PRESS RELEASE

BUHARI PRESIDENCY KICKS OFF JOB SCHEME FOR HALF A MILLION UNEMPLOYED GRADUATES

*200,000 Nigerians selected to start work as teachers, agric & health workers in their communities December 1

*Names of successful first batch participants to be posted on N-Power Portal

ALL IS NOW SET FOR THE deployment of 200,000 unemployed graduates selected in the first batch of the Buhari administration's plan to hire half a million Nigerians.

While the 200,000 have been selected about two weeks ago, their names have now been sent to state governments and the FCT who would deploy them to their specific programme assignments. The names would also be published this week on the N-Power internet portal, while the participants would start receiving SMS messages informing them of their selection as from Monday November 21, 2016.

State governments and the FCT are also encouraged to post the names of the successful first batch applicants in their local government areas while there would be further public announcements.

Between now and the end of the month, the states and the FCT would be engaged in deploying the graduates who would formally start working and earning their stipends on December 1, 2016.

Of the 200,000 first batch, 150,000 of them would teach, 30,000 would work in the Agric sector and 20,000 in Healthcare delivery covering the three specific programme assignments.

The N-Power Volunteer Corps is an expression of President Muhammadu Buhari’s commitment to invest in the human capital development of Nigerian citizens, particularly our young people. The N-Power programmme is also an innovative means to enhance ailing public services in the area of basic education and primary healthcare. Also in the agric sector, it is aimed at achieving self-sufficiency by giving our farmers relevant advisory services.

The Federal Government of Nigeria hereby congratulates all 200,000 successful applicants in the first batch, and they are encouraged to take this opportunity seriously by learning the skills that will brighten their future. They are also implored to serve their communities with commitment and dedication.

For those who have not been selected at this time, there is a waiting list based on the total number of applicants, and subsequent batches will absorb more of the qualified applicants.

All together, the N-Power will engage and train 500,000 young unemployed graduates. It is a paid volunteering programme of a 2-year duration that engages graduates in their immediate communities, where they will assist in improving the inadequacies in the education, health, and agriculture sectors.

The 500,000 graduates under the N-Power Corps programme will be trained in skills that will enable them exit after two years to economically viable job and business opportunities.

As part of the programme, the participnts would own tablets that will contain information necessary for their specific engagements, as well as information for their continuous training and developments.

Participants will be provided teaching, instructional, and advisory solutions in 4 main focus areas, and will be paid a monthly stipend of N30,000 during the programme. The 4 main focus areas are in basic education, agriculture extension services, public health and community education (civic and adult education).

Besides the N-Power programme for undergraduates, there are other schemes for non-graduates. These are: N-Power Knowledge, which would select 25,000 young Nigerians and N-Power Build 75,000, all of whom shall be trained and paid during the duration of the scheme.

The way you reason is something else. In your workplace, do all of you earn the same salaries? Do you have dispatch riders, security guards, cleaners, messengers, gate-keepers at all? Why don't your management offer them "good offers" all this while? Can you tell me categorically that all of you who are working in the office are better than them? Answer these questions in all sincerity and tell me if you couldn't see the hole in your argument.

Secondly, how many of those who are earning the so-called N18k minimum wage have resigned their jobs? Are you aware that more than 1million people actually applied for this job despite knowing that the salary is mere N30k according to you.

The problem is that most of you will be talking as if you've not been living in Nigeria or you were living in paradise before the advent of this administration.

Don't mind them bro..
I don't know who they are trying to deceive. Every body is now claiming "I was rich before Buhari came"

Some people here are rather pathetic. Hatred has so clouded their thinking tendencies, that they can't even differentiate between 23k and 30k. They wail about every step of the present Government as if they really care about the country, but would rather accept 'a massive failure' as their hero.

They come online to rant and complain about the job of N30,000 per month while some of them have not earned up to that amount in their lives. Yet majority of them are checking their phones every seconds, checking their emails every minutes, already bookmarked the portal in their phones just to find out if they have been shortlisted. Still, they come online to form big man. Pathetic people.
You just narrated what you doing! Pathetic man!

Are you aware that part of Donald Trump's campaign is that he is going to create jobs? He even accused Obama of taking all Americans jobs to China. When providing job is still a campaign issue in Almighty America at this time, commonsense should tell you that the global economy is not smiling at all.

My brother ignore those kind people Abeg. What Jonathan could not do with fat resources for years a government in recession had the guts to do and still planning on adding 300,000 more.

Can you imagine, they'll be provided with Tabs to work, train them for self sufficiency entreprenuerally and after 2 years they can stand on their own. This is the making of food stable agricultural billionaires in Nigeria especially for those in Agriculture.

This initiative will surely put food on many tables.

God Bless Nigeria

don't you know that 70% of nairalanders are teenagers? some of them are still battling with WAEC or JAMB or better still struggling in one tertiary institution or the other. they don't know what responsibility is all about. they are still being spoon fed by their parents so, they can come online to always spew rubbish. by their comments you will always know them.
