted by any forces.

Truly, you belong to everybody and you belong to No one.

If 30k stipend small like that , Na in be say my neighbour in law pikin wey dey collect 12k for teaching job since two years now go dey pray for a particular God that brought Buhari to keep him alive.

We should learn how to appreciate.

This FG government just want the youth to gain 2years experience in the Npower and will be used as an instrument of change in all sectors. Do you know what it means to have degree coupled with 2years experience? If you don't research about what led to China growth as one of the top world economy, then, you need to do that. China was one of the poorest countries in the world but now they are enjoying the dividend of human capital development gained from other countries through internships and other technological advancement.

Whether 5k or 30k, money is money.
Two years in power is too short to crucify this government.

HMMM

People(FG) dey lie shaa. Which kind lie be dis on so.... I dab for fg... Lets wait n see the next lie they will come up with
