Social Welfare: FG Begins Recruitment Of 500,000 Graduates by Yem0350: 7:49pm On Jun 08, 2016 |
ABUJA - The Presidency, Wednesday, announced a
take off in the recruitment of 500,000 unemployed
graduates who would benefit from the N500 billion
social investment Programme of the All
Progressives Congress, APC, led federal
government.
A statement from the Office of the Vice President
by his media aide, Mr. Laolu Akande said that the
Buhari presidency will start taking applications via
online for positions in the 500,000 direct teacher
jobs scheme, through an internet portal named
npower.gov.ng.
It stated that applications were expected to start
coming in on June 12, as the portal would formally
be launched on Saturday, June 11.
The statement therefore asked young unemployed
Nigerians to visit the website and apply.
The statement further read thus: "It would be
recalled that President Muhammadu Buhari in his
May 29th Democracy Day broadcast to the nation
formally launched the unprecedented social
investment programmes already provided for
under the 2016 Appropriation by the
administration.
"The 500,000 Teacher Corps, nicknamed N-Power
Teach on the portal, is one of the three direct job
creation and training schemes Nigerians can start
applying for from Sunday, June 12.
"Others are N-Power Knowledge which will train
25,000 Nigerians in the area of technology, and N-
Power Build, which train another 75,000 in the
areas of building services, construction, utilities,
hospitality and catering, automotive vocations,
aluminium and gas services.
"All trainees would be paid for the duration of their
training.
"The N-Power Teacher Corps initiative which will
engage and train 500,000 young unemployed
graduates, is a paid volunteer programme of a 2-
year duration.
"Unemployed Nigerians selected and trained will
play teaching, instructional, and advisory roles in
primary, and secondary schools, agricultural
extension systems across the country, public health
and community education-covering civic and adult
education.
"Besides their monthly take home pay estimated at
about N23,000, the selected 500,000 graduates will
also get computer devices that will contain
information necessary for their specific
engagement, as well as information for their
continuous training and development. They get to
keep the devices even after exiting from the
programme.
"According to the plan of the Buhari administration,
the N-Power Teacher Corps programme is an
invaluable opportunity for young Nigerians to make
immense economic and social contributions to the
nation while developing their skills. It will also help
to address the problems of inadequate teachers in
public schools. |

[color=#006600][/color] Two years contract job with monthly take home pay estimated at about N23,000, after 2 years what is going to happen to 500000 Nigerian youths? We need stable and continuous income to be productive and contribute meaningfully to the national development. My opinion |
